    Summary

    "Welcome to a new user experience! You have triggered this interface with the keywords, ‘Stupid game! Stupid devs! I want my f*****g money back!’ You are now bound to the character Tartaglia, the Eleventh Harbinger of the Fatui, codename: Childe! We hope you have an enjoyable user experience and we welcome you once again to Genshin Impact 2.0!”

    Those are some of the first words Ajax, starving college student extraordinaire, has the misfortune of hearing upon waking up in a brave new world from what he's fairly sure is a very fatal accident involving water and a shit ton of electricity.

    Okay, so he's not dead. That's good. But what's this about him being stuck playing the character Tartaglia? Tartaglia, as in the no-good, one-dimensional, cartoonish villain who met his untimely, gruesome death in the first act of the original game?

    Forget this. Like hell Ajax is going to share that fate.

    And so begins one man's journey to save himself from his awful destiny.

    Summary

    There are few things worse than dying.

    But then again there are very few things better than being able to turn into a dragon, so I guess it balances out in the end?

    Regardless, this is the story of how I became a Hero.

    Summary

    Xiao'Beiye did *not* sign up for this.

    No.

    Absolutely not.

    Death was bad enough, but having to endure a second life on top of it?

    Rejected. Blocked. She'd like a refund now please.

    Worst yet...she was in some version of a historically inaccurate and anachronistic Ancient Fantasy China in the middle of what might-have-been an assassination attempt. One that was probably going to end with her either dead or married off far too young. The only light in her particular tunnel?

    Running away to Cang Qiong Mountain Sect, where they didn't care about your social status or wealth, only your potential as a cultivator. The only problem was, she *knew* that name. She knew what it implied about the future of the world around her.

    And she was *not* going to stand for it.

    No matter what she had to do - or who she had to piss off - to save the decent kid she met at the disciple selections, and his slave-brother, from a fate that could turn out far worse than death.

    Summary

    "No one's coming for you, Katsuki."

    And that, he thinks in between his attempts to breathe, is the greatest truth of all.

    So he does everything himself, regardless of how many pieces fall off in the process.
