In the ancient era of Disboard, Riku, a brave human warrior, devotes his life to protecting humanity from the Exceed, sixteen intelligent races locked in a deadly struggle to become the One True God under the Old Deus. Deprived of magic and burdened by fragile bodies, humans face imminent extinction at the hands of the other Exceed. A glimmer of hope emerges when Riku meets Schwi, a powerful Ex-Machina, within the ruins of an abandoned elf city. Having been cast out from her Cluster for her pursuit of human emotions, Schwi is convinced that understanding these feelings is vital for humanity's survival and is resolved to comprehend the human spirit. Amidst the turmoil, Riku and Schwi forge an unlikely alliance, discovering that their individual weaknesses are complemented by one another as they battle for survival. United, they embark on a journey to reveal the true essence of humanity and avert its annihilation, striving to establish harmony across all of Disboard.
In this installment
In the realm of Disboard, ruled by the supreme deity Tet, sixteen sentient races coexist. Among them, humanity, known as Imanity, stands as the weakest due to their lack of magical powers. In this world, every dispute is resolved through games, leaving humans with seemingly no hope. However, their fate shifts when two strangers suddenly arrive. On Earth, step-siblings Sora and Shiro live as reclusive gaming prodigies known by the alias "Blank." Unbeatable in every online game they encounter, they view life as a tedious pastime until a mysterious message transports them to Disboard. Tet, the sender of the message, outlines the strict laws of this new world before vanishing, forcing Sora and Shiro to navigate their unfamiliar surroundings. They eventually find shelter in Elkia, the last surviving human kingdom. There, they encounter Stephanie Dola, a spirited young woman determined to reclaim the throne she believes is her father's rightful inheritance. Her impulsive nature, however, hinders her success. Recognizing her resolve, Sora and Shiro choose to aid Stephanie in restoring Elkia, with their ultimate ambition being to seize control of this enigmatic world.
