Settings
Three years after the beginning of A New Age of the God Twilight the both world has received a different grimmer crisis.

The Online World
The Online World is now in raging of chaos, players had come on killing each other for throat and half population on earth who were trapped in the online game were in hanging balance between life and death, over 30-35% of them are gone outer dependency syndrome or killed, only 20% of them are able to resist those syndrome as a potential of doubleware or survived from those.

With three factions are on race for different ways with same purpose to fight against ENTIES (Akira Kuryuu) as the new god of The WORLD, there are also one more factions, as Adventurer who do not participated in any of factions and do according their own wills to do and those who were Non-Affliated Factions can stay with their normal lifes and normal jobs, even in the Online World, but the condition for those who had no resistance for ODS might undergone for those stages real soon.

The system of Akashic World which merged with The WORLD: Twilight Universal which combines all the system like War which doesn't even exist in previous version of The World R:X, along with other system from previous version of The World which due to the bigger effects of re-operational of Akashic Records which could cause the time data being messed and covered all over the system of online world.

Those system in online world also has a system that could lead the players died in real-time, and not becaming comatose, raising the panics to all players that could lead an inevitable suicide or killing each other and the day goes everyday for half of humanities who were trapped in the online world due to the Real Digitalization, causing many of those becoming Outer Dependency Syndrome. But even so, people might be able to visits many familiar areas they known in the previous version of The World online game.

The players who gone through Outer Dependency Syndrome becomes a living creatures that all factions fighting about known as Noir which is the creature that roaming around all areas of The World which is something that survivor had fighting for and being forces to kill those who were used as a player. They begin hunting another players to become their live stocks, and begin continuously to hunt and kill those survivor, which the three factions is doing what they fighting for.

The Real World
The Real World situation is balanced between Good and Bad, but it was worst than anyone could imagine with him as a new god controlling all system network and overruling the Real World's order and his ways of control all system causing the bigger threat more than just a Network Crisis.

Another issues with global warming, media propaganda, corruptions, shortage power outage, total unstabilize network, and much more causing the uproar to every half of the population in almost chaos has brought in every place of nations, with governments and leader of the world had no hold controlling the every citizen causing the chaos was too much for them to control, which simply known as the Disasterous Network Crisis and Tragedy in Human History with over 1 Millions people died through goes process of the tragedy with half of populations in earth disappeared and trapped in the online world which became a great news all over the media.

The condition under goes through major descruction and sight of unrest for civilian over the real information that were kept by government from them, bringing all chaos goes toward beyond what they could control. As result, several governments around the world died, and the people seeks a new allegiance, creating a new nations and liberty, but this could also raise a possibility leads to the World War III which how the new nations and new allegiance had creating a new chaos and war all over the world with innocents people involved with it, died along with it. The World has gone through tortuous situation that they couldn't even handled, even they only had to do was to survive.

The Order of the Twilight.
Another of notes that, a new secret society known as The Order of the Twilight whose is also known for worshipping ENTIES as their new gods along with carrying his philosophy, ideology, and wills. They're responsible for the tragedies in the real world happens as an act of the wish from the new god of the twilight seeks for The End. They were hide within ranks of government, company, and many majority popular celebrities who devoted themselves for his causes for The World's End and works behind the scene as either of them as an hacker and sacrifice themselves in order to make sure his goals and their wish are being fulfilled and those who defied those wish will be died tragically along with their parents and getting tremendous threat to work with their cause.

There's also players who operating in the online world, but they were known as the Hacker for the Order who has same how it cames in the real world also fulfilling the wishes of the new gods for the calamity of the world and it's humanity itselfs. They also work behind the scene to make sure people fell into despairness and lead up extinction through using media propaganda, false infos that makes it real, controlling the order between online and the world, and controlling all administration of all networks through ATMs, internet, information, and more in order to make sure it all goes under the gods wish and leads to humanity's doom.
