MC is the captain of a pro gaming team that just won the championship but he has to retire because he has late-stage cancer. His father is a top level researcher so he finds out about an experimental project on cryopreservation and joins it. He wakes up over a decade later and finds out that the game he played has just launched a virtual version. I'd really appreciate it if someone could tell me the title. I read it a while ago and can't remember the title and I couldn't find it on the list of E-sports novels on novelupdates.
