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. Within the game, Kaede creates the character Maple, but her fear of pain leads her to invest all her experience points in defense. As a result, she moves slowly, cannot use magic, and even a rabbit can get the better of her. But, as it turns out, she acquires a skill known as "Absolute Defense" as a result of investing her points in VIT, as well as a "Counter Skill" that works against special moves. Now, with her ability to nullify all damage, she embarks on adventures.
