Soaring Flames

As one of the first players to gain access to World of Falan—the first immersive game worldwide—Roland creates his character as a Mage. 
However, playing as a Mage is not as fun and easy as he thought. His head even explodes after he casts the very first spell in the game. 
Stubbornly sticking to his class when most Mages decide to create a new character, Roland gradually discovers tricks of the trade and his unusual talent. This allows him to change people's stereotypes on Mages and to explore the deeply-buried secrets of this game…

Mages Are Too OP

Roland pondered the problem in the tavern while waiting for the results of the magic spiders' search.

And in a small town a thousand miles away, Douglas was very depressed.

He climbed up woodenly from the altar of the Church of Life.

How many times was it now that he had resurrected?

The black rocky statue of the Life Goddess stood tall behind him, and the bright and beautiful sun could be seen through the windows of the chapel, but he was in no mood at all to look outside.

The excitement of being new to the game three days ago was now worn away by endless frustration.

The game was a good game, a real virtual reality game—it was just too real.

Real enough to make one want to cry.

As a famous person born with a silver spoon in his mouth in Jiang City, he hadn't believed in virtual reality games.
