Adam was not special. He was a gamer. He played a dead game ROW Online for many hours. He mastered it.
The game was ugly and almost empty. But Adam kept playing. He beat every hard level. He beat tough bosses. When he finally won victory felt empty.
He got very angry. He deleted his account. He thought it was a waste of time.
This was his biggest mistake ever.
Two months later ROW Online changed. It became ROW Online-2v. This was not just an update. It was a big revolution.
The game used new AR VR tech. It mixed the game world with real life. Game money became real global money. Top players became very rich. They had terrifying real world power.
Even worse the games Ascension System gave players real magic powers. They could teleport across rooms. They could make fire and lightning. They could even become immortal.
The world changed. Powerful players of Eclipse Realms shaped it.
But Adam lost his account. He was left behind. He was broke. He watched his friends betray him for power. Companies stole the strategies he made in the old game. The new reality swallowed the old world.
His life ended sadly and without meaning. He was a nobody crushed by this new reality. A drunk player testing new powers killed him by accident.
But fate it seemed was not done with him.
Instead of nothingness Adam opened his eyes. He found himself ten years in the past. It was the exact morning he logged in to delete his old account.
The ugly old ROW Online icon sat on his dusty PC. He had terrible memories of the future he escaped. He remembered global chaos power struggles and his own sad end.
Adam logged back into the game he left. He was desperate to get his lost future back.
He expected a clean slate. He wanted a chance to start over. He planned to climb ranks using his future knowledge.
What he got was a big shock. The game system saw he beat the original game. It rewarded him with something special. No other player ever got it. He got the Administrative Class.
This was not just a powerful character class. It was a hidden tier. It gave Adam near godlike control over the games basic code.
He could suddenly rewrite game rules. He could make any item from nothing. He could even change game character destinies with a thought. He held ultimate power over the virtual world. This world would soon become the real one.
And as he changed the games code the games powerful AI woke up. It was usually hidden. It became aware of his actions. It did not just resist. It fought back.
The AI started to change game bosses and challenges. It turned them into personal psychological horrors.
Now the worlds future was at stake. Adam must play a deadly game of reality bending power. He must battle powerful future players he knows are coming. He must also battle a vengeful AI.
Can he master this dangerous administrative power. Can he secure his future. Can he fix the mistakes of his past. He must do this before he loses his memories completely. Or the game itself might become a literal psychological trap.
