## Summary

Art Earth Online is a VRMMORPG, in which players had the absolute freedom. Eventually they could even own kingdoms and wage wars against other player's kingdoms, creating an Age of Strife, where the warriors had the biggest roles and mages were bleak. However, there was the Kingdom of Alcait, ruled by the paladin, Solomon, where mages who didn't had where to go, found salvation. Among them, some were exceptional and mastered nine different type of magic, the Nine Wise Men. The one that Solomon trusted the most was Danblf, also known as the One-Man Army.

Solomon calls Danblf, requesting him to defeat ten thousand monsters who are attacking the kingdom. Danblf accepts, but comments the timing strange as many of the Wise Men are elsewhere busy with other work. After the request, Danbalf and Solomon are chilling together, commenting it was a good fantasy role play and that Danbalf even took a screenshot. As they look at other past screenshots, they see the monster at Lunatic Lake. Danblf then comments how difficult it was to take down that monster and how they had to extra prepare for it. Solomon adds that after defeating it, they founded the Kingdom of Alcait. Danblf comments that quest are fun, because they don't require strength only and also how much time he spend watching fantasy movies to create his character Danblf as an ideal wizard. Danblf states that he can't control ten thousand monsters, and either someone created a new spell or a new monster was born.

Stepping outside, Danblf meets Lythalia, who informs him that Luminaria is off alone to reinforce an allied kingdom and they will need to redraw the maps again. Danblf then meets Amaratte, who informs him that Soul Howl is gone to defend the border to the south. Danblf then visits Mariana and Cleo informing them that he is heading out to battle. Using his flying island, Danblf faces the monsters. He then summons his army, seven Valkyries and a thousand Dark Knights, and engages them in a battle. He guesses that someone needs to lead them and with the help of Cait Sith, he finds a monster that looks different than the rest. Danblf then himself faces the monster and easily defeats it. Seeing that, the rest of the monsters attempt to escape, but Danblf summons Aizenfald and obliterates the escaping monsters. Returning to the kingdom, Solomon praises Danblf for defeating the monsters. However, several days later, Danblf would disappear along with other Wise Men, causing the biggest crisis in the Kingdom of Alcait.

A girl wakes up in a field. Eventually she finds her way to a town and enjoys some food and walking around the streets. She ends up seeing her reflection and finds herself cute.
