Chapter 1 - Wake Up As Mafia Boss (2/2)
”Oooh, what is it then? I'm very knowledgeable about the action-fantasy and sci-fi series like Divine Fantasy, Metal Tear and other notable games. Listen, I've been a gaming manager for almost ten years. I have experienced a lot of working habits such as working overnight, etc and led a lot of people to make our games successful. So, don't be shy and tell it to me right now, Mister. I'm hyped.”
”Fufu~, well then. Are you sure?”
”Of course, I am.”
”Haha, well then. Mr. Mura, because you asked for my miracle. I will give you a miracle.”
”What? Haha, you're joking. Who are you? The God —”
”— God. No other than the person you ask for your wish from.”
”Hahahaha!” Aljen covered his face with his left hand. ”Hahahaha! Shut it, will ya? Why would 'God' call me in the middle of the night? Listen, buddy, don't screw with me.” He hung up the phone and then suddenly, the phone rang again. When the word 'Unknown' changed to God, he felt creeped out. He then turned off the cellphone and put it inside his pocket however, the phone kept ringing. He then decided to throw his cell phone away for the second time.
”Thank goodness, Happy New Year!” he jumped a lot as the fireworks continue to explode above the sky. His happy face turned to gloom and creep out when he saw the fireworks.
”I'm the real God. Your wish is my command, Mr. Mura. Be a good boy in your world. Muwa!” The unknown voice gave him a flying kiss after it cast some spell around his body.
”Guaaaaaa!” the world spun and he screamed while darkness engulfed him.

Aljen Mura opened his eyes, rubbed them, and looked around, his upper body raised. In the left corner of the room was a 16th-century telescope, a world map hanging by the white-painted walls, several piles of old books and other artifacts lay scattered in his room.
”Gah, my head. Where am I?” he asked.
”What the heck?” he gently rubbed his cheeks. Why was he one of the villains in the RPG action game ”Mafioso”? The most daring and active antagonist of the story, the tyrannical coward who died from a suicide charge to kill the main characters.
Am I inside the game and playing a demo of the upcoming VR game? But that's impossible. This body of mine, my skin and how different my voice is… They, they seem too real!
And ‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒
Don't tell me!
”Out of all the people you could choose, why him? Why Hermes Archnemesis, Stump G?”
