A pop-up event for some ‘modern fantasy’ media I loved so much that I even took a precious day off work to attend.
On that day, I ended up transmigrating as a character in that very fantasy world.
As none other than a newly hired employee at a famous large corporation!
A dream job with great benefits, an excellent salary, and even kind and competent bosses.
I’m using the information I know about the world to rise through the ranks at lightning speed!
Am I happy, you ask?
Please, just let me go home. I’m begging you.

3) Cynical "Well, if they had enough sense to understand properly, they wouldn’t have been assigned to a team like that, would they? Why do they even bother applying to jobs like this and being a burden? Every time it’s just… lunatics, cultists, criminals…"

2) Angry / Condescending "You morons. If one eye is all it takes to escape, just do it already! It said we could get off the train! Well, it’s hard to expect that kind of reasoning from someone who expects others to take responsibility for their own survival."
