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...

Stepping out of the room and looking at the same, gloomy sky, Rhode let out a helpless sigh. Following behind him quietly was Lesa, who held her usual silver staff. Even though it seemed like nothing changed, Rhode learned from the system that the projected players had restored all their strength. After receiving the 'presence of God' (in Lesa's language) through consciousness from Rhode, Lesa exploded with great power, replenishing the players' strength immediately. Fortunately, they didn't face any attacks from strange Chaos creatures. At least for now, everything seemed normal.

I will never do this a second time.
