The thing is, our MC had already fallen into the trap of working solely for money in his previous life as a salaryman and nearly fell into the same pattern in this new universe, using survival as an excuse.

It’s not so much a hero complex as it is a desire to make his new life meaningful, even if that means putting himself in danger from time to time.

In Kynara and the Ashen Sector, only D, E, and F-rank mercenaries operate, as these backwater regions lack the demand or resources for higher-tier contracts. This makes the branch master’s status as a former C-rank particularly notable, as C-rank is the minimum requirement to oversee a guild branch and signifies exceptional skill and experience.

The muscle aches are due to intensive neural stimulation combined with prolonged immobility.

I just binge-read your fic, and I’ve got to say that it’s an absolute masterpiece, mate. What’s your Patreon ? I’d love to check out the edits.

I love stories that incorporate an internet system into a new world. It’s such a niche concept, so I’m glad to have found this one. It’s also quite light-hearted and doesn’t take itself too seriously, which makes for an enjoyable, quick read.

Thank you for your comment. You're absolutely right, those professions face you've cited immense mental strain, and it's a subject i wanted to touch on with care in the story. I'm glad it resonated with you.

Thank you so much for giving my story a go and leaving a comment. I hope you enjoy the galactic journey friend. Also, if you find it to your liking in the coming days, i’d be grateful if you could leave a fair review. It would mean the world to me.

The story is an enjoyable read, with a hardworking protagonist who brings creativity to the use of basic jutsus in battles. The fight scenes are engaging. The main character interacts with others in a way that feels natural, with dialogue that doesn't come across as forced. Overall, it’s a worthwhile read.
