It's so painful! So hard! So difficult!

But, how to attack?

The girl glanced at the dagger in her left hand

...It seems to be even longer than the other person's arm.

But she couldn't think about that anymore. She thought about the attack moves in the games she'd played before. Her first reaction was the charged rising dragon move, the most common one-handed sword move in "Mighty Man King." Although her left and right hands were different, she swung her right hand, holding the sword, back, and slightly bent her right knee forward. With her center of gravity shifted, she looked ready to strike.

It's heavier than I thought. The girl focused her attention on her waist, where she would exert force. "Now!" she thought, and then swung her right hand forward with her left leg.

The sword, without a doubt, struck where he wanted.

But something seems wrong?

The girl felt the world spinning before her eyes, and then a sharp pain and a nauseating dizziness surged into her brain.

Her breathing was rapid—no, she couldn't breathe at all. The girl opened her eyes wide in fear, her vision already blurring. What she saw before her was...

My own body, just without the head.

The erosion of ice and snow did not relieve the girl's pain. She wanted to scream, but she could no longer shout. The part of her vocal tract was left on the other side of her body. Looking at the gushing blood, the girl gave up thinking and darkness returned to her eyes.

Is this really a game?

“Ha…ha…” The girl sat up in bed in horror, taking a deep breath.

It's a dream.

She looked around the room, or rather the tent, which felt very unfamiliar to her. She immediately became alert and looked at her body.

No, it wasn't a dream! She knew it at a glance. Even though the leather armor had been taken off by someone, there was still a layer of animal skin, different from the leather armor, wrapped around her chest.

But the key point is the part of the body that is different from that of men.

"Wake up--" A hand lifted the curtain that looked like a tent. The moment the voice came, the girl screamed.

"ah---!"

The cry continued for three or four seconds before the other person, unable to resist, opened the door curtain and walked in. It was a young woman dressed in a plain dress made of blue-gray dyed cloth. She held the girl's hands and said softly, "It's okay, it's okay. I don't know what happened to you before, but it's all right now."

The girl stopped screaming. To be frank, she might just be experiencing a slow reaction, or perhaps PTSD? In short, she had calmed down. Her breathing had gradually become more even, and the other party, relieved, released her hands.

Is this the level of pain a game should experience? The girl rubbed her neck with a bit of fear. Although she wasn't very focused at school, she still remembered that excessive mental pain could leave indelible damage to the brain.

"Status... isn't it? That TaskBar?" After the girl called out the latter, a somewhat transparent, magical-looking purple panel appeared in front of her right hand. The square panel was wrapped with some incomprehensible patterns, and at the top was a familiar symbol.

That was the logo of the company that produced this device. She had seen it several times when she opened the package, so she still remembered it.

After all, I am still in the game... The girl thought for a moment, and slid the taskbar with her right hand. She was searching for a button.

"Sign out".

"What are you doing?" the plain-dressed woman who had just entered asked in surprise.

"Do you know how to log out?" the girl asked without looking up.

"Log out? What is that? If you need anything, I will do my best to satisfy you." The woman in plain clothes replied.

"Why isn't there a logout button on this panel?" the girl's voice grew louder. Anyone would panic again in this situation, and she was no exception.

The plain-clothed woman was still confused, her expression even showing a bit of panic. "I don't know what you're talking about, but if you're worried, you can talk to me."

"Logout!" The girl ignored the woman in plain clothes. After shouting this sentence, she found that it still had no effect, so she punched the panel hard, but because the panel was not solid, it hit her knee, making her grit her teeth.

The pace of this book is not fast, and there are only light

Chapter 4 Unable to log out

"Can you please calm down for a moment?" the plain-clothed woman spoke again.

"How can I possibly stay calm?" The girl rubbed her face with her hands in a frantic manner. She had never imagined that she would one day encounter such a situation.

Being trapped in the game and unable to get out.

She still has parents who love her, a girlfriend, and friends out there. In every sense, that life is not something she should give up.

What's more, something terrifying happened to her just a few minutes ago.

The girl's mind was in a mess, and she couldn't figure out what to do now. Although her body seemed to be moving normally, it was meaningless if she only acted within this game.

As she thought of this, she suddenly felt herself being embraced by someone else. The girl's cheek was pressed between two warm places, which made her mind less panicked and more blank.

