1 Prologue part 1 - What is the protagonist?

The protagonist is just the setting for the story.

Where it is a package from that world.

It is expected to play the role of a stage set as a simple presence.

Otherwise, the story would not develop at all.

In the game, the protagonist refers to the player's alter ego, but the player has the god's perspective. So no doubt.

For example, the main Protagonist in Galge Games.

For some reason, he is irresistible to girls, has few male friends, and suffers from amnesia at critical junctures.

Sometimes, you can't see out of both eyes because of my fucking heavy bangs, and for some reason I have an older sister and a younger sister but no older brother or younger brother.

You're a student, you live alone, and you even have a mother who looks like a teenager.

The player is convinced that "that's just the way it is" even though the protagonist is such a mysterious being.

That's because they have God's perspective.

The same is true of the galge spacetime.

There are teachers and chancellors who look like little girls at school, and the world is supposed to be an ordinary world.

They can also be involved in scale battles.

I think it's also "well, that's just the way it is".

It would be difficult to play galge if I had to deal with every single one of those things.

On the flip side, both the protagonist and the galge universe must be tonsured.

There was a time when I too longed for such a world.

... How is that possible!

"It's closing time for all of them, Toys "R" Us and SofSop!"

Don't underestimate working people! We work overtime every day, and we are reprimanded and sarcastic every day, so we can't even use our paid holidays properly.

You're taking away my precious reward with your cheap fucking wages. I live every day with a worn out heart!

Damn it! That's disgusting. I want to shove my resignation letter in the mouth of the executive director's bald head. How do you like the resignation letter? I'd like to ask him.

What the hell is wrong with you, you chilly scalp? You want me to completely burn out your hair follicles? It's a service. I'll polish your scalp to a shine.

Also! The boss of the super-explosive temper. It's you. You yell at me over trivial things day in and day out. Don't take your stress out on the people below you.

What is it about raising the human stage? What is the point of investing in the future? Give back to the lower ranks the retained earnings that you have amassed. Management is not a game.

You are a black company, what is it that you want me to do with my hands and not with my mouth? The lower level workers are not your pawns.

What's 100 hours of overtime last month? Did I report you to the Labor Department? See you in court. I'll sue you for power harassment.

You've been picking on me day in and day out, and so have you, the managing director. The next time I see you is in court.

"Sleep with a shiver!"

"Hah ... hah ... frustration has exploded."

Calm down, me.

I've gotten quite sidetracked. I guess I am upset. I have become emotionally unstable.

"Phew"

My current situation.

It's too much trouble to summarize in three lines.

Let's start from the conclusion.

I've been reincarnated as a shitty character.

Here and now.

That's all. End of explanation.

-------------------- The story of what happened goes back one day.

As I recall, it was this way.

"Megus of Chevalier" is a galge with a lot of action RPG elements. Also known as Megashuva.

About 1000 playable characters and a rich scenario.

Numerous strategic gameplay and many combat elements.

Ranking competitions among users.

A game that gained popularity for its beautiful illustrations and graphics.

An off-the-cuff legal battle between the management company and the Computer Software Ethics Organization (commonly known as Sofurin), the most powerful enemy of all gal gamers, shook users.

That is Mega Shuva.

I had just completed a 10-year history of Mega Shuva and was watching the end rolls.

Today the final chapter was implemented in Mega Shuva.

And I finally cleared it.

The complete clear that I had dreamed of.

Finally, I will see the end of this game to which I devoted my youth, my holidays, and my small deposit.

I felt excited and a little sad at the same time.

I wondered if the game was finally over.

It was as if a gaping hole had been created in my heart.

Today was finally my paid day off.

I had applied for the day off three months in advance.

I had been soaring since this morning. I was excited to finally be able to witness the end of this story with the many heroines.

It was a series of hardships.

A game system that was too severe.

Too many elements to pay for.

Many traps that kill you the first time you play.

Too many choices.

Defeated many last bosses in many routes.

I was shaken when I saw the heroine's smile after conquering the scenario that I had struggled so hard for.

I was deeply moved that this long and intense battle was finally over.

I finally defeated the last enemy.

And I knew it would be waiting for me.

The best ending.

"No, don't do that. ..."

I can't take my shaking hands off the keyboard.

I can hear myself gulping down a mouthful of saliva.

"It can't be. It can't be"

I can't even afford a dry laugh.

On the LCD panel in front of me, the names of the companies and production staff are written in white letters on a black screen, and they are displayed in a vertical line.

"Not... yet"

It's not over yet.

There must be a big twist after the ending. This must be a fake ending credit.

"Yo, well ... well hahaha."

He lights a cigarette with a rattling, trembling hand.

Finally, the names of the producers, executive director, scenario writers, and other major players were shown, and the screen switched to a single image of the main character looking up at the sunrise.

After the end roll with the theme song, the word "fin" and the name of the management company appeared in the corner of the screen, and we returned to the opening screen of the game.

Silence falls over the room.

"I know this a lying ...."

It was such a dumb word that I was finally able to utter.

I feel dizzy.

The culmination of a scenario that has been going on for about 10 years is ending up like this: ....

This ending cannot be overlooked. It's no good. I don't know if it was anger, but I was mad. I quietly lifted up my hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of gaming PC and started to play.

"Can you convince me... ahhh !!!!!!"

With a yell, he threw the computer into the living room.

At that moment, I heard a "pop! I heard a sickening sound from the back of my brain, and my vision went black.
