Chapter 1 Prologue

"Die, you dumb shit!!!!" 

On a certain Saturday, which was a holiday for a certain clerk working for a bank, he spends his day playing video games. He always spent his time gaming for more than 20 hours/day on his day off. 

The name of the man is, William Growfield. 23 years of age. Hobby playing video games whenever he had spare times for it, but never did he neglected his responsibilities. 

His hair is raven-black buzz cut. Face is stern and strict-like. With eyes that were combined with his facial feature, he would be called a Hitman or a Secret Service Agent. His height is average at 183 cm, but the muscle he has further enhances the impression that he is actually a Hit Man instead of a bank clerk.

His personality is good, many people who understood him always saw him in a good light. Polite, dedicated to what he does, diligent, and so on. A very dependable man which could give several women the feeling of security.

But, he is still single despite being desired by several women. It was because he loves to play video games so much that he would rather play video games instead of hanging out with friends, or going on a date. Ah, but he never do missed his work-out. He believes that with a healthy body, he would have much more stamina to play games, that's the reason why he worked out until he got the body he currently has.

He basically played all kind of genre. First-person Shooter, Shoot em Up, RPG, RTS, Racing, even down to Erotic Game. He did enjoy Visual Novel, but he never considered it a game.

Right now, William is playing the currently famous First-person Shooter game, called OverClock.

Whenever he was playing a competitive games with others online, all kind of vile words not meant for the ears to hear were being spitted out by that mouth of his which was usually polite. Especially if it was a game like OverClock. 

Just because he often said all kind of swearing and curses it doesn't meant that he was bad with the game. In fact, he's very good at it to the point that he beat the E-sport world champion of OverClock, with a 90% percentage of winning. He didn't know of course. He was even being invited to join the Champion's team via email but he ignored it. Actually, because that team often had showdowns with him, they became the world champion for two consecutive years.

Although he likes all kind of games, currently he is focusing only on OverClock, GranTheft 8, and Last Imagine 20. Since he became a working adult, he only has Saturday and Sunday to play the games. So he won't be playing another until he finished GranTheft and Last Imagine.

In OverClock, his winning percentage is 89%, with more than thousands kill count, and he only got killed around hundreds times. Amongst the other players, his kill count is second to none. He also has a lot of Game Trophies for his achievements.

On GranTheft 8, his character has amassed wealth and power as a mafia. From Weapon Factory business, all kind of dirty businesses, and even clean businesses such as toy's store. He has already completed 70% of the game, main story wise.

Then on Last Imagine 20, he had completed the main story. He had collected all the Myth class equipments, and learned all kind of skills and magicks for his characters, making him as one of the best players in this MMORPG. All that's left was the Side Stories and Side Missions which difficulty spiked so high it couldn't be beaten unless a lot of Maxed characters with good players did a good teamwork did the quests together.

Lately, he spent 8 hours for OverClock, 8 hours for Last Imagine, and 4 hours for GranTheft on his days off. Leaving only a total of 4 hours to sleep, eat, and a bath. On his days off, he didn't work out.

Ah by the way, when he's playing the FPS and MMORPG, he never did video communication, just through voice chat. And even that's using voice change as a woman. Of course, with the way he spoke, everyone knew it's a guy down the chat line. He even said so himself that he's a guy.

There's actually the reason for that. His voice when he used it for swearing and cursing was TOO menacing. Because of it, his old account got banned permanently due to the intensity of his voice and swearing. He was crying then, that his game account he worked up so long gotten banned. So, by using an adult woman voice, it reduces the intensity by a whole lot. 

The world is an unfair place after all. 

"Huuu...just a little bit more and I will be finished with GranTheft. I think by next Saturday I'd be done with it. What game should I play next?"

More than a day had passed, now it's Sunday evening at 10 o'clock. He needs to rest because he has work tomorrow. Just because he is a game addict, it doesn't mean that he'd ruin his health by lacking time to rest. So, after taking a bath and brushes his teeth, he goes to sleep. It doesn't take long for him to be fast asleep.

==============================================================

In the morning,

Right after he woke up, he washed his face and did some fitness routine. It took him 2 hours since he woke up, so now it's 6 in the morning.

Then, he got ready for work. Prepared some healthy breakfast not lacking any nutrients, before finally went to work at 7.

It took an hour to reach the bank he is working in, but the bank itself would only be opened at 8:30. He always came 30 minutes early in case something happen on the way. The employee got fined when they're late.

Once he's done putting down his stuff in his locker, he headed to his station.

It's such an odd scene that somebody who's like a Hitman would tend the front desk. But to every guest who visited the bank often, there's nothing for them to fear. In fact he's such a good and dependable staff for both the guests and his colleagues. He doesn't have any criminal record too.

It's actually shocked the Human Resource Department that such a man was asking to be a clerk than a security. But due to that, the HRD got complimented because they didn't judged the book by its cover.

The clock shows 8:30, William Growfield's busy day begun.

==============================================================

An hour before lunch break, at 12:30.

Two men, dressed casually entered the bank. They brought a violin case on their back. 

One of them headed towards the furthest clerk from William, while the other headed towards him.

The one who was headed towards him paused for a bit when he walked. William noticed that this is probably this guest first visit. The guest probably realized that he's not a security because he's tending the desk and he got ID in front of his chest.

Then all of sudden....

*Bang bang bang*

William got shot at the center of his chest by two bullets, and one last bullet on his neck.

Before he completely lost consciousness, he heard "hand over the money!!! Now!!"

Ah, it's a bank robbery he thought.

His injuries weren't that fatal, but the robbery wasn't being handled fast enough, and he received no first aid.

Once the incident was over, and the medic had came, it's already too late. William died of blood lost after being shot thrice.

Thus, the beginning of the man who would be called The Avatar of Death in the future of another world.
