Arcane Realm Chapter 1
Reyna-“It has been a week since the CEO of Wolf Tech has gone missing. For those that don’t know, he is the creator of the virtual reality game, known as Arcane Realm. The game has become exceedingly popular since it was first announced to be released a year ago. Many had lined up to purchase the gear needed to play the game. Since it was released the day before CEO Luka Alder went missing, it has been a popular topic. Arcane Realm was created as a fantasy role-playing game…” The lady on the radio continued talking, but I reached over and turned it off.I didn’t want to hear another person talking about how my boss was missing. Most of the time they focused more on the game than the fact that he was missing. It has been a week and still, the police have not come up with any new leads.The acting CEO of the company, previously the Vice President, seems to be looking into the matter, but even he is trying to keep the talk about the CEO limited. I wished that someone would do something

Reyna-Next, I had to choose my username, which I had to think about for a minute. I could choose a random name, but I decided not to. In the end, I stuck with my real name, Reyna. It wasn’t like I couldn’t change it later.Now that my character was complete, I could join the game and explore it as a Fairy creature. Clicking on the start game option on the menu, I was once again transported to the starting point in the game. The game consisted of twenty-two levels, but each level had many distinct aspects to it.I knew that the developing team was working on putting in updates as well. Depending on this game, there could eventually be more levels added in the second version. Personally, I didn’t think adding more levels to Arcane Realm was an innovative idea.I worried that if they did, it would overload the circuits and the current gear wouldn’t be able to handle it. Maybe after some time and a more advanced headgear could be made, it wouldn’t be a bad idea.Then again, I didn’t want

Reyna-I didn’t know what I was expecting, but what he did next surprised me. Before I knew what was happening, he moved toward me and attacked. I hadn’t been fast enough when the blade of his sword sliced across the flesh of my arm.I might be in a game right now, but the pain felt real. In this moment I hated that the headgear stimulated the brain enough to make everything feel real. Gripping my arm, I quickly backed away from him.“What the hell?” I yelled.He still didn’t say anything as he lunged at me again. This time I was quick enough to react and quickly moved out of the way. I tried to get my wings to fly me off the ground, but a message popped up saying that my stamina was still recharging.Frustrated now, I knew that if I wanted to find out what was going on, I was going to need to fight back. Readying my short sword, I prepared to defend myself. I could sense that his level was higher than mine, but that didn’t mean that I couldn’t take him on.With my real-life skills, I

Reyna-After I spoke, he released my wrist and stopped walking. “This map hasn’t been made to the public yet. It is still under development and will be released later in the game. This is the only place in the game where we can speak without being discovered.”I didn’t know what was more surprising, the fact that he actually responded to my question, or that his response was proof enough that he was indeed Luka Alder, the CEO of Wolf Tech, and the creator of Arcane Realm.“Why do we need to be worried about being discovered?”“Because what I am about to tell you, needs to stay between us. Since you are hellbent on looking for me, I have no choice but to trust you.”My eyes widened at his statement, but I didn’t say anything, since I didn’t know what to say. He sounded serious, which meant there was no time for jokes right now. Although, I wanted to laugh about the situation.“Do you promise not to tell anyone that you saw me?” He asked with a stern expression on his face.“I promise.”
Arcane Realm Chapter 5
Reyna- The kind of excitement I felt at him saying that was difficult to hide. I knew he wasn’t proposing to me because he was in love with me or anything, yet the idea of being married to him was alluring. Even if it was only in the game. Obviously, he was only doing it to complete certain missions that only couples could complete. We would also be able to share items in the game, which I was guessing was his way of helping me level up faster. As much as I wished it was real, I would accept what I could get. Not to sound optimistic, but I hoped that while I was helping him get out of the game, he would finally see me as more than just an employee. Maybe it was wishful thinking on my part, but I was willing to take the risk. Even if he didn’t fall for me, just being able to spend time with him for a bit would be worth it. “I am willing.” I told him a few moments later. I expected him to be relieved that I agreed, but instead, he looked at me as if he couldn’t believe what I said.

Reyna- “What now?” He sounded irritated, but I ignored it. “I think you should change your name. Being known as an unknown player might raise a few red flags. If you want to keep your identity hidden, I think you should choose a player name.” He looked thoughtful for a moment before nodding. “You might be right.” As he pulled up his menu, I waited patiently for him to come up with a name. The name he ended up choosing, caused me to drop my jaw. Of all the names he could have chosen, why did he have to use his real name? “I thought you were trying to keep your identity a secret?” I asked. “I am. What better way to hide, than in plain sight? The person behind this won’t think that I would use my real name. If I am questioned, I can just say that I chose my name in honor of the guy who created the game.” “What about when your name is broadcasted after we defeat a boss? You are just going to be putting a target on your back.” “While I don’t want others to know the truth, I don’t m
Arcane Realm Chapter 7
Reyna- After waking up, showering, and eating, I logged into the game. Instead of returning to the same spot I logged out at, I headed back to the town. I was on an hour early, Since I didn’t want to disturb him if he was still asleep, I thought it best to get a head start on the game. I still wasn’t at his level yet. While we were grinding through the monsters, he kept pulling ahead, making it impossible for me to catch up. Being that I had an hour before I was meant to meet with him, I wanted to use that time to do a little leveling up on my own. Not wasting any time, I made my way out of the safe zone. My levels were much higher now, which meant I didn’t need to waste time on the lower-level ones. They didn’t offer many experience points and their materials weren’t as good. It didn’t take me long to reach the stronger monsters on this level. Quickly making work of building up, I didn’t keep track of time. Now that I was stronger, I was able to defeat them with ease. It helped th
Arcane Realm Chapter 8
Reyna-Standing outside a large gate, which was too tall to see over, surrounded by shrubs, I wondered if there were any game updates involving the bosses on each floor. As far as I knew, the first one was a Giant Goblin. The entrance to the boss on this level was still the same, which is why we didn’t have any issues finding it.“You should know that even though you fought against all the monsters during the beta testing, I made sure to have them updated before the official release. When we go inside, don’t assume you know anything about how to defeat them. There are a lot of things that even I don’t know everything.” Luka said from beside me.When I looked over at him, I saw he was staring at the iron gate, and he looked slightly pale. I was sure he was thinking that there was a chance he would die inside. No matter what I had to do, I was going to ensure that he didn’t.“Let me deal with it first, to get an idea of what we are facing. Don’t try to save me either.” Taking a step for
