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...

If it were an ordinary mortal in his place, perhaps the mortal would have vomited blood and died due to the intense shock waves. In fact, the Sky Whale didn't actually speak. Instead, it fused its thoughts with the wind element to form a sound which seemed like a sneeze to mortals.

"I am… the child of the wind element… Grid… I'm glad to… personally witness… the heir of the Phenomenon Void…" The Sky Whale's voice resounded.

"Greetings, Grid, child of the wind element. I'm the heir of the Void Dragon, Rhode Alander. I've come here in accordance to the ancient spiritual contract, seeking your assistance. I hope you can assist me in protecting this territory from outsiders and battle alongside me."
