A book adaptation by KADOKAWA BOOKS has been confirmed!

In an era where every job, every hobby, and every aspect of life are inseparable from VR, a VR game developed with the latest technology of that time emerges, named "Boot hour, shoot curse."

The protagonist, who had only ever played solo during the closed beta test, goes on to make many "friends" in the official service (and not necessarily player friends), eventually growing into a figure who commands a massive "clan" (and not necessarily a player clan).

The title was arbitrary, at first.

Its meaning is later revealed in the main story.

The in-game name is arbitrary. It's a pun with no particular meaning. "Pigs are for shipping~"

This is a story about a protagonist who does whatever they please, viewing all characters as nothing more than EXP bags. It also contains elements of a "Wouldn't it be nice if the future world was like this?" scenario, though only at the beginning.

The main story has concluded. Thank you very much for your long-standing readership.

It received a Special Prize in the Character Literature category of the 7th Kakuyomu Contest. (2022/5/26)

Wait, is it okay to mention this here...?
