Keen Calisto, an introvert college guy, is transported to a mysterious RPG-like world called Esprit on August 26, 2051 after receiving a call from an anonymous number in the middle of the night. Many other people from around the world found themselves in the same situation and everyone was given an Ability Class as a tool for survival. Keen acquired the mythical rogue class: vampire. Already having lost some memory fragments as a login requirement, more recollection of the real world start to fade as people spend more time inside Esprit. All memories are estimated to deplete within six months if nothing is done. The only way to return to their daily lives is by defeating monsters that housed random memory fragments called Release to hopefully bring their ‘self’ back. Rescuing a seemingly helpless woman named Vi Michels from a mob of Insane, people who have been defeated by the Esprit system, the two embark on their journey and become closer to each other more than anyone in their entire lives.

Vi stares at the newcomer named Aki. "You refused the offer of all those guilds?"


Somehow, the realistic detail of her elk mask seems bothersome.


The geomancer nods. "They're annoying. Everyone's so eager to take advantage of my <Experience Boost> skill."


Keen nods silently with arms crossed over his chest.


The diner's waiter approaches them with a practiced smile and hands three brochures of their menu. "Sir. Ladies. May I take your order?"


All three of them put obvious eyes on the guy's gray neck cuff.


The waiter maintains his smile. "I get that reaction a lot from fellow Transfers."


Vi, although showing apparent concern for him upon remembering Elise's circumstance, manages to browse the menu and order herself a meal.
