Chapter 1: The Boy and the Demon Lord

 

A faint, unsettling noise crackled through the air.

 

The first place that the black-haired boy, adventurer Sora, arrived at was a vast, symmetrically-columned dark floor.

 

The only light came from the moonlight streaming through a large window.

 

The eerily quiet and expansive space gave the impression of a boss room, if one were to interpret it in a meta way.

 

According to the game, the starting city, Yggdrasil, should have begun in a square with a large tree reaching up to the sky in front of him…

 

But this, clearly, was something entirely different.

 

After walking a short distance, Sora peered out through the large window.

 

First, a castle-like wall came into view, and in the distance, he could see a castle town without any lights.

 

Could this be some kind of ancient castle?

 

While observing his surroundings, Sora touched one of the stone columns and smiled at the feel of it.

 

Hmm, as expected from a game that pursues high quality.

 

The difference between this and reality is so indistinguishable compared to other VR games.

 

In VR games, it’s common for objects to lack texture to reduce data usage, but this game seems to pay attention to even the finest details.

 

The column felt cold but with a rough, tangible mass.

 

The shadows cast by the moonlight adhered to the physical laws, properly forming at his feet.

 

And most importantly, his virtual body moved without any discrepancy compared to his real self.

 

He was even moved by the fact that each finger moved without any glitches or distortions.

 

This could be promising.

 

Sora, smiling at the high quality of the game, then heard footsteps as if something was approaching.

 

“…What is it?”

 

Clank, clank.

 

From the light footsteps, it didn’t seem to be the usual patrolling knights in armor within the castle.

 

As he remained cautious, the footsteps grew closer and eventually revealed a figure under the moonlight.

 

“…A girl?”

 

It was a beautiful silver-haired girl of about his own age, wearing a black dress adorned with ominous-looking armor.

 

She looked somewhat surprised to see the intruder, Sora.

 

The quality of the graphics was stunning.

 

The natural movements of the girl had such grace and conveyed such intent that it was almost an illusion of a real person being there.

 

Having played various VR games before, he found himself thinking she was “the most beautiful” being he had ever seen.

 

C-Could she be a princess?

 

W-What should I say?

 

‘How do you do?’

‘Pleased to meet you, m’lady?’

 

I’m a player with zero experience in romance.

 

I have absolutely no experience to handle such an unexpected encounter.

 

What on earth should I do?

 

Inside, Sora was flustered.

 

The beautiful girl chuckled softly at his reaction and slowly drew a decorated sword from her waist.

 

Was she a princess who speaks through her sword!?

 

Surprised, Sora glanced at his own basic sword, the ?Normal Sword?, equipped on his left hip, and readied himself.

 

However, unless he was mistaken, the name displayed above the girl’s head had read:

 

?The Demon Lord of Calamity?, Shaitan.

 

Could it be…

 

Could it be that she’s the final boss?

 

As evidence, while his own life gauge was a single green bar, the enemy’s life gauge was a full ten red bars.

 

He didn’t know her level, but the equipment she wore and her beauty, which was so striking it could make any ordinary girl flee barefoot, made it clear that she was no mere mob character.

 

She definitely seemed like a unique, one-of-a-kind character.

 

To be honest, from the way things looked, even if he were to stand on his head, he didn’t seem to stand a chance.

 

This wasn’t… a tutorial, right?

 

Analyzing the situation, the only answer I could come up with was that it seemed almost hopeless.

 

After all, the opponent was a Demon Lord.

 

It was a situation where defeat seemed almost certain.

 

Nothing about the information I had gathered fit this scenario.

 

It might even be a release-day bug.

 

Ignoring Sora’s confusion, the Demon Lord approached and said:

 

“Hmph, to appear before me with such a low level, how foolish of an adventurer you are.”

 

Without further ado, the sword swung down from the upper right to the lower left.

 

Calmly assessed, it seemed impossible to properly block the attack with my sword.

 

Rather than thinking, I acted.

 

With years of VR experience, I managed to evade the attack and drew my initial weapon, the ?Normal Sword?.

 

Angling the blade, I deflected the blow to prevent my sword from being cleaved in two.

 

The Demon Lord’s strike sent sparks flying and missed its mark, instead slashing into the stone floor.

