At Miyuki Eastern High, a boy with silver-white hair with crimson-red eyes walked his way toward his classroom. He is not that popular nor is he that much of a loner, He has friends he can talk to, dreams he wants to achieve, and games he wants to play. That boy's name is none other than Amane Furuya. One day, while Furuya was walking home he heard a bunch of boys talking about a new game that just got updated recently.

"Hey, can you believe it? Some players actually took down a unique boss!" One boy said.

"Yeah! They must be high-leveled with a lot of skill!" Another boy replied.

"Hey, have you heard about this one yet? One of them is a hottie." Another boy said

"Yeah, I heard about that! Man if they ever formed a clan then I'm joining." Another boy claimed

"But still man, beating one weekly boss is already hard enough so imagine a unique boss." Another boy said.

"They gotta at least need to land on the top five strongest players in Shangri-la Frontier." One boy said

'Shangri-La Frontier. I think my sister is pushing a game with the same name as me. Even going as far as to buy me that game herself.'

Furuya sighed as he thought of trying to give the game a chance.

After buying some stuff to keep himself from sleeping. He went back to his house. Unsurprisingly, no one greeted him and he didn't greet anyone because he knew his sister was busy. Whether it's her job as a model or playing games, as long as he is not bothered when he is gaming then he's fine with it. After preparing a ready-to-go lunch for his sister's work for tomorrow, eating his dinner, and washing the dishes. Furuya took a break and decided to play the game his sister had been nagging him about.

"Hmm~ I don't know that much about designing a character since all I play are strategic games. I barely play any RPGs. " Furuya pondered as he was thinking of what he would. do to his character.

'Maybe I should just use my actual face? They will just think that I customized my character to look like that anyway so using my actual face won't make a difference.'

'Let's see, Male, Silver-white hair, 5ft. 11inch, Crimson-red eyes and that's probably it... I think.'

'Class? Well, I only know how to use a dagger and a sword. What are the options anyway? Swordsman's a no-go since you barely have any advantage with a heavy-hitter, Bandit's not an option since I don't know how people can wield double swords so... Hmm? Assassin? The weapon is a single dagger, it also has good mobility so I guess.'

"Hmm~, I'll take the starter armor for now. I don't want to be branded as a pervert on the first day. And I think that's it. Join!'

"Ahh~, It's been a while since I played an RPG. The graphics are good! No lag or glitches! Not that I experienced it though but still! For a game, You would want to wish that you live here!'

"Now let's see, Tutorial... Kill monsters to level up I know.. Oh! You can have weapons as a mob's loot! Good, good what else... You can combine skills at the skill garden? That's new... Special events pop out from time to time?! What's the description?... Hmmm... Learn skills, Gain titles, and obtain weapons exclusive only to your class, huh~."

Every word was said with anticipation. He knows some RPG games but none have the things this game has. Furuya can't wait to try out everything this game has to offer but he's wary about something... The unique bosses.

'Based on what I read and heard about these unique bosses, there are only thirteen unique bosses and if one of them is killed, they won't respawn like a weekly boss. And worse, some of these bosses wander around. Although there are conditions to summon them, some people summon them by accident. There is also a chance they'll mark you... ' Based on what he has read and heard, Furuya knows that fighting one alone with a low level is useless.
