In this world, there are those that are fortunate and those who are not. Ethan Bellrose is neither; he is cursed.

However, the arrival of a world-changing digital service catches the hopeless young man’s eye: “Reincarnation Online”--a virtual reality experience that gives a new fantastical life to those who are unfulfilled with their current path.
