Chapter 150: 150 - World Change
[ESW gave me Super Powers!]
[Yes, you read that title right, ESW gave me Super Powers!
Hello, Sousa Maria Smith, a simple accountant in an accounting company like several others in Manhattan, the only interesting thing I had in my life was that I was the highest level Player among my friends in Elder Scrolls: Warcraft.
So much so that while my friends were still at level 8, I had just reached level 10!
What surprised me was that upon reaching level 10, the game unlocked a function for me to learn a skill in real life!

This is what the screen layout looks like where I can choose my Skill.
As a Warlock who leveled up 10 levels in 20 days like nothing other than my Imp friend who I named Kitty, the first Skill that crossed my mind to select was the [Imp Summon] Skill.
So that's what I did, after I selected the Skill, a tab appeared with a loading screen saying that I was in the queue and that it would take 14 years for me to learn the Skill.

As it was late, I decided to disconnect from the game and go to sleep, the next day I had to go to work and I didn't connect to the game, but when I got home and opened ESW, there it was, the Skill was just a Click away. I want to learn this in real life.
To be honest, I actually had a little doubt if I would actually learn something like that in real life, but thinking about how Notch was using magic in real life in that fight with Iron Man, there was a small spark of hope in me saying that this it would probably be real.
Trying to control my anticipation, I clicked to learn the skill and my head was a little fuzzy for a few seconds until I felt a memory as if I had studied this skill for several years and actually managed to use it.
Without controlling myself, I left the game and decided to try.
Just like in ESW, I could feel my Mana in real life, which made my hope increase even more.
Now, guess if I made it?

Photoshop experts, you can analyze this selfie I just took with Kitty in real life and confirm whether or not this is computer graphics.
Hahaha, yes friends, I became a Warlock in real life! Just like in the game, Kitty has the intelligence of a 3-year-old child, but her proficiency in battle is very high, and she is very strong despite her small size.
If you want to see more about my life with Kitty, follow me on OasIsgram, there I will post photos daily and answer everyone's questions about whatever you want to know!
My OasIsgram is @MariaAndKitty!]

Initially, everyone who knew that ESW Skills could be learned in real life were angry to see someone divulging the secret to the rest of the Players, but when they saw the end of the post they understood why this Player did this.
Looking curiously at her profile on OasIsgram, the Players saw that she already had more than 3 million followers.
Considering how much brands were paying celebrities to promote them on the internet, this woman could practically retire from her formal job and just live off advertising on his profile.
It really was a smart move.
Such a smart move that other Players who learned Skills in real life also started doing this, posting on the ESW Forum and attracting people to their OasIsgram, of course, only the Players who weren't anyone's subordinates.
Players around the world were shocked.
"Bro, did you see that you can learn ESW Skills in real life?!" A boy asked his friend at school. n//o()V-.E//l-/b-.1()n
"Yes Bro! I want to learn stealth as quickly as possible..." He said as he lowered his voice. "Imagine going into the girls' bathroom with stealth on."
Hearing his friend's idea, the boy was surprised and envious that his friend could learn this skill.
Conversations like this were happening a lot around the world.
In just a few days it was already possible to see people walking down the street with imps following them by their side, people with slightly transparent bodies, people who could conjure rain clouds that cured the sick and even people transforming into bears to fight.
Of course, because of the queue that was getting longer and longer, the amount of people with Skills was still very small, to the point that a person with an ESW Skill would instantly become famous in a city.
When people started to see others learning Skills that were so useful in the game, the number of Players subscribing to ESW increased exponentially.
From the initial 1.3 Billion Players, in just a few days it had already increased to 2.5 Billion, and the number continued to rise.
Even among the wealthy, as it was extremely expensive to jump the skill queue, using an ESW Skill in real life was seen as a form of status.
You couldn't say you were rich if you didn't have the ability to spend a few million to jump the queue and learn the Skill you wanted.
For people who bought luxury cars worth millions, paying a few million to learn a Skill that could save their lives was not a waste of money at all.
If you didn't have money? Just sell some cars and buy a Skill, it's better to have fewer cars to be able to protect your own life with a Skill than to have a full garage and be able to die at any moment.
Of course, there were also complaints from people who didn't pass the character analysis and couldn't learn Skills, which started to worry people that maybe they would never be able to learn a Skill in real life.
But when Oasis' explanation came out saying why these people didn't have the right to learn the Skill in real life, the public became very excited and Oasis' public image became even better.
Even public agencies were encouraging police officers to play ESW, paying their monthly fees, so that they could learn the Skills and further help with public safety, even more so after knowing that the criminals probably couldn't learn the Skills.
In just a few days after Maria Smith's post, the world began to change, and once a place that was extremely racist towards people who had powers, it was now slowly changing the mindset to idolize people with powers.
And the ones who were feeling it the most were people like Alex's girlfriend, the X-Men.