The woman in plain clothes stroked the girl's head with her left hand.

"Maybe this is a little offensive, but from the outside, you and my sister don't look much different in age."

"At this age, you're destined to save the world... How tragic! At least here, you can rest in peace."

What was she saying? The girl reacted and broke free from the other person's arms.

"What do you mean by saving the world? Why on earth are you using honorifics for me?"

The plain-clothed woman was stunned when she heard her words, but after two seconds of silence, she opened her lips and explained:

"Our village has an ancestral motto that the village chosen by the gods will one day send the Son of God to the side of the shrine. We must do our best to meet the Son of God's requests, and he will be the one to save this continent." The woman said calmly.

"I'm not a saint, I'm a player. Do you understand what a player is?" The girl said in disbelief, spreading her hands and threateningly.

This should be a friendly NPC in the game. Maybe she knows what a player is.

The woman closed her eyes and shook her head. "I've never heard of a player. Whether you are the Son of God or not can be seen from your appearance that is completely different from that of an ordinary person." The woman took down a mirror from the cabinet next to her.

The girl looked at herself in the mirror. She had been shocked enough today, and although her heart was surging, her expression was numb.

It was the same hair color as when she was outside, the same white as the snow scene she had seen before, but there seemed to be tiny strands of gold mixed in it, making it look much more lively than pure white.

A few bangs are swept from the tip of her left eyebrow to the back of her head. It is a hairstyle that is not common in real life, but it looks very harmonious here. The slightly longer hair is draped behind her shoulders.

Although her hair color already made her feel strange, her almost perfect face made her feel unbelievable.

On her slightly childish face were a pair of eyes that existed only in fantasy. Gold and red blended together, framing her angelic features.

This... is this really me? The girl was a little dazed.

However, no matter how beautiful it is, it has to leave this world.

"Maybe, this is the tutorial for beginners? As long as you pass it, there will be an exit button. Some games' tutorials really can't be skipped." The girl murmured to herself, still holding a glimmer of hope in her heart.

"If you don't mind, could you tell me your name?" The woman asked softly when she saw that the girl seemed much calmer.

"Yes, sure. My name is Bai Lin." The girl is also a otaku who has played many female characters, so she naturally has some feminine nicknames in her mind.

"But, I may not really be the Holy Son you're talking about. Don't expect too much from me. I still have my own world to live in. But while I'm still here, I'll do my best to work for you."

Bai Lin adjusted his mindset and spoke in a relaxed tone. It's better to have a good relationship with the NPCs.

Just lying on the bed and flipping through a panel with a bunch of game options and various messy prop bars would not solve the problem. After communicating with the woman in plain clothes, she roughly understood her situation.

"Is that so... I understand. But I still hope that you can stay here for a while longer." The woman in plain clothes said hesitantly.

"Huh? Why?" Bai Lin asked as he got out of bed and put on the leather armor placed aside.

"You probably don't know much about this world. After all, you don't even know the meaning of the universally acknowledged concept of saving the world. This world has been almost completely overrun by all manner of non-human creatures. Humanity is now reduced to small villages like ours and a single remaining city."

Bai Lin searched for something with his own eyes, feeling a touch of surprise at the woman's words. This game's setting seemed quite severe for the human side; this kind of theme was relatively rare.

"Although there are habitable villages, they are often attacked. Every attack almost always results in casualties, so I hope you can stay here for a while and protect us."

Hearing this, Bai Lin remembered the time when she was chopped to pieces by a sword because she misjudged the opponent's speed. She couldn't help but smile bitterly, then turned to the woman in plain clothes and said, "Have you seen my sword and shield?"

"Sword and shield? No, when you fainted beside the shrine, you only had this set of leather armor on you."

"Ah, that's troublesome. But before solving this problem, I want to make a request of you." Bai Lin's face turned serious and he pointed at the woman with his right index finger.

"Please give me your orders." The woman lowered her head, looking very respectful.

"Treat me as an equal. Don't use honorifics to address me. Just call me by my name. You said before that your sister and I look about the same age, right? I should be more respectful to you as my older sister then."

“I dare not…”

"Hey, but you have to treat me equally, don't forget." Bai Lin immediately interrupted the woman's speech.