 

It left a massive cut on the floor.

 

—Alright, it was a trial by fire, but there’s no discrepancy in my movements!

 

With my heart racing, I was thrilled at successfully deflecting the attack using the skills I’d honed in the VR game ?Sword Master?, and took a step back to create distance from the Demon Lord.

 

“…Incredible.”

 

The Demon Lord’s eyes widened in surprise at my successful deflection of the initial attack, despite being at level 1 with no class.

 

But she didn’t seem agitated.

 

Once she regained her composure, she faced me with her empty left hand.

 

Then, she cast a magic circle and unleashed a massive flame.

 

It was the highest-tier fire magic, ?Inferno Flame?, that I’d seen countless times in TV commercials.

 

The raw power coursing through him sent shivers down his spine. It was undeniable.

 

Even a glancing hit would probably be fatal.

 

Naturally, Sora had no means to defend against or evade the wide-area magical attack with his current abilities.

 

So, in a desperate attempt to find a sliver of hope, he turned his back on the Demon Lord and sprinted toward the shadow of a pillar with all his might.

 

But with his starting stats, it seemed impossible to make it in time.

 

The option he chose was the charging skill ?Sonic Sword?, which he had confirmed was available from the start of the game.

 

Originally, a skill move that meant to be unleashed on monsters was now being used on a pillar as a target.

 

“Come on, make it in timeeeeeee!”

 

With the skill’s effect, his body accelerated rapidly.

 

While feeling the searing heat of the flames even without touching them, he dove headfirst into the pillar just before being consumed.

 

Sora successfully hid behind the pillar in the nick of time.

 

The approaching flames collided with the pillar, splitting and passing by him on either side.

 

“Well, this is interesting.”

 

The Demon Lord was impressed by the level 1 adventurer’s extraordinary perseverance.

 

She then approached him, seemingly unguarded and casually.

 

In a desperate gamble, Sora decided to act.

 

He waited for the right moment, then sprang out, positioning his ?Normal Sword? sideways to activate the thrust skill he had learned at the start.

 

A slashing attack was launched instinctively to the right, but Sora, focused, lowered his stance and evaded it.

 

Successfully closing in, he twisted his body and enveloped his sword with a faint glow.

 

The name of the attack skill he chose was ?Strike Sword?.

 

Twisting his body, he thrust his sword with all his might into the Demon Lord’s unprotected chest.

 

However, as expected from an attack by a completely untrained level 1 player, the Demon Lord’s health bar didn’t decrease even a millimeter.

 

The Demon Lord smirked at the childish attack.

 

As if to return the favor, she readied her sword and unleashed the same thrust skill, ?Strike Sword?, accompanied by a black flash.

 

“Gah!?”

 

This time, Sora took a hit so swift it was almost impossible to see, and he was pinned against the pillar behind him.

 

In the corner of his vision, a notification appeared indicating that the realistic damage had been cut due to the player’s safety mechanism.

 

The health bar in the top-right corner of the screen, originally at the maximum of ’20’, had naturally dropped to ‘0’.

 

As he lost strength in his limbs and became immobilized, fused with the pillar by his sword, his body gradually turned into particles of light.

 

Well, losing was inevitable.

 

Given that defeat was certain no matter what he did, he felt no real frustration.

 

As he accepted his loss with this detached perspective, the Demon Lord leaned in so close that her nose almost touched his, and she began to create a magic circle with her right hand.

 

Oh… so this game doesn’t just end with losing?

 

Sora felt a slight jolt from the Demon Lord’s close-up beauty. Unable to imagine what might happen next, he felt a bit of excitement despite the situation being entirely out of place.

 

To him, the Demon Lord said with admiration:

 

“I commend your bravery for facing me even as a level 1. I shall give you this as a gift.”

 

“A… gift…?”

 

“A special gift to ensure that you cannot escape from me, whom I have taken a liking to. Accept it gratefully, Adventurer Sora.”

 

The magic circle was cast onto Sora’s chest, and something unknown began to rewrite him from within.

 

This was crazy. He couldn’t stop the excitement from this unexpected defeat route.

 

This was a development unlike anything seen online.

 

Moreover, a defeat route means that something unusual was likely awaiting him ahead.

 

He was indeed venturing into uncharted territory.

