For the sake of his family, Ren embarked on the popular VRMMORPG, COVENANT, that used real-time in-game currency. But being a mediocre player who only knows how to gather information, he was put in a supporting role.

As the game explodes in popularity and every multibillion-dollar company invested in the game, things have turned for the worse for Ren. Due to the amount of information he gathered, the cheats, secrets, quests, and bugs he discovered, he was silent in fear of selling the information to the other guilds.

But given a second chance, he went back in time when his father was still alive and COVENANT was just in its starting phase.

This time . . . he wouldn’t be that guy on the side who gathered information from day in and day out for ten years. 

Equipped with the games knowledge he accumulated, he will become . . . an Alchemist!

Chrono Mage? Djin Master? Summoner? Necromancer?
Chaos Lord?

What good are those? 

Sure they’re powerful and rare classes and sought after by guilds, but it’s the alchemist who forged artifacts and concocts rare items and potions that gets the most coins at the end of the day!

It was better than being a blacksmith or a crafter! Plus, he could use all sorts of magic without limit to race and class!

It was the ultimate class! And no one even knows it!

"The first World Boss has been spotted in the Continent of Humans! Reports describe it as a massive blob of green jelly—yes, green jelly! But don't be fooled. This thing is far more dangerous than its harmless appearance suggests!"


"As we speak, top guilds and well-known players are forming teams to challenge the first World Boss! Golden Phoenix, Black Lion, and White Unicorn have all dispatched hundreds of their strongest members to hunt down this giant living catastrophe!


"Among the thousands of groups gathered today, one question rings loud across the entire gaming community: Who will take FIRST BLOOD?"


Every time Ren scrolled through his phone, almost his entire feed was filled with World Boss updates. News clips, livestreams, player reactions, memes, bets, speculations—the whole world was talking about one thing, and one thing alone.


Ren couldn't help it—his shoulders shook as he stifled a laugh.
