Synopsis
VRMMORPGs are what's in nowadays. Everyone seems to want to get a piece of the huge, immersive fantasy worlds that accompany them, as well as the unique skills and abilities that make the player truly feel like they're someone else, someone different, someone more important.
But they require teamwork for important quests. And for someone like Emma, that isn't an option she wants to deal with.
Instead, she's recently become addicted to the PVP battle royale game, Melee of the Ages, and the thrill that accompanies it. A ruthless player who will do anything to win, she aspires to climb the highly competitive ranked ladder of the game and one day become its top player. In order to gain MR (Melee Rating), she has to perform well in more games than she performs poorly. The quickest way up, however, is winning games and being the last man standing.
Though it was originally diagnosed by her psychiatrist as an outlet for her violent impulses, it only makes her worse. Follow Emma as she attempts to overcome the challenges of living with a mental illness, as well as those that she will encounter on her journey to reach the top.
The game she's playing is basically The Hunger Games with magic, skills, and weapons found in tiered chests around preset maps.
And, let's be real, there aren't enough ruthless anti-hero female leads on RRL.