 

No gamer could resist being excited about this.

 

—Demon Lord Shaitan, I will definitely come back to defeat you!

 

That was a vow he made in his heart.

 

As the Demon Lord smiled down at him, Sora’s body completely vanished, and his vision darkened.

    AI’s will be the strongest as they immediately inhibit aromatization, and consequently, lower serum estrogen levels.
    SERM’s do not inhibit aromatization or lower estrogen ranges, however they do bind to the estrogen receptors
    preventing the hormone from binding. While AI’s are the best, many will
    find SERM’s are all they need, and this will be necessary to recollect after we
    dive into the possible cardiovascular unwanted effects of Equipoise.
    While steroid use is commonly linked to increased
    aggression, a phenomenon sometimes often known as
    “roid rage,” its exact influence on violence and
    behavioral issues just isn’t fully recognized.
    A comprehensive therapy plan ensures all features of steroid abuse
    are addressed, leading to a simpler and lasting restoration. Anabolic steroids are extremely effective in enhancing muscle mass and energy but include severe
    bodily and psychological risks, particularly at the supraphysiological doses used
    illicitly. Their use stays a big public well being concern, demanding further analysis on long-term effects and improved prevention methods.
    People usually take anabolic steroids by either injecting them instantly into
    the muscle or taking tablets. They can also come within the type of lotions or gels that are applied directly to the skin.For instance,
    a person might take the medicine for a period of time and then cease
    for some time. The use of anabolic steroids for muscle growth and athletic
    efficiency, however, just isn’t thought of a legal
    or safe use of this drug.
    So, when sufferers increase their testosterone
    levels, the neurotransmitters sign the bones to cease growing.
    Due To This Fact, when anabolics are given to kids throughout puberty, the medication can inhibit
    bone improvement and cause stunted growth. In one
    other examine by medical doctors from California, it was
    reported that people of all ages who use AAS may
    expertise tendon injury or tendon rupture. When it comes to
    energy sports, including bodybuilding, powerlifting, and Olympic weightlifting, anabolic steroids are broadly used to increase muscle mass, energy, and energy output (5).
    Normal testosterone levels vary from 300–1,000 ng/dL for men and 15–70 ng/dL for women.
    This will mean maintaining the entire dose and duration of use in a proper
    range. Regardless of the dose, if virilization signs begin to happen you’re strongly encouraged to discontinue use.

    If use is discontinued at the onset of symptoms, they may fade away quickly.
    If the symptoms appear, are ignored and use continues they may very nicely turn out to be irreversible.

    Most data on the long-term results of anabolic steroids in humans come from case stories somewhat than formal epidemiological
    studies. Serious and life-threatening adverse results may be
    underreported, especially since they could occur a few years
    later. One animal study found that exposing male mice for one fifth of their lifespan to
    anabolic steroid doses comparable to those taken by human athletes caused
    a high frequency of early deaths eighty two.

    To decrease the chance of liver toxicity attributable
    to Trenbolone use, people ought to limit their use of the drug.
    High doses or extended use of Trenbolone can improve the risk of liver toxicity and other antagonistic effects.

    Dianabol is another very commonly used AAS with Deca or NPP.
    Nandrolone dosing and administration are
    comparatively uncomplicated, and with this being a steroid
    that bodybuilders have been utilizing for many years, we now have an excellent understanding of the simplest ways to make use of it.
    With the two major Nandrolone esters having very
    totally different half-lives, the one you’re utilizing will determine your dosing schedule and how typically you inject.
    One of Nandrolone’s most precious effects is its constructive advantages in your joints.

    Some individuals (both bodybuilders and males on TRT) use it at low
    doses purely for joint support CrazyMass Deckadrolone benefits to alleviate pain within the knees,
    shoulders, and elbows. The legendary Deca-Durabolin, or simply Deca as it’s
    recognized, is a steroid that hardly wants an introduction. It can take till week 5
    and even six before you start feeling the consequences of Deca-Durabolin, so it is a steroid that you need a longer-term outlook on when utilizing.

    demonstrating the everlasting effects of steroids during old
    age (via the method of muscle memory).
    Like all areas of medicine, advances in performance drug testing are constantly ongoing
    and under research. This brings about new strategies that may or may not turn out to be standard and
