24 year-old Richter Maier stands at the pinnacle of Swordsmanship — a competitive combat sport, whose glory was stolen by the first-ever immersive VR fantasy game: Mirage. The game grew more and more popular, rising to a global sensation - leaving Richter at a loss as his disciples and competitors quit to pursue a career in-game... Until the line between fantasy and reality blurred. Earth was suddenly indoctrinated into the 'System', with dungeons and monsters and classes eerily similar to that game, Mirage. A game he never played. Now Richter has a chance to regain his fame, and even more ways to gain strength. But he'll have to combat betrayal, interstellar beings, revenge, and his own lack of knowledge before he gets anywhere close. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for reading!

In the great upper realms where beings of long lasting lifespan and never ending youth and great powers of cultivation lived,there was one realm in particular that was most interesting and that was the 5th realm,but even though the 5th realm had 209 domains and unimaginable cultivatoring talents,one domain stood out the most and that was the number one ranked domain of the 5th realm,Azure domain.

Sinclaire Judith didn’t ask for much in life-at least she thinks so, a jab at her sister, and maybe not having to retake math tests.

All because she took one wrong step. One misstep through what looked like empty air but turned out to be a Gate of Revelation. She’d survived, sure, but now she’s stuck with powers she doesn’t want, silhouettes she can’t escape, and the ever-present question: why me?
