SOUL SEARCH: Dualities

Eighteen year old gamer Mato Takahara is put in a dangerous position after taking part in a failed BETA test for the world's first virtual reality MMO game(Blades in Paradise) which resulted in him gaining dual personalities due to the AI that established his connection with the game world.

The AI which has now gained sentience begins to struggle against Mato for dominance over his soul. Because of this, Mato finds himself embarking on a perilous path in-game in order to master his soul and as thus, restore the thin line which lies between the game world and reality.
He in turn; encounters several friends along the way as well as several foes which he must overcome to reach his goal.

Yet, the overall question remains... Can Mato gain mastery of his soul in time or will he sink into the abyss as his AI counterpart takes over his soul?

To accomplish this task he enlists the help of Kayu, a seemingly carefree dark elf(a third personality in form of his in game avatar) to go ahead and exploit the limits of the human soul.

"Jeez! Don't go dumping all your expectations on me damnit!"
Sigh....
"Fine, I'll play along with this game of yours but mind you, I'm also gonna have some fun while I'm at it; so grab your popcorn, cuz it's gonna be a bumpy ride!"~Kayu.
