"Guildbane: Battle for Domination," the virtual MMORPG that has taken the world by storm, players enter a realm where guilds vie for ultimate supremacy. 

Set four years before Xin awakens from a coma, the game has undergone significant changes and evolved into a battleground for strategic guild warfare. With immersive gameplay, intense player-versus-player combat, and a focus on guild clashes, players must navigate a dynamic world where alliances are forged, rivalries are kindled, and the ultimate goal is to dominate the game's virtual landscape. 

[CONGRATULATIONS! You’re the LAST player in your generation to enter this game at the exact time of our anniversary date!]

You don’t have to rub it on me. Xin muttered. He was keenly aware that his peers left him behind.

[You received a GIFT!]

Xin was baffled. Maybe because it was his birthday, or it was an anniversary thing?

Opening the gift, his avatar glowed, but he didn’t feel like anything had changed.

He opened his stat box.

Xin’s head bobbed to the side. “Huh?”

MMORPG: I was BUGGED

COMPLETED!

[You have made a pact with the Lanternal]

[You must rescue the prisoner at all cost! In exchanged for letting you go, the Lanternal asked that you save the prisoner in the depth of this fortress. Failure to do so, the Lanternal will claim you and your group's soul.]

[The Quest, Secret Prisoner has been updated!]

Xin thought that it must be because of his CHA but it seemed that the Lanternal had let them go because of the quest he had acquired.

"Why did it let us go?" Yuzuro's voice trembled with confusion.

Midnight Duchess and Victor shared her bewilderment, seeking an explanation from Lord Schrodinger.

With a shrug, Xin admitted, "I honestly don't know. I saw that it retained some consciousness from its description, so I thought, why not try talking to it? I didn't expect it to work."

His statement was met with incredulous laughter from Victor and the others.
