"So evolution is complete."
Aariv look around and saw that the sun was up, he then shook his head. "Those were my memories." He mutter. "Why did I remember more of my memories?

"So evolving put you back at Lv. 1" Aariv muses. "[Mana] is unlocked? Is this because hypno owls require mana to hypnosis?" He then decides to check his skills.

"So skills like [Stealth] and [Hypnosis] require [SP] and [Mana], while passive skills don't," Aariv said, he then narrows his eyes. "But what does it mean by manifesting will? I can't test this since it cost 200 [Mana], but I can test hypnosis but not before assigning my stat points." Aariv put 14 into [Wisdom], 4 in [Endurance], 2 in [Strength], and the rest in [Agility].

"Nothing had changed with the description but maybe the time for it to activate is shorter," Aariv said. To test this he captures another horned rabbit and uses [Hypnosis] on it taking less time for the rabbit to be hypnotized, taking a minute. "So it's true."

Five years have gone by since Michael last opened Lunar Masquerade, an MMORPG where you don’t choose a class, a calling chooses you. Yet, here he is, awake inside the game, naked in a circle of arcane symbols. Summoned. But, when he finds that the one to summon him is no other than his fiancée’s character, Selrah, it soon dawns on him that they may have left the game, but the game continued without them. No longer Michael, but Mythril, and a few quests and a raid later, he is on the run. His summoning no accident, he must flee the very person he thought he could rely upon, not to mention an ego-maniac of a guild leader, and a forlorn ostrich named Audreg. His calling changing to one thought only of legend, his companions a womanizing bard and a noxiri too fond of daggers, Mythril must regain his strength and reach the Feylands, before another calls upon the ancients leading the world into destruction once again.
