Chapter 3 by MeedrowH MeedrowH

Okay, first. What does he do?

Let's have a look at this anime body (and receive a ton of notifications)

He looked around. Again and again, he gazed at everything. His computer, clothes, phone. Walls, windows... everything looked exactly as he had left it. Well, aside from the fact that everything was drawn like in an anime, that is.

Aaron took a few deep breaths. He wasn't expecting this to be so... weirdly real. He slowly reached out and touched his phone, then his computer, walls of his apartment. He felt the wall's smooth texture under his fingertips, the edges of his phone, weight of his keyboard. It was all real, and at the same time, not real. Surreal, unreal... too many 'reals' here.

He sighed deeply. His body was feeling fine, better than fine, even. He stretched ever so slightly, and his limbs felt more alive than ever. He immediately did a few push-ups, and with contentedness confirmed that he had more strength that he remembered. His physical condition was strengthened. It wasn't a significant increase, but he still felt it.

Slowly, he got up. Everything was so new to him. He knew what to expect, but he still couldn't believe it. He really was in an anime-like world. Wait, but did it mean...? He rushed to the bathroom, and looked in the mirror.

He had simple face features, and all of them were simplified to anime-style. His face took on a little sharp shape, his already small nose seemed even smaller, and his eyes were enlarged ever so little. No, actually, it was mostly his iris' and pupils. Even though his field of view didn't change, they were larger than before. His hair, normally disheveled a little, were now licked nicely and a bit longer, hanging lightly on his forehead.

But Aaron wasn't disappointed with his look. Actually, he felt ecstatic. He looked better than in real life (or it was just a deviation of his worldview due to watching a ton of anime? Who knew), and felt better, too.

However, such pondering could be left for later. He turned his phone on, intending on checking the hour, and suddenly, a holographic display appeared in front of him.

[Basic information:

He quickly turned off the phone before he got epilepsy trying to read all of the piling panels. Seriously, he read through the 4 first ones that appeared, but there were many more that tried to invade his field of view. But, when he thought about what he saw, one thing stood out to him. 'Current' Physical Form.

He knew that his avatar was possible to be changed somewhat in the Simulation (at the cost of the universally used crypto-currency, uru), but... he never really gave it much thought. As much as he was dissatisfied with his looks, he did consider alterations made by the Simulation to be... a little too much. After all, to him, it wouldn't be different from plastic surgery, and he felt weird about this prospect. No, he wouldn't let himself be changed like that, even if he considered himself to look mediocore at best. Perhaps that was the reason he never got a girlfriend? Perhaps.

He put his phone down for a moment. Goddamn. He really wanted to check the Simulation out, but he needed to get through the notifications and other panels that wanted to **** his eyes just now. After he did that, he'd probably be able to go and do whatever he wanted.

Slowly, he fired up his phone again. Then, he ordered the system:

"Sort the messages from oldest to youngest, show them one at a time." Voice commands were an amazing feature. They were even better when one took into account that since Hentai Simulation had direct access to everyone's brains, the commands themselves were always carried out 100% accurately to the thoughts.

Suddenly, the multitude of notifications disappeared, only showing one. It was a small greeting.

[Welcome to the Nexus simulation. Due to influence of current users, the common name for the simulation became 'Hentai Simulation'. Please be understanding, and remember that if you wish, you may command for the system to use the original naming in its messages to you. Until you turn that setting off, 'Hentai Simulation' will be the name used by default.]

[Please remember that main panels will not show all settings and statistics. Things like hunger, pain sense, thirst etc. can be found in the panel 'Additional statistics' or 'Additional settings'.]

[You have received 1000 Uru to begin your journey. Do remember that this currency is universal to all sub-simulations, but currencies from sub-sims can only be used within their confines. Exchanges between Uru and other forms of cash is possible only in sub-sims.]

[Uru may be used to purchase body modifications in the main simulations, both temporary and permanent.]

[There is a selection of free articles of clothing for you to use as you wish, changeable at any time even in sub-sims. However, you may also create your own style of clothing, as well as buy clothes designed by other users. Both ways cost Uru depending on the clothes.]

[...]

[...]

[...]

Aaron kept on reading through the panels one by one, explaining basics of the world to him. Still, a thought in the back of his mind appeared. Didn't he say he didn't want an introduction? Then why was he seeing all those clearly introductory displays?

"System." He said. "Why are you showing me this? I told you I don't want an introduction."

[Correct, Aaron. You skipped introduction to the Hentai Simulation itself. However, the introductions you are seeing now are introductions to different systems operating in the main simulation. Would you like to skip those as well?]

"Yes." He replied without hesitation. "I want to go and explore already."

[Understood.]

Suddenly, all the panels disappeared, and the basic 4 appeared. Breathing a sigh of relief, he turned his phone off, and was surprised to see a smartwatch appear on his wrist. It had a simple design, just a tiny display on a black strap. However, there was a very unusual thing about it. It was semi-translucent.

[A recommended choice, smartwatch. Can read time, connect to other users. Price: 500 Uru. Price for ability to customize: +250 Uru. Would you like to buy a smartwatch?]

'Seems like a scam...' He thought momentarily, but then thought about it differently. If he could gather money wherever he wanted and it would automatically transform to Uru, didn't it mean he'd be able to gather money either way? He knew that in the Simulation, so long he willed it, hunger and thirst were disabled, so he didn't have to worry about getting food anymore.

"Whatever. I want to buy it. No need for customization options though."

[Understood. 500 Uru paid. You have 500 Uru left. You obtained smartwatch.]

Aaron dismissed the notification, bringing the smartwatch a little closer to his head instead. As he taped on it lightly with his right hand, the thing lit up, showing him a holographic clock. 5:24 PM. He had some time before sun would set. For now, he'll be going.

What to do?
