One day, Sol woke up to find himself on an entirely different planet, a fantasy world brimming with magic, strange monsters and mysteries. His surroundings didn't match anything he recognized. Instead of the familiar comfort of his bedroom, he was lying on hard ground, with the scent of hay and earth in the air.
Above, the sky above was a vibrant blue, and the sun blazed down on a rolling landscape dotted with rustic buildings and pastures. As his mind slowly cleared, the realization hit him: he had somehow been transported to a completely new world—a fantasy-like world unlike anything he'd ever seen. Well, maybe. He wasn't entirely sure yet, it was simply only a guess.
Without wasting any time, he got up slowly and glanced around, and that was when his eyes locked onto something that made him catch his breath. And that was lying next to him, completely unaware of anything, was his Level 9999 video game character, the very same one he'd been playing earlier in the massively popular MMORPG game called "Blurion Online."
And this wasn't just some figment of his imagination. This Level 9999 high-level martial warrior, clad in powerful armor, was lying peacefully beside him, like nothing was out of the ordinary. But for Sol, it felt like something straight out of a fantasy dream—too good to be true or even real.
"Holy shit!!! W-What the fuck is this?!! Just what the hell is going on here?!!" he yelled, panic and confusion twisting his voice. "And why the hell is this Level 9999 video game character even here with me?!!"
MOO! MOO! MOO!
Then, out of nowhere, he heard the faint mooing of cows in the distance. That's when he realized he was surrounded by the sounds and smells of a cow farm. Actually, this area he was in just happened to be dedicated to cows, while other areas of the farm were home to chickens and various other animals.
But that wasn't the main concern right now—what truly mattered was that the video game character he had been playing as just earlier in Blurion Online—a Level 9999 warrior, the highest level a player could achieve—was now here, seemingly sleeping soundly beside him.
"W-Wait a second… this can't be real…" Sol muttered in disbelief. He reached out, pinching himself hard. The sharp pain that followed told him that this wasn't some crazy dream. "You have got to be kidding me… are you seriously telling me that this whole thing is not a mere dream?!" His voice cracked with panic as his eyes widened in realization.
"Holy shit! I can't believe this!"
His mind swirled with confusion, struggling to process what had just happened. Why was his video game character here, in the flesh? Was this some kind of bizarre glitch, or something even crazier? None of it made any sense to him.
"Fuck! What the hell is going on here?!" Sol shouted, panic rising in his voice. "Am I trapped inside a game world or what?! Or did I just get isekai and end up in another world?! Dammit! Which is it?!"
For a moment, his heart pounded in his chest as he tried to make sense of his surroundings, desperately searching for some kind of answer. But nothing made sense. There was just him here and his high-level character next to him in this unfamiliar world that seemed far too real to be anything but reality.
Then, out of nowhere, a system notification suddenly popped up right in front of his face:
Ding!
[Hello, Player! Welcome to the World of Saga!]
"Aaaaghhh!" Sol jumped back in fright, shocked to see a hologram screen suddenly appear in front of him out of thin air. "No way! A-A system?!"
Before he could react, the hologram screen suddenly changed, revealing his status window this time.

'Huh? Character Summon? That's weird... since when did I gain a skill like that?' Sol thought, puzzled about where it came from.
Ding!
[All Beginner Players are automatically granted one random skill! If you're a gamer, you can think of it as your beginner's "Starter Pack" — an essential gift to kickstart your journey or adventure!]
'I see, so that's how it works... Well, I guess that explains how I was able to attain a skill like this.'
[Additional Tip! You've been asleep in this Beginner Farmhouse for an entire year! Everyone else has already left you behind!]
'What?! I've been asleep for a whole year?! What the hell does that mean?!' he thought, more confused than ever. 'And everyone has already left me behind? Wait… this doesn't make sense. I mean, who the hell is 'everyone,' anyway?'
Unfortunately, the more he tried to make sense of what the system meant, the more confused he became.
After a while, he gave up on trying to figure things out. With that said, the most important thing now was to survive and explore this world first. After all, he believed that with enough time, he would eventually figure out what the hell was going on.
It was at this moment, Beros, the level 9999 video game character, suddenly woke up. His mind was clouded with confusion as he tried to make sense of his surroundings. He had no idea where he was nor what was even happening.
And the last thing Beros remembered was that he was fighting a level 9999 Sky Dragon Boss not too long ago, a battle that had pushed him to the limit of his power. But after that, everything went blank. He couldn't recall anything that happened after that fight.
Now, as Beros slowly opened his eyes, he found himself in an unfamiliar place—a simple farmhouse, nothing like the grand battles or vast landscapes he was used to. It was a strange, unsettling shift, and he couldn't help but wonder how he ended up here.
"Ugh, what's going on…? Where the hell am I…?" Beros muttered to himself, still feeling disoriented.
"Oh, you're finally awake! Good! Now, let's introduce ourselves first, shall we?" Sol said with a grin.
Ignoring what Sol said, Beros looked down on the ground and muttered to himself, "No… this can't be possible…! T-The voice is gone! Agh! I don't know what to do anymore! I can't believe the voice in my head is gone! Ahh!!! Noooooooooo!!!"
'Huh?! What the fuck is wrong with this guy all of a sudden?! And what does he mean by the voice in his head is gone?' Sol thought, confused by Beros's panicked reaction.
Ding!
