The Boundless Vacation Street Takes In Heartbroken NPCs

As the Infinite Game's Lord God changes hands, all the instances are shaken up. Some even break and can no longer operate, leaving their NPCs displaced.

Looking at the empty little world, where tumbleweeds roll across the ground, the current Lord God, Xinghuo, thinks of her dream of opening a vacation resort street and calls out a slogan without changing expression:

"Infinite Vacation Street: A home for heartbroken NPCs."

Which instance should she visit today to strong-arm someone into switching sides... no, to give a home to a poor NPC?

Employee recruitment scene 1

Xinghuo: "You're pretty good at cooking. Want to help me open a restaurant?"

Boss: "I only hunt players."

Xinghuo: "A chef who can only handle one kind of meat really is useless. Never mind."

Boss: "?!"

Employee recruitment scene 2

Xinghuo: "You make good wine. Want to open a hot spring inn with me?"

Boss: "I'm going to brew the elixir of immortality! People nourish the wine, not the other way around!"

Xinghuo: "An idiot who thinks drinking doesn't harm your health and might even be good for you. Never mind."

Boss: "?!"

Xinghuo: "..."

BOSS: "..."

Xinghuo: "I don't hire child labor."

BOSS: "I'm an adult!! Wait, I don't want a job!!"

Players who used to have to huddle in their vans to rest in the Infinite Game suddenly discover a vacation street where they can take a break between instances.

They can eat and sleep here, soak in hot springs, buy items, and meet up to talk with other players. Everything is so wonderful.

Except...

Player A: "I want to complain! I ended up here because I got food poisoning from a budget meal. Why is there still mass-produced budget food at the restaurant here?!"

Player B: "I want to complain! I'm part of the NPC walkthrough group, and I saw my ex-wife here. Help, help, help!"

Player C: "I want to complain! Why the hell is that janitor chasing me and trying to eat me? Am I really that trashy?!"

Xinghuo: "..."

Players are such a handful.

Reading guide:

1. The female lead is the Lord God: sharp-tongued, expressionless, nonhuman, and lacking some basic human knowledge. She is overwhelmingly strong and invincible.

2. The vacation street she runs is a proper vacation resort, not a place that lures people in to kill them.

3. Not a conventional infrastructure-building or business-management story. The female lead often visits other horror instances to learn skills and recruit employees. Not a conventional infinite-flow story, and it isn't scary.

4. The focus is on the main plot. The male lead is a haughty, old-fashioned vampire, a comic-relief tool character in the literal sense. He's not pure background, but there isn't much romance.

5. Updates daily at 9 a.m.

Theme: Hold the spark in your hands, and dawn will surely come.
