The Princess of Death

Chapter 1: The Devil of Pure White

A woman woke up from a deep sleep. She felt some pain in her back, she was laying on the hard floor of rock. It was dark and she couldn’t see anything.

She got up while placing her hand on her head. Feeling a little dizzy, she took some steps. The only thing she could hear was the sound of the swift breeze passing by and water droplets hitting the rocks.

“Ah… What is happening? Wasn’t I supposed to be in my room?”

Multiple thoughts were passing through her head. Was she kidnapped and now the perpetrators would want her family to pay money for her release?

“Well, I have no one at all, and I am not a person that you can say possesses a lot of money…”

She kept walking until she saw a source of light. There was a lake.

It felt like she was many days without drinking anything, so she hurried to drink as much water as she could.

But something shocked her. The reflex on the water wasn’t hers.

“Nirvana Elleanore… My character from Elysian.”

In contrast to her usual dark hair, the woman, Sarah Koch, now had a long, completely white hair. Her eyes were of a shade between blue and green, and she was wearing a white shirt.

She was so beautiful that anyone could fall in love by simply looking at her.

“So, I assume that, if all of this is not a dream, then I am in another world…”

Recovering herself from the shock of becoming Nirvana, Sarah stood and looked at her hands while moving them, she was checking her movements.

“When I think about it, if this truly is another world, I don’t see a reason why I would want to go back to my original one.”

Sarah was a 27-year-old and she didn’t have the best life. All her close family members had already died, and she had no friends. You could say that her life was basically just eating, going to work, and coming back home at night to sleep.

“This is definitely way better than just remaining in that tedious life.”

Sarah was someone who used to play a lot of games whenever she had time. Despite her tight schedule, always having to wake up very early in the morning to go to work, she would still find time for her hobby.

Staying up until late in the night playing her games and then going to work like a zombie because of lack of sleep was a common thing for her.

Of all the games she played, there was one that she enjoyed the most, Elysian, a highly advanced MMORPG.

When compared to other games of the genre, Elysian stood out because of the great amount of freedom it offered to the players.

There were three main races of characters that a player could choose: the Humanoid races, the Demi-Human races, and the Heteromorphic races.

The Humanoids were comprised of races like the Humans and similar ones such as Elves and Dwarfs. The Demi-Humans were more monstrous and usually more ugly and grotesque, but they had superior attributes of strength when compared to the Humanoids races. They were Goblins, Orcs, Ogres, and others. Finally, there were the Heteromorphic races, which possessed great strength, being comprised of races like Demons, Vampires, and others.

Sarah had created her character as a Great Demon, a Heteromorphic race. She created a character focusing on the roleplay element of it, but also taking care to not make a weak build.

In Elysian, there was a limit of 100 levels that a player could have, with them being comprised of both racial and job levels. Racial levels were exclusive to the race of the character, while job levels were achievable to any. All jobs had a max level of 15.

Nirvana Elleanore was the name of the character created by Sarah. She was excited about what had just happened to her. She could not imagine anything better than escaping that shit life that she had and becoming Nirvana, the all-powerful Demon.

“Wait… in the game I was max level, if this is another world, I wonder how strong I am here?”

Nirvana started walking in search of an exit to the cave. After some hours she saw sunlight and walked out of the cave.

The bright light blinded her for some seconds before she regained her vision and saw two humanoid-like creatures standing close to the entrance of the cave. They were at least 3 meters tall and were monstrous creatures.

The two figures saw Nirvana and one of them raised his arm in her direction.

“You! Who are you? I don’t feel any power coming from you. You seem like a weak human!”

“Hahahaha! Human? Great, our food is guaranteed!”

The other monster laughed while hitting his comrade’s back.

Nirvana clenched her fists. She was a little nervous, she didn’t know how powerful she was in this world. She started thinking about what to do.

“Hum, I think they are orcs… guess I will just try to end this quickly.”

Very slowly, she raised her hand in the direction of one of the orcs, like she was pointing.

“[Death Mist].”

It was an instant death spell of the 8th tier that rapidly aged the target in mere seconds, causing his death.

There were ten tiers of magic, with the 1st being the weakest and the 10th the strongest. Magic would get stronger as the character progressed its levels, meaning that an 8th tier spell from a level 70 would be probably weaker than a 5th tier one from a level 100.

After casting the spell, the legs of the orc stopped moving and a loud sound was heard as he fell to the ground. He was not moving, his face had turned completely black and it seemed that he had aged centuries.

He was dead. Yes, dead, with just a single hand movement from Nirvana.

“Huh. I was thinking of what I was going to do if an 8th tier spell didn’t work on beings from this world.”

The remaining orc was terrified, his legs trembled, and he couldn’t believe what he had just seen.

“Hey, comrade, stand! What is the problem?”

He was screaming in disbelief, praying that all of that was just a dream and that the other orc was still alive.

“You! What did you do to my comrade?”

The orc, full of rage, advanced towards Nirvana. With a swing of his hand, he landed a blow with his club on the face of Nirvana using all his strength.

“Die!”

The club hit her with great power, but after the debris and the smoke that were generated by the impact dispersed, the Orc saw Nirvana standing there, completely unharmed. She hadn’t even moved from the place she was.

“What? How is that possible? Why won’t you die?”

Nirvana pushed the club away. She was laughing a little.

“What are you doing standing there? Won’t you run away?” She said in a sarcastic tone.

The Orc was trembling, completely dominated by fear, he screamed and started to run as fast as he could.

“Humph, let me end your suffering.”

Nirvana had previously used a high-tier spell of the 8th tier, but because of that, she was unable to determine the real strength of the Orcs. So, she decided that she should use a different spell against this Orc, a lower-tier one. This way she could better judge the strength of this world and also confirm her own strength.

Ponting to the Orc, she casted a spell.

“[Fire Dragon].”

As Nirvana finished uttering those words, a ray of fire in the form of a dragon was released from her finger. It went in the direction of the Orc at incredible speeds, burning the landscape as it passed by. There was no way he could evade it.

Upon reaching him, he caught fire and fell to the ground. The light in his eyes had vanished, he was dead.

For Nirvana, it was a great vision to see. The screams of fear and the despair felt by the Orc gave her a strange pleasure. She was liking it.

“So weak… he dies so easily with mere 5th tier magic…”
