Born alongside seven others in a small area due to a magical disaster caused by the Voidbringers, Will faces an immediate threat: they have returned, and they can corrupt dungeons.

Mira has a problem. No matter what world she transmigrates into, she always ends up as the villain. This time she wakes up as Violet Coventry, the infamous antagonist of a three-part dating sim game. In the original story, Violet allegedly bullied the sweet heroine Cecily Rousseau out of jealousy over her connection with Prince Andrei — who also happened to be Violet's fiancé — destroying her reputation and forcing her from school in disgrace.

Fortunately, Mira has plenty of experience surviving in trope universes. Unfortunately, the third installment of the game wasn't released before she died, so she has no idea what the endgame holds.

Dungeons are an integral part of so many stories and worlds — the foundation of an economy, a place for the weak to grow strong, or a threat to civilization itself. Nearly as common as the idea of a dungeon is the concept of a dungeon core. But where did dungeon cores first come from? Are they a natural occurrence? When did they first appear? This is the story of the first dungeon core.

As a programmer, Ike knows all about Virtual Dive Experiences — but when he suddenly wakes up in a virtual game he has never heard of, he is too busy struggling to survive to worry about how he got there. Luckily, he has a trick up his sleeve: the ability to program custom enchantments for his gear. He will need that and more to figure out what is going on, since there is no tutorial and True Calling plays by its own rules: your class and race are chosen for you, the NPCs are indistinguishable from the players, every quest is unique, and the GMs keep leaving Ike's prayers unanswered.

Most won't stop until they have it, unless Asher can get to them first.

It was a world of sword and sorcery, but that was a thousand years ago. The last elves live on reservations. Dwarven forges have turned to clockwork and steam.

In a cramped landscape of complicated politics where adventurers are no longer welcome, what are the mighty warriors of the gods even supposed to do? Well, first, they're sent to school. And it all goes downhill from there.

Power of friendship? Getting stronger when enraged? A powerful monster sealed inside you by your father? That wasn't me. I was the arrogant youngster who got punched in the first panels of the shounen manga I was reading. I wouldn't have even remembered his name — if I wasn't stuck in his body.
