Story

The story

Five years after Luna conquered Avaloria and chose to return home, the System delivers impossible news: her best friend Seraphina is dead. Seraphina had stayed behind, bound to the System and in love with the Archmage Kaelen. Luna rides back into the city and finds a single coffin in the snow, holding a body with hacked hair, countless wounds, and one arm cut away.

At Kaelen's tower, red banners fly for his wedding to Lyra. He does not know Seraphina is dead, and Lyra calls her a liar who faked her own death. Seraphina's son Ash clings to Lyra and calls her mother. Luna takes the boy and swears to bury her friend and win her justice.

When Lyra claims she will stop the snow in three days, Luna drags Kaelen to the frozen casket and forces him to look inside.

Opening excerpt

Five years after I'd successfully completed the conquest, the System suddenly pinged.

[The other player, Seraphina, is dead.]

The teacup in my hand slipped, shattering on the floor.

Seraphina was my best friend.

To pull me out of this medieval world, she had voluntarily bound herself to the System, agreeing to help me conquer the two main targets: the Archmage and the Crown Prince.

When we won, I chose to go home.

She, however, had fallen in love with the Archmage. She chose to stay.

That was five years ago.
