Fortunately, a crew claiming to be bounty hunters seemingly stumbles upon him before his demise and brings him aboard. They offer to ferry him to the closest port so he can get transport home, which he readily accepts. Something seems... off about them, however.

Every insufferable lazy hedonist loser like Nol dreams of finding the lightly worn disguise of a trickster god so you can live lazy, get the hotties, and earn the worship you don’t deserve, right? YES! Unfortunately, it turns out this disguise was used it to assassinate the local high society cult’s god, and they now want a piece of her!... more>>

Nol has to juggle faking her divinity at the local pantheon’s secret meetings, not getting capture-murderized by a cult of society’s elite, but that’s not all! She’s supposed to learn magic to use the disguise's divine illusion magic? Pfft, no thanks! She buys a bootleg System installer and injects gamification into divinity. Because why learn magic when you can watch the levels go up and enjoy smooth brain dopamine?

Also, the disguise needs worship to replenish its magic. Luckily, Nol’s bankrupt from participating in MLM once so she’s an expert on creating totally functional and scalable and not at all asspull magic systems to handle the religion for her.

In this world: The only being one cared for was for themselves. In a world, where the only way to survive is by crushing the dreams and aspirations of others: There were no Heroes or Villains or Demons and Gods.

After being defeated in the Fourth World War, the powerful and honored Demon King Vaine, is one of the few demons allowed assistance by the Samsara System; thus his fate is to repent and reincarnate, but until then he shall serve the Greater Good of Humanity as a [Finisher].

This story is a jointed effort between me, and fellow scribbler Twilight777.

Post-Game features a post-apocalyptic world in a very far future, in the 28th century, where demons and beings of myth have dominated the world, and also lost it to the Skies. It is primarily a Xuanhuan, with flavors of cyber and steampunk, in this returned-to-medieval world. The cultivation content will come in slower, rather than immediate, specially because our protagonist has no special cheats or privileges; even the system he uses is acessible to all other sentient-beings in this world.

Things may get a little depressing or violent here and there, but this won't be no tear-jerker or misery-porn. And although Vaine starts off the story in a bad situation, he's not exactly useless, so I chose not to include weak-to-stronger; and neither strong-to-stronger, since he isn't...really that strong.

Sit and dream, put your mind at ease, and enjoy this ride. <<less
