The starting arc is a bit dark, but the MC will be slowly getting stronger Becoonist!

She's 11 years old yet quite worldly in soe

Well then, until she gets her vengeance, let us all watch over the journey of ”The White Girl”

”Yggdrasia welcomes you!”

Virtual reality (VR), as known to the public, began its first steps with a purely visual-and-aural-only systeed to replicate all sensations, and full-dive systey quickly made itself indispensable in a multitude of industries

And of course, it was also the heyday for VR games Worlds of dreams and fantasy were realized upon servers, only liination People waited with bated breath for the next invention, the next leap forward

That hen a conglo from a certain first-world country, joined the VRMMO scene They began recruiting beta testers for their MMORPG from all over the planet

Created by a company famed for their work in the overname instantly beca over the ten thousand slots allowed for the beta test So grand, so fascinating was the newly-revealed world, that people wondered if this wasn't actually interdimensional travel instead

Applicants were chosen based on their age, sex, character, employment, education, health, criminal history, and other factors And for the lucky ten thousand, what awaited thedrasia A land centered around the towering World Tree, and ninety-nine of its saplings supported the continents with a combined size equivalent to Earth

Of course, the game industry was no exception Players were allowed so, but in most cases, their avatars were almost carbon copies of their real bodies

Thus, our tester, as appeared in the AI guide's roos, looked the same as her scanned body in real life If there was a real hu this process, they would have immediately intervene when they heard the AI call the tester ”an adorable rabbit”
