Synopsis
The novel tells the story of Kaede Honjou, a young woman who starts playing the MMO NewWorld Online at the request of her friend Risa Shiramine. In the game Kaede creates the character Maple, but the character's fear of feeling pain makes her put all her experience points into defense. As a result, she moves slowly, cannot use magic, and even a rabbit can get the best of her. But as it turns out, she acquires a skill known as “Absolute Defense” as a result of putting her points into VIT, as well as a “Counter Skill” that works against special moves. Now, with her ability to nullify all damage, she embarks on adventures.
