Falling Cosmos

Tormented by loan sharks, Lorn had lived the life of an 'ascetic'. He would willingly become homeless and live the life of a beggar (and only sometimes a pickpocket), so his hard-earned money wouldn't fall into his debtors' hands. Hopefully, they would finally leave him alone after realizing he's worth nothing anymore. But realizing his plans, the debtors decide to sell him as a guinea pig! The One Country's grand experiment attempting to copy a human's consciousness and put it inside the digital space! The only catch is, 80% of the test subjects are expected to receive lasting damages to their brain. However, Lorn finds a once-in-a-lifetime chance. The researchers were creating a virtual world using the digital space. And to create profits from it, instead of simply creating boring-old Virtual Earth (and calling it the Metaverse), they were making a game out of it! The first fully immersive VRMMORPG in the world! As the first tester of this game, Lorn would be a disgrace if he couldn't make money off of it!

Beckoning a Skill even desperately

Lorn's party now consisted of six members. At first, it was a bit awkward, since he could only recruit four people, but as his Halo of the Leader leveled up, the number of party members increased. Now, everyone in his team was a proper member of his party, the one recognized by the System.

Which meant that almost everyday, Lorn and his partymates received 2 or 3 SM points for their efforts. It was basically a factory of Skill Mastery. Everyone involved was content.

But they didn't really see Lorn as their leader. It was more like Lorn was that one kid who had a soccer ball to play with. They all enjoyed playing and Lorn didn't mind sharing his soccer ball, but just because he had it, didn't mean he was their boss.

Lorn believed that if he truly made them look up to him as their leader, he would be receiving a very useful Behavioral Skill.

He quickly thought about the feasibility of it all.
