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...

After parting ways with Sonia, Rhode didn't return to his territory immediately. Instead, he went to look for Lydia and explained the situation he and Alice predicted. The confident and chic Lydia didn't seem affected as she displayed a gentle smile, bowing respectfully to him.

"I'm really thankful for the information you provided me, Your Majesty Rhode. It seems like seeking your assistance is the right choice. I can't be more grateful to receive such a detailed answer from you."

"Don't you have any opinions, Your Royal Highness Lydia?"
