'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.

"... Wow… I'm… I'm a little speechless…"

It took Elise a few seconds to get her composure back. That was when she realized that her eyes were tearing up. So, she quickly wiped them so as not to embarrass herself. For some reason, Arthur's story truly touched her heart and she couldn't stop the tears from falling.

After all, how can she not feel something after hearing everything he went through? For someone to lose their only support in life at such a young age and then have to learn to survive on his own in a cruel world that won't spare him. She could never imagine how hard it must've been on him.

Yet, even then, Arthur didn't talk about that time as if it was a curse. If anything, it seemed as if he was equally grateful he experienced that harsh life and she didn't know why that was what she felt from his words.

'How can he be grateful for that? He must've been through hell. What blessing did he find in that?' She asked herself with a confused look.
