The Kingmaker: Legend of the Undefeated Commander
"Saras Gayen! Are you reading those dusty old books again?" Nina Gayen's shout preceded her entrance as she banged open the door to her son's room. As she expected, she found Saras sitting on his bean bag, holding a paperback copy of World History: The Ancient Civilizations. She snatched the book from his hands and tossed it into the pile of other books covering a range of topics from politics to economics related to Earth. "Look at Ellie's daughter, Stivi. She has already reached Level 3 in the Dreamverse VR within two hours of its launch. Why are you still lounging at home?" "I am not lounging! I am studying History…" Saras protested, looking at the book pile before turning his gaze towards his mother. She stood with her hands on her hips, glaring at him as if he had committed a grave sin by not entering the game as soon as it was launched. "You are turning 25 this year. If you don't play the Dreamverse VR now and join a good guild, how will you find a wife?" Thus started his journey as he once again navigated the VR scene through the mysterious game Dreamverse VR that was said to hold the keys to Human Evolution.

At the base of the majestic Tree of Longevity, there was a Sanctuary of Life, a chamber filled with Vitae and Mana. The energies inside were so dense, that they had condensed into mist and droplets forming a Vitality Pool.
A brown platform made from the Root of a Longevity Tree was at the center of the pool, submerged a few inches under. On this platform lay the necrotized and comatose figure of the only Master Blacksmith of the Rajni City, Blacksmith Avad.
Suddenly, his eyes flew open, and a ghastly shout pierced the tranquil air. The sound echoed through the chamber, a heart-wrenching wail of agony as his necrotic cells began a painful process of rejuvenation.
The mist seemed to pulse with his cries, each one more desperate than the last, alerting the occupants of the office above the chamber.
Sumuki, the Chief Administrator of Rajni City, and Povnar, the City's Guard Commander, rushed to the chamber, their hearts pounding with urgency.
