Chapter 1
This could be a tale of epic quests and legendary heroes. But it's not. This could be a tale of forbidden love and horrible tragedy. But it's not. Instead, it involves an ordinary college student living his ordinary life. However, it was a certain event that made his life extraordinary.
Ryou Shin, 19, was a Korean transfer student studying in Japan. His school was ranked 3rd in the world, attracting students of all ethnicities to receive an education there. Ryou's family were not overly wealthy, but certainly well-to-do, which he was always thankful for. Not only were they able to pay for his education, Ryou was also able to get a condo along with a monthly allowance, making his life pretty comfortable. His closest friends were two upper classmates, Tyr of Norway, and Geoff of Britain. They shared many memories together since high school, and they were close as brothers. Another remarkable thing about Ryou was that he was an avid fan of the world #1 played game, League of Legends. He kept top marks in his grades while managing to achieve Platinum III, a ranking he was quite happy to stay in. Now it was Friday, a week before winter break, and after a long day at school, Ryou was ready to have a quiet and relaxing weekend.
"Man, what a looooong day," Ryou said to himself as he closed his front door. He threw down his backpack and collapsed on his office chair. Ryou logged onto League, expecting another great game with his favorite champion, Ahri. The nine-tailed fox was basically the reason how Ryou got to Plat. Out of the champion pool of 117 and still growing, none worked with him as well as Ahri. As Ryou was about to click Play, he noticed a notification at the upper left of the screen, that said: "Due to an unknown bug, Ahri has been disabled for the time being." Ryou sighed. "Well damn. I guess I'll get something to eat, maybe I'll play AP Rengar or something later." After a couple hours of curb stomping noobs, Ryou turned off his computer and went to bed.
