Hiroto Sakamura, an 18-year-old gamer with a competitive streak, has always thrived on challenges. When his best friend convinces him to try the VRMMORPG Kingdoms of Legend, Hiroto is thrust into a breathtaking virtual world unlike anything he's ever experienced. Playing as Shadowfang, a rogue specializing in speed and stealth, he sets out to explore the game’s vast landscapes, defeat powerful enemies, and uncover its hidden secrets.

But Hiroto’s journey takes an unexpected turn when he stumbles upon a mysterious blessing after defeating a high-level enemy in an unmarked dungeon. This rare ability allows him to absorb the shadows of defeated monsters, growing stronger and unlocking abilities beyond what the game’s mechanics should allow. As rumors of this unique power spread, Hiroto finds himself caught between players who envy his newfound strength and NPC factions with their own agendas.

With his friend by his side and danger lurking in every shadow, Hiroto must navigate the delicate balance of trust and betrayal, tackle quests that could reshape the world, and face increasingly deadly foes. As he climbs the ranks and attracts the attention of guilds, rival players, and even the enigmatic developers of Kingdoms of Legend, Hiroto begins to realize that the game holds secrets far more dangerous than he ever imagined.

In this immersive world where shadows hold power and alliances can shift in an instant, Hiroto must rise to the challenge—or risk losing everything, including his grip on reality. In Kingdoms of Legend, the line between game and survival has never been thinner.
