When sinister schemes clash with unwavering conviction, who will emerge victorious?
After an unexpectedly challenging journey, Ray and his party finally arrive at Gideon, The City of Duels. The mere sight of the towering arenas and thriving fantasy townscapes is enough to instantly awe and enchant him. However — like anything that stands tall and proud — the city cast a great, dark shadow. The name of this shadow is the Gouz-Maise gang — a loathsome band of cutthroats who turn their profit kidnapping children and demanding ransom. Ray, wide-eyed and innocent, was blissfully unaware of just how cruel the hyper-realistic world of Infinite Dendrogram would become.
Ray's climb towards becoming a super paladin continues, but it's never as easy as anyone hopes. While walking the streets of Gideon, When fighting off a band of hoodlums harassing a young woman, he meets a flamboyant new ally named Hugo, and the two decide to cooperate in order to take down a nefarious criminal group known as the Gouz-Maise gang. But little did Ray know that this seemingly simple rescue mission would cement just how gruesome a reality the world of Infinite Dendrogram could become. Can Ray keep his in-game life — and dignity — intact, or is he just another cog in the machine of Infinite Dendrogram?
Show up, destroy a band of necromancers, defeat the boss, and go home to blow your winnings at the gacha spinner. Too bad Ray never has it so easy, and this time, the boss left behind a trap that turns the local bandits into a gigantic, gruesome, grudge-powered gross-out monster - with his own soul at the center. Can Ray figure out how to take it out on his own? And wait, why's there a flashback?! Watch out for that truck!
