On the first day of Alex's sophomore year in high school, the elusive company of H20 Software Corporation paid a visit. Why? You ask...

Penny has three brothers: one is a billionaire CEO, the second is the youngest military lieutenant, and the last is a successful actor. These three successful men had only one common ground: bullying Penny, their sore-eye of a little sister. The sister they never wished to have, and the one who claimed to be their real sister, while the sister they treasured all this time was a fake. After living a life of maltreatment in her aunt's home, some people of high standing came to Penny with news of her real parentage. She thought she was finally saved from her aunt’s clutches, unaware that what awaited her was worse. At 13, Penny only wished for one thing: for her brothers to love her and treat her like family, just as much as they loved their fake sister. She worked and studied ten times harder than anybody else just to be accepted by them. In her desperation, she foolishly fell into a trap set by a malicious person, not knowing her actions would result in the downfall of her brothers and her ending up in jail with a death sentence. On her execution day, Penny had only one thought in mind: If she ever got to go back in time, her brothers could pamper their fake sister for all she cared! She wanted nothing to do with them! And much to her surprise, Penny found herself back on the day it all began: the day she was born. As promised, this time, she wouldn’t foolishly try to earn her brothers' love and affection. Never mind family! She’d just make a lot of money, live in luxury, and make a family of her own! But wait, why is it now that she didn’t want anything to do with her brothers, they kept poking their noses into her business? Weren’t they supposed to pamper their fake sister? Why won’t they leave her alone?! And how on earth was she married in this lifetime? To make matters worse, this husband she never had in her first life was suddenly volunteering to be the father of her children?!

During the demon-summoning ceremony, Aiwass finally recalled his past life's memories. This should be an online game that his family's company had released and operated for six years. Now, his foster father was the leader of the latest version's antagonist organization. He would expose his identity six years later, hesitate and then defect from the protagonist's side. Ultimately, because he decided to take a fatal strike meant for the player character, he was killed by his upright older brother in a transitional CG without even a chance to enter the main content. ——But the problem was not too significant. Aiwass also knew many secret advancement routes exclusive to the player character, as well as the Nurturing Secret Sequel regulations of the various Paths. He believed he could reverse his unfortunate fate…… So now there was only one issue left. "According to the original plot, shouldn't I have been rescued by the protagonist before this lousy ceremony even began?" Tied to the ceremonial altar as a sacrifice, Aiwass fell into contemplation. —————— Keywords: Victorian Fantasy, Amber Flow

In the year 2142, gaming technology has reached unprecedented levels. Noah Kaizen, a 22-year-old gamer, stumbles upon an ancient video game cartridge in his family’s old storage room. Curious, he boots it up on his cutting-edge Quantum Console, which can run even the most primitive of games. The game, "Eclipse of the Gods", is an old, AI-driven medieval action RPG filled with powerful bosses, an intricate world, and a forgotten ending. Noah spends hours grinding and finally defeats the Demon King, the ultimate villain. However, he never completes the final quest—delivering the Demon King's heart to the capital's temple. He assumes it doesn't matter. Eager to play something modern, Noah inserts the latest action RPG game into his console—without removing the old one. Something goes terribly wrong. The two AIs fuse into one, merging their worlds and corrupting the system. A sudden energy surge engulfs Noah, and his consciousness fades into darkness. When he wakes up—he is inside the world of "Eclipse of the Gods." But instead of becoming the Hero, a noble, or a legendary figure... he is reborn as a mere commoner.
