January 13, 2090. Bacolod City, known as the City of Smiles, was a bustling metropolis located in the Philippines.
In SM Megamall, Luna was finishing up his grocery shopping, "Hey Boni, be at my house in 30 minutes, alright?"
"Sure bro, make sure you buy enough supplies, alright? We're not leaving your house for a month!" replied a voice from the other line.
It was currently 9:03 PM, both of them had reserved the next month to no-life "Fused Worlds Online," one of the most anticipated MMORPGs which was set to have Global servers and promised no launch day hiccups when it launched at 3:00 AM (GMT+8).
---------------
2:59 AM
Luna and Boni were preparing themselves and had their login credentials readied, there were 30 seconds left before the game officially launched when they both heard a booming voice in their heads as time seemed to have stopped.
"My children, of the myriad worlds in existence, you all have evolved the least, existing comfortably as the apex predators of Earth. All of that ends today, you must fight, struggle, and evolve! Only then will the myriad races survive what is to come." and then the voice disappeared as suddenly as it had come.
Information suddenly flooded Luna's mind.

"Are we in.. an MMORPG?" he said, as he looked around, only to notice that he and Boni were still in his room.
"Sooo, the MMORPG came to us?" Asked Boni, in a bewildered tone.
"I've read stories about this before, but it was always people getting transported into another world, but whatever the case, allocate your stat points first." Luna urged Boni, he had a terrible feeling about what was to come. They may not have fantasized about this certain scenario, but he had thought of "what ifs" when he was daydreaming while reading fantasy light novels.
"Alright bro, I put 10 in Strength, 10 in Dexterity, and 10 in Vitality for now," Boni replied, he was used to playing the stalwart defender in MMORPGs, so he opted to put the last 10 in Vitality for now.
"Sounds good, I'll do the same but put the last 10 in Agility, for now, that way we know how much of a difference 10 stat points make in terms of speed." as they both rummaged through their "inventory" they found an intro manual and a wooden club.

*DING* Summoning Commencing.
After hearing that announcement in their heads, two zombies spawned right beside them, Boni, caught by surprise could only hold up his weapon and stop it from getting closer.
Luna on the other hand, whether due to him being gifted in mechanics, or him raising his Agility stat, reacted fast and swung his wooden club and hit the zombie right on the temple, knocking it down, as he continued to smash his club on its head four more times. When the zombie died, it seemed to have turned into black dust, and faded, then a lingering wisp entered Luna's body, raising his EXP, as well as something that looked like a coin with the word "VIS" on top, and the number "1" in the middle got absorbed as well, which increased his <Currency> counter by 1.
*FIRST BLOOD*
Another message popped up in Luna's mind, "Congratulations, you are the first person to eliminate an opponent in this new world, as such you will receive a reward given only to you who has adapted the fastest."
Right after receiving that message, Luna got a notification that something appeared in his inventory, it was a purple chest.
