In the year 2173, the world's first Full-World Virtual MMORPG game 'Astral Online' changed the face of the blue planet Asteria. With its revolutionary Digital Capture System, players could scan themselves into the game with up to 20% beautification, and millions flocked to play it.

The game's popularity skyrocketed with the introduction of the Real Money Trading (RMT) system, and professional players formed guilds and factions to increase their profits. 

But this prosperity was short-lived, as players began to fuse with their avatars, gaining powerful abilities in the real world that tipped the balance of power and caused chaos.

Two years later, demons and monsters from inside the game invaded the real world, decimating over 90% of humanity.

The remaining survivors were left hiding in fear, unable to fight back against the invaders.

Zell was an average player who spent most of his life working overtime to make ends meet; although he inherited a wonderful house thanks to his parents, most of his wages went to the property tax and food bill. 

He found solace in collecting beasts in the game and evolving them into humanoids, primarily females. 

When the end came, he was powerless and alone, with only his pets and Rika, his cherished Flame Rabbit, as his companions.

In a final act of bravery, Zell saves the life of a strange girl with white wings, sacrificing himself. 

But instead of dying, he awoke in an empty white room with a single computer and a game-like screen that allowed him to edit his IRL avatar and persona.

Zell's second chance at life came with a mission: survive. But who gave him this second chance, and for what reason? Could he meet Rika again, or was she lost forever? 

As Zell navigates this dark new world, he must confront the harsh realities of survival, facing danger at every turn and making difficult choices to determine his fate.

Zell spent quite some time speaking with this woman, learning more about the world of Asteria from her point of view.

"So most races here would rather submit to the demons than  keep fighting?" He asked with a loud shout.

He asked himself before slamming the table as it cracked, blood seeping from his broken hand, the shards of marble piercing his flesh like thick splinters.

"Zell!? Why are you so stupid!"

Colette quickly leaned over; her hands were soft and delicate as her silky fingers began to shimmer with blue light, the sensation was cold, but Zell found it delightful as it spread from his fingers to his hands, through his body.

"I'm sorry... So many people will die... have died already..."

Her body pressed against him, and both arms wrapped around his back; she was not as young as he was, and her impulsive nature was limited only to the desire to have children and one day see her mother again.
