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.

Returning to the Flying Pavilion
The next instant, Jake was taken to the place where he was when he last logged out.
The store. The top of the store, to be precise.
Glancing at his friends list and the guild list, he could see that not many were online. It was just seven hours since he told everyone to log out.
There was still a whole hour left, and that was an hour that the guild members could not afford to just let go. Rest was hard to come by with the game taking so much of their time.
Once it became their livelihood, the game no longer felt like a game, and more like a job. That was the terrible circumstance that everyone had to live through.
Jake stretched his hands as he went down to the second and first floors of the store. Traffic was slowing down, just like he expected. With the new update, everyone was probably wondering what they had to do about that.
