Hail_The_loli

Renji, a devoted player of a post-apocalyptic game, had numerous exes who were all fictional characters within the game. As a firm believer in strength, Renji would strip useless characters of their equipment and resources, relegating them to the background as caretakers while giving the best to new, powerful characters. He insisted this was temporary, all for the sake of advancing in the game and saving the precarious post-apocalyptic world.
However, these "fictional characters" didn't seem to agree with Renji's perspective. When Renji, with his emphasis on strength and meticulous planning, fulfilled his mission as the "savior" by putting an end to the source of Tainted Miasma in the wasteland and becoming the first to achieve a "perfect clearance," he unexpectedly found himself transported to the game's second stage. Renji had thought he would soar directly into a carefree life, but he soon realized that things were not quite as he had imagined.

The important characters he encounters, their illustrations will be posted in Characters Chapter 00.

Fallen Chronicles

To Renji's surprise, the Source Lord did not directly attack them like before.

The phoenix perched on the crown of the world tree transmitted an ethereal voice to him.

The phoenix seemed to be communicating with him, which surprised Renji quite a bit.

Because from previous experiences interacting with the Sources, it seemed that for the Source, they viewed "intelligence" as non-essential. The vast majority of Sources did not possess the awareness to communicate.

But Renji also hadn't forgotten that in Lena's diary, there had indeed appeared Sources that were forced to give birth to "intelligence" due to external environmental limitations.

The current Source Lord should be the same.
