Being a bottom feeder in society is an unpleasant experience.

That's how Kiro felt after being left for dead in a back alley. Abandoned and disappointed by the 'work hard' ethic his parents left for him.

'At least the heavens are weeping for me.'	As the light from his eyes faded, he declared as the last act of defiance.

He awoke in a room he hadn't seen in ten years. Whether it was due to sheer luck or divine intervention, he was grateful.

'Through the VR game, Asgard, I'll become filthy rich in this life time.'


Kiro was blissfully unaware that his return was a cry for something greater, for the underlying threats that hovered over his world.

They spent the little time they had left on food stalls. It was overall a successful day, they had great fun at the park.

It was getting late and colder, but Kiro was still feeling the warmth of accidently forcing Isla to hug him. He didn't regret it one bit. The choices were between pushing her forwards or pulling her to him after all.

He may not have been well versed in relationship. But he knew pushing her to fall on the other side wouldn't have been smooth at all. To make it even better, she gave him her ID without a second thought and asked him for his.

"Ah, I have to take a leak, I'll be back."

They all decided to, they'd been eating and drinking juice all day after all. As they approached the toilets, they heard voices inside, having a heated argument.

That caused them to freeze by the entrance.
