Interstellar + Gaming + Strong Female Lead + Esports + Teamwork + Comeback
Oh no, the plan has changed. The next goal is to win the championship!
The yellow sands of Graystone Star swirl with despair. Eighteen-year-old Xin Xing clutches a diagnosis stating that her foster brother's pneumoconiosis is nearing its final stage. Only an outrageously expensive operation on the Central Star can save him.
With nowhere else to turn, she stumbles upon the immersive consciousness game Depths of Peril. She never knew until she tried it: could she actually be a gaming prodigy?
So she starts making money by boosting accounts.
She's so dedicated that before she knows it, she's made it into the top hundred on the server, a rank said to match professional players.
Now esports clubs are coming out of the woodwork to recruit her.
But Xin Xing turns them all down and instead forms a team with the teammates she met in the game.
A handful of young nobodies barely out of their teens think they'll give it a try. They never expected to fight their way into the top tournament.
After making it this far, wouldn't it be a shame not to win the championship?
Just when she finally earns enough money to get her brother treated, she goes to the hospital and discovers she's the heiress of the Xin family on the Central Star?
Well, would you look at that. It's not just the game that's a perilous place. Her real life is just as rough!
Still, she's never lacked the courage to face hardship.
She's going to make her life just as exciting as the game!
Maybe that's the magic of games: a tribute to those of us who may be small, but are anything but ordinary.
