An apocalypse is coming to Odeatha, a world filled with magic and fantastical creatures. Many monsters appeared out of nowhere and terrorized the people. So, the higher-ups of the many countries decided to use a special magic that lifted some of their lands and buildings to the sky. 

But the wizards didn't realize the big flaw of that magic. The buildings and lands they had lifted were destroyed, and many people died.

That was the backstory of Grand Azure Online. This new VR game boasts a combination of fantasy RPG, colony building, management, and survival elements.

Adventure in the blue sky? Build a floating base? Defend it from the myriad of threats? Taming fantastic beasts as your allies? Forming a colony that would have a massive impact on Odeatha? People want to try out those unique features.

One of them is Alan Rhodes, a young man that very excited to be a beta tester of the game. Unfortunately, his life is in a downward spiral because he lost his job. He decides to sell his VR device to make ends meet.

Before that, he decided to get a small taste of that game by becoming a mage. He went on a little adventure in the sky and met new friends. Sadly, he had to leave the game forever in the end.

But something strange happened. Alan and the other players couldn't log out. 

Is that fantasy realm going to be Alan's new life?
Can he survive? Can he uncover why he and the others are trapped there?

Would his life be any better in that world?

Grand Azure Online

Alan tied the red-haired elf's hands in the middle of the land. However, he didn't look scared but glared at Alan and the others instead.


"You already said you're giving up, you know." Haruna folded her arms in front of that person. "Why is your expression like that?"


The elf laughed. "Well, well, I'm afraid of you."


"I have a question, sir." Alan stood up after making sure the ties were tight enough. "What other crimes have you committed?"


"Well…." The elf shrugged. "We only look for rare animals and sell them."


"Lie." Alan threw a sword at the man. "Answer me properly, or you will suffer the same fate as your friend, Cage."


Celia, who was checking out Brunch on the other side of the land, flinched.


The elf could only widen his eyes at the bloodstained sword.


Haruna squatted in front of that pointy-eared being. "Cage said that you guys do more than that, right?"
