Lucas never expected his gaming skills to change his life—literally. At 30 years old, single, and stuck in a dead-end warehouse job, Lucas spends his nights gaming and dodging social interactions. But when his best friend convinces him to try a next-gen VRMMORPG, Dungeon Realms Online, everything takes a turn for the ridiculous. Instead of becoming a noble knight or an all-powerful mage, the game’s AI assigns him the most humiliating class imaginable: VIRGIN DESTROYER. Now trapped in a hyper-realistic fantasy world, Lucas discovers that his strength scales with his “intimate” experiences, but there’s one problem—he’s a hopeless virgin. Armed with only a katana, absurdly powerful stats, and a list of combat skills that force him to scream out very questionable attack names, Lucas must navigate dungeons, defeat powerful bosses, and somehow survive the constant chaos of his growing harem of overly affectionate (and sometimes dangerous) fantasy women. Will he become the strongest hero this world has ever seen, or will he die of secondhand embarrassment first? One thing’s for sure—he’s never playing an MMO the same way again.

Instead, he accidentally dominated battlefields, broke ancient cultivation records, and unknowingly became a legend feared across the realms. And the worst part? He had no idea how any of it happened.

I never imagined that something like this could happen to me, but it did. As a teacher in British Columbia, I’ve always been cautious about who I trust and how I spend my money. However, when I received a message from someone claiming to be a facilitator for child adoption, everything seemed legitimate at first. I had been looking to adopt, and this opportunity seemed too good to pass up. The scammer was convincing, telling me they had connections with agencies that could fast-track the process. They explained that I needed to pay a certain amount to cover various “administrative fees,” and that I would soon be matched with a child. After a few conversations, I wired a total of $9,000 to the person they claimed was part of the adoption agency.But soon after, things began to unravel. The scammer started offering vague excuses for delays, and communication became increasingly sparse. I asked for more details and proof of their legitimacy, but their responses were always ambiguous.
