'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.

My SSS-Rank Class Is Blood Monarch!

After saying those words, Isla cut off the line without hesitation. She didn't want to hear anything else that person was about to spout as it was only the same stuff she had heard again and again for years now.

Looking at her device's screen slowly darkening and then turning off, she bit her lower lip till it drew blood. The frustration she was feeling at that moment was simply unimaginable.

"You're never getting what you want… Never…" She muttered to herself as she threw the device on the bed and turned around. "Even if it meant I have to throw my life away for it… I will drag you to hell with me."

As much as this development wrecked her head, Isla didn't lose sight of what she needed to do. No matter what happens in the future, she wasn't going to compromise for anyone or anything. She must reach that goal or everything will simply collapse on her head quickly.

This was her life's purpose and her task… No place for failure.
