Intro:

In a small, cluttered apartment on the outskirts of a bustling city, Richard "Rick" Anderson spent his days navigating the virtual realms of video games and immersing himself in the colorful world of anime. He was a retired army veteran, a tough old man with a grizzled appearance that told stories of battles long past. But in the peaceful world of the 21st century, he was just another retiree, looking for purpose and entertainment in his twilight years.

Rick had always been an avid gamer and an anime fan, interests that had sustained him through the years. He was known in online communities as "Reacherd," where he had a small but loyal following of fellow gamers and otaku who appreciated his commentary and insights. Though he might have seemed out of place with his age, his passion for these subcultures was unwavering.

One ordinary evening, as he was streaming his gameplay and discussing his favorite anime series with his audience, a strange occurrence interrupted his broadcast. The screen glitched, and he found himself inexplicably pulled into a realm of blinding light and swirling colors. It was as if he had been torn from his living room and thrust into the heart of a cosmic storm.

Confused and disoriented, Rick realized that he was not alone. Surrounding him were countless young gamers and anime fans, all in various states of shock and disbelief. Before them stood a group of enigmatic, shimmering creatures, their forms shifting and changing like ethereal apparitions.

One of these beings stepped forward, its form resembling a sword, and began to speak. It explained that they were the "Chosen Ones," selected to be transported to a world of fantasy and adventure. This realm was rife with uncharted territories, ancient mysteries, and formidable adversaries, and the young generation had been summoned to take up the mantle of heroes.

However, as the explanation continued, Rick soon realized that he did not belong to this group of youthful heroes. In fact, he had been chosen by mistake, a glaring error that the beings reluctantly acknowledged. In their world, only the young were meant to be summoned, but Rick's knowledge of gaming and anime, despite his age, had led to his unintended inclusion.

The creatures debated whether to send him back to Earth to maintain the secrecy of their existence, but Rick's determination and resilience convinced them otherwise. He challenged them to give him a chance, to prove that he could hold his own in the fantastical world they had been thrust into. The sword-like creature decided to grant him a unique opportunity, a test of survival.

Instead of returning to Earth, Rick was sent alone to the world of demons, a perilous and treacherous land rumored to be filled with nightmarish horrors and secrets that defied imagination. He would be left to fend for himself, to prove his worthiness in the face of overwhelming challenges.

Before he was cast into the unknown, the sword-like creature offered him a gift. It bestowed upon him the appearance and vitality of a young man, giving him a fresh start in this hostile new world. Rick, now appearing as a young man but with the wisdom of his years, accepted the gift with gratitude and determination.

Thus, Rick's incredible journey began. For 60 long years, he wandered the unforgiving realm of demons, gradually becoming a formidable presence, earning the respect and fear of those he encountered. His knowledge of gaming strategies, his resilience from his army days, and his sheer determination had transformed him into an enigmatic figure, feared and respected throughout the land.

And as the final test loomed, Rick was about to embark on a journey that would define his destiny. He would become a necromancer mystic knight, wielding powers and abilities that would place him at the heart of a tale of darkness, redemption, and unexpected heroism in a world that would soon come to know him as a villain.
