Rhode is a legendary guild leader of the most influential guild in the VRMMO, Dragon Soul Continent. In order to cope with the death of his beloved sister, he dived into the game for seven long years. During this period, Rhode tries his best to alleviate his emotional pain through gaming, but alas, his life shatters once more when he heard his parents perish in a plane crash.

A month after the incident, he made a decision to quit the game and return to the real world. But just before that, as a final farewell, Rhode decides to fight the most powerful BOSS in the game with his guildmates. In the end, he defeats the BOSS at the expense of his avatar's life. Rhode smiles as his avatar dissipates in a beam of light. However, instead of respawning at the usual platform...

...

"W-wha...!"

Rhode shot up and stared at the unfamiliar ceiling.

And thus, a player who had been creating legends in the game for three eras disappeared just like that...

The surging magical powers coalesced and resounded in the entire space. Rafah raised both arms as an incomparably strong source of energy flowed within his body. The ground and walls cracked under the pressure. Lapis gritted her teeth, closed her eyes, and turned away to avoid the strong gale.

"Ignorant humans, all of you will die here!"

The central control room could no longer be saved, but that didn't matter as long as Lapis was around and he had the powers…

Rafah stopped moving and time seemed to have frozen at this second. He opened his eyes wide and glared at Rhode, who had mysteriously appeared before him. The black-haired young man maintained a stance as he slashed his sword down.

Rafah lowered his head. His body, which was made of light, had suffered a terrifying slash on its right shoulder.
