'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.

'B-Blind?' Arthur almost thought he was hallucinating or he was seeing something wrong. But it was clear as day, the way their eyes were completely white, including the irises, and the way they were unfocused, almost as if they were dead… There was no doubt in his mind that those were blind eyes that couldn't see anything.

Even when they were clearly staring at the shard, they weren't truly seeing it and were merely feeling it. Silence took over the entire place for a good few seconds. The boy kept staring at the men with a wary look.

'Did they feel the shard? Or did their code break?' He mused. 'I can't escape since they're surrounding me. But, they seem to be very curious about it.'

All the hostile aura the men had vanished as if it was never there to begin with. Then, under Arthur's fascinated gaze, the men looked up at one another.
