"IMPURITY DETECTED. FOR THE SAKE OF A PURE, HUMAN FUTURE, SUPPRESS IT NOW!"

Veteran mercenary Kyle Licht is shot in the head and wakes up in an alternate Earth as an eighteen year old. History now speaks of a clandestine organisation dedicated to suppressing and researching anomalous, reality-impure entities—Impurities—and how they utterly failed at a critical moment.

The veil of secrecy lies in shreds. Impurities exist unhindered across the world, in all their reality-distorting, disaster-causing, atrocious glory. Humanity is locked in a war of attrition against these monsters, seeking any measure that will let them see another day.

So what's a mercenary turned youth to do? Put his new system interface to good use and begin dealing with those Impurities, of course! But what's this? Very Hard difficulty? Random 'gacha' elements for item and unit acquisition? An interface-mandated, mysterious Assistant lurking in the back of his head?

Yeah, this job is looking to be a real bumpy ride...

Feature List:

- A LitRPG inspired by containment fiction such as Lobotomy Corporation and SCP! The system also takes cues from WRPGs such as Fallout and Deus Ex.

- A protagonist who starts off weak in body but sharp in mind. All those years fighting on the battlefield haven't amounted to nothing!

- Cyberpunk, semi-apocalypse setting.

- A potentially life-ruining experience (for the protagonist)

- Gacha hell (also for the protagonist)

NO LONGER BEING UPDATED. WILL BE REWRITTEN SOMETIME IN THE FUTURE.
