Updated : Sep 17th, 2025
As the match countdown hit zero, Noah's vision glitched again. A deep, bioluminescent blue hue replaced the crisp game interface, tendrils of digital code snaking across his field of view.
[System Notification – External Synchronization Detected]
[New Quest Received - Conquer This Realm!]
[Warning: Unregistered Domain Detected – Initiating Override...]
A rush of cold energy flooded his senses. His breath hitched. This wasn't Elder Genes. This was his system—his real one—breaking into the game.
Then came the next shocker.

'What the actual hell?!'
Noah froze. These were his real stats—not some randomized game numbers. His system was actively hijacking Elder Genes, fusing his real-world power into the virtual space.
[System Prompt – Fusion Detected]
[Would you like to integrate your natural abilities into your avatar?]
[Yes] [No]
His hands clenched. If this was real, if this was actually happening, then choosing 'Yes' would mean hacking the game from the inside out.
And no one—not Kelvin, not the developers, not a single person—would know.
His lips parted, heart pounding.
Kelvin nudged him. "Bro, you good? You're just standing there."
Noah inhaled sharply, forcing a smirk. "Yeah. Just... taking it all in."
Inwardly, his mind already hovered over the option.
And then, with a sharp exhale—he tapped 'Yes.'
System Integration Complete – Shadow Oracle Awakens
The moment Noah accepted the fusion with his mind, a sharp shockwave rippled through his consciousness.
For a split second, the entire game world lagged.
The neon-blue overlay of his system bled into Elder Genes' sleek UI, forcing an instant merger. His mind buzzed as an alert flashed.

A clean punch to the gut—one that should have staggered ViralPsycho.
But instead, the lanky opponent barely moved.
-5 HP
Kelvin's heart sank. Five? That was half the damage ViralPsycho had been dealing to him.
'This bastard's defense is too high.'
ViralPsycho laughed—a distorted, glitching sound.
"That all you got, rookie?"
Kelvin gritted his teeth. The game's system wasn't doing him any favors, and with only Barrier Code, he was at a major disadvantage.
But he wasn't some noob. He'd played countless PvP games, studied meta-strategies, learned how to exploit openings even with weaker builds.
Kelvin feinted left, then dashed right, striking ViralPsycho's side.
-5 HP
Not much, but at least he was landing hits.
ViralPsycho countered, electric fingers crackling, but Kelvin predicted it this time. He threw up Barrier Code just before the strike landed, causing another energy ripple that shoved ViralPsycho back.
'Good. If I can just keep chipping away—'
Suddenly, a loud chime echoed across the arena.
A bar appeared at the top of the screen, flashing red:
[D U A L C O M B O – ACTIVATED]
Kelvin's blood ran cold.
The cylindrical pod on the opposite end of the arena slid open.
A figure shot out.
A blur of red and black, wielding a glowing crimson katana.
"Let's finish this," the newcomer said, his voice calm but deadly.
Ronin.
His gaming tag hovered over his head, flickering ominously.
Kelvin stepped back, fists clenching.
'Two-on-one, huh? Bring it on.'
The 2v1 Begins – Ronin Joins the Fray
Kelvin barely had time to register Ronin's speed before the katana slashed through the air.
He dodged left, narrowly avoiding the red energy blade.
ViralPsycho capitalized, lunging in with a glitching palm strike.
Kelvin barely threw up Barrier Code in time.
-5 HP
The barrier held, but the impact sent him skidding back.
Ronin followed up immediately, his katana flashing in a tight arc.
Kelvin managed to parry with his forearm, but the momentum knocked him back.
He was being pushed into a corner.
ViralPsycho and Ronin weren't just attacking—they were coordinating.
Kelvin's mind raced. 'I need to break their rhythm.'
He feinted a retreat, then suddenly lunged forward, swinging at ViralPsycho's jaw.
-5 HP
Before ViralPsycho could retaliate, Kelvin dropped low, sweeping his legs out from under him.
ViralPsycho crashed to the ground, momentarily stunned.
'Yes! Now I just—'
A warning icon flashed in his HUD.
[Opponent fusion Activated.]
Ronin suddenly vanished from sight.
Kelvin barely had time to react before a voice whispered behind him.
"Void Slash."
A crescent-shaped red energy wave erupted from Ronin's blade, cutting through the air.
At the exact same time, ViralPsycho activated Mind Jack.
Kelvin's controls reversed.
Up became down. Left became right.
His body froze in confusion for half a second—
And then the energy slash slammed into his chest.
-50 HP
His health bar plummeted to 20.
Kelvin staggered, breathing hard.
'Shit... that was bad.'
Inside his pod, Noah clenched his fists.
'Kelvin's getting demolished...'
He glanced at the match screen.
And saw the notification.
[Dr_Havoc wants to tag out]
Noah exhaled slowly.
'Looks like I'm up.'
