Chapter 1 Lucian Silva! - Into A New World! (New Version!)
Darkness submerged the room. Only the faint moonlight existed to give a dim silver light inside a boy's small room as he slept in the single bed.
His desk became illuminated by the light flashing on his phone. He had set an alarm for 11:50pm to catch the midnight launch. However, the alert tone and vibration continued, waiting for him to awaken.
*Brrr Brrr*
There was a loud crash as the boy with long silvery blonde hair fell from his bed. He reached out to shut off the noise and overstretched.
"Fuck! I only slept an hour shut-up!"
His hand grabbed the phone, slamming it into the wall in anger. He stopped for a moment, hoping he hadn't broken it.
'I'm broke this month after buying this full body VR unit..'
He brushed his hair back with a sigh to reveal his feminine face. His looks could easily pass for a female model.
The sound of cars passing through the heavy rain sounded outside his window. He averted his eyes to avoid his reflection in the small mirror on his desk.
'Phew… I woke up on time. Did I buy any spare noodles for later?'
He dropped onto his black gaming chair filled with tape with a loud creak. His hand reached for what he presumed was last night's soda only to spit the nasty warm tasting flat soda onto the carpet. He pulled his tongue with a disgusted face.
'Ugh! Taste like ass and not the good kind!'
He slammed the can back down onto his white Ikeyer desk filled with countless marks. He felt a twinge in his lower back as he pressed the buttons on his monitors.
The boy leant back in his chair with a noisy squeak. He gazed towards his ceiling, that was painted full of the harem of that Welsh dragon guy who loves breasts.
"Today's both the release day and my birthday. There isn't anyone to spend his day with."
He looked outside the window with a gloomy feeling. Dark grey clouds filled his view, swallowing the sky. Honestly, he didn't see the sun for a while as his night job and gaming left him sleeping till 5pm and feeling too lazy to leave his room most days.
'Is this country ever bright and cheerful?'
Lightning flashed outside, revealing he lived in a modern British styled detached home near the city centre. He saw a man walking his dog in green shorts run past below his window. This caused him to sneer and mock him.
'Who goes out in this rain? Haha.'
"Well… Here's to you! Happy birthday Lucian Silva! This is the present you worked so hard for!"
Lucian moved across the room as the glare from his monitors gave him light. He leaned over the side of his chair to boot his old computer with a cool gunmetal case. The light flashed blue before his led alternated between red, blue and yellow depending on the load.
'Mmmm don't worry, I am doing fine…' He thought.
Lucian looked towards a picture of a kind looking old couple. They were his aunt and uncle who had taken care of him since turning 21.
He seemed to have lost all photographs before he turned that age. However, Lucian was never concerned about it, as each day was difficult to survive. It had taken him five years, but now at 26 he could call himself independent.
His fingers traced the last remaining item that linked him to those days. A bright and cheerful woman with black curled hair and green eyes flashed through his memory. He couldn't remember the name as it would cause a shooting pain in his mind.
Once he tried too hard to remember her shortly after moving in with his aunt. He then suffered a severe seizure and went into the hospital for several weeks. The doctors claimed it was a severe posttraumatic stress disorder.
However, Lucian gained something from that month of horrible pain. He remembered having a stepsister, and the bracelet he always wore was a gift from her. This was enough for current him.
'I miss my sister though…'
Lucian shook his head to settle his thoughts.
The antivirus caused his computer to take a long time to boot fully. His fingers operated the Iron series mouse to open his flame fox browser. He browsed through the forums, waiting for his game to update.
The forums were on fire because of today's new update for the critically acclaimed VRRPG: Vampire Hunter: Blood Rights. He was angry because they spoiled the middle and early plots for him. However, his excitement was far too big to die because of this.
(VRRPG stands for Virtual Reality Role Playing Game)
"Thank god I preloaded. Otherwise I'd be like these morons..."
Many people were upset about the game size. Because this game was massive and needed to store data inside the computer and the VR unit. The total size was nearly 1 terabyte (1TB.)
