Betrayed by his closest ally, Caleb Ellise was forced to settle for third place in the world’s most prestigious RTS gaming tournament, Lord of Empires. 

Disheartened but resigned, he accepts his prize, delivered via email. But just as Caleb thought his journey had ended, fate had other plans.  

BLAST!

A sudden explosion leaves him critically injured. When he regains consciousness, Caleb finds himself not in a hospital bed—but in an entirely different world.  

[DING! Welcome to Izoya Continent, Earth #212]  
[Welcome to the Grand Tournament: Season King Lord of Empires]  
[Host has been designated as Lord of Kingdom #9845007]  

Caleb quickly realizes the impossible: he has been transported into the very game he spent years mastering. Now, the stakes are higher than ever.  

[Main Mission: Build your kingdom, dominate the economy, forge alliances, and conquer the world]  
[Congratulations, Host! You’ve unlocked the Lord Talent: Vision Fog (Rank: S)]

Fueled by his expertise, a newfound determination ignites within Caleb. No longer just a player, he is now a lord destined to rise. 

As he navigates treacherous alliances and strategic battles, Caleb vows to reclaim his crown—not as a gamer, but as the true King of Kings.  

The game isn’t over. It has only just begun.

[Caleb] [So, my guess is right. You see him, right?]

[Liliana_P] [Why did you kill him? Weren't there other options you could have taken?]

[Caleb] [I didn't find any other options to defeat him without making him die. Do you know about it?]

[Liliana_P] [I don't know. I'm sorry]

[Caleb] [I'll help you survive in this place. I'll help you with your town hall protection until you reach level 4. But there's one thing you shouldn't do]

[Caleb] [Don't forbid me from killing anyone. If that's the only way to survive in this game, then you can't deny it]

Liliana was in shock. She knew that if she told Caleb about this, Caleb would be angry with her. Even though it was just a text message, as a woman, she could tell and realized that the message Caleb sent her was angry.

[Caleb] [Do you understand? Reply to my message if you do!]
