Revive Rome: Wait! Why not make the empress fall in love with me first?-Chapter 3: Prologue: Transmigration and Mission Background
Chapter 3: Prologue: Transmigration and Mission Background
Standing on the bustling streets of Constantinople, he began to space out.
Could I have actually traveled through time, or am I trapped inside the game, unable to get out?
"Solomon: Song of Iron and Fire" is a globally popular fantasy RPG holographic online sports game, and he was a professional esports player of this game who inexplicably found himself here.
This world was almost identical to the game world of "Iron and Fire."
The only difference was that there were no players in this world.

Without players, the facilities related to them naturally disappeared as well, such as the login area, the safe zone, and the respawn area.
Which meant that if he died in this world...
He might truly be dead.
His NPC body was named Aske Lepeios Achilles and was a noble NPC in the Imperial City of Constantinople, with a career as a high school history teacher at a local noble academy.
Thanks to a hefty inheritance from his ancestors, his family was very wealthy, a genuine rich second generation.
Later, he was hypnotized by a Vampire woman, lost his normal sanity. In just a few short months, his parents were murdered, his property seized, and the dozens of people in his house, including butlers, maids, and manservants, were all turned into vampires.
Only he was left alive, day after day providing blood for the house full of vampires to drink. If not for the original owner's body being robust, he would probably have died a long time ago.
One night, the Vampire mistress decided to expand her hunting range, so she sent a maid to transform their next-door neighbor.
The neighbors were a family of three: husband, wife, and daughter living alone. When the maid Vampire was giving the daughter her Initial Embrace, something went wrong, waking the Family Head, who started screaming. In a panic, she killed both parents and fled the scene after setting fire to the place.
The fire was quickly extinguished by Constantinople's fire brigade, and the angry Vampire mistress killed the maid because the blaze had nearly spread to their own residence.
However, what nobody knew was that the neighbor's little girl, Peggy, had already been turned into a Vampire and therefore was not completely burned to death.
She crawled out of the cemetery on the night she was buried and wandered the streets for several days before coming across a player, to whom she then issued a Revenge quest.
The quest recipient was a Player Guild member, who immediately reported it to his guild.
The Guild higher-ups' Analysis was that the matter should be first reported to the Church, so they could use the Church's power to kill the Vampire, and also get benefits and prestige from the Church.
Thus, the Church quickly dispatched a team of Iron-armored Holy Knights, who teamed up with the Player Guild members and exterminated the entire Vampire family.
Only Aske, as an ordinary human bewitched, was spared from being slaughtered by the Church and the players during the operation.
After completing the mission, the Church sold Aske's estate to the Player Guild as a reward for reporting the Vampire incident. This guild thus became the first to own a base in Constantinople, attracting a large number of players to join.
Once the entire quest process was posted on the forum, it caused a sensation among the server's players and worship. For a time, countless guilds in Constantinople were searching for traces of Vampire, werewolf, and Witch NPCs.
And Aske, the poor NPC, tragically lost all his property and relatives, and was reduced to a beggar on the streets. Every day, he was harassed by countless players who would probe him, asking:
"Do you know any other Vampires?"
"Didn't your wife have any brothers or sisters?"
"You're a Vampire too, aren't you?"
Eventually, this NPC, constantly heartbroken, went completely insane and was killed in an accidental gang conflict on the streets.
Although the quest storyline developed like this in his past life, it certainly wouldn't unfold the same way now.
Because there were no players in this world, Peggy's quest would not be taken up by anyone, and the Church wouldn't detect the presence of the Vampires for a while.
More importantly, as an esports player with professional skills and knowledge of the quest storyline, he certainly wouldn't just sit idly by and wait for death.
