Don't Pick a Lame Game ID in Jujutsu

Progress: First A Realm Reborn playthrough (complete) → returning to solve the mystery → account theft appeal in progress

The main point-of-view pronouns change starting in Chapter 49. Later chapters include a brief account switch (that is, a female character account). The character’s real gender will be revealed outright in that section, and this is only to help advance the plot. It will not affect any romantic storylines, and no romance will develop under this identity. Please keep that in mind.

Player Diary, Part One:

Your cousin recommended a game called Jujutsu Fantasy XIV.

Putting everything else aside, this opening is pretty cliche.

Anyway, at your cousin’s insistence, you downloaded the game and created a character using her favorite premium male Hyur face 6.

After work that evening, you logged in and met the first level 9999 player in the game.

You made a friend.

Player Diary, Part Two:

Actually, you think you get along pretty well with your friends.

Sure, they like strange role-playing games and always pretend to be heroes of the world, but you’re still understanding about their childish teenage phase.

Wondering why you’re so calm about it?

Haha, you’re a legendary corporate drone who transmigrated to another world and then transmigrated back again.

One day, you discovered you could save the virtual characters, and, in your own way, successfully achieved a Happy End.

You discovered that people hated you.

Player Diary, Part Three:

You were too busy with work, so you quit the game.

■Only a tiny bit of Final Fantasy XIV game content and a moderate amount of Touken Ranbu content.

■The early chapters have a fourth-dimensional player perspective; the main story will probably have no clearly defined pairing.

■There is a true-name reveal, and the ending has multiple routes. The story is not intended for self-insertion.

■The name is not meant as an insult. The streamer likes Riko, and the Star Plasma Vessel incident will be changed.

Thanks to @shus, darling, for drawing my cover. Kisses, kisses, kisses! I just had to give you a big smooch here!

Theme: Make up for regrets and enjoy the game.
