Benedict Blue

Maximus “Max” is the school’s punching bag — mocked by classmates, used for gaming ranks, and abandoned by the world. With no family left, his only escape is a virtual game where he dominates silently as the mysterious Level 99 legend. But when two of his in-game allies — a sarcastic grim reaper and a sassy blue system — suddenly manifest in real life, Max’s world flips upside down. Offered a chance to gain real power through bizarre quests and soul links with legendary heroes, Max hesitantly accepts… only to find himself thrown into a war of secret councils, deadly school factions, and quests with outrageous risks — and even more outrageous rewards. From surviving cafeteria ambushes to unlocking skills mid-beatdown, Max is forced to grow from the weakest kid in school to a rising legend. But every power has a price, and some scars go deeper than stats can fix. This isn’t just a game anymore. It’s his second chance.
