Chapter 1: Combat Cat Maid origin
The long-awaited update has arrived.
World’s first VRMMO fantasy RPG.
Many races, various professions, many skills, a game with a wide variety of playstyles.
After being on the market for a year, a major update is coming today.
It has been three years since my social withdrawal, I’m 15 years old now.
I came across this game a year ago. It’s called World Fantasy Online.
A fantasy game with a sense of reality.
I started playing a year ago. It is a life of gaming without school.
Sleep? I sleep properly for 8 hours a day.
I also get sleepy.
First is sleep, second is delicious food, third is gaming.
School?
Like I would go to such a foolish place.
I own stocks and cryptocurrency in this world.
I just deposit money and it steadily increases.
Such a simple game. I consider myself a genius for knowing such things other people have difficulty knowing.
If you sell information the money keeps increasing even more.
My parents said that school is a place to make friends.
Are friends delicious? Can I eat them?
Parents were too noisy, but after handing them 100 million yen, they went silent.
They didn’t come home anymore.
I bet they are playing around with my money.
When they run out, they will probably come back for more.
So I decided to move to a luxury apartment in a secret.
It’s a farewell to my parents.
I’m 15 years old, I got money, I can also cook. There’s no problem even if I live alone.
I can do all the household chores by myself so it's no problem.
Today I will start the game with this update for the first time.
The maintenance is complete.
The maintenance has been completed without a delay, I enter the game at once.
"Welcome back, miss Nicole. Would you like me to tell you about the new update?"
When I enter the game a woman in a maid outfit guides me.
When you begin the game for the first time, you can select either male or female as your guide.
I chose a cute maid without hesitation.
Butler is good, but I like maids more.
"It’s not necessary. Start as soon as possible please"
"Understood. Let’s start with the update’s campaign then"
"There’s such a thing?"
"There’s a present item for players with a year of gameplay"
"Really!"
If it’s playtime, I won’t lose to anyone.
I’m not a Shut-in for a show.
"Then, please choose your favorite item from this present box"
When the maid said so, countless treasure chests have appeared.
As far as I see, treasure chest, treasure chest, treasure chest. There are countless chests.
"Choose from all of this?"
"Yes, please choose your favorite"
She said to choose, but this number of chests…
Endless room with an unlimited number of treasure chests.
Worrying won’t solve the problem, so I decided to simply choose the chest under the maid’s feet.
All the other treasure chests disappeared when I took the one chest in my hands.
It seems I’m not able to reselect anymore.
When I open the treasure chest…
"What the hell is this…”
Item name: Legendary Combat Cat Maid set
Right hand Black cat Maid glove (Non-transferable)
Left hand White cat Maid glove (Non-transferable)
Right foot Black Maid Shoe (Non-transferable)
Left foot White Maid Shoe (Non-transferable)
Black and White Cat Maid dress.
I wanted to wear it but stopped because of its ridiculous looks.
I can’t wear this even in the game.
Even though I’m a hikikomori without any friends, I can’t wear something so embarrassing. Even transfer is impossible, I can only put it in the item box to rott.
Anyway, let’s confirm its effect just in case.
Black Maid’s glove
A glove of Attack, attack improves as the level increases.
White Maid’s glove
A glove of Defense, defense improves as level increases.
Black Maid’s shoe, White Maid’s shoe

The user won’t get tired of walking for a long period of time.

White Maid’s Dress (Back)

What is this cheat power, I would be invincible if worn at my level?
But I don’t have the courage to equip this costume.
But its power is going to waste.
"U~n"
If I endure the embarrassment I will get stronger, I’m troubled.
"Nicole-sama, is something wrong?"
"It’s nothing"
Well, I will not equip it at the moment, let’s think about it later.
"Please start the game"
"I’m sorry, there’s still a survey"
"What a hassle"
"I’m sorry, it’s a survey exclusively for customers who’ve played for a long time"
"Can’t be helped"
"Thank you very much. Is World Fantasy Online more fun than reality?"
"Of course it’s fun. Reality is boring"
"Do you have someone important in the real world?"
"Hmph, I don’t have such a thing"
Parents are mad for money, I don’t go to school so I don’t have any friends.
"Do you have a best friend in the real world?"
"No! These questions are really unpleasant"
"Do you have any important things in the real world?"
It continues asking questions without minding words.
"Maybe money~"
The questions continue.
Just how many questions do you have?
"Do you believe in god?"
"Religion? Of course, I don’t believe in it. I believe only your own power"
"The last question, do you think the Maid outfit is cute?"
"I think it’s cute. However, I don’t think I will wear it"
"Understood. Thank you for answering the survey"
The room becomes dazzlingly bright.
"Please enjoy your stay in the new world"
