It was the year 2169. The apocalypse finally arrived. Global warming, zombies, nuclear war, all at once. Just one tipping point and the world itself would crumble. Then, Nova Corp, a hegemon of the corporate world, seemingly convinced the global super powers into doing the impossible: Taking everyone online. And they did. Everyone, poor or rich, was taken into the VRMMORPG: World Online. A fantasy world where anything was possible. A utopia, unlike everything that the real world was. But what was supposed to become a method of existence, became a battleground for supremacy. Companies, world powers, and the rich battled to become the greatest. The disparity between the poor and the rich grew. There was no justice in this world. It took Darwin's words further than any other. Jake, as poor as one could get, was caught in the rift, torn apart by the unfair system. He was a dog of the Shadow King Guild, and even though he was absolutely loyal, in the end, the guild cut him off. He was without an anchor and left in the cruel world. He knew no Utopia like the others. But one day, when he opened his eyes, nothing was the same anymore. Opening his eyes, he found himself ten years in the past. He was done being the henchman now. He was not going to let himself be used anymore. Now, it was time for him to fight back. So what if the strongest were going to stand in his way? He was going to be unstoppable.

"Who are you?" Jake's voice echoed through the room.
"Ah! Shadow King. The guild master of the prodigal guild. Please, take a seat." the calm, experienced voice from inside the room said.
Jake nodded and took a seat opposite to the head of the table.
"I thought that I would be meeting with the Mr. Grant. The CEO of Horace. But it seems like you are not him. Who are you?" Jake asked as he took a seat fearlessly.
He knew that nothing was going to happen to him. They were still in a safe zone where killing was forbidden. Jake would not face a penalty if he was attacked, and he wouldn't drop anything, while the person who did kill him would go to jail for a long time.
