THE DAY OF CORRUPTIONAfter spending his twenties as a shut-in, Yoshio’s life has begun to change, thanks to getting his hands on an incredible game called “The Village of Fate.” Its graphics are amazing, and the characters are so lifelike that they seem almost like real people.

With the NPCs short on weapons and manpower, can Yoshio protect them until the dawn?

I actually beat the lord of the Labyrinth stratum! This vending machine's not doing too bad for himself, huh? However, an increase in notoriety means an increase in requests.

I'm up to the challenge, though. I just hope her boundless gluttony doesn't exhaust all the food (and points) I have!
