In the future timeline, Humankind had developed things that brought a revolution to the world. But their best invention was fully immersive VR games that became more and more advanced as time passed. They could create new worlds— in virtual reality, that were more beautiful and profound than the real world they lived in.Upon seeing how Humankind started discarding the world created by the gods and embracing the fake world created by humans, gods were enraged.Thus, gods transported the souls of all the VR game players into the game created by gods—called Gods' impact, which was unlike any VR game. It was too surreal with daily struggles, quests, systems, monsters, and... more deadly and cruel than the real world.However, they could use their real-life skills and talents in the game.

But don't forget that the sole purpose of this game was for gods to screw over humans in every way possible.
