*Gasp!!*
Allyn abruptly wakes up. His heart is pounding very hard.
"Where I'm I?" he mumbles as he actively surveys his surrounding.
For a second, he had thought everything he remembers was all just a dream. However, this... this is not his room.
Though it seems unlikely, Allyn still hoped he had somehow made it back home...
"You're awake, that's a relief," said a robot as it walked closer to him.
"What happened?" Allyn asked.
He is disappointed at the fact that he is still stuck in this world.
"You almost died?" the robot replied.
"Okay?" he gave the robot a meaningful look, saying; "You still haven't told me how I'm alive,"
"This is how it happened," the robot gives a detailed description...
Flashback...
Allyn got hit by the tail of a Dragon Bolt. The force shot him many meters away as he crashed into multiple buildings with force.
This was too much for him to handle, and his suit deactivated as he crashed to the ground. He also lost consciousness.
The Dragon Bolt went after the helpless boy to devour him...
"Not so fast, that prey belongs to me," says a mighty being as it smacks the Dragon with its hammer.
This is the same creature that had halted Allyn's escape attempt by shooting a large boulder his way.
*Roooaaaarrrr!!*
The Dragon Bolt got enraged by this and so both creatures began battling each other.
*Crash!! Bam!! Kabam!! Boom!!*
Their fight became more severe, and both enemies were unaware of what's about to happen.
"There he is!" says CrockFace.
He is riding a small airship and glides towards the unconscious Allyn.
"Quickly," CrockFace whispers.
Two AI robots stealthily picked Allyn and took him inside their ship...
"Alright, here goes nothing," CrockFace starts the engine and slowly levitates.
This proved quite problematic due to the large boulders that are actively crashing their way, which is a result of the rough battle between the Titan and Dragon Bolt.
Nevertheless, the airship successfully passed through and drove off...
"Huh?"
Pushing the Dragon Bolt away, the hideous giants took every step as swift as possible towards the departing airship. It stepped on a building and lift itself to the sky to destroy CrockFace's flying tech.
"Behind you!" an AI exclaimed.
"Holy!" said CrockFace. In a panic, he shifted his control and avoided a fatal attack.
While he may have escaped the first time, it wasn't over yet...
*Pew! BOOM!!*
The Dragon Bolt is a tougher enemy to handle since it can fly, and yes, it is quick. Its speed, however, isn't overwhelming or that would be certain death.
The terrifying flying creature chases after them while blasting lightning bolt their way.
This brought a lot of attention from other otherworldly beings who had no human to kill anymore. However, CrockFace is very skillful, and he avoids death while he's still at top speed.
"Damn it, the gates are closing up," says CrockFace. He had noticed the enormous gates of the wall shutting up.
If that happens before he could make it to the other side, he is going to die... there is no miracle on this one.
*WOOSH!!*
The airship speeds up, which created a few ripples in the air as it rapidly gets closer to its destination…
"We're not gonna make it,"
"We'll make it... we have to," says CrockFace, in conviction.
A very massive boulder hit the flying tech and destroyed one of its engines, and this was thrown by that relentless giant. What it had hoped did not happen, not quite as the giant had expected.
The airship under the control of CrockFace pushed onwards towards its destination...
"What the hell!!"
Everyone who saw what was headed their way darted as the flying tech passed through the gate at the last minute and crashed on whatever was on its way.
... They made it back alive.
Present>>>
"I see... so I owe you guys,"
"If you put it that way, I suppose so," says the AI in reply.
"Where is this place exactly?"
Allyn stands on his feet, and he is not with his shirt.
"The inner part of our base,"
"Right..." Allyn's mood dropped.
"Is there a problem, Mr. Allyn?"
"I just need to be alone,"
"I understand." The AI walks away. "I'll get you something to eat. You can take all the time you need."
Once Allyn was left alone by himself, he finally breaks down...
"Damn it!!" He cursed, "I can't be stuck here, I have to get back home,"
...Except he can't.

____________________________
In frustration, Allyn collapse back on the bed. It is still taking him time to accept this new reality that almost has no difference from his world.
The default highly detailed graphics gave everything a more realistic outlook. This is more alarming than he had thought.
Scrolling through his interface, he came across newsfeeds from the real world.
"No," Allyn said in disbelief.
Every Newsletter going viral has to do with a lot of deaths, all of which involved those who had played Lord of Titans online and just recently died in the game. It turns out many of them were found dead also in the real world.
"It is real, it is all real," he said.
He would have died too if it wasn't for the help rendered to him by CrockFace. Allyn doesn't know how to react anymore. Nothing is going to change. He is trapped here forever, and as much as he doesn't like the sound of that, there is no helping it.
"Hmm?"
Allyn noticed a recent change in his interface, and he got curious...
It is called an Updated Backstory!
...Seconds later, Allyn finds himself in a somewhat movie scene, similar to what had happened when he first logged in.
_____________________________
UPDATED BACKSTORY! (Recommended for all players)
A portal was once created by a mysterious group of existence. This gave access for humans from another universe to breach through the gates that are keeping all worlds apart.
Our adversary, the great lord of titan, fears humanity from the other parallel worlds, for they may be a threat to his sovereignty in the future. With the godly power he has acquired, the great lord of titan sealed every breathable gate to prevent any invaders from the outside world and prevent the unfortunate ones from ever returning to their world.
There is still one way to solve it all... Kill the current lord as a titan slayer and claim his power...
_____________________________
It seems there is still a way to return to his world. Someone has to take down that demon, whatever it may be.
This will not be an effortless task, not in the slightest, and Allyn could testify to this.
If his last encounter with an ordinary titan almost led to his death, he could only imagine how powerful the strongest one of all time would be.
"I have to get stronger," says Allyn with a stern facial expression as he scrolls back to his default interface.
_______________________________

"Not bad for a new player," Allyn is pleased with himself.
For the first time in a while, he felt at ease knowing that there was still a way to return to his world.
...There is still more work to do...
His interface revealed options of what he could become in the new world, namely; Marchant, Forge Master, Mechanic, Alchemist, and many more, which also include becoming a full-time Mage.
Of course, Allyn chose to be a full-time Mage as this would be necessary if he is going to one day battle against dangerous existence.
