When a virtual game becomes reality but you’re the only player. I really enjoyed reading this novel and you should too! The synopsis is pretty bad so I’ll explain a little about the story. We follow Sean, a gamer and raid leader. But the game he plays, Miracle, has suddenly turned into reality with himself as the only player left. Everything is real but he still has game abilities like leveling up. But he doesn’t have his possessions and level from the game. That’s the bare minimum you need to know. As for what kind of setting, it’s a sword and magic world. There are kingdoms and empires as well as demonic creatures. The gods exist but mostly in lore... for now? There are magical beasts and species that don’t exist in reality, like dog-headed guys. They are lizards though. Others might say the novel is slow or has nothing unique, but I see it as a high-quality, polished writing that is very exciting to read even if it’s a bit slow (It didn’t feel slow but you can tell it’s slow). They take their time describing architecture, clothing, and even game UI. I like the MC. He’s not a wimp nor does he do things without a purpose. He’s laid-back when he can afford to but is an authoritative commander that takes no sh*t. He requires absolute trust which doesn’t help when he’s just a young boy in the eyes of others. He also only brags to and teases his companion. His companion (which is a girl of course) is very nice too! She was meh in the beginning since first impressions are sometimes off but then you learn more about her and see her personality better later on. She definitely has a story behind her and is a pretty good fit with the MC. The story has no solid direction for now other than getting stronger. Despite that though, the story is feels pretty linear with some degree of freedom when it should feel kinda vague and ambiguous. That’s a good thing if you couldn’t tell. But there are definitely other goals that they are aiming to accomplish, just that I cannot say because smol spoilers. Just so you know, Sean knows of what happens in the future of the game and has pretty in-depth knowledge of game mechanics and information. Though sometimes those game mechanics don’t follow through since it became reality. The translation is very high-quality but there are very few but noticeable mistakes. Such as DUBUFF instead of DEBUFF. There aren’t many cases of this. I can count them on one hand but they are very easy to notice. All in all, great read and I expect it to be one of the better ones in this batch of trial reads even though this is the first one I’ve read from them. Now it’s time for this man to sleep. It’s 6:45 as of writing this.

LIKEOnly read 6 chapters thus far. But do they explain better about "experience points"? Seems like they use the same word for 2 different things. Experience points to level up, and when he level up he gets 2 "experience points" Wich is basically skill points. Think the way they explained it kinda messy at least for me
