Art cannot wait to explore Beast Realms and discover the creatures that inhabit its vast virtual wilds. Choosing the lizard-man race, Art is now able to evolve, transforming parts of himself into newer, more powerful forms as he gains experience - definitely an improvement on his real-life. But when Art catches a Shadow-bound grub as his beast companion and accidentally allies himself with a less-than-trustworthy thief, his alignment changes from Light-bound to Neutral. That's when things start to go downhill. His guild members become his enemies and a powerful fire mage swears a deadly vendetta against him. Now, Art must throw his cautious nature to the wind. To defeat his foes, he chooses to undergo unique and dangerous training to unlock ever-changing sets of skills... It’s time for him to evolve.
