Riko awoke in total darkness. But this wasn't the real world. He stood in the center of a grand hall surrounded by obsidian pillars, with blue flames flickering atop each torch.
As he raised his hand, his body was enveloped in golden armor radiating a pulsating black aura. A crown hovered above his head, and in his grasp was a colossal sword, more magnificent than any weapon he'd ever seen.

Before him, Thaz knelt, radiating deep reverence.
"Abyss King, I, Thaz, your strongest subordinate, am at your service."
Riko—now known as the Abyss Master—stared at Thaz. Though he didn't fully understand his situation, his instincts told him he now held unparalleled power. Suddenly, a system notification appeared:
System Notification:Other players have entered The Abyss of End. Will you let them live?
A smile crept across Riko's face. He now controlled the world that had once defeated him. Beneath that smile lay a desire to exact vengeance on the outside world that had once made him weak.
"Thaz, prepare our forces. Let's show them the true meaning of hell."
Thaz nodded. A dark aura engulfed the room as Riko, the Abyss Master, prepared to reveal his true might.
