26-year-old Asher Williams was a successful and hardworking game creator dubbed as 'The Reaper' since his games 'took away the player's souls' by immersing them with the beautiful art, heartwarming yet tragic stories and smooth gameplay. His most popular game named 'Zero Calamity: Freedom' consisted of raising the playable character's magical abilities and strengths to prove himself worthy of being king and saving his country from impending doom. However, after the very anticipated update, Asher died in his sleep.
While he might've died naturally and without any pain whatsoever, Asher had passed with many regrets, his main one being the fact that he never experienced what others would call a normal childhood. His family was caring and loving, but poor. This meant that he had to work his ass off to live 'comfortably' (which wasn't that pleasant if you think about it). He couldn't fully enjoy his life and have the stereotypical infancy he always wished for because he had to mature quickly to help provide for his family. After his death, however, his soul transmigrated into a different universe riddled with magic, new opportunities, and mysteries just waiting to be unraveled. And let's not mention the fact that Asher won't let the opportunity of a new life pass him by. Watch how Asher learns how to deal with his new environment while also improving himself both mentally and physically (while also unknowingly try to survive against a powerful, unknown enemy).

"You will stay at the Pierce household as a servant under Asher Pierce. Everything he does must immediately be reported to me. I suspect he is working with the enemy."
"Yes, my lord."

"Zacharia, teach me!"
Zacharia's eyes shone with amusement. "You want me to teach you how to... disappear?"
Asher nodded, his eyes filled with curiosity. "Yes. I once gave one of my characters the ability to disappear. I also want to be able to do it!"

"What do you mean by that?" Zacharia seethed out in anger. Kio was by his side, his cold mask breaking after hearing the news.
"Young master Zacharia, Young master Kio... young master Asher has been kidnapped by the enemy."
