After deciphering an ancient manuscript that leads to the systematic technology of the past, the government with the joint forces of the other factions leads to the creation of the Virtual Reality. Well, it's not really virtual reality since you can actually live in this virtual reality without worrying for food since data can be used as food. This technology is called Reality Verse. Reality Verse allows a human to get transported to the Virtual Reality. The real body will disappear and will appear in the world of data so that you can nourish yourself without worrying for food although that will be known as the add-on during the first month of the game. Many things are being used by this technology, helping the people to be successful in the real world. Many started using this and eventually, games surfaced that can be used in this technology rises up.

The only downside is that, there is only one game that got successfully risen up to the masses. It is the Alternate World. A game that pushed everyone's limits to the extreme. Moreover, the game made it profitable for gamers since they can exchange their in-game currency into real money. Moreover, the game is more on skills on the individual rather than the skills in game and stats on armor and characters seems to be proven as useless numbers as the real skills of the player in real life is more applied here rather than the systematic and unbelievable movements of the players like some sort of expert. If you know real fighting and has the skills in real life, you are likely to become one of the overlords in the game. Also, the game affects reality and players who do work out in the game is equivalent to players doing workout in reality.

The game is running for 25 years, but until now, no one have ever reached the level cap of the game and the top players all over the world are struggling to reach the top before they are overtaken by someone and steal their glory. After the launch of the game, strong people started emerging all around the world, stating that the game is not that simple as it seems. Many have reached the conclusion and most gained their dreams.

Year 2XXX

25 years passed after the beginning of the game, I, Manato Tsukasa already became a professional player in the game with level 500, 500 more levels before the level cap. My profession is Magic Knight, a character that can use both magic and swordsmanship skills. For the past 25 years, I was bullied in the game, failing me to rise up quickly but due to years of perseverance and hard work, I am now one of the top tier players in the Alternate World.

It's been a while since I played the game and meet my fiancee who is Scarlet Snow, also known as Akari Takazuchi, a beautiful but influential woman. She is however, a level 219 Elementalist* in the game. Our fate intertwined when we are both in the same party when I raided the Abyss Mode Dungeon. We became acquaintances then into lovers.


5 years from that, I proposed to her. After I proposed to her, our marriage is now underway. Today marks the last day that I will be single and will cross the marriage life tomorrow. After logging out of the game, I immediately return to my mansion that I personally bought to finish the preparations of our wedding. I opened the door of my mansion that I prepared for my honeymoon with Akari when I noticed that the door is open. I quickly remembered that it was closed when I last came here and I was surprised to see it open. I can't be wrong because I have a Photographic Memory. However, I quickly wipe it out of my mind and quickly gets inside.

Before I can even do anything much, a shadow lunges towards me. I was caught surprise to this and I was forced to defend. With my reaction time, I can defend any surprise attacks against me. The shadow actually stabbed me, but due to my immediate reaction, I avoided getting stabbed in the heart and only got stabbed in the elbow. However, I felt a bit dizzy and lightheaded. I can also feel that my body is getting numb. I can only move my head, eyes and mouth but barely.

"Who... are... you?!" I groaned, struggling to move.

The shadow, quickly stopped the shadow form which is one of the items sale for Reality Verse that can be used in the real world. It covers the whole body of the person using, making him or her into a human shadow form.

It made me so shocked when I finally saw who it was. It was none other than my fiancee, Akari.

"You..! Why?" I struggled but felt so weak to move.

Akari grinned, not even a hint of pity to my situation, instead, it seems like she enjoyed looking at my current state. I gritted my teeth, despite the paralysis in my body, this body of mine is still strong. However, the poison is slowly flowing in my veins, I guess I won't last that long. However, I refuse to die here. Not with a backstabbing b*tch like her!

I closed my eyes and perform Sudden Strength. It is a skill in the game that can allow the user to escape temporarily from movement debuff for a few minutes. Apparently, this skill can also be used in the real world which is really good. I also activated Sprint, another skill in the game that can be learned in the real world too which is a ridiculous name since we can really sprint without activating it. The effect of Sprint though is to increase the movement speed of the user. It allows the user to run fast enough in a few minutes which could be considered swift like the wind.

I punched her abdomen swiftly, causing her to feel pain that causes anyone to feel weak. Grasping the chance, I immediately run outside the mansion. I no longer cared about my mansion as I prefer to get rid of this predicament as fast as possible. She will not be able to follow me for a while now but sooner or later, she will follow suit after she recovered. I won't be killed this way. I can't accept it!

Just like in the game, the abilities that can be learned in the game also have limited effects and its effects will run dry soon. My Sudden Strength is slowly running out and it won't last for a few minutes now. I quickly run to the alley not far from my mansion only to see a person crawling, bathing his own blood. Due to this, my life has arrived into the crossroads after learning the sudden betrayal.