"Then, I will call you Lord Bai Lin..."

"Leave the master to me." Bai Lin said bluntly.

"Puchi." The woman suddenly laughed.

This sudden smile made Bai Lin a little confused: "Huh? What's wrong?"

This is the author's words when the second volume was released.

I found that most people stopped posting after reading the first few chapters. I guess they gave up on reading the book.

In fact, the author's later plots are getting better and better. Believe in the author and wait for the updates after September. Thank you very much.

There are indeed some problems with what I wrote above, but I really don’t have time to come back and reset it.

Chapter 5 Attacked

"No, no, no, it's nothing. Actually, I'm not used to speaking in that tone. Since you... no, Bai Lin, since you said so, I can be more unscrupulous, right?"

The plain-clothed woman suddenly became a different person, opening her mouth to talk. She clenched her right fist, put it in front of her mouth, coughed twice, and then put on an extremely serious face.

"I want to make a request of you...hahaha..."

Bai Lin scratched his head, somewhat confused, as he looked at the woman in plain clothes who had failed in an instant.

"I say, Bai Lin, the deliberate airs you just put on are so much like my sister, the way you tried to pretend to be mature." The woman restrained her smile a little, but the happiness in her eyes could not be concealed.

Bai Lin felt his brows twitching. Was he a little angry? Or maybe something else?

——I always feel like I’m being underestimated.

"Ah, I forgot. My name is Klein. It doesn't sound like a girl's name, right? Actually, it's because..."

Is this woman a chatterbox? The corners of Bai Lin's mouth twitched slightly.

But, isn't it good?

I think I used to be such a talkative person, I really miss it.

Thinking of this, Bai Lin did not interrupt the other party's narration, but raised the corners of his mouth slightly and became a quiet listener.

She felt like she'd get along well with this guy. This was her inner judgment of Klein.

"That's right." Klein paused, his tone becoming calmer, with a hint of weakness mixed in.

"Although I know it's very willful, but if possible, I hope Bai Lin can take care of my sister. That child doesn't have many friends. If you are of similar age, you might be able to talk to each other more."

Such pleading words coming from a woman who looked weak naturally aroused people's sympathy. Bai Lin was naturally interested in her request.

"Oh? Why? Is it difficult for your sister to get along with others?" Bai Lin asked.

"Not really. Her situation is a bit special, perhaps because her abilities are too outstanding. However, she is particularly attached to me... so I think if it was Bai Lin, the Holy Son, she might get along better with her."

Hearing the word "Son of God" again, Bai Lin was a little more accepting than before. Perhaps this was the identity that this game player had set.

But is it really okay to leave this kind of thing to myself, who has already lost my temper twice since we just met?

Perhaps, a beautiful girl's appearance simply makes her more approachable. Bai Lin came to this conclusion.

"Having you as my sister is enough." Despite this, she felt it would be better not to agree to it lightly. Bai Lin has become accustomed to a life without excessive contact with others.

"I still hope she can have more friends. After all, in this day and age..." Klein's tone was filled with helplessness, and the corners of his mouth that had been raised fell.

"You never know when you might be attacked and die."

"Please don't set such a flag, thank you--" Bai Lin replied immediately. She also didn't dare to say anything like "I will definitely protect you".

This kind of thing is a big taboo.

"Hmm? What's that..."

"Ahem, anyway, let's not talk about this topic for now. I agreed about your sister, but I can't guarantee that it will succeed." Bai Lin moved his body.

Although this situation should not occur in the game, Bai Lin, who had been lying in bed for a long time, felt his body a little stiff.

This body was much stronger than his previous one, which was still weak despite regular exercise, so he didn't want to have any emergencies due to not being able to move his body.

After all, it stands to reason that the novice tutorial should include combat elements.

"Next, task—" Just as she finished stretching her body and was about to call out the taskbar, a long and melodious voice interrupted her.

Klein immediately vigilantly grasped a sword placed behind the bedside table. "This is an enemy attack!" she said in a strong tone.

"Hey, even if it's an enemy attack, your reaction would be too big. Leave this matter to me and the strong men in the village." Bai Lin said with an expression of "I knew it" on his face, "You can't expect even women and children to go to the battlefield."

"need."
