In a mysterious void, a lady appeared in the scarlet red armor with red crown on her head. She looked around, in confusion, when a humanoid figure manifested from the void.

"Who are you?" she asked cautiously, while bringing her hand to sword.

"Do you want a second chance?" ignoring her question, it asked. She asked her question once again, just like before, it does the same. After several round of questioning, she surrendered and nodded in affirmation.

Getting the answer, it told her all the terms and condition about her second chance. In her last life, she was empress, who was betrayed by her subordinate, before dying miserably.

All those memories refreshed. In her second life, she decided to become stronger, but reality is vastly different from what she expected. She become an NPC in the haven, a commoner. Slowly getting used to new life, she joined the Maid & Butler Association, for livelihood. With the money she got, she joined the assassin tower, which she could afford, without much compromising.

Later on, one night she got kidnapped, when she was hunting inside the forest. People looked around it, for long time, but failed. She is experimented for long time, when the dark mage tried to change her race to that of dragon, using dragon essence.

Currently in the forest, Rishabh is standing in front of the lady who is covered in black and red mist. As the mist got denser, he receives notification:

[Emergency Quest: Stall the Lady in front of you for 30 minutes. Reward: On completion. Punishment: Forbidden to enter the dreamland for 10 days.]

"What the…", before he could even complete his sentence, he felt a power punch in his stomach, throwing him several meters away. Before he could even stand up, a kick kissed his face.

*BOOM*

He collided with a stone, shattering it completely, while he puked some blood. Instantly he threw the punch in front of him, collided by the aggressor punch pushing both of them backward.

Wiping the blood from his face, he readied itself. The time slowed down, he dodge the punch and kicked her while circling himself. Without giving her chance, he dashed towards her, and fight started.

Looking at the fight through stream, everyone got shocked, as there eyes couldn't even keep up with it. Many pro gamers, as well as technical experts, noticed this abnormality, which isn't achievable through the current technologies. Some of the corporate houses, immediately assigned someone for investigation.

Dammit, you really manage to push me hard, he said, looking at his bleeding hand which have several cut, and are healing rapidly. Meanwhile in front of her, the lady has the twin daggers, manifested from the mist, while she is using various spells too.

Taking out his sword, Rishabh dashed towards her. She swung her hand, to block the sword, which is moving towards her neck. As soon as it reached dagger, surprisingly it shrunk in size, and enlarged after passing through it.

She immediately took several steps back, but still have cut on her neck, however a swallow one.

*Roar* a dragon roar sounded from her, before scales appeared, along with a dragon horn on her forehead. While they were fighting, a magic circle started to appear around them.

Looking at it, from the city, everyone is in shock. City lord, and other experts immediately dashed towards it, only to be blocked by a barrier. Both Rishabh and the lady chose to use all the power they for one final attack, but it got blocked by the formation, before Rishabh got kicked out of game.

Inside the Rishabh's bedroom. He woke up, next day. Looking at his hand, the fight from last night surfaced on its own. It become trendy news on the media, while everyone started to ask question regarding the company and technology behind the game.

"It seems, I become too arrogant after founding everything easy in the current life", Rishabh muttered looking at his reflection, and continued, "I need to train hard, and for that, I think I have manage to best training partner."

After getting ready, he entered in Dreamland.

Looking at all the options, especially the last one, he don't know what to say. After thinking for sometimes, he chose to go for the first option. As soon as he agreed to it, a contract appeared before him. After dropping his blood, the contract got completed.
