Idk if this will clarify your confusion but, from what I understood:
At the beginning of the story, it was years after the game was launched and became real. I think it was 3 years..?
Mc died and came back three years ago to the day the game was launched.
-one month after the game was launched, it became reality.
(This still hasn’t happened yet, there’s still some days left until then (22 days i think)). MC knows this from before he went back in time.
After the game becomes reality, levelling up is no longer possible so he has to get stronger before the month ends and the game becomes a reality.
So wait he said there was 22 days left till the game became real? Has 3 years passed already???! Or did a time skip happened and I didnt read it lol cuz it happened sometimes however what level is he if the 3 years passed? Or like did I read something wrong I'm confused lol
