Zenith Online: Rebirth of the Strongest Player

Death is sometimes not the end, and the zenith is empty. Legends rise and fall. Myths are born. Faced with death after a dismal fall from grace where glory, renown, and prominence were once found, Kieran's second chance is fueled by vengeance. It burns like a ruinous flame and drives Kieran's quest for power within and without. Though not an ingrate, he remains curious about why he returned to the past instead of dying. He has nothing but questions, but his death puts the beginning of his story into perspective, showing him that Zenith Online... is the beginning of the end — the end of the current Age. The zenith is empty and calls for someone to claim its throne, but to answer that call means to bear the consequences. Everything — especially choice — has a cost. Challenges lay in wait. The road to supremacy is wound in suffering, and to know the truth is to know madness. And so, the Maddened awakens...

Immaterial Plane, Mysticism

Even without the system notifying Kieran of the Secret Realm entrance, Kieran knew what stood before him. This torii gate's energy signature matched a Secret Realm's unique presence. 

Though this wasn't Kieran's first run-in with a Secret Realm or Secret Trial, he was pretty shocked since he had many prepared for the future. Moreover, this was one of the first Secret Realm he came in contact with that didn't require a Realm Key to open.

Even the Arcane Dominion, which admittedly had to be a high-level Secret Realm given the Arcane One's status, required Kieran to collect the Realm Key Fragments. 

But once Kieran considered the grading of this trial, he felt it was understandable. A 1.5-star Secret Trial wasn't the most difficult, but it was problematic for his current State of Being.
