Episode 1 Ideal World
/
by Suzuko Nemoto
We live in a world of peace and joy, a world without conflict. Apparently, this was considered the norm before I was born. People call that world the XANA Metaverse ......, the Ideal World. When I wake up in the morning, I look the way I want to look, eat the food I want to eat, and study the way I want to study. I could not understand what people meant when they said they were happy with such an ordinary thing. Because I was in that happiness since I was born, so it was a matter of course. But it seems to be the second generation. From the perspective of the first generation, it seems that they had a hard time in a negative world until they came to this world. People of the first generation often say that they felt firsthand that the world called Earth was coming to an end. In order to be free from suffering, the XANA metaverse, an ideal world, was created and a simulation was made to go to that positive world. Right now, as a world, they are divided between the negative world and the world of the XANA metaverse. ...... But I didn't have the courage to find out. Why do we have to go out of our way to make the happiness that we have now face unhappiness? Some people don't understand the meaning of knowing misfortune to savor happiness... I didn't want that to happen. But why? I had to know the world. Yes, the world had decided.

"Haruka, is your body okay...? Also, the metaverse?" Saying that, I looked at Haruka's white, slender body. Haruka enjoys the world beyond the machine desperately using the headset she used when playing old VR-related games. "Because Kei. If it's this Metaverse, you can leave this world full of mistakes and dream? I can walk the world with you." "But that's..." "I'm sorry I let you stay in this world... My body was perceived negatively, and I couldn't go anywhere, so you're still going with me... If it's true, you'll be in parallel after your ascension." I am a resident of the world.” "It's okay. The world after ascension will create its own residents and live in the same way." This was a common saying in those days. Ascension as soon as you attach it to something. It was certain that it would come. Suddenly, I saw an image in the depths of my eyes. Me in the Metaverse and Haruka also in the Metaverse. Spring flowers in this world... Then I understood. If I had to recover Haruka from this world and bring her back to the post-ascension world, Haruka in post-ascension world will disappear. But at the same time, as I am, my existence in the pre-ascension world and the post-ascension world began to mix. I'll help Haruka, and when that's all over, I'll have to return to my own world. But what should I do?

When we woke up, it was the usual XANA Metaverse world. Beautiful flowers, water surface, sky... "Good morning. Kei-san. Haruka-sama." My AI says so and wakes us up. And Haruka's AI was also standing next to mine. "Good morning. Haruka-san. Kay-sama." Is this... a town? Speaking of which, it felt like there was a major update. Let's go around with Haruka later and take a look. "Haruka, Haruka..." I wake up Haruka. Haruka was very relieved to see her usual avatar appearance... But Haruka didn't wake up. I ask the AI. "What happened to Haruka?" Then the AI ​​smiles and says, "The data may be corrupted. Would you like to send it in for repair?" If it breaks, fix it. That is the common sense in this world... AI is similar, and some people expect that they will send it in for repairs after each update and accidentally change to a new model. But it wasn't even a rumor because it was so unlikely.

"Kay, where shall we go after this? It seems that a new item has appeared in the second generation avatar..." That's what Haruka says, so I nod and say this. "Shall we go where Haruka wants to go?" Since the person I love wants to go, I don't want to go to a negative world before Ascension, but if it's not that kind of world, I'll generally go along with it. Cause we're dating... We have such a wonderful relationship that even AI has to admit it. After all, that day, I went around various places, but maybe I couldn't find a place that stuck with me, so I went around similar places. However, there was still a harvest. I was able to touch on what Haruka likes. After all, they probably wouldn't want to go to places that didn't suit their tastes, so going to similar places led to knowing Haruka's tastes. “Haruka, you have a wonderful hobby.” "... My hobby is a little different, though. The details are different." There were a few complaints, but it was still a happy day. Haruka wasn't broken, and we can spend a lot of time together again. And after that day, I never heard any rumors about the world breaking apart. The world seems to have become perfect.
