World Online
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.

The Ninth
Jake clenched his sword as he looked at the opening from which the ninth follower was going to come through.
It was clear that the labyrinth had acted to make sure that the evil beasts would be able to get to the center easily, while Jake and the others would suffer.
Jake looked at the ground, which darkened. And then, there was a boot visible.
Black as night could be, a boot appeared at the bottom of the entrance. And then, the man that wore it appeared.
It was a cloaked man who had appeared. His hood on which created a shadow that cast itself onto the ninth's face, completely hiding it.
His robes were also black, and the only thing that wasn't black were his two shriveled hands that were barely visible. And even they were a grimy gray.
"Your god is quite strong even though he retreated like a coward. To think that he is strong enough to suppress all of us to the first tier, especially in this place." The ninth chuckled as he said.
