After diving into the god-tier VR game Shangri-La Frontier, Sunraku (a.k.a. Rakuro Hizutome) suffers a crushing defeat by the unique monster Lycagon the Nightslayer. Sunraku comes away from the encounter with a mark that prevents him from equipping anything on his legs or torso. But don't count him out yet! Joined by Emul, the gregarious vorpal bunny, he presses on along a path that will bring him face to face with terrifying new foes, and even some familiar names from the gaming world.
