In a twist that would make any gacha gamer’s blood run cold, Seojin finds himself transported into the game world – not as an overpowered hero or even a player, but as a mere 1-star hero himself! Now, the ultimate underdog, he must not only survive but rise through the ranks. His ultimate goal? To defeat the very player who controls him and his party, essentially defying his own ‘god’.
