Shin and his friends have infiltrated the church headquarters in order to rescue the young Millie, who has been taken captive by a church minister. But unexpected cowardly interference and a reunion with the enemy’s deadliest weapon, High-Class Chosen One Erhyne, put them in a sudden pinch. Shin, the game’s greatest player known as “God of Death”, is filled with thoughts of his ailing comrades as he begins to unleash his rage and dispense his punishment in turn . . .
Sereis Overview: THE NEW GATE, an online game transformed into a life-and-death struggle for its players.
