Dome of Protection "Rome"—May 19, 2070 On this day, a boy named Enzo Emmanuel Romano was born. He was the youngest of five brothers and sisters. One day, he would be known as one of the 7 Gods… the legendary VRMMORPG player, "Ceaser." At that time, the Earth's population had been forced to live inside huge domes to protect them from the climate they had destroyed. For the most part, these domes had been constructed around the world's largest surviving cities. Rome was one of them. But, unlike…-

Apophis had finally succeeded... He'd killed a demigod! It was an incredible feat, especially considering the difference in power between a Rank B and Rank A-. The Federation had believed that Apophis had killed Regnier back on Cronos I—though that had, of course, been a ruse. There was no way Apophis could have killed a demigod like Regnier back then. But now he really had done it! He'd triumphed over such a tremendous threat. After a few moments of savoring his victory, it was time to loot…

DungEater continued to lean over Apophis, his liquid metal face staring impassively down at Apophis's face of black smoke. His remaining arm was still melting, dripping into Apophis's ribcage. The metal of his body was vaporizing into microscopic particles that bonded with the smoke-like molecules that formed Apophis's own body, slowly taking over his enemy's body from the inside.

Apophis scanned the humanoid form in front of him, hardly able to believe his eyes. ╔══════════════╕ ╟─╼ PLAYER ║ ╰╼: DungEater ║ ╰╼: ??? ║ ╰╼: A- ║ ╰╼: Boxer ║ ╰╼: Liquid ╚══════════════╛ Apophis whispered, "It is indeed him! How is this possible?! At this temperature, even the strongest metal should disintegrate!" But something else caught his eye, something far more troubling: DungEater…

Terra—South Industrial Zone A hundred players from a minor guild touched down on the planet in their guild's two corvettes. Rather than trying to help the players stuck on Terra, they immediately made their way to one of the many huge factories in the sector. They killed the dozen Imperial soldiers who had the misfortune to be patrolling the area at that time, then made themselves busy looting the factory's abandoned goods. This kind of behavior was unfortunately common in Horus. As soon as a…

Terra Orbit—Imperial Fleet The Imperial ships fired long-range magnetic cannon salvos at the stellar dragon, one humming bolt after another. These cannons were both ultra powerful and diabolically precise, though they were limited by only being capable of firing one shot at a time before needing a moderate recharge time. This limited their usage to huge targets like cruisers and battleships, making them slow and awkward weapons against agile targets like corvettes. But only ultra-heavy weapons like…

The day of Grand Admiral Oskiol's announcement happened also to be the seven-month anniversary of the release of Horus. At that time, most players were between Level 15 and Level 20. This was a power level high enough that most players had the capacity to pursue dangerous missions in space and in Dungeons, earning them great wealth. Considering that most players gave a large portion of all their Galactic Coins to their guilds, this meant that most guilds with at least a thousand active members could…

One day before the assault on Warehouse "Souley" Isirus System (United Federation of Planets)—Primary system space station A man in uniform strode forward through the corridor, accompanied by another man wearing bionic combat gear. Around them, the walls were still scorched and smoking in the aftermath of laser cannon fire. Federation soldiers hurriedly moved all around, busy dragging away the corpses of Imperial soldiers who had fallen in battle during their desperate defense. The Federation's…

Apophis immediately scanned the strange being which had appeared before him. ╔══════════════╕ ╟─╼ PLAYER ║ ╰╼: DungEater ║ ╰╼: ??? ║ ╰╼: A- ║ ╰╼: Boxer ║ ╰╼: Liquid ╚══════════════╛ A player?! Apophis couldn't believe this. When he first saw the strange phenomenon occurring in Lucifer's skeleton, he'd been sure this was some monster, or a champion of the gods he'd previously pissed off. But for…

There was no more doubt in Apophis's mind: his opponent was indeed Lucifer… though with a new set of impossible powers. Time was running out. It was time for Apophis to end this duel. After all, despite the power and trickery which Apophis had just shown, it was nothing compared to what Apophis felt he was now capable of! Multiclassing was indeed a very rare ability in Horus, but even among those who gained this power, it was often foolish to use it as recklessly as Lucifer had apparently done.…
