Chapter 1 Prologue

On January 1st, 2019, the world changed

Gates,up from nowhere

Those who protect and those who invade

These ters fought all over the world

1 year, 2 years, 3 years5 years

On Novee from the system

[Frost Queen, the final boss for the area Earth, has appeared]

[Upon her defeat, safe zones will be added]

‘The final boss! If we just defeat her, we can go back to our normal lives!’

Countless players were filled with newfound determination, and their hope was rekindled

One day

That was how long it took for hope to become despair

On the day that the Frost Queen walked out of the gate, the southern Pacific froze over with a flick of her wrist Everyone’s deter with it

There were only five people who remained undeterred

These top players took a plane to Antarctica

“Let’s catch that Frost Queen”

All for the sake of what others thought was ieon, Antarctica

The Queen’s Nest, 2nd floor

The five players stood in front of the stairs leading to the next floor A o up the stairs]

“Are you fucking kiddingall this way?” Aas he swore

“Doesn’t that mean that the other four will die here?

From the moment they entered the Nest, they were chased by the Frost Queen’s breath They had to keep cli frozen by the poisonous breath In other words, if only one person could ascend, then the re four would freeze to death

“ There are only two minutes left until the breath catches up We have to e Skaya said as she looked to the others

“I think Specter should go He has the best chance of killing the Frost Queen”

“I could kill her too”

“And ould win in a fight between you two?

“Tsk Touche” The iant raised his hands in surrender

The reeainst the Frost Queen aren’t too great”

“That’s true”

He was right Rahth, but that wouldn’t be a match for the Frost Queen If she did as much as breathe or raise her hand, the entire area around her would freeze

It was the sa japan She and Skaya already had their hands full guarding against the Frost Queen’s approach from the rear

“Then it’s settled”

The four of them turned to look at Specter He wore a black ret this?” A dry voice spoke froed at his question “Regret? We probably will A whole fucking lot But what can we do? You have the best chance of succeeding”

“Alright Then, I’ll kill her before her breath reaches you”

“No way That’s impossible” Tenmei Mio shook her head “Please don’t rush because of us Lie in wait until you’re sure you can kill her”

“Mio’s right It’s impossible to kill her in two ive her the upper hand” Rahmadat and Skaya chimed in

“You hear that? Don’t be impatient, and kill her properly That is what you have to do as the one ill go up”

“I don’t know about the rest of us, but you can definitely do it”

Specter looked at his faithful teammates If he was the one that was left behind, could he cheer them on so casually?

“”

He couldn’t Biting his lip under his ain I prohed and waved hi

With that e multiple steps at a time He didn’t look back; he didn’t even have time for that

Crash!+

Even when the stair crumbled behind him and he couldn’t hear his comrades’ voices anymore, his eyes remained fixed at the top of the stairs

At that moment, he reached the top…

“So you’ve come to seek your death”

[Frost Queen, the final boss for the area Earth, has appeared]

[Upon her defeat, safe zones will be added]

The Frost Queen sat on a frozen throne in the ant and aloof

But Specter wasn’t fooled by her alluring appearance The aura that she radiated threatened to freeze everything around her

shi+ng!

The sound of the weapon being drawn seemed to lower the temperature Specter spoke in a flat voice “Five years” That’s how long it had been since the world changed into soame “Let’s end this”

“End… this?” The Frost Queen burst out in laughter, covering her lips with her slender fingers “Ahahaha! You really don’t know anything about this world”

“I’s?” questioned Seo Jun-Ho

Woooong!

Darkness surged around him, and the ice started to turn dark The best player in the world, Specter Seo Jun-Ho, opened his mouth “All I need to confira a massive explosion

“Haa, haa…” At the end of a long battle, the Frost Queen let out a violent cough Her coe of her lips “I had fun”

“I didn’t”With a sullen voice, an exhausted Seo Jun-Ho swung his broken sith as much force as he could muster
