Long ago in the high mountains of a secret empire, there were two powerful kingdoms split by the vast sea. One, a kingdom of fierce fire and power, full of mighty warriors and valiant royals. Their weapons ignited with flames of passion, and their skills were unmatched due to their discipline. A castle made of embers deemed it's walls untouchable to any foe. This kingdom was called the Crimson Demesne. Across the coastline, on the opposite cliff's peak, stood a vigorous, yet elegant castle, made by the grace of the stars. It is called the Steller Estate. Where hallways are finely plated with constellations of each record of the night sky. The shining silver and sapphire blades held by the royals were enlightened by stardust, reaching power beyond any imagination. These two kingdoms remained isolated from each other, for the two had long history of conflicts for power and rule over The Empire of Deargach Réaltaí. Countless bloody battles over crowns and thrones lead to the empire losing many adorn leaders. … Decades later, when the new kings and queens of both kingdoms were crowned, the Crimsons vowed to make amends with the Stellars and end the times of reckless exchange. Although, the villagers from both kingdoms still had their own disputes about the matter. Time will only tell who is really to trust.

The most powerful among them, reaching Level 500, can obliterate entire cities with a single strike. The line between reality and the virtual world has blurred, and the promise of limitless power has drawn the attention of many. The protagonist, Kai, was once a promising player in this vast virtual reality universe, but his life was cut short in an unexpected betrayal. However, death is not the end in this world. Kai is reborn into the same universe, granted a second chance at life—but with a twist. In this new life, he inherits a unique ability: the power of Copying, enabling him to replicate any ability he comes into contact with, regardless of its origin. As Kai navigates his rebirth, he learns of a looming threat—the Demon King, an ancient and powerful entity who has been hiding in the darkest corners of the virtual world, waiting for the moment to corrupt the minds and souls of those who play. The Demon King's influence is spreading, and with each passing day, more and more players succumb to his corruption, becoming mindless instruments of destruction. While many players are focused on leveling up and amassing power, Kai's journey is different. As he gathers abilities from the highest levels of the game, he realizes that his true power lies not in becoming a hero or villain but in shaping the fate of the world. With the ability to copy and combine powers, Kai faces a moral dilemma—should he wield this power to destroy the Demon King, or is there another way to stop the corruption without becoming a tyrant himself?
