Description
Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.As one of the first players to gain access to World of Falan—the first immersive game worldwide—Roland creates his character as a Mage.
However, playing as a Mage is not as fun and easy as he thought. His head even explodes after he casts the very first spell in the game.
Stubbornly sticking to his class when most Mages decide to create a new character, Roland gradually discovers tricks of the trade and his unusual talent. This allows him to change people’s stereotypes on Mages and to explore the deeply-buried secrets of this game…

This novel started really well, with the plot being interesting while also having the story being well written with a good pace. I liked the harem as well because at least they had their story developed in a kind of way. But after some time, the novel started becoming crap. The author started focusing on the hypocrisy of c0mm%n¹sm being the ultimate savior of the world, that they're better than the nobles, while living in a fairy tale world with ponies that all government officials call each other "comrades", while in reality they were doing the same as the nobles in the game with the strong oppressing the weak with their money, power and connections (there a lot of people with money, power and territory using their connections to strike someone, but in his eyes they were different from the nobles). But the author tried to hide it by saying that they were doing justice while being inclusive with the bullied, but does not care if there propaganda killed a million people and thousands of elves latter. The novel could have being so much better if the author didn't include politics in a video game, but well... The other disappointing thing is that the author included some characters but destroyed them latter with the silliest reasons. This is just an author that got bored from his novel and destroyed everything just so he doesn't have to write anymore.
In short what people in the story believe to be a virtual reality is in fact a real world, their souls are being projected into this other world in which the goddess of life are giving them living puppets pretty much to move around in, this makes them undying in the way that every time they die they just revert into their soul form and the goddess makes a new puppet for them to inhabit. So the NPC's that the players have been running around killing are them actually killing living people. While a lot of them are portrayed as villians, the players in turn are also from my understanding stealing, raping, killing and so on everywhere in the game every day, with no repercussions since they all think it's a game and their just killing NPC's.
To make some examples fairly early on two players aim to kill a noble family who are killing children to eat their hearts and drink their bloods to stay young. Which is pretty dang evil, however to kill these nobles they in turn killed over two hundred guards hired by these nobles just so they could get at and kill the nobles. Another thing pretty much just mentioned in passing is how the martial arts ppl think the game is great since it lets them use their martial arts and kill ppl everyday to hone their skills, one even bragged to the others about how he could kill people everyday to improve his skills.
So while players or the golden sons as their called are often portrayed as the good guys and said to be neutral - good aligned they are also killing ppl willy nilly after their own whims.
Back to the world settings I don't remember it ever being explained exactly what the point of summoning players into the world and make them believe it was all a game, except the fact that multiple gods and beings with the power of gods were involved in it.
I belive it was to some degree hinted at that the forces of chaos were colluding with some gods to bring chaos and destruction to the world and by sending ppl into the world that believed it all to be a game great destruction could be brought on the world. Beta who is introduced fairly early on is the MC of Noble Emblem and while I haven't read far enough for any mention of this being done. In the game he early on had two female ghosts following him around who he eventually fell in love with and married, in game however I do believe they also followed him into our world, these two are actually, if I remember right, two gods of chaos who are also part of the forces summoning ppl to the DnD world. Noble Emblem setting is that the two of them "kills" Beta so to send him into the DnD world.
This is also the reason why the MC can eventually learn to use magic in real life. Since when a player is summoned they would have two talents, if they could pick two talents that meant they didn't have a special talent of their own. If however they have one locked talent and one they could choose this meant they had a latent talent. In the MC's case he is inherently talented with magic and since their souls are sent over to experience this other world he was actually studying real magic so when he eventually learns enough with him being greatly talented with magic he was able to use magic in our world.
On a side note the best friend of the MC and the cousin of Beta has a talent that makes him extremely charming. This power is somehow so great that by just praying at the church of light the goddess of light falls madly in love with him eventually abandoning the DnD world just to join him in our world. He also get's a dragon and a giant wolf, both of which tries to become gods so they can join him in our world since only gods can cross dimensions, wolf becomes a god but far as I remember dragon was still not a god in Noble Emblem. In short there are a lot of harems in these stories but for some reason all the girls just instantly falls in love with the male players for no reasons outside of their handsome I guess?
In the story the MC's stats are explained as being
Growth Stats
constitution - 5
agility - 5
intelligence - 10
resistance - 6
charm - 5
So with this my guess is that at each lvl up they get these stats added however later on the MC's intelligence is said to be 14.5 at lvl 9 while his paladin buddy at lvl 5 has 16 charm. Which has gotten me confused since it's never really explained in detail. Again my guess here is that every lvl up they get 0.5 stat growth that they can put into any stat. Which would make sense since 4.5 / 9 = 0.5 and in the buddies case he has a special talent that let him get 13 charm at start but then 3 / 5 = 0.6 so either the author is bad at math and just made a mistake with the buddy and should have written 15.5 charm instead. Which wouldn't surprise me since the author seems to make mistakes and forget stuff from time to time.
But yeah this is just an example of how the author has just thrown something out and then never explained how it works outside of the MC is super strong since he starts with 10 int growth stat while every other mage can only get 9 int since magic is too hard.
In short only about 1 in a 100 people can become a professional in this world and the powers are pretty much as you wrote.
Lvl 1-4 normal
Lvl 5-9 Elite
Lvl 10-14 Master
Lvl 15-19 Legend
Lvl 20 Demigod - God
On the different lvls pretty much most people are either normal - elite, masters are fairly rare and this is when people start to see a power spike, Legends are very rare and at this rank professionals usually get some kind of special power/trait that will enable them to fight an army of professionals on their own.
Demigods and gods are a bit special on their own since the only real difference between them is wether they have a divinity or not. They are in a league of their own, though a bunch of legends can threaten them. Strength wise a demigod is usually as strong as a gods physical form but a god is able to gather faith and turn it into power, usually faith works as a power bank so they have a ton more of mp, stamina and so on, there is also the fact that gods can live for thousands upon thousands of years and in theory live on forever as long as they have followers to provide them faith. They are also able to construct their own realm/base in the divine realm and create clones/followers. There are however restrictions on them since they have become a part of the natural laws.
Demigods on the other hand has close to the same strength of a god but can't gather faith or wield all the special powers or privileges of a god they also have a much shorter livespan usually around a thousand years to a few thousands depending on their species, they are however not bound to the natural laws like the gods.
To get a divinity and become a god there are a two different ways, some gods are just naturally born from the laws and peoples faith. However once a divinity from a law is created that will be the only divinity of that law. So for instance in Mystras case she was a demigod of magic but because there was no god of magic she was able to gather the laws of magic and create a divnity of magic then after absorbing the divinity she became the goddess of magic. But now no one else that become the god of magic unless they kill Mystra and steal the divinity. In short either create a divnity from a law that doesn't have a divinity/god yet or kill a god and steal their divinity.
Thats is pretty much the power ranking, if looking at the strength then it's pretty much.
Normal is well normal, an elite can usually beat 5-10 normal professionals, a master can often beat 50-100 normal or 10+ elites.
While a legend can beat hundreds - thousands of normal/elite and depending on the type of legends no matter how many normal/elite you gather they might not be able to fight (for instance fighting a legendary dragon normal/elite professional might be paralyzed with fear and unable to do anything so it doesn't matter how many you gather) so the only way to win is to gather a bunch of masters.
When it comes to demigods and gods in their physical form anything below legends are usually not even worth mentioning since they might not be able to even hurt them you'd probably need 50-100 legends to face them, though of course some super strong legends like an MC might be able to face them.
