I, the Rhodes Island Doctor, Am a Recruiter!

(The entire novel is free and will not be put behind a paywall.) With no hope, no light, and nothing left, a man reaches a new world at the end of his life. He thinks himself lucky: there's a job suited to him, friendly coworkers, an adorable beast-eared female boss, a subordinate with whom things are pleasantly ambiguous, and hilarious, lighthearted antics every day. He thinks this cheerful daily life will go on forever. This is a fairy tale written in the world of Arknights, a world as absurd as a joke, by a good man who dreams of saving it. Or perhaps it's an epic? Author's note: This story does not sing of suffering, but of the hope that still shines after suffering has passed. May your passion never fade.
