Sometimes the best way to save the world is to ignore it completely.
Nathan Lee has exactly three talents: overthinking social encounters, avoiding responsibility, and farming in video games. When the apocalypse hits, he accidentally dumps all his rare skill points into... fishing. Just his luck.
Now Nathan's trapped in the hardest tutorial mode the System could devise. After that, nine deadly realms stand between humanity and their way home.
The would-be heroes can go save the world with [Gigantic Sword of Doom] and [Fireball Barrage]. Nathan's busy maxing out [Ability to Sit Quietly in a Boat]. He’ll ride out the end times and leave the hero stuff to people who don't get queasy at the sight of blood.
Too bad the universe has other plans.
His first day in the tutorial, he accidentally deletes a monster from reality thanks to a system bug. Then he feeds experimental radishes to a giant snail and somehow earns [Shell of Protection].

Disclaimer: I’ve read up to the end of book 1. Yes, I’m aware that the prose and characterization improves, but my critique does not target those areas.
Just a filler post in order to have something here. Actual content will come soon, promise!
