Deus: We are all Lords
Chapter 1 I

Location: ???

Date: ???

In an incredibly thick forest, filled with all sorts of trees and creatures, none are recognizable by humans. This forest stretched on for several thousands of kilometers with no end in sight. In this forest existed an insignificant and incredibly run-down building, or, in better words, a damaged castle. The castle had vines and shrubs of all kinds growing around it to show that the forest had reclaimed its land.

No one knows how long the castle has existed in this forest, nor does anyone know who built it, but today was different. Inside the lonely castle, a man could be seen sitting on the only object in the entire castle that did not look old: the throne. The man, standing at what seems to be a height of about 5.6 feet, was of a darker complexion and had dark hair; his looks could be described as completely average.

The man sat on the throne with his eyes closed and no one else in sight around him. For hours, he remained in this unconscious state with no signs of waking or change in posture. At some point, he seemed no different from a stone statue.

...

Waking all players

....

A mysterious and cold-sounding voice suddenly spoke, and soon the man's fingers twitched as he slowly started showing signs of waking up.

"Ahh!" he cried sharply as he lifted his hands to protect his eyes from the harsh sun.

After waiting a few seconds for his eyes to adjust to the light, the man finally brought down his hand to find the source of the light. He knew that his bed didn't have any window or light source around it that brought in this much bright light. Finally opening his eyes fully to look around him, the man found himself looking at a completely different environment than what he remembered.

"Where is this?" the man questioned, now fully awake.

Looking around, all he saw were damaged, moss-covered walls and a large amount of small shrubs that grew all over the floor. He didn't remember the house having any such environment; yes, it was beautiful, but he had never been anywhere with such peaceful scenery.

"Hmm?" The man questioned his sanity due to the strange voice he was hearing; he was 100% sure that there was no one here, and even if there was, the person's voice would never be as clear as this was since he couldn't see anyone around him.

Above all, the voice didn't seem to be coming from a normal human; it sounded so cold that it seemed mechanical, and he was at least 80% sure that no human could replicate a voice this cold. Choosing to ignore the weird voice and its means of communication, the man focused on its message. He may not have known much about what was happening, but didn't the voice just infer that he was transmigrated into some strange world?

"And also, what the fuck does it mean by 50,000x bigger than Earth? Just how big is this planet then?" the man shouted