He thought ahead and preloaded most of the data, so all he needed to do was climb into his VR unit and create his character.
He had time to prepare because the official forums had a delay message. He checked social media for any birthday messages.
However, he could only see offers on energy drinks and spam messages. He gave a sigh, as he felt a little lonely. Lucian gave one last deep breath as he stood up, letting his robe fall to the ground. His feet slowly paced towards the VR unit beside his computer.
His room was barely big enough to fit his bed, computer and the 7ft submersion unit. He was lazy but remembered to fill it with the nutrient and treatment paste at least. The large unit was too big for his room, so he pushed it under his desk. Which left a metre gap for him to enter.
He looked at the all silver metal case, feeling like an astronaut or something. His fingers slid across the unit. The icy cool feel from the liquid nitrogen felt great.
Lucian lifted his left leg and touched the jelly. He felt a jolt of electric as the cold jelly caused him to recoil. His breath raced because of the surprise before he gathered his courage and jumped inside. The sticky gel reminded him of the lubricant used in his favourite Akeno onahole.
'This feels so weird, but I'm so fucking hyped! I get to experience sex in virtual reality! Haha, she will also say my name thanks to the AI to improve learning for custom names!'
He felt excited as his body settled into the unit. He had bought a customised unit that fit his body perfectly. The safety bars locked onto his legs, body and neck to avoid injury from movement whilst he was inside a deep sleep.

[Please Close The Lid To Begin Virtual Dive]
[Beep]
He could feel the bubbles foaming around his body as he dragged the meter long glass door over his front. The chamber locked with a loud click.
[Beep]
[Please Close Your Eyes And Relax]
[Beep]
His heart was thumping against his chest. To afford this unit for the game's compatibility launch, he worked 20 nights in a row, almost killing himself.
'Phew... The feeling of the gel covering my face makes me feel uneasy.'
A headset fixed on his head to protect his neck. A brace connected his neck to the headset. Now the unit sent gentle vibrations through the gel. These vibrations would soothe the user's brain, completely placing them in a deep sleep.
[Initialising Program…]
[Beep]
[Have A Wonderful Dive! Dear Customer #143561!]
Lucian didn't even know he was sleeping, as he was now watching the games opening movie in the most realistic graphics he had ever seen. All the heroines were vibrant and attractive. His favourite was the muscular Elven queen who wore a plate bikini and full plate helmet.
'Woah this is amazing!'
'Hey! I can hear my own thoughts in real time!?'
The level of detail and quality of this unit shocked him. His low mood from a birthday alone faded from his mind as he was now standing inside a vast field. They even emulated the slight wind on his skin.
The introduction ended and the game's main menu appeared with only one option: [New Game]
Lucian didn't know how to start a game. He tried pressing his fingers like guns, imitated a gamepad. His patience almost drove him to climb out and scream at the developer.
"How hard is it for them to teach you how to play a game?"
[Beginning New Game]
Whenever the game spoke to him, it appeared within a strange blue bubble with bold white text and a mechanical voice.
He suddenly stood in a dark room facing a mirror. The person before him wasn't the real him. He was too perfect for a man. You could even call him a maiden with his red lips, ocean blue eyes and silver hair. He wanted to look like that forever.
(AN: This is his true looks, however, because of his trauma and mental problems, the person he see's in the mirror is a monstrous image that disgusts him.)

[Bing!]
[Do you wish to use the 3D scan to create a character template?]
[Beep]
Lucian felt like a complete idiot. This was a complete dive and there was no controller. He nodded to test the accuracy of their program.
[Confirmed]
[…]
[Do you wish to change your looks?]
[Beep]
He wondered what he could do to not waste time creating a character. He remembered that a character in the game had a similar name to him.
'Wouldn't it be cool to take screenshots while pretending to be him?'
"Can I change my appearance in any way possible?"
[Beep]
[Within the limits of the game's character edit function!]
'Phew.'
Lucian honestly didn't like self inserts much, especially the paragon hero types. This game was almost perfect, except Lance could only be a hero. He at least wanted to add some spice and pretend to be the small villain Lucian Von Silver.
