Karl's body reformed in the real world right after leaving [Gods Ascension].
The sudden shift from the game to reality always felt strange, even after getting used to it, and the moment he opened his eyes, he realized the sun was already up.
He had spent around ten hours inside the game, which explained why it was now bright outside.
As always, [Gods Ascension] was packed during the morning and afternoon.
That was when the majority of players chose to enter, and it made perfect sense.
The world they lived in now ran entirely on [Lives], and the only real method to gain more was to grow stronger inside the game.
Anyone who refused to enter [Gods Ascension] was a rarity.
People like that barely existed anymore, because refusing to progress was the same as willingly throwing away their future.
Karl knew that better than anyone.
In fact, the only reason he had been able to survive at all before was by doing odd jobs in exchange for food.
