In this world, there was a popular game where everyone could be who they dreamed of being in real life. But this game dimension had its own problems, as powerful bosses would appear periodically, and few were prepared to fight a monster that was significantly higher in level than the players. People preferred to save their lives so as not to lose good equipment and skills.
While everyone was running away in fear, a man appeared who didn't care about self-preservation. The young hero never worried about his life, which is why he often won battles. Many considered him crazy, as the young man had acquired an interesting reputation. Jake Romero was often the first to defeat bosses and received good resources. While it was just a game for everyone else, the boy fought every monster until his death.
Jake was on the brink of death many times, but he managed to survive dangerous battles. It was not for nothing that the players thought Romero was crazy, because he walked towards certain death with burning eyes. It wasn't for nothing that elite monsters frightened everyone around them with their menacing appearance alone. But the hero had such good skills that the monsters were almost not scary to him.
Only Jake was able to deal with an enemy that could kill a player with one blow. The young man was not used to giving up in the face of difficulties, because in reality his life was no better. So some monsters couldn't scare him, despite the huge difference in skills. Other players preferred to watch from the sidelines as some guy fought the boss.
Of course, the hero was not omnipotent and also periodically received serious injuries. But even this did not force Romero to flee, because victory was very close. That's why Jake silently drank the healing potions, so he could continue the fight. He understood that the battle could not be prolonged, since he did not have much health left. Romero was still in the early stages, so he was doing very little damage to his opponent.
Meanwhile, for him, any blow from the monster could be fatal if it hit him directly. Jake was well aware of his capabilities as he plunged headlong into such a difficult battle. The guy didn't ask any of the players for help, so it was several times more difficult for him. But in his life, Romero was used to relying only on himself, and did not want to change this rule.
Since he did not have enough strength to win, the young man resorted to cunning and traps. The monster did not have great intelligence, so it soon fell into that very deadly chain. For Jake, this was the signal for the final attack, as he could not miss such a chance. In this situation, the monster no longer had a chance to win, as he had missed all the opportunities.
None of the players believed that one guy alone could cope with such a monster, no matter how much people doubted him. Jake soon dealt the enemy a decisive blow. He was merciless towards the one who had just tried to kill him in return. This is how Romero planned to deal with every enemy who dared to stand in his way.
At that moment, the hero did not yet know that his exploits would become known throughout the entire game server. Many people thought that this famous player was the son of some very rich parents. But the truth was that the Romero family was barely making ends meet, as they lived in poverty, and Jake himself could soon die from an incurable genetic disease.
That's why the boy escaped into the game world, where he could do absolutely whatever he wanted. In life, the young man had to stay at home all the time, since the streets were too dangerous. But everything changed when scientists discovered another dimension in a fallen meteorite. Based on this world, they created a game where everyone could make all their wishes come true.
The coolest thing was that some of the skills from the game could be transferred to real life. And so it happened that the hero, on top of everything else, accidentally ended up in a chat that consisted entirely of monsters. At first, the guy didn't believe the information that the creatures wrote about amazing rewards. But after Jake actually found a good relic, all his doubts were dispelled.
Romero tried to keep his presence in the chat under wraps in order to continue receiving useful information. The creatures boldly shared information about their unusual skills with each other in secret places, and only Jake could now receive all the awards, since he read every word in that conversation. All his life, the hero had wanted to become stronger to provide for his family, and he finally got his chance.
His illness had developed too early, and his relatives did not have enough funds for treatment. None of them wanted to abandon their older brother, who had always been kind and caring. The parents grieved most for their son, because they could not help him recover. The last ampoule of healing became the starting point for the hero who wanted to reach heights.
He planned to get new data from the monster chat in order to become stronger. This game quickly became a second life for the young man, who had unexpectedly received it from his girlfriend. As a thank you for Ila's efforts, Jake was going to achieve great heights. What pleased the young man most was that he received very good resources for leveling up from the monster.
Jake had a rough idea of how he needed to behave in the future to become the best. Unlike the other players, Romero received his assistant, Leika, for revealing the secret location. The girl looked like a little fairy and knew the answers to many of the hero's questions regarding the game. But the guy wasn't going to abuse Leika's help, in order to level the playing field a little for the other players.
He simply asked his assistant to conceal his name and clothing, so that others would have fewer questions. It was Leika who told the hero how this world was arranged. That it was a game world made only for people. That it had a huge number of classes, both clothing and weapons, and each differed in strength. That each monster could be used to obtain some kind of reward, which would greatly help in subsequent development.
The stronger the monster, the higher the reward the player received after killing it. Jake was the first to destroy a powerful spider boss, which is how he became famous throughout the entire game server.
