What’s Wrong with Playing a Summoner in a Game?

The Daughter of Curses is a little life-simulation game you downloaded on a whim to play when you were bored. According to the game’s setting, you were born into the Suguru family. You had a loving pair of parents and an incredibly cute older brother. Apart from raising the favorability of the NPCs around you every day, you also unlocked the combat system when you turned five. You chose the summoning class, which was said to let you overwhelm enemies with numbers. From then on, you enjoyed a happy life of classes on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and exorcising cursed spirits on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. Until the summer you turned fifteen. You put on the pretty new dress you had just bought and got ready to explore a newly opened map near Tokyo. Your older brother, who was away at school, suddenly came home and said he was going to kill you. He also asked where your parents were. You looked at his [Corruption: 100%] label and the string of stats beneath it. The hand holding your mouse trembled slightly. H-he has a health bar now! Your brother, Suguru, has a health bar now!! How did things come to this? Suguru stared blankly as countless cursed spirits grew like towering trees, blotting out the sky and making it seem as if the world had come to an end. The girl responsible for it all lounged upon a gloomy throne formed from cursed energy. Behind her, her immense cursed energy gathered into a twisted, frenzied vortex. She propped her head up with one hand, looking down at him with an inhuman indifference. Sticky tentacles that were everywhere flew toward him, coiling around his body and pinning him in place. Suguru: ??? Suguru: ??????!!!!!! *Player, looking at Suguru's shocked portrait: It's just a game! What's wrong with choosing the summoning class? (Absolutely unapologetic.jpg) *The main story is told in third person. *There is currently no romance in the main story. The side story features Satoru. *Also recommending my original upcoming novel! Oh No, I've Become an Interstellar Hegemony System Qi Xingyu, a professional game designer, collapsed on her way home after working overtime. When she woke up, a mysterious voice had appeared in her mind. The voice told her that she had died from overwork. She could only keep living because her life had been bound to the planet Weitan. She had just one week to live. To survive, she had to revive this planet, which had once been devastated by an Imperial planet-destroying weapon. She now had the authority to allocate all the resources on the planet. "As long as you can revive this dead planet and take revenge on the Empire, you can do whatever you want." Qi Xingyu: ... "Hold on. Let me take a look." She opened the collection of planetary resources provided by the mysterious voice. The bad news: After being hit by the Empire's planet-destroying weapon, the planet was so polluted that it was utterly unfit for human habitation. The life energy provided to her would keep her alive for, at most, another month. The good news: More than a thousand android bodies were still preserved underground. They could connect to the minds of humans on Earth and be controlled by them. After testing how agile the android bodies were, Qi Xingyu had an epiphany: I get it!! She quickly opened an Earth gaming forum and wrote a post. Good news!!! The 100% realistic full-dive game Interstellar Hegemony is here!! Sign up now!!! Forum users: "Heh, even the name's ripping off StarCraft. Looks like trash." "A 100% full-dive game?? In your dreams???" "Wake up. It's not 2233 yet, and you haven't transmigrated~" Later, the forum users were saying: "Waaah, it really is a full-dive game! This is amazing!!" "Why are the android bodies taking so long to repair? Let me out, I want to log in!!" "Report!! We repaired a spaceship today!!" "It's time to conquer the stars! Trash Empire, tremble beneath our feet! Hahahaha!" Before long, people in the Empire began to notice a certain group of people. They feared neither death nor danger, and never seemed to tire. They fought like mad dogs, yet spoke to others with the warmth of a spring breeze. No one could figure out what they were thinking or what they intended to do. They were the most troublesome, most dangerous people in the galaxy. They cared nothing for money or profit. The only one they cared about was their one and only "King," far away on a heavily polluted planet. * Qi Xingyu: That's right. I'm the game designer they call a god. =v= Theme: Cooperation and teamwork are the foundation of success~
