His addiction is so strong his mother hardly sees him and his girlfriend wants to leave him. Juri destroys his games and decides to quit. But an old acquaintance from the net, "Mordred", contacts him and suggests they meet. Mordred turns out to be Niki who looks astonishingly like Juri. Juri sees a web address tattooed on Niki's arm and types it on his computer. He starts a game that gives him the user name RAT KING. Now friends, Niki promises to help Juri finish a dangerous game. This starts a series of events that lead to Juri's whole life being at stake.