"Can you display a sample image of an NPC to help customisation?"
[…]
[Beep]
[Yes, please state the character name and age you desire, then say "Display [NPC NAME] sample image."]
He gave a nod and then decided on which form he wished to imitate. This reflected his deep desire to return to his past.
"Display Lucian Von Silver 19-Year-old sample image."
[Beep]
[…]
[Please wait! May take 5-10 Minutes]
[…]
The orchestral background music played from the trailer. Lucian thought about how he would play the game.
This game was rather strange. Yo could capture many of the heroines with ease. However, the difficulty of the combat would rise at strange points. If unprepared, you might get hard stuck and need to restart.
He opened up a small notepad that would write his inner thoughts and keep them saved while he played the game. The developers added this instead of a traditional sub-quest system so people would have to search for themselves.
They detailed the main quests and their locations to avoid a backlash from people who just wanted to play.
'Let's see, I will take earth magic as it boosts strength and stamina growth.'
Lucian always chose raw strength over agility or magic. He just disliked those sneaky or magical types. The next choice was his alignment received upon creation. He hoped for neutral or evil, as they could get the best heroines easier.
The system also had an amusing function, which gave Lance a random cock size upon creation. They would have to start over if Lance had a micro penis. Or suffer a -8 charisma penalty.

'Oh? That was fast!'
"Yes!"
[Confirmed!]
The male inside the mirror warped as a second male appeared with pale white hair and red eyes. Lucian watched the two fuse slowly with a flash of light.
'Woah… Lucian Von Silver was packing major heat.'
It forced Lucian to cover his eyes. He found it amazing how real everything felt to him.
The two fused me fused into one. He stood 6ft 3 inches tall with platinum blonde hair. His crimson eyes shimmered purple occasionally, which seemed to be the pretty mans influence.
'Wow! It fused their best parts!'
[Begin manual edit?]
[Beep]
Lucian spent some time to iron out his dislikes. The blonde male's face was better than the NPC Lucian. Time passed extremely fast on this screen.
[Warning 12 Hours has passed!]
[Beep!]
[Injecting Liquid Nourishment!]
[Beep!]
"Phew, finally done!"
He took over 12 hours to finish. However, the final product was a masterpiece. You couldn't touch or edit genitals. However, he could change the pubes by trimming them into a cool lightning bolt.
The final product pleased Lucian, as he then moved onto the last parts of his character.
[What is your name?]
"Lucian Von Silver!"
[Confirmed]
[Beep]
[Name: Lucian Von Silver]
[Is this correct?]
His body seemed to jitter as the game forced his eyes closed. A slight tingling pain shot down his spine before it ended after a moment. He was no longer a third person looking at the character.
'Wow! I'm inside Lucian!?'
[Is this your character?]
[Beep]
[Enter the world?]
"Phew… It's finally time to game. I'm happy I booked so much time off work. I wonder which quests to do first? Should I attend the side quest that explains the power system or flirt with the cute heroines hehe?"
He gave one last nod before opening his mouth.
"Enter the world!"
*Bzzzt*
(Outside his tank)
The storm was getting worse because of the lightning strikes. With a bright flash, moments later, a single bolt of black lighting struck the antenna on Lucian's house. Then it travelled through the metal and shot towards his VR unit.
It cooked his body, leaving him to die inside an endless dream.
(Lucian Von Silver POV)
I could feel intense pain all over my body. This couldn't be a normal occurrence from using the VR unit.
'Maybe something went wrong? Should I try calling tech support? I don't want to be fried alive after all!'
My eyes flickered twice as they adjusted to the new area. I was inside a brightly lit room with decor from what I imagined a middle ages noble's mansion to look like.
They made these walls of white stone and pretty marble. I saw a massive red carpet which was extremely thick and soft to touch on my feet as I stood up from the weird black slate I was sleeping on.
My eyes gawped at the expensive-looking church like windows filling my view. It was like I awoke inside some well-to-do church.
'Maybe this is a special spawn for Lance or something?'
