A mysterious VR game company has unleashed a revolutionary MMORPG, Ascension of Souls, a game so advanced it threatens to blur the line between reality and fiction. Marketed as a groundbreaking innovation, it promised to change the world—but for Leo, it’s far more than just a game.

It’s his only hope for survival.

Thrown into an expansive, ever-shifting world, Leo fights alongside a growing circle of powerful allies—each with their own ambitions, rivalries, and hidden pasts. Like them, he can level up, grow stronger, and carve his path through a world where strength is everything. But unlike anyone else, he possesses a pair of mysterious bracelets, a power seemingly tied to him alone, unlocking fragmented memories of a past he doesn’t remember.

As whispers of forgotten legends surface and unseen forces pull the strings behind the game’s mechanics, Leo realizes that survival isn’t just about leveling up—it’s about unraveling a truth buried deep within the game itself.

But uncovering the truth comes at a cost—one that could rewrite everything he knows

Lily quickly glanced at the chaos unfolding around her, a rare serious expression on her face as she did her mental calculations. 


Without questioning her, Leo fired at an empty space. He honestly thought it was going to miss until Nyx dodged into the path of the bullet, striking her temple, causing her head to snap to the side, narrowly dodging a flaming claw that grazed her shoulder instead of crushing her skull. 


Nyx glanced back with a grateful look in her eyes only to see Lily with her hand covering Leo's mouth. It was as if they were incredibly close or something. She knew by the glint in Lily's eyes that she had definitely played a key part in her survival, somewhere deep down she couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.
