Seymour was an utterly ordinary little unlucky guy.
Abandoned at birth, he spent his childhood being bullied. He finally earned his place at a magic academy through hard work, only to be shunned and insulted by his classmates over a misunderstanding.
It seemed he was always headed for failure.

Then one day, Seymour miraculously came back from the dead after an accident and suddenly found that he could see a virtual interface. That was when he finally realized he was living in a game world.

"Want to experience the most realistic adventure in another world? Want to travel alongside cool characters?"
"Aloof saint, dashing knight, beautiful elf. Take your pick from a whole cast of handsome men and beautiful women!"

Reading the game's slogans, Seymour smiled.
If his miserable fate was nothing more than a backdrop to make other characters shine, and if all it took to win favor was playing a popular character well,
then no one could blame him for stopping at nothing to reclaim what was rightfully his.
