As the game's servers prepare to shut down permanently, Momonga logs in one last time to witness its final moments. When the clock strikes midnight, he is not logged out. Instead, he finds himself trapped within the game world, now seemingly real. His skeletal avatar has become his physical body, and the NPCs of his guild have gained sentience and unwavering loyalty.
