Marcus was a rising star in finance, until his boss's petty revenge left him fired, and near broke. The woman he loved was gone. His future was a joke, his life adrift, and with nothing left to lose 

His only way out was Dominion, the world's first true VRMMO, a game that promises to become humanity's second world, where in-game gold translates to real-world wealth. For Marcus, it wasn't a game; it was a desperate last chance to rebuild his life and support his sister.

But on the day of character creation, the system glitched.

While other players were assigned random stats, Marcus was given the impossible: Maxed-Out Base Attributes and a legendary, unchangeable Luck stat of 20.

The system tried to fix him. It failed.

Now, Marcus doesn't play the game. He exploits it. Armed with a broken skill that reveals every secret and a drop rate that makes him instantly rich, he is the statistical anomaly the developers never accounted for.

As Zion departed, FreshwindFreshwindElara looked down at the ring he had given her, her eyes wide. "Stone… this is a Mythic Artifact."


The ring seemed to drink the sunlight, its dark metal set with a gem that flickered with a deep, inner fire. It felt warm against her skin, like a dormant power churning just beneath the surface.


"You're kidding. Let me see the stats."


Ring of Resurrection: Black Mythic Artifact. Forged in the celestial fire of a Phoenix, this ring holds a spark of the divine beast's legendary power of rebirth.


Skill: Resurrection. Upon death, the wearer is instantly revived with no experience or item loss. Restores full Health and Mana and grants three seconds of invulnerability. Limited to one use per day.
