Lucas woke up in his small room, where the only light came from his cracked phone. Life wasn't good. His parents passed away, and greedy relatives took everything he had. Now, he struggled in a convenience store to make ends meet.
Groaning, Lucas pushed himself off the creaky mattress and shuffled to the cramped bathroom. The harsh light revealed a reflection of a young man with a handsome face framed by long, messy black hair. He absentmindedly adjusted the glasses perched on his nose, a subtle addition to an otherwise rugged appearance.
Looking at his phone, he saw something interesting: "Horizon Nova - The Game-Changer in Virtual Reality MMORPGs!" The game promised not just fun but also real money. Over a million people were playing. This could be Lucas's chance to get back on his feet.
