'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!

Laying there, right against the tree trunk was the dead corpse of a human being. The body looked so disfigured that it took Arthur a few seconds to actually figure out what corpse was that.

The limbs were detached and laid everywhere around the body. Large chunks of the abdomen and the entire head were nowhere to be seen. All the organs spilled out and laid around the body like a twisted decoration.

The smell was so foul even though the weather was very cold, indicating how truly mauled this body was.

Arthur sucked in a deep breath as he tried to keep his calm while inspecting the body from afar. His face darkened due to the morbid sight but he didn't let himself panic.

'That's not… a normal death.' He mused. 'Something had probably mauled this guy beyond recognition. Is it the Yetis I've heard about?'
