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.

Jake's heart tightened. He knew that it would come to this at the end. And he hoped that it wouldn't. But one thing that he noticed was that the scientist in front of him didn't have a HP bar seen.
That meant one of two things.
She was an indestructible NPC. One that could control what happened in the boss realm.
Every single god was one, but they never appeared in the game, so rarely did someone get smitten by one of the gods.
And then, there were the NPCs that weren't meant to be battled. These NPCs also didn't have a HP bar, because they weren't supposed to die.
Jake hoped that it was the latter. If it was the former, then there were going to be more problems than just dying once. He could lose his karma, and he could lose many of his items in the inventory.
