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...

Rhode reacted as though he didn't hear the insults and he shot a glance to the sky. Then, he clapped his hands.

"Alright, you guys must be tired after a long day. We should head back for our meals and take a break. I'll bring you to another place later on. Even though it's interesting to look at the monkey show here, you'll still feel sick of it after awhile, won't you?"

The group revealed playful smiles and followed Rhode's lead as they ignored the clamor behind them. Anne looked around curiously and also followed Rhode obediently.

That voice became louder after it was ignored.

"Hah. Why aren't you bunch of degenerate lackeys who have abandoned your prides willing to talk? Could it be that you know that you're the disgrace of all Humans?"

"I want to have something light… The food here is too greasy…"

"Me too. The food isn't too healthy here…"