After taking several steps, I could tell the carpet was high-class animal fur. It felt softer than a rabbit's fur when it brushed against my feet. I couldn't move well, like my body was stiff.
'Strange… Why can I feel pain so vividly? Isn't it supposed to be dampened?'
My body was wearing tight leather pants with a slim fit style. The size of my bulge was now twice the size of before. I wasn't small, but this was a monster! This random cock size was really amazing!
I couldn't resist and gave it a touch. It felt more real than my own in reality.
This room was massive. However, there was nobody close to me. My ears were now much better as I could hear the animals outside clearly. More accurately, their hearts.
"H-hello?"
There was a beautiful voice coming from my lips. This wasn't my voice. It was like an English aristocrat would sound in those vampire movies.
I struggled with a sense of panic as I tried to regain the sensation within my feet. My hair was now platinum blonde and down to my shoulders, just like the character I created. So maybe this was an intended feature!
"Is anyone there?"
This situation was beyond me, so I called for help. However, nobody answered my call for aid. The weather outside seemed to match reality. Heavy rain and bolts of thunder in the distance, the sound and reverberation felt spot on as it caused the windows to rattle.
The feeling in my legs restored after several minutes as I climbed out of the strange black casket I mistook for a slate earlier. My body was pristine without blemish. Honestly, it was a far cry from my ugly self in reality.
'It feels nice to be beautiful…'
I stretched out my hands. My fingers were long and delicate.
I stumbled towards a large human sized mirror with a silver snake with ruby gems for eyes as its border. My reflection was surprising. It forced me to take a deep breath.
It was a man in his late teens. Anyone would be sure I was the NPC Lucian Von Silver. My eyes were crimson and red. This is the character I created in the game which confused me.
'Strange everything feels real… Is the game supposed to be THIS cutting edge?'
I tried to call forth the games interface which showed nothing. No matter what method I used, there was no way to open it. When I tried to use the emergency log out phrase, it failed.
'What's going on…?'
My thoughts seemed calm, however, I was anything but calm! I was in complete panic. This was like stories where an otaku transfers into a villain.
To prove my point, I pinched my own balls, as you couldn't commit self harm or touch your own genitals in the game.
The shooting pain caused me to fall to the floor with tears.
Despite being an 18+ game, the law prevented them from adding actual feeling to the sexual organs. So they added the effect to the tank instead of the game. It would trigger sexual pleasure using vibrations inside the unit and would give the player the sense of climax.
"FUCK!" my beautiful voice screamed, lacking any elegance.
I could feel intense vertigo and fell down onto my knees. My one chance at transmigration and it's a mere mob villain. The worse part is they locked his growth stats behind immensely difficult feats.
Lucian starts off with inferior status and poor potential in the game. If he didn't have special weapons. They would lock him to a maximum of E Rank at level 100. This wasn't the max level, but each level after 100 became very hard to attain.
This game featured a rank system for power.
[G Rank = 0-5 Attribute points]
[F Rank = 5-10 Attribute points]
[E Rank = 10-20 Attribute points]
[D Rank = 20-30 Attribute points]
[C Rank = 30-50 Attribute points]
The Ranks went as high as SSS in the games forums. However, that's not important for an ant like me now. I have to find a new growth path and soon!
Carmilla would help me, but her grandmother would not. She hates Lucian because of his past playboy like actions and always pushing Carmilla away.
'I don't know what to do! Even if I rely on her now, I cannot rely on her forever!'
She will awaken a special power in the future and drive her away from this country. The next time she appears, we will stand on opposing sides as enemies.
"No... I can change that! I will make her happy and never let Lance gain affection towards her!"
My mind remembers that Lance could enter a route with Carmilla as a hidden heroine. She is my only ticket to survival, so I need to avoid upsetting her. It would take until the end of the game to open her route.
'I wonder if she will choose me over him? Does he still exist in this world since I created a character using Lance?'
Nobody answered my question as I lamented. In the past I used to practise mixed martial arts. However, that was many years ago. Combat sports differ from fighting real life monsters that can kill you…
"I think this game started in nightmare mode!"
