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...

Sonia pushed the door open and saw the petite figure in her pajamas sitting by the bedroom window. Lilian, who was somewhat bored, revealed a gentle smile and beckoned to Sonia.

"Isn't Madam Serene around today?"

Sonia closed the door behind her and went up to Lilian. She gazed around and didn't find Archangel Serene anywhere in the room. In fact, Sonia knew the answer even without looking because Lilian definitely wouldn't have worn her pajamas to meet her. If others visited Lilian, the little girl would surely be on her guard.

"Yes, Serene isn't around today. She has something to attend to."

Sonia murmured under her breath. But she was filled with suspicion deep down.
