Leadale no Daichi nite

## Fandom

***Leadale no Daichi nite*** (リアデイルの大地にて, *In the Land of Leadale / World of Leadale*) is a Japanese light novel series written by Ceez and illustrated by Tenmaso. It was serialized online between November 2010 and December 2012 on the user-generated novel publishing website Shōsetsuka ni Narō. It was later acquired by Enterbrain, who have published eight volumes since January 2019 under their Famitsu Bunko imprint.

A manga adaptation with art by Dashio Tsukimi and composition by Ryō Suzukaze has been serialized online via ASCII Media Works' *Dengeki PlayStation Comic Web* website since July 2019 and has been collected in three *tankōbon* volumes. Both the light novel and manga are licensed in North America by Yen Press. An anime television series adaptation by Maho Film aired from January to March 2022.

## Synopsis

In Japan, a VR-accessed multi-player online fantasy role-playing game named *Leadale*, which offers a very liberal customization system, has become immensely popular in recent years. A young girl named Keina Kagami, rendered permanently paralyzed and on constant life support, uses this game from her hospital bed to interact with the rest of the world. When she unexpectedly dies after her life support shuts down during a power outage, she finds herself reborn into the game world of Leadale, in the body of her personal avatar Cayna. To her surprise, she also finds out that 200 years have passed in Leadale since she last logged into the game, a period in which the seven nations she knew were devastated by war and re-organized into three new kingdoms.

As Cayna begins making her way in this new world and meeting the three NPC children she had adopted in the game, she finds out that her death ruined *Leadale's* reputation, causing the game's shutdown. However, several other players ended up trapped inside the game as well, some of them for years, and the kingdoms of Felskeilo, Helshper and Otaloquess are increasingly plagued by attacks from high-level monsters, all stemming from *Leadale's* abrupt cancellation, which made them go rogue inside this world. What's more, one of the trapped players - a powerful one - seems to have set his sights on Cayna herself as his future bride.

### English VA:

Huynh, Xanthe

Formerly a young lady from a wealthy family, she lost her parents in a serious accident and became paralyzed herself, unable to move or eat on her own, and forced to live without life support. In her spare time, she begins playing the VRMMORPG "*Leadale*". She created a high elf avatar named "*Cayna*," and thanks to an auxiliary AI key (Kee-chan), she can play without any problems even if she cannot move her body.

She soon became one of the top players at level. 1100, surpassing the limit of lvl. 1000, and became the third Skill Master in the history of the game. She is also known as the "*Silver Ring Witch*" (a nickname she hates very much). While she was beginning to feel the burden of taking care of her uncle and cousin, she died (at the age of 17) when a power outage caused her life support system to shut down on the same day she fell asleep while playing. She was then reincarnated as Cayna into the world of Leadale 200 years later.

At first she thinks it is still a game world, but she is puzzled by the fact that she cannot log out, etc. She is shocked to learn from Kee-chan that she died in reality due to the power outage. After getting back on her feet, she discovers the silver tower (the tower of the guardian of Cayna), visits the tower, and although the guardian of the tower (the NPC who manages the tower) is angry with her for having left her alone for 200 years, she restores the tower, which had stopped functioning, by activating it. She then sets out on a journey to activate other guardians' towers at the request of the guardians.

Although she is a high elf, she has the appearance of a girl, and has three children: Skargo, the elven eldest son, Mai Mai, the elven eldest daughter, and Kartatz, the second son (adopted) of the dwarves, through the "*foster child system*," one of the game systems. Mai Mai is married and has grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She has a house in a remote village where she was taken care of at the time of her reincarnation, and lives there with her children during normal times.

* She is often treated as if she were a high school student by anime viewers because of his childish personality and attitude.
* However, since she has been bedridden for many years and has had little interaction with others outside of games, her childishness is somewhat unavoidable (moreover, what she does has not changed much in the original work or the manga version (especially the latter), so it cannot be said that "her personality was changed in the anime").
* On the other hand, she is depressed because she has taken someone's life, even though she is a villain; she tries to rebuke the former player, Koirog, who does not know the difference between the game and reality and continues to commit evil acts; she is surprised that she has children and grandchildren even though she has never even experienced love, and treats them as a "mother (or grandmother)"; she is dealing with life and the sudden creation of her family in her way. She is dealing with life and her new family in her way, and accepts her second life in Riadale as a reality.
* She is also not very good at drinking, as she used to be a minor, but she is often invited to banquets, where she often gets hungover, regrets it, and promises to drink again.

She finally became one of the top Lv1100 players who broke the limit of Lv1000, and became the third skill master in history. She has the nickname "*Silver Ring Witch*" (she hates that nickname very much). As she began to feel the burden of being cared for by her uncle and her cousins, she fell asleep while playing. She died at the age of 17. Now she reincarnated as her game avatar and brought her game specs (stats, weapon, etc.) in the new world, she is a considered a godlike (transcendentals) being in the time of age of gods.

Somehow, her consciousness was transferred into her game avatar Cayna 200 years in Leadale's future. At first confused as to why she was unable to log out or contact the administrators, Kee, who had also been transferred to Leadale with her, informed her of her situation and the fate of her physical body.

In the game, she is a rare 1100 level high elf and the Third Skill Master, giving her the ability to grant skills to players. Due to being a Skill Master and players constantly begging for skills, Cayna went to live in the remote frontier. She is a powerhouse on both the front lines and as a rear guard, but her specialty is using her endless supply of MP to wipe out enemies with magic. Her Guardian Tower sits in a vast forest and stretches high into the heavens; it can only be cleared if a player climbs to the top for twenty-four hours without stopping, which is considered the easiest of the thirteen trials. Her country server was the Black Kingdom of Lypras.

* Owned by Cayna:
	+ **Silver Tower** exists to bestow skills upon adventures through a trial. It reproduces the Skill Master's unique skill. Thus, the skill masters pleaded to the game staff to change the system. As a solution, the game staff made it so that the Skill Masters had less direct responsibility. The player who wanted skills were diverted from directly begging Skill Masters for them. These players now had to first complete the quest generated by the NPC's.
		- Cayna's quest is very straightforward. Only those who can climb the tower and reach the top within 24 hours gave the right to receive a skill.
	+ **Colosseum, Underwater palace** & etc.

In the game, she was known and feared by her two sobriquets: The Silver Ring Witch and Ferocious Firepower. As a high-ranking player, she belonged to a guild called "*Cream Cheese*". Due to her characteristics as a high elf, she can hear "plant screams" when walking in green places, such as a forest, stepping on flowers, collecting medicinal herbs and cutting down wood.
