[[[[[[[[[[Chapter Starts from here]]]]]]]]]]]

Tang Qin had been playing games ever since he graduated from the university. At first, he started playing games to distract himself because he was not able to find a job. He started streaming when his friends suggested that he might become a good streamer since his gameplay was very good.

He started streaming and response was not good at the start and he found a job too but since he developed the taste of playing games, he spent his nights playing and streaming.

Slowly his fan base grew and he could earn more from streaming, he quit his job to become a full-time game streamer. This way he was able to do what he loved and earn, too.

3 months ago, a company called "Evolutioners" released a cloud-based game "Adventure in Raeclasia". He became addicted to this game. Whether it was the graphics or the storyline or the quests that were unique only to this game, all were top class.

The most important thing was that the stuff you learned in-game could be applied in real life.

Most of the quests in the game had to be solved using real-world knowledge which resulted in many players choosing the profession that they were associated with in real life.

Tang Qin had become a fan of the company.

He logged in-game as usual and opened the chat bar to message his party members and tell them that he was online and his location in-game.

Just when he was about to type, he noticed a blinking icon that had the shape of a mic.

He clicked on it and text started to appear.

"This is a new function that is being introduced into the game. You can now speak and your voice will automatically be converted to text."

Tang Qin started to wonder why this feature was introduced because the game already had the function of voice chat.

"Well, let's try it and see what's good about it."

He started to speak what he wanted to tell his party member and to his surprise, as soon he began to speak, text started to appear in the chatbox and there was no error. When he finished speaking, the text was also complete. There was no error whatsoever.

He got interested in it. He started to speak in different accents and in funny voices but to his surprise, the only error that it showed was when he spoke too softly.

"Wow! This is awesome. I wonder if this software is available outside the game."

Just when he was experimenting with this new function, his buddy replied.

"Oye Tang, are you alright. Why are you sending me rubbish messages."

Only then Tang Qin noticed that he had been sending all this testing talk to his friend. So he replied.

"Sorry Guan! I was testing the new function."

A reply soon came.

"Oh, I also noticed that the game was updated. According to the update notes, we can now carry out simple conversations with NPC���s"

After seeing the message from his friend, Tang Qin realized that there was also a message sign blinking in the upper left corner of the screen.

He clicked on it and saw the message about the game update.

"Game version 0.11:

Privacy setting menu improved.

Voice to text feature introduced.

NPC's can now carry out simple conversations.

New Quests added.

New profession added.

Player report feature introduced.

Reputation feature introduced. (You can now earn reputation with NPCs which will affect your reward upon quest completion"

Though this update was minor but what got his interest most, was the update to NPC conversations.

"So this is why they introduced this voice to text feature."

He quickly finished logging in and went straight toward the adventurer's guild and met the female NPC at the counter. This NPC was famous among players as she was beautiful and she gave quests that had high exp rewards.

He went to her and said in his mic.

"Hello, Miss Merry."

The NPC looked at him and smiled. The text started to appear on the screen soon after.

"How are you, adventurer? How can I help you?"

Tang Qin showed a mischievous smile on his face and said.

"Miss Merry, I love you, so can you be my girlfriend?"

The Smile on the NPC's face faded and she showed a face filled with contempt.

"Young adventurer, you lack money and achievement. First, become something worthwhile then ask me again. If that is all, then stop wasting my time."

She ignored him and looked away.

Tang Qin was in awe, he felt that the only thing that was missing was the voice. Everything else was perfect. The expression, her reply both looked real.

He started to talk with many different NPCs and each one gave a unique answer. He was having fun with this new update and was enjoying the game.

He was not the only one who showed this behavior. Many other players also followed the same pattern.

They were happy with this update and were praising the company.

In the "Evolutioners" Office, Tang Ru was walking in the hall and many programmers were busy typing. He would guide them from time to time and check their progress.

It has been 5 days since he started learning the program sent to him by Boss. As instructed, he started to teach other programmers in the department after he was done learning.

Of course, only those who had signed the new confidentiality contract were eligible to learn. He guided them and helped them understand different parts of the program which were too complex for them.

After they were done integrating the voice to text program with the game and upgrading the game as they were instructed, they released the update notes.

Just 2 hours after releasing the update, players stormed the game. This new feature of being able to talk with the NPC was very hot among players.

He had predicted this and the IT department had already been notified to handle the sudden surge in player numbers.

He went back to his office and his PC turned on as soon as he sat on his chair. He opened the chat tool and typed.

"Update is done. No problems detected so far."
