A Girl's Life in a Gaming World -
Chapter 3: Beta Testers
"This world, this place, those creatures you have killed, and all the things you have experienced in this world are all real." Adam continued.
"If this is not a game, then why do I always respawn every time I die in the last 3-years fighting in this world?" Alex wondered.
Adam used his magic to make a small floating tree on their table, like a hologram.
"The reason why you can respawn for the last 3-years is that the body you are using in this world is not your real body. What you are using right now is just a vessel for your soul. Once a vessel gets destroyed, Yggdrasil will create a new vessel for your soul to transfer."
Adam paused for a moment, looking at the small tree in front of him then, continued.
"If creatures were born from the fruits of Yggdrasil." A fruit has suddenly fallen on the small tree. Then the fruit that has fallen became a small bird.
"Then your vessels are created from the leaves of Yggdrasil." Adam then looked at one of the tree's leaves that started falling to the ground.
"After your old vessel got destroyed. A leaf on the Yggdrasil will fall, then will slowly wither." The leaf that has fallen started to wither. Adam then waved his hand, removing the illusion in front of them.
Nevertheless, Alexandria is still not sure whether to believe Adam or not asked another question.
"If what you are truly saying is true then, then what if you are on the same side of Satan and you are just tempting me to revolt to my God?"
"What?! How can you say that to the young, friendly, and handsome face of mine? A devil's hideous face is nowhere near my handsome face, little one." Adam exclaimed while slamming the tea he was drinking at the table.
"Well, you see," Alexandria answered shyly, feeling guilty about what she said.
"You indeed have a very handsome face, I admit it. But in the story written on Earth of Adam and Eve, Adam and Eve were tempted by the devil. That is why the demigod you were saying punished Adam and Eve. What if you are also tempting me to go against God?"
"That story has been altered countless times due to it being passed from generation to generation. The true story of that is Eve found out the deception of the demigod from a coward arch dragon she had defeated. The dragon then told her our circumstances in exchange for sparing his life. Eve didn't believe it at first. That is why she left me a letter first and then went with me to try to confirm her replaceings to the demigod." Adam defended.
"And by the way, Satan, the Devil, you were talking about is the demigod of the demon race. demigods don't even dare get close to another demigod unless they are allies to avoid causing chaos." Adam answered as he poured another tea in his and her cup, seeing that it is already empty.
Feeling that Adam has calmed down a little, Alexandria asked another question.
"Then the demigod of Humans what was his/her name?"
"We also don't know. It never told us what it's called, nor have we seen its true face. So Eve and I decided to call him Light because every time we met, we can only see a blinding light in the shape of a human figure."
"Then, if Satan is from another world, does that mean that there is no such thing as hell and all humans who died goes to heaven?" Alexandria asked another question.
"You know, for someone who reached the end and does not easily believe in things, you sure ask a lot of questions." Adam exclaimed.
Feeling embarrassed by what Adam said, Alexandria looks away, pretending not to hear him.
"Anyway, Heaven and Hell don't even exist in the first place." Adam continued.
"What!? Then where do the people go the moment they die?" Alexandria asked further, shocked by what Adam said.
"Think of it this way: if Eve and I were the testers in the alpha test. What comes after the alpha test is the closed beta, and those people who died are the closed beta testers. During the closed beta stage, creatures who lost their lives in their world. Were given a second chance, transferring the fruit that holds their soul to form a new body in the world of Yggdrasil. They were then tasked to protect Yggdrasil. But once they die again, their souls would be gone, never to be seen again. Since their vessels are the fruit of Yggdrasil and each fruit is unique from one another. Unlike leaves that produced almost unlimitedly."
Even though exhausted from the things she was hearing. Alexandria asked another question to Adam. "Then why did Light kill at least 60% of the human's total population for a year."
"Closed beta has been going for almost two thousand years since the alpha test ended. A lot of humans died in that two thousand years of closed beta testing. They died from wars, pandemics, and natural causes. Humans did not notice anything wrong with it since it is all caused by something man-made or humans found the reason for the disasters, then found ways to prevent it. But Year 2022 is the last year of closed beta to end. So Light then made a scenario, saying that it is God's punishment so that humans would willingly enter their capsule and focus on the open beta test stage." Adam explained.
Adam explained further. "So if Eve and I are the alpha testers, the humans who died are the closed beta testers, then that makes you and all the people who used the virtual capsules the open beta testers."
"Do you have some water?" Dumbfounded Alexandria asked for some water to calm herself down.
With a snap of his hands, Adam summoned a cup of water in front of them. Giving it to Alexandria. "Here, have some."
"Thanks." Alexandria thanked Adam for being nice to her.
"No problem, you also need some time to rest you, fought hard alone for three years. You deserve it, take your time." Adam said as he sees the tiredness in her eyes. Adam can't hide those things from her since it is important for her to know those things.
A moment of silence occurred in the room as Alexandria collected her thoughts.
"If the three years of fighting I did is just a test, then does that mean I will face greater challenges and stronger opponents in the near future?" Alexandria asked after collecting her thoughts.
"Yes, but this time you will no longer be alone, other people might oppose you, but you will probably have comrades that will fight with you." Adam answered, shocked by what he sees in her eyes. Fire seems to be burning from Alexandria's eyes as if it thrilled her thinking about what's going to happen in the near future.
Adam thought in his mind "So that is the reason why she managed to survive until the end, I felt doubtful at first since she looks so stupid for asking a lot of questions. She doesn't know it, but this girl is a monster, a monster with an indomitable fighting spirit and a great instinct of a smart woman."
"There's a saying a wise woman asks, while a stupid person ignores," Adam mumbled.
"What did you say?" Alexandria hearing, Adam's mumbles, asked.
"Nothing, let me continue the contents of the 2nd letter. You definitely need to hear what Eve wanted to say to you." Adam said.
"We are now running out of time. We really must hurry now." Looking above with only 3 minutes' time left, Adam warned Alexandria.
"Okay" Alexandria replied, then stopped asking questions, understanding the direness of the situation.
