Inside a perfectly round command room built from simulated Ge-plasma material, several aliens sat casually around a glowing holographic table.
Their bodies were far from normal—twisted forms with extra limbs, floating heads, pulsating cores.
But despite their bizarre appearances, they were just players inside The Singularity, the most ambitious VRMMO of the 22nd century.
"So, LickmaD, got any plans after the servers go down?"
The question came from a three-headed alien with four arms. His ID floated above: MilfLoverz.
"Maybe I'll focus on work... or find a new game if I have time," replied LickmaD, a tall figure with a head that floated slightly above his neck.
"By the way, where's Shiin? Haven't seen him around."
LickmaD shrugged. "Said he was 'preparing something fun' for the final server shutdown."
CRACK!
The empty space behind them shattered like glass. A humanoid figure stepped out, clad in sleek midnight armor with a glowing star emblem on his chest. A floating spherical drone followed behind, its blue core pulsing with light.
Shiin Avalon.
"Were you looking for me?"
"Weren't we supposed to have a farewell party on Glise-12b?"
"Go ahead without me. I've got my own plans. Apolo, initiate Ragnarok Protocol."
Suddenly, the name above his avatar changed: [Game Master].
In seconds, every remaining online player was forcibly dragged into a single server—Glise-12b.
The system began to scream.
Lag spiked.
Bugged code and glitches crackled in the virtual sky.
"He's... trying to create a Supernova?" MilfLoverz whispered in horror.
"Of course he is," said LickmaD with a calm voice. "That's just so Shiin."
"Shit! That lunatic's trying to blow us all up!"
MilfLoverz shouted, snapping the other players out of their confusion.

10 Minutes Before Server Shutdown
I sat in the cockpit of my personal mothership.
Left hand gripping the gravity throttle.
Right hand typing the final lines of a virus directly into the server's data structure.
You think you can just abandon us for a flashy gacha game?
All our achievements... all the priceless moments... erased like they meant nothing?
I won't let this game die quietly.
60 seconds...
"Apolo, maximum neutron fusion."
A black hole formed at the center of the star system.
58 seconds...
"Reinforce spatial shields to max."
57... 56... 55...
A white void. Distortion. HUD flickering.
Is this the end of my body? Or...
54 seconds...
One world ends.
Another... begins.
