"There are no heroes. In life, the monsters win."
...
In 2106, [Mayhem Online], a fully immersive VRMMO game, was released. Soon, it dominated the world's economy when people could exchange the in-game currency with real-life currency and vice versa.

In the year 2107, Flynn Grey, a 22-year-old college dropout with an ambiguous history, joined in the fray of billions of people that had already started playing [Mayhem]. Hoping to uncover the game's secret and earn a fortune, he spent months on adventures without fruitful results.

For better or worse, Shura, Flynn's in-game character, ends up in a great Wyvern's den, acquiring a hidden class and a monstrous race. Join him as he defeats his past and paves his way into becoming a true legend in both worlds.

//DreamNote//

This story features an unstable protagonist due to his mysterious past. He's not evil, not righteous either, and would do anything he feels like doing. 

Character development is a big part of the novel, so if the Protagonist seems annoying and idiotic at the start, bear with it as it gets better. His character and everything else is explained. 

This story will feature his real and game life, although, for most parts, the focus would be on the game world.

He doesn't start as a monster protagonist from the get-go. It'll be shown in the story how and why he turns into a monster in the game [Chapter no. 20-35]. 

The story's pacing would depend on the arcs, but I'll try to keep it at the fast-mediums.

This story WILL have a harem, but the focus would be on the character-building more than the romance. Romance is going to form later and will be slow-paced.

MONSTER MMORPG: Mayhem Online

"So, first and foremost. How much money does Egran's treasury have? I am sure you are aware since you managed the state of affairs, right?"

I asked as my smile stretched to my ears. I was currently seated inside Egran's study; the same room that he loves so much.

Cohtan, the deputy of Egran, was standing nervously in front of me.

"It has 90,000,000 chasm empire's gold coins. Apart from that, there are some rare weapons, items, potions and 489 mana stones."

To think that even such a small town had so much money.

A mana stone was a much rarer currency than gold. It had many practical uses, but the biggest use was its use as a universally accepted currency throughout the world Mayhem. Like the name suggested, mana stones held mana inside them and even a single mana stone was worth 100,000 gold coins.
