You feel the familiar feeling as your mind's impulses are intercepted by the helmet and you're pulled away from your body. You feel a sudden rush and a gentle deacceleration as you find yourself floating in a astral sea. The game's main theme plays gently all around you and you feel like your under water.

You have to stop for a moment to reread the last option. The Hero? That was a full class now? When you were playing The Hero class was introduced as a joke option for a crossover event to celebrate the anniversary of a popular tokusatsu in Japan. It was capped at half the max level of the time and could only equip accessories. Players couldn't really make heads or tails of what the requirements for specific forms or transformations were. Without a transformation, players were basically half as effective as a regular class and even taking it to arenas was a meme. After the event, it was simply removed. It was rumored to be the head developer's favorite "class" to play as though. Maybe that's why it returned.
"Excuse me." You call out to the void. "But is there a rerun of the Hero event going on?" You ask pointing to the class.
"No. The Hero class is now a fully developed option for players to choose." The voice replies patiently.
