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.

Marcus's corpse was instantly engulfed in a massive blaze of crimson flames. Within the roaring fire, the Phoenix's unique divine-grade skill took effect, and his lifeless body was restored to life.


The system notification appeared almost immediately.


[Congratulations, Stonehaven. You have been revived by Princess Phoenix's Divine Beast, Phoenix, using Phoenix Rebirth. Under this divine-grade resurrection skill, you lose no experience. All stats and skills have been fully restored. For two hours after revival, all stats are increased by 15%.]


'Damn.' That was an insanely powerful resurrection skill. The two princesses had already blown Marcus's mind more times than he could count, and this was just another reminder of how extraordinary they were.
