Her name is Lucia. She is the daughter of a baronial family, but her mother was a maid who was treated harshly within the noble household. After a time, Lucia and her mother were cast out and lived in poverty. However, when Lucia was born, she received a basic element of fire since she was a citizen of the Kingdom of High Crowns.
Determined to improve her life, Lucia worked very hard. By the age of 12, she became an adventurer and gained nobility. Sometimes, she would be away on long quests that lasted a week or two. Everything was going well until her mother died in an accident when Lucia was 14. Fueled by anger over her mother's death, she sought answers and discovered at the age of 16 that her former family was responsible; it was one of her step-siblings who had killed her mother.
Driven by rage and a thirst for revenge, Lucia dedicated herself even more to her ambitions. She built multiple connections, established her own guild, and promoted her nobility and military status, ultimately surpassing her family's influence.
When she turned 17, she wholeheartedly entered the conflict with her former family. Without mercy, she executed all her step-siblings, her stepmother, and the person responsible for the curses cast upon her and her mother. She also killed her father. Afterward, she held a proper funeral for her mother, attended by trusted comrades.
At the age of 18, she renounced her citizenship in the Kingdom of High Crowns and left with her comrades, guildmates, and others with whom she had connections. At the time, the Kingdom of High Crowns had no idea they were losing someone significant, someone who would enhance their power on a global scale. They only realized this when Lucia—who held the noble title of Marquis Lucia Veritas de Flamebreak—at the age of 20, broke the record by surpassing the highest level in the Kingdom of High Crowns.
Marquis Evie de Everhart was a Knightess in the Kingdom Crown Army, well-loved and treated with great respect, as she was considered a prodigy. However, everything changed when a former citizen of the Kingdom of High Crowns, Marquis Lucia Veritas de Flamebreak—now a citizen of the Eagle of Unified States—surpassed her record. The situation became even more complicated when the Kingdom of High Crowns sought to bring Lucia back to honor her for her accomplishments as a former citizen of the kingdom.
At that time, Evie de Everhart was a Level 1500 Player, holding the highest player level in the Kingdom of High Crowns. Over the years, she gave up her pride in seeking recognition and fame. Instead, she focused on self-improvement, ultimately reaching Level 1750 in the present day.
There was a worldwide interview for players who had reached an impressive level, and one of the participants was Lucia. During the interview, she honestly revealed that she was a former citizen of the Kingdom of High Crowns. However, she had abandoned everything related to that kingdom and was no longer associated with it. As a result, the Kingdom of High Crowns lost an opportunity to gain power. In the 1980s, Lucia urged the Kingdom to address its issues, though they were unaware of what specific problems she was referring to.
Currently, Lucia resides in the Eagle of Unified States. After turning 24, she explored multiple high-level dimensional gates and dungeons and actively participated in gate outbreaks. Through her efforts, she, along with her comrades and guildmates, continued to level up. At the age of 25, she unexpectedly unlocked two additional elements: Flame and Lava. This late blooming allowed her to harness the powers of Fire, Flames, and Lava. Now, at the age of 25, Lucia is a Level 2500 player.
During the 1990s, unexpected events unfolded surrounding her disappearance. She vanished from the world, and while her enemies celebrated, her allies mourned her absence. Lucia was a valuable player within the Eagle of Unified States, so search parties were dispatched to find her. After three years, the world declared her dead or presumed dead, as no body had been found. Two years later, a massive dimensional gate appeared in the capital city of the Eagle of Unified States. To everyone's surprise, only one person emerged from it—Lucia.
Lucia shared her incredible experience of entering an unknown dimensional gate and finding herself trapped for over a thousand years. Surprisingly, even high-profile and influential individuals, as well as top-ranking players and from the Three Supreme Sovereign Rulers of Elysiara, believed her story. They recounted similar experiences of being thrown into an unknown dungeon, which seemed designed for life-and-death combat. This dungeon also aggressively increased their levels based on the number of monsters they defeated.
During a recent interview, a reporter asked Lucia about her current level. She revealed that she had stopped monitoring her status window because she was constantly engaged in battles for a millennium. When she finally disclosed her level, everyone was shocked to learn that she had skyrocketed from Level 2500 to Level 9500.
After taking a year-long vacation, Lucia was promptly promoted and recommended to join the Three Supreme Sovereign Rulers of Elysiara. The world now knows her as the Rising Sun Arbiter, a formidable figure capable of wielding fire, flame, and lava.

A week after the new system was implemented, representatives, nobles, royalty, military officials, politicians, association members, and many others—both important and less important—gathered at the largest convention center in the entire world of Elysiara to share their thoughts. Only one of the Three Supreme Sovereign Rulers of Elysiara was present, as most of them were away from the realm.
The Illvarra Empire, a small archipelago nation often considered less significant by more powerful nations, also attended. However, what drew the attention of these stronger nations was a single individual they needed to locate: Accel von Winchester. He was closely monitored by the Luminescent Faith, including the Saintess of Luminescent Hope and the Supreme Matriarch.
In the center of the massive conference hall stood the Rising Sun Arbiter, Lucia Veritas de Flamebreak. She sensed a powerful divinity emanating from an individual among the attendees, but she couldn't identify who it was, as this person was not yet known to the world, nor to their nation—only to some within their territories.
