Reclusive Master

The rain had been falling on Moonveil City since dawn, running in silver threads down the tiled roofs, spilling from gutters into the crooked alleys. The sky was low and iron-grey, heavy enough to press against the tower-tops of the Martial Regulation Bureau. Inside the courtyard of the Moonveil District Arms Hall, Kael Ruan stood in silence, a new-issued badge in his hand. He was twenty-four, too young, too brash, they’d said, yet here he was, sworn as the youngest Arms Keeper in the city’s history. His mentor, Master Renji, watched from the covered steps, eyes narrowed as if weighing more than just the rain. [Silent Oath System Activated] Oath Energy: 0/100 Core Blade Slots: Shadowsteel (Locked), Frostvein (Locked), Dawnpiercer (Locked) Techniques: Oath Cut (Locked), Sword Recall (Locked) The voice cold, ringing inside his skull had woken with his oath to defend the district. It spoke without warmth, without mercy. It offered strength in exchange for vows sworn before witnesses. But the warning was clear: break an oath, and the System would take more than power from him.

When the sky over London cracks open and the moon begins to bleed light, four friends find themselves trapped in a city that’s no longer human. The world has been reclassified — not as Earth, but as a Dungeon Territory, and every living thing inside it has been registered for survival or extinction. Riley, a quiet historian with a talent for seeing patterns, becomes the first Lunamancer, his power waxing and waning with the moon. Miko, sharp-tongued and fearless, manifests the instincts of a Swordswoman whose blade remembers every kill. Amber, calm and analytical, turns healer and protector through the conviction of a Paladin. And Arianna, whose empathy once made her fragile, bonds with her mutated dog and becomes a Beast Master — her strength now tied to the creatures she commands. Together they navigate a city collapsing into nightmare: streets carpeted with dead birds, rivers running red, and monsters evolving faster than reason. Every fight earns experience. Every kill rewrites the rules. Every sunrise weakens Riley’s power — and every moonrise brings something new from the fracture above. But survival isn’t enough. The System is watching, counting, and adapting. And somewhere beyond the broken skyline, the first dungeon floor is waiting.

Allsium takes virtual reality to the ultimate level. It is not a social network, nor a massively multiplayer online video game, but an experience as real as life itself. In Allsium pain and pleasure feels as if it were real, so leaving the safety of virtual Earth is a price few are willing to pay. Those who do so will travel to the so-called illegal worlds, dangerous planets that pay homage to the golden age of video games and cinema, where they can obtain unimaginable powers: abilities that exceed human limits and magics that can be developed by choosing a path. However, the bravest adventurers must be very careful, as losing their lives in Allsium will make it impossible to access again, so they will no longer benefit from the system in a real world that is still recovering from the disasters of World War III. Gunner has formed a virtual group together with Greek, Dagon and Zen. After long and painstaking preparation, they decide to travel to the outlaw worlds of Allsium in search of the power offered by the trails. These can lead them to master incredible abilities and, incidentally, to take revenge on a society that has turned them into outcasts. But this will only be possible if they manage to take advantage of the Allsionist plan: the creation of a breach in the system that connects virtuality with reality. Evolution takes the final step. Welcome to Allsium.
