If this was really the second chance that heaven gave me, then I will gladly take it!

After learning everything that happened in just that spun amount of time, I immediately went inside our house and changed into a suitable suit.

"Theodore, what's with that get-up?" Mother asked as she was showing a worried expression on his pale face.

"Mom, sister, I need to go somewhere." 

"W-What? where do you want to go all of a sudden?"

"Yes, big brother, where are you going late at night?" Sister asked while grabbing the end of my shirt.

"No time to explain.. I will be coming back tomorrow." I responded as I hugged both of them at the same time and departed in a haste.

"Big brother.." Sister pondered.

"You've worked hard, Theodore." Muttered Mother as she saw me turn around while straightening up my broad shoulder.

"Sorry Mom, I am yet again giving you such a hard time.." I mumbled just as I disappeared from the approaching eyes of my Mother.

[1:00 AM, Monday], [Location: Makiling Forest, Laguna]

Based on what I learned, Makiling Forest was the place where the lvl03 Leaf Boars were located.

"Hm, what's with the crowd?" I slowly approached the crowd that was closer to the forest that was classified as danger level. 

*Chit chatter*

Just as I was about to enter the crowd, an approaching sound of police sirens could be heard.

"That was the police and behind was the military right?" Asked by a certain individual.

"Yes, seems like the government had already grasped the full situation that happened a while ago."

The sirens stopped while the soldiers of each of every district marched toward the entrance of the forest and created a human barricade as if they were prohibiting everyone from entering.

[MICROPHONE: H-Hello mic test, mic test.. Uhh-Ahem! This is the police, we will be taking over from this moment on. Please go back to your respective house and immediately report if there was another unusual occurrence just like what happened right now.]

[MICROPHONE: Once again, this is the police, we will be taking over from this moment on. Please go back to your respective house and immediately report if there was another unusual occurrence just like what happened right now.]

"W-What do you guys mean?" 

"Now that the government was involved, no one will dare to go inside the forest even if they were a being they called player."

I was about to go back after hearing that the government has already taken over the forest but my phone suddenly rang over three times indicating that there was a new notification from F******k. I sat on the sides and immediately checked my post.

[Comment: Bro, besides that Green Leaf Boar, there was Blue Leaf Boar and Blue Leaf Boar from Makiling Forest.]

{PRO TIP: Green Leaf Boar was classified as a lvl03 mob under New Life level systems. Blue Leaf Boar was a level 04 mob, whereas Green Bulldozer was a level 05 mob.}

"Seems like the entire Makiling Forest becomes the exact Windy Forest from the New Life game," I mumbled and continued to scroll down the comments.

{PRO TIP: Windy Forest was can be found outside the Beginner Town where each of different mobs could be found there that was under lvl01-20. Players who just started the New Life game would need to go there to hunt mobs to level up to get more level benefits.}

I learned another piece of informative information just as I was scrolling down the comment section and that is Mount Banahaw becomes the exact Swamp Forest from the New Life game. I wanted to go there to change my leveling area but it was after all a higher-level forest than that of the Windy Forest. 

Tututut~ Tututut~ *Phone Ringing*

My phone suddenly rang ceaselessly indicating that another news from NDRRMC was sent to my inbox. I immediately checked it and was relieved by the context of the message.

[NRDDMC: Ito ang National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC) na nagaanunsyo sa mga dating player ng New Life na maaari lamang kayong makapasok sa mga restricted area kung nakapag rehistro na kayo sa Player Association na makikita sa mga entrance ng sinasabing restricted area.]

TRANSLATED: [NRDDMC: This is the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC) announcing to former players of New Life that you can only enter restricted areas if you have been given an identification card by the Player Association which can be found at the entrances of the said restricted areas area.]

"Ohh? that fast? seems like the government has sufficient information about New Life.." I went back to the entrance of Makiling Forest, and as NDRRMC had stated, there was a section of the Player Association that was providing identity cards to those old players who wished to enter the forest.

"Next. Your name?"

"Theodore."

"Age?"

"18 this year."

"Days of New Life experience?"

"A-Ahh?" I was taken aback by the agent's question since, if I'm not mistaken, they were scouting those individuals with sufficient experience in the game.

"How many days or years have you played the New Life, please answer truthfully."

"I-I played New Life for about half a year," I responded with only half a year of experience since you might never know what would the government do to those players who have a sufficient amount of New Life experience.

"Hm, good enough."

"What does the agent mean?"

"If you answered that you just had two or three months of experience, we might never grant you an identification card since individuals who lack New Life's experience are doomed to perish," she said, her face intimidating.

"O-Ohh.."

"Remember that this card was only temporary and will be changed in the future. You can enter the Makiling Forest after the sun has risen, after all, hunting while lacking vision of the area might endanger you."

"Thank you." After receiving my identity card, I went to the lounge that the Association provided and rest for a while.

[6:00 AM, Monday], [Location: Makiling Forest, Laguna] 

"H-Hey, the entrance was opening!"

"Huh? you sure?"

I woke up exactly at 6 in the morning and learned that the baricade that was created by the association was slowly opening. 

"Time to hunt!"
