Darkness.
Endless… silent darkness.
For a moment, Nagi felt as if he were floating in nothingness. No sound. No weight. No body.
Then—
A sharp pulse surged through his mind.
[Initializing Nano Chip…]
[Neural Link Established]
[Synchronizing Brain Waves… 10%… 45%… 78%… 100%]
A message appeared before him.
[Enter a Nickname]
Nagi hesitated for a moment… then typed:
Daniel
His eyes opened.
A soft light filled his vision as the world slowly formed around him.
He stood in a quiet, endless white space.
"…So this is Realise," he muttered.
His voice sounded clear. Natural.
Real.
He looked down at his hands. Every detail was perfect—the texture of his skin, the movement of his fingers, even the steady rhythm of his heartbeat.
"This isn't normal VR…"
[System Notice]
[Realise is a fully immersive neural world]
[All five senses are synchronized]
The space around him shifted.
In the next moment, Daniel stood in the middle of a lively town.
People walked along the streets. Shops were open. Conversations filled the air.
It looked… completely real.
Daniel observed quietly.
So this is the starting town…
From what he understood, this should be a game world.
Which meant—
These people are NPCs.
No one paid him any special attention.
They passed by him naturally, just like in the real world.
Daniel exhaled slowly.
"If this is a game…"
A faint determination appeared in his eyes.
"…then I'll rise to the top."
"System… open."
A translucent panel appeared before him.

Just then—
[New Event Triggered]
Class Awakening Ceremony
Event Info:
This ceremony allows individuals to unlock their class.
Time Remaining: 30 Minutes
Location: Central Academy
"A class…"
Daniel murmured.
Without wasting time, he began heading toward the academy.
As he walked through the town, everything felt… normal.
Too normal.
People talked, laughed, argued—even small details like footsteps and wind felt real.
This game is on another level…
Soon, the Central Academy came into view.
A grand building stood tall at the center of the city.
Inside, an announcement echoed:
"The ceremony will begin in five minutes. Please register to receive your number."
Daniel stepped forward.
"Name?" the staff member asked.
"Daniel."
"Age?"
"Sixteen."
"Level?"
"…One."
The staff member simply nodded and handed him a card.
Number: 777
Daniel took his seat.
The hall was filled with people.
Some looked nervous. Others excited.
Even their reactions are realistic…
The ceremony began.
"Participants will enter according to their number," the professor announced.
One by one, individuals stepped into the magic circle.
Light surrounded them as they awakened their classes.
"Elemental Magician. A Rank."
"Warrior. C Rank."
The process continued.
Then—
"Number 94."
A girl stepped forward.
A strong red aura erupted around her.
"Red Knight. S Rank."
Murmurs spread across the hall.
Daniel watched calmly.
After a while, he leaned back.
"…Still far from my turn."
"System," he whispered. "If I sleep, will I log out?"
[System Response]
Sleep does not trigger logout.
Use the command "Logout" to exit.
"…I see."
He closed his eyes.
"Number 777."
"Number 777."
A voice called out.
Daniel opened his eyes slowly.
"My turn."
He stood up and walked toward the center.
The hall had grown quiet.
He stepped into the magic circle.
The moment his foot touched it—
The air changed.
Light surged upward.
His body began to rise.
A pillar of light burst into the sky.
Brilliant red.
Powerful.
Unstoppable.
It stretched far beyond the academy.
Daniel's eyes narrowed slightly.
"…This feels different."
Then—
The light changed.
From red—
To black.
A deep, endless darkness.
Silent.
Vast.
Then it disappeared.
A message appeared before him.
[Class Awakened]
Rank:XXX
Class Name: The Void
The professor stared in stunned silence.
"…I have never seen such a class…"
Daniel landed back on the ground.
His expression remained calm.
"Please keep this private."
The professor nodded slowly.
"…Understood."
Daniel turned slightly.
"System… do I have any teleport skill?"
[System Response]
No teleport skill detected.
Access granted: Void Space
"…Void Space."
Voices began to rise again in the hall.
More people were approaching.
"You should leave," the professor said.
Daniel nodded.
"Understood."
"Void Space."
In an instant—
He disappeared.
A new space formed around him.
Endless.
Silent.
Covered in a soft purple glow.
"…So this is my space."
He focused.
White.
The color changed instantly.
Daniel paused for a moment.
"…Interesting."
Then—
"Logout."
The world faded.
Nagi opened his eyes.
Back in his room.
Breathing slowly.
"…This game…"
He seen in front.
"…is appears a system window "
