In a world fractured by reality glitches that spawn monsters made of bad code and nonsensical physics, a perpetually unimpressed ex-IT support technician discovers his unique ability isn't fighting or magic, but debugging the damned apocalypse itself, attracting powerful grills who find his knack for fixing the universe (and their broken tech) disturbingly attractive (slow-burn harem, tertiary element, not forced).

Right, listen up, meatbags. The world didn't politely end with nukes or zombies. No, reality itself apparently rage-quit, slammed Alt-F4, and now we're living in the cosmic equivalent of a Windows ME crash dump, complete with physics errors, texture glitches spawning monsters made of dial-up noise, and a "System" that's less helpful overlay and more passive-aggressive error log generator.

And guess who drew the short straw for tech support? Yeah. Me. Ren. Ex-Tier 2 drone, current freelance Reality Debugger. My superpower isn't punching holes in reality, it's applying the occasional sanity patch, untangling hostile geometry errors, and maybe, just maybe, figuring out why gravity sometimes decides to take five in the middle of the street.

What This Is:
  • LitRPG: But the Universal Runtime Environment (URE) is unreliable, buggy, and probably hates you. Don't expect clean stat sheets or balanced skills. Progression is... messy.
  • Post-Apocalypse: Where the apocalypse is the glitch. Expect weirdness, absurdity, and things that defy explanation trying to eat your face.
  • Snark & Dark Humor: My coping mechanism. Filtered through years of dealing with user error, now applied to cosmic horror.
  • Adventure & Survival: Main focus. Staying alive, scavenging, figuring out what the hell happened and if reality has a rollback option.
  • Harem? (Tagged for Honesty): Yeah, it's tagged. But before you sharpen pitchforks or get too excited, it's slow burn, rooted in practical reliance on my unique skillset (apparently debugging reality makes you weirdly popular when everyone's gear keeps glitching out), and definitely not the main focus. Think spice, not main course. Suggestive, awkward, nothing explicit. This ain't that kind of story (mostly).

What to Expect:
  • Chapters: Aiming for 1200-1500+ words each.
  • Schedule: Monday to Friday, with occassional weekend soda parties if the Glitches Allow.
  • Length: Long haul planned. Hundreds of chapters if the server hamsters hold out.
First chapter below. Try not to trip over any clipping errors on your way in. Comments, feedback, and pointing out my typos are grudgingly accepted. Just don't ask me to fix your printer.
