MMORPG: Rebirth as an Alchemist-Novel

Ren broke the jewel in his hands when everyone left, and no one lingered except for him. After seconds of waiting, Princess Elena arrived garbed in her hunting gear and armor.

"Finally. I thought this day would never come!" she said with a passion and looked at Ren. "What are you just standing there for? Let's go!"

The portal to the Fey Realm was a shimmering gateway that glowed with an otherworldly light, pulsing and humming with magical power.

As the players stepped into the portal, they were enveloped in a brilliant, white light that seemed to fill every fiber of their being. It was as if they were standing in the midst of a thousand stars, each one shining with pure, radiant energy that surged through them.

At first, they felt a sense of disorientation, as if their very sense of self was being pulled apart and reassembled. But as the light began to fade, a new sensation took hold.

The air around them seemed to crackle with magic as if they were standing at the very edge of reality itself. They felt a tingling in their fingertips and a sense of weightlessness in their bodies like they were floating on the cusp of a great unknown.

And then, as the light faded completely, they found themselves in a world unlike any they had ever known. The colors were brighter, the sounds more vibrant, and the very air seemed to hum with a life force that they had never felt before.

It was a feeling of excitement and adventure tempered by a sense of awe and wonder. They knew that they had been transported to a place of great power and magic, and they could feel that power coursing through their veins.

The Fey Realm was a place of eternal twilight, where the sun never rose nor set, and the stars shone bright and clear in the sky. It was a place where magic reigned supreme, and the laws of nature were twisted and distorted by the whims of powerful faerie beings.

The landscape of the Fey Realm was a dizzying array of surreal and fantastical landscapes, where forests of giant mushrooms and towering crystals stretch towards the sky and rivers of liquid silver flow through fields of rainbow-colored grass. Strange and wondrous creatures roam the land, from mischievous sprites to beautiful phoenixes and wonderful orchid dragons and everything in between.

The hunters were on their toes to capture every beast their eyes could see. All of them were new and had never been encountered.

However, the Fey Realms were not without its dangers. The fairies were capricious and unpredictable, and their tricks and illusions could lead even the most seasoned adventurers astray. And lurking in the shadows were darker forces, ancient and malevolent beings that sought to corrupt and destroy all that was good and beautiful in this magical realm.

When Ren appeared, his plan to keep Princess Elena unnoticed in the Fey Realm had failed miserably. He even went a few minutes late in hopes that the others had already left. He also hoped that the players were too caught up in their own adventures in the Fey Wilds and would not pay much attention to the Elven Princess's presence.

However, Ren had made a grave miscalculation by underestimating her captivating aura and beauty.

As soon as Princess Elena appeared, all eyes were drawn to her, and the players stopped in their tracks, mesmerized by her ethereal grace and charm. She stood tall and regal, with a radiant smile that could light up the darkest corners of the realm. Her flowing platinum blonde hair shimmered in the magical light, and her emerald-green eyes sparkled with enchantment.

Ren quickly realized his mistake, and his heart sank as he watched the players gather around the Princess, eager to hear her story and offer their assistance.

"Are you a player?"

"Elena. What a beautiful name."

"If you don't mind, you can join our group. A beautiful lady such as yourself, along with a shady guy, is asking for trouble."

The shady guy they were talking about was Ren, of course.

Ren didn't rise to their rouse and observed the situation. He was caught surprised that Black Lions' numbers suddenly soared, and it was because they had teamed up with Great Dynasty and other smaller guilds.

Fate Alliance teamed up with Golden Phoenix. White Unicorn with Sleeping Dragon. And the others did the same.

This seemed to be an interesting turn of events, Ren said to himself. Though he was slightly disappointed that Sleeping Dragon and Black Lion didn't team up, so he could focus on a single enemy.

With White Unicorn teaming up with Sleeping Dragon while Golden Phoenix grouped with Fate Alliance, Ren couldn't help White Unicorn and Golden Phoenix in this case. His emotions would simply get in the way.

Golden Phoenix must have teamed up with Fate Alliance because they were in the same school while Ren didn't have a clue at why White Unicorn would grouped with Sleeping Dragon.

"Is that right?" Elena beamed, and the simps' faces brightened with hope.

"If you can defeat this guy, then I'll think about it," the Princess said, nodding in Ren's way.

Ren, who was just minding his own business, suddenly stopped and whipped his head in the Princess's direction.

What did she say?

Ren didn't have time to think of a comeback when a youth eager to prove himself to the beauty charge with his sword. Since they were already in the Fey Realm, no one cared about Ren, whether he lived or died.

Though they momentarily forgot that Ren was the holder of the original quest, and without him, no one could clear the quest.

But that didn't stop the new fans of the Princess from attacking him.

Ren didn't have to strain any effort as a loud blast halted the youths from attacking.

They stopped when they noticed the gaping hole in one of the approaching guys.

"How shameless, ten against one?" Isolde flung her shotgun over her shoulder, which Ren believed was named Isolde 2.0.

Isolde bobbed her head to the side and gave a rueful grin. "Do you mind if I joined in? Just to even the numbers."

The others quickly drew their weapons, but when they found that it was Isolde from Guns and Knives, they all hesitated.

Isolde was about to go to Ren when a sharp fist hit her on the head, drilling it with a vengeance.

"What are you doing? Stop making trouble for our guild. You have already done enough!" Xian shouted at her, fist still on her head.
