"Alright let's continue with your fighting techniques, your enemies won't let you rest when your weary." Kimura struck quickly then Raph dodged to the side and began to fight. Stances remember them well, kimura kept coming at him while Raph adjusted. Kimura began to explain how the close tonfa hand to hand techniques worked, then he finally showed him to use utilize the <tonfa dash> skill. It was rather tough but Raph got the hang of it quickly. Then Raph received a notification.
"Master it seems I'm going to have to log off in a little bt I will be back later today."
"No Problem don't forget to train a bit before you return your body should be much better now with medicine you received."
"Ok." Raph replied man npcs are pretty funny in this game for sure.
Robert logged out and removed his helmet. He woke up feeling really good today probably the best he had in many days. He actually had not trouble removing the VR equipment the doctor was next to him checking his vitals and was astounded. "How is this possible your muscles are regenerating at a good rate and there seems to be no signs of muscle degradation! You actually seem extremely healthy!"
All day they ran tests on Robert and showed absolutely nothing wrong with him, they had labeled it a miracle and began to look at his treatment. Robert contacted his friends and family to tell them the good news the only person he couldn't get a hold of was his older brother.
After all the good news Robert sat down to eat and remembered the game.... No way it's just a coincidence. Then unconsciously began to meditate he felt the energy around him swell up then immediately stopped. No way... no way... no way....
What was this vodoo? He began to meditate again he felt the energy inside him changing. Then after an hour he got a bit tired so he decided to stop. It would be weird if got super tired just sitting down he would become a medical mystery.
The doctor came into his room and said. "well there appears to be nothing wrong with you we can actually discharge you back home now. Pack up your things sign some papers and go home before whatever luck you just got turns around."
"Thanks for everything doc." Robert went and said his goodbyes, then got his things and left a little bit later returning to a home he hadn't been to in a long time.
He went got to the house and his father, mother, and sisters were all there. They were thrilled to have him back, later his friends arrived, they were super excited as they had good feast of food. Finally, when it was all over his family went to bed and he sat in his room not believing this day.
Then he received a call from his brother as he answered his phone a shout sounded on the other side of the phone. "What the hell is going on!?!? You got better, by the way this game is way weird man. I think it might actually be real."
"Roger roger, I think that's how I got better. Anyways do you think you've gotten way stronger like me?"
"Yeah actually I'm actually doing some accounting for restaurant and the owner seems very happy he keeps calling me his first disciple or something."
"Yeah I also have a teacher in game I wonder what it's all about."
"Anyways congrats on getting better man have a good summer. I'll talk to you once I am back in the game don't forget to add me this time."
"Will do."
With that he finished. Set up the VR equipment and logged back into the game.
When he arrived, his Master was sitting with nine other people they seemed to be looking a little bit down.
"Nobody signed up for my cultivation group either I guess we are not the popular ones for sure."
The rest of the group sighed. "at least you seem to have gotten someone to join up on you end you might be able to get some nice rewards from that Kimura." another one said.
Raph approached the group. "Master what seems to be going on?"
Kimura turned around with a smile, "Well it seems that we will have to begin then, see you guys."
The group grumbled as they got up looking very sad. One of the ladies that seemed somewhere around twenty-five moved towards Raph, "Hello young expert, I was wondering if anyone in your sect would like to learn my Painters Star Spiritual cultivation technique?" As soon as she asked the rest of the masters stopped.
"My sect? I don't have one...."
"Hmmm how about family or friends that would enjoy it?"
"Well I do have two little sisters …."
The beautiful lady smiled touched his arm, "Great I just your information then I'll send the VR set and the disks to your house with the instructions to join."
<Ding you have received a quest>
Join the Spiritual Star
Difficulty: Z
Have someone join the Painters Star Spiritual cultivation group
Reward: Second Realm Spirit Pill
Do you accept? Y/N
What an out of game quest how weird but sure why not. "Yes"
Then he almost got trampled by the rest of the group that was here
"Wait I was here first"
"No, I was"
"No, me"
Ding... ding...ding...ding quest notification kept popping up!!!!
A heated battle began between the teachers.... by the end he had ten new quests with filled his quest log which seemed to be the maximum amount. By the end the teachers all left very satisfied. Raph told kimura the reward for each of new students he got was a second stage spirit pill.
"Those are very nice rewards I would suggest you get those people as soon as possible it will help you greatly improve your cultivation."
"Yes master, but the VR sets won't be arriving until tomorrow at the earliest." Kimura just smiled and then the VR set gave him a warning someone was trying to contact him outside the game.
"I'll see you later tonight young expert." Kimura said.
Then Robert logged of to see his father. "Robby," it was what his dad called him to drive his mom nuts it was a mix between Bobby and Robert. "There is a package for you downstairs."
Robert ran down quickly and found 10 VR sets ready to go downstairs his lip twitched when he saw them. His father and mother were right behind him before they jumped to any conclusions he said, "Its a promotional product from a company I applied to dealing with VR games they want me to invite 10 people so they can try to beta test the game."
His mother asked him, "When did you join a company? You just got out of the hospital."
"Well before I came home I looked into an internship that would help me once I got out of high school. So, I decided to this as a summer job."
His father smiled, "It looks like you are starting to think about our future that's great. Can we help you?" He owned his own company here in town and loved that his son was looking past his time being sick. He actually wanted him to ease back into things and a VR project seemed to be a great way to do it.
"Well I wouldn't mind doing it." His mother stated she had actually been a pretty hardcore gamer before she met his father and didn't mind playing betas of new VR games.
"I'm not going to be that busy for a while either." his father stated, most of the work had been taken care of in the company and it ran pretty smoothly even without him. He just had to show up two or three times a week to look over personnel and other matters.
"I'm guessing both of you will want to join also." He looked up the stairs spotting his two little sisters. Robert handed out the gear with the instruction on what to do and join the specific masters. Then he made some calls and got his four friends to join.
Finally, he went to the hospital, he saw two people sitting on a bench. One was an extremely good looking boy with blond hair and blue eyes he was staring into his phone playing a game. The other was a Frail skinny looking girl with dark skin and brown curly hair staring into the sky. "I see you managed to sneak out again."
"Well, well, well if it isn't the miracle boy. What brings you to our neck of the woods." Said the Frail girl. The boy didn't even look up from his game.
"Nothing much I got these VR sets from a company, they wanted some people to beta test a game, what do you say Jim, Sadie want to try them out"
As soon as he said that Jim suddenly got up and picked up the VR gear and game and left back to the hospital. Robert was kind of stunned, Sadie just sighed.
Sadie looked at him, "Great thanks for that, I never knew what was so good about games anyways." Sadie had been an athlete her whole life until she got sick. They had treated her but her sickness kept coming back it was some type of cancer.
"Well it is a Martial Arts VR game and its very realistic you feel as if you could move freely you should try it out. Jim will most likely be playing anyways. You should give it a try."
She just looked at him with a type of glare, well I'm in trouble. "Help me carry it back I can't do too much after today I'm pretty tired."
He did just that, then told her the instructions and what to choose once she entered the game and did the same with Jim.
Finally, on his way back home he received a notification and a window popped up in front of him. What the hell?
