Settings
Following two years and half year after Infinity God of the World and End of the Network Crisis, which those events is a mark for the fall of MAMA Organization and the end of CyberConnect Corporation's corruptions with leading to the restoration of network online, connections, internet, traffics, and all issues around the world due to those effect. Along with the companies decision to restructured by removing the former allegiance of the corruptions and connection from those organization.

The restructured of the companies leads toward a new names known as CyberConnect 2 Corporation or name as CC2Corp in the act of their redemption for their crimes along with merging companies with ALTIMIT Corporation in promise to deliver the promise qualities, system admin protection, prices and the deliver the best experience for the next version of online game, The WORLD, which currently the previous version, The WORLD: Force Era being shut down due to the big incident two years ago and the decision to closed it's service was deemed to be a best way, along with their plans to developed a new reboot and sequel to the previous version. Fans had waiting for next version of the online game to be released, while another fans just moved forward and leave the game behind following the events which caused a lot pro and cons toward their opinions. Their planning to announce their next version of the game at the June 2028 on CyberConnect New Era Expo at Fukuoka, Japan.

While NAB is currently catch any remnants of the hackers who poses a threat to The World or they had any involvements with the former organization, MAMA. With the two worlds, now head for it's major restoration, the government around the world begin to opinion about the pro and cons also whether another Network Crisis could took a place that still left them in a doubtful place and even though the restoration has happened, it left something to be un-desire by many societies opinion.

Due to the hackers are still remain in hiding plain and sight, doing their illegal activities even after the end of Network Crisis and Immortal Dusk that possibly their plans to bring distortion to the online network once more. However, instead of that become an problems, the two ranked-SSS+ cybercriminal are still on the surface which is still active even following the Network Crisis, the group of terrorist which was known since 2024 A.D. known as The Watch Dogs, and the shadow hackers, Black CoDE who still remain hiding following the events of Black Morse Incident several months ago.

In the statement from NAB Director, Relena Northstein that even though MAMA organization has been compromised, a new problems could possibly set afoot in the middle of the restoration era, while the focus on catching the hackers is still continues, however the three ranked-SSS+ cybercriminal are very hard to catch, and the difficulties could arise, however, no one could predict any of their next move unless they need to extra careful to address the situation.

Even though the MAMA Organization has been compromised along with the death of Veronica Bain, Eleanor, Emma Wielant, and Dominique de Mirabeau, there are still many questions that are kept in the dark and left unanswered as it seems, every pieces of puzzle still not getting through of is this even connected to how past events came together so far, and Schwarz which is the biggest mystery of all is seems that become a key toward answer, but this however, still left in dark for that moment.
