Playing games was meant to be entertaining. But what happens when the game you're playing becomes the real world? And what happens when you're the System? Tasked with defending an ordinary world from Invasions, you might think the solution would be simple. After all, you've got heroes, armies, magic, and an entire civilization at your disposal. There's just one problem. Most of the people you're protecting are ordinary humans. Your enemies? Gods. Existences who have long since transcended humanity. Gods who can twist reality, defy causality, and exist beyond the very concept of time. Yeah. Anyone would curse their luck after being handed a game this messed up. And frankly, I would've gladly joined the folks giving this whole situation a grand middle finger. ...Ah, damn it. I really shouldn't have stayed up all night playing that game.
