'Divinity Online'. The new breakthrough in the Full-Immersion Virtual Reality technology. After decades of work, Divinity Corp had achieved the impossible. Creating a massive video game world that people can enter and live in as if it were Earth. Their goal was clear, to create a world other than Earth that we can call home.


A place where the laws of reality vanish, and the true ceiling of power shifts completely.


Naturally, the shockwave Divinity Online created across the entire globe was unlike anything else. Every single person has heard of it, even those who have had no interest in video games before.


Giant corporations and even governments immediately rushed to start planning to invest in this new world and just like that, billions of people had their eyes on one single date: the 19th of July.

***

Arthur, like everyone else, had heard of the game and was as excited as everyone else to try it, if not even more. With how much he grew bored of his life on earth, this fantasy world was like the divine call he had been searching for. However, there was a very small problem.


He had no money to buy the machine required to access Divinity Online. His wretched life had turned him into a broke teenager with no parents, and no relatives. But, by some kind of luck, he got his hands on one of those machines.

Not knowing what was awaiting him in that world, Arthur was simply seeking one thing... A new opportunity in life and to find a purpose he could work for when he had none so far.


[Welcome to 'Divinity Online'.]

My SSS-Rank Class Is Blood Monarch!

The moment The Founder said that, a giant screen started going down from the ceiling right behind him.

"As Theodore had told you. We have gathered data about every single student here. Your performance in school, your lifestyle, achievements, and how you spent your first days in Divinity Online. Then, we converted that data into points. The higher your points, the better class you're going to be assigned to."

"They better put me in the best class or I'm rioting!"

The atmosphere grew tense after The Founder finished speaking. Everyone was worried that they were going to be put into the lowest classes. All the students there were rich and influential individuals from rich families and they simply could not accept being put in a lower position than their peers. After all, not everyone can afford to play DO. But, that was not the only criterion.
