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...

<p>Rhode crossed his arms and gazed at the mental crystal in front of him. Eleanor, who stood beside him, also leaned against the wall, looking somewhat bored as she stretched out her hand and tapped the wall helplessly. It wasn't an illusion, but reality instead. At least for now, they hadn't encountered another attack and soon arrived at the third mental crystal that emanated Eleanor's aura. But what happened next was depressing to Rhode because… Nothing exactly happened.</p>

<p>That's right, nothing happened. Although Eleanor went up, touched and even tapped the mental crystal a few times, it didn't react in the slightest. It was as if it had malfunctioned and there was nothing either Rhode or her could do about it. And the fact that they expected another Eleanor to appear and fight them didn't happen either. In one sentence, things took a weird turn.</p>
