A group of teen gamers were excited for a new VR game released by the most popular video game company in the world, SUMMIT. Although it seemed like a fun VR RPG with a large open world, Joey would slowly realize that something was off. After figuring out that they couldn't leave the game due to something called an InterLink that's installed into the headset, Joey, Dallas, Jr and Zane have to fight their way to try and escape to game, as well as to take down SUMMIT. As they go onto their journey, they would make friends, like KØRA, a expert VR gamer who is revealed to be a girl they know from school and Rhys, a self-aware NPC, as well as some enemies, like Juno Braddock, a bounty hunter hired by SUMMIT to eliminate the heroes so they can't escape, and Micah, leader of the Reavers who inhabit the Outskirts, school bully of the groups and son of the CEO of SUMMIT, Warrick. As they proceed with their journey, they keep one thing in mind: to value their life. If they die in the game, they die in real life.
Follow them as they travel through different locations and meet different characters in this action/adventure story. Go through these different and beautiful locations with these characters, like The Outskirts, a barren wasteland inhabited by the Reavers, Kimura City, a Japanese inspired cyberpunk city occupied by Yakuza, corrupt police and scrapped humanoids called Enhanced, Providence, a large town occupied by a military led by General Addock, and many more locations. Will they find a way out of the game? Who will live and die? Read and find out!
(This series is inspired by a shit-ton of things, such as Sword Art Online, Mad Max, No Guns Life, Blade Runner, Cyberpunk 2077, and so much more! Also, read some fun facts about some characters, enemies and locations by the end of every chapter or two.)
I'll try and release them as fast as I can! Anyways, I hope you enjoy this story I had in mind and I hope you make fun of my shitty writing!
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.
