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...

It seemed like the Chaos Core wasn't foolish. Although the Chaos creatures relied upon their instincts to act, the Chaos Core had apparently sensed the main culprit. The fact that the gap out there was gradually shrinking was the best proof of that. The Chaos Core was clearly planning to trap Rhode and the rest here forever!

To think it only thought about this now!

Rhode inwardly criticized how dumb the Chaos Core was. From the start, the Chaos Core only dealt with Rhode and didn't care about the opening. If it blocked the opening from the beginning, even Rhode would have to tuck his tail obediently and wouldn't be able to return to where he came from. But he wasn't facing a good situation now either. At that moment, he was still some distance away from the opening. If he couldn't leave before the Chaos Core closed the opening completely, he would never be able to leave this godforsaken place in his entire life.
