When the world’s first AI-run game launches, billions log in expecting power, fame, and a fair start. Riley gets none of that. While others walk away from the opening trial with strength, speed, and obvious abilities, Riley leaves with something no one understands—a forgotten path, a hidden class, and a power that only awakens when the world goes dark. By day, he’s weaker than everyone around him. By night… he becomes something else entirely. As players begin to realise the game isn’t as fair—or as forgiving—as they thought, secrets start surfacing. Paths that can be missed. Power that can be lost forever. And choices that don’t just shape builds… but define who survives. Riley isn’t trying to be the best. He’s just the one who chose differently.

A serial killer targeted me. My sister-in-law was assaulted and murdered while trying to save me. Not only did I refuse to call the police, I pushed my father-in-law and mother-in-law down a flight of stairs when they came to help. I even helped the killer destroy the evidence. When my husband learned that his entire family got killed, he broke down in tears. He grabbed me by the collar and demanded, "Why? Why would you do this?" I deliberately waved photographs of his family's gruesome deaths in front of him and burst into laughter. "Why?" I sneered. "Because they deserved it." My parents begged me to cooperate so I wouldn't be sentenced to death. Instead, I publicly severed all ties with them. Meanwhile, the murderer who escaped justice struck again, claiming another victim. As public outrage reached its peak, I was selected for the Memory Extraction Program. Before the sentence was carried out, my husband asked me one final time, "The Memory Extraction System is still a prototype. You could die during the procedure. "Tell us the truth now, and there's still a chance to make things right." I slowly raised my head to look at him. "You're not getting a single word out of me." The crowd instantly erupted. People shouted that a worthless life like mine deserved to die. But when my memories were finally extracted, they were the ones crying and begging someone to save me.
