The Earth got conquered. However, instead of its population decreasing by ninety percent, Empire offered humanity an opportunity to join them as a vassal species.

They gave every person 500 000 USD worth of credits. Told them that all their old currencies were worthless and all debts were nullified. On top of that, they informed humanity that the person who could earn the most credits in the next five years would become the Earth's new ruler.

However, all wasn't just positive, like with all occupations, it brought with it its own set of problems.

So naturally, after the Earth joined the Empire, everyone was looking for ways to earn more credits. And Tom might have just found it. A VR game called Secverse.

When Tom enters the Secverse, he starts to uncover how much more there was to the universe. A completely new set of rules and energies that had stayed hidden from humanity.

After he witnessed what they could do, he wanted. No, needed to harness their power for himself.

The only problem was that he had no idea what he was doing.
