Chapter 279 - Chaptee 6: Just Your Average Salaryman (II) (2/2)
But their hours died down the more they rose in the ranks, and so did their wages increase too, giving them more free time on hand. It took them a total of four years to secure a good position in this new world.
Nao wanted to see what it was like to be in Suzuki Satoru's shoes before he became Momonga, and sure enough it wasn't fun to be an average salaryman.
Thankfully four years passed by in a blink of an eye. Only two more years they had remaining before the first day of Yggdrasil started. Speaking of which, Nao and Chelsea managed to amass most of their savings. They only needed to pay the rent to the rundown building the belonged to, since they had everything else needed for their daily lives back in the White Palace.
As such, after four years, Nao and Chelsea underwent the privilege of purchasing nanotech and having it installed on their bodies! That meant the installers had to drill holes on the back of their necks to connect it to their nervous systems and brains. The pain was almost nothing to them.
Nao and Chelsea bought the the full version of the nanotech, with the chair, separate console and helmet, and everything required to log in.
And now, Nao and Chelsea could be seen in a small room nearby in the White Palace next to the main bedroom and throne room. Similar to the Portal Room, it was relatively small and contained nothing but black marble inside of it, instead of white marble. They wanted this to be the Dark Room, aptly named and it was relatively cool temperature inside of it. This would be the same room where they would start the DMMORPG adventures!
Some may wonder how this was possible, considering they are in the White Palace and not back down on Planet Earth. Typically the virtual network databases and signals wouldn't be able to reach the White Palace. Thankfully through the use of some alien tech from the DBZ Plane and collaborative work of Miya, Tights and Isabella, the three managed to create a high tech satellite capable of receiving said data and signals, without the capability of being traced back.
Essentially a ghost satellite. Or in this case, a Godly Satellite? Regardless, it found its orbit around the White Palace.
You wouldn't think these virtual worlds would work willy-nilly just buy buying the stuff, did you? That's the bad part of living in a high tech society. Many factors are involved in the whole process.
Anyways, with that out of the way, Nao and Chelsea set up their gaming chairs, which appeared identical to the chair Suzuki Satoru used when he logged into Yggdrasil for his final time.
The two were now ready to start diving into some DMMORPGs! The other girls made their way to the Dark Room as well as they wanted to watch this happen.
Nao and Chelsea even found a couple of titles to get familiarized with. Glory was a full blown fantasy game while Fantasy Arena was your typical player versus player game with select options to choose from!
And just like that, Nao and Chelsea dove into the virtual worlds and slowly got used to its feels!
Like this, the next two years passed by uneventfully. The rest of the girls got their identification squared away, each obtaining a chair, console and helmet of their own.
They even had to make a second Dark Room next to the first one to fit everyone in. And they too slowly got used to the virtual worlds, and they each took a liking to it.
Before Nao realized it, he had already spent a total of six years in this place. Only until recently did he start seeing advertis.e.m.e.nts in the virtual world waiting lobby for Yggdrasil, claiming it to be the next generation of DMMORPGs. It had a huge emphasis on how customization!
While its server opening approached, Nao managed to reserve fifteen for him and the girls.
Unfortunately during these six years, he didn't have any luck in finding those forty one people, both virtually and in the real world. But he was bound to meet them in Yggdrasil eventually. He would be choosing a Hetermorphic race after all.
It soon became the start of Year 2126 and Yggdrasil. the game everyone knows and loves, released to the general public.
It was time to dive into Yggdrasil!

A/N:
You guys really didn't think I would cover each DDMORPG before Yggdrasil, did you? Just a summary is enough (:
But these couple of chapters serve as a leeway for Yggdrasil and my take on Momonga's real world. Did you guys like it?
Yggdrasil starts next!
