This Japanese Elden Ring Novel Will Focus on the Real Life Players

Kadokawa will publish an Elden Ring-themed novel featuring Japanese office workers who actively play the game in late March 2024.

Kadokawa announced that it will publish a new Elden Ring novel in Japan. The Japanese novel Shigoto ga Owareba, Ano Shukufuku de will also have an official English title: See You At That Grace After Work.

The novel will tell the story of a Japanese office worker who enjoys playing Elden Ring solo at home and reading the game’s guide websites during office break time. When a senior colleague who also plays the game discovers this worker’s hobbies, the two will start interacting with each other more frequently in both real-life work and the Elden Ring game.

If the novel doesn't end with them banging while Vaati's lore videos run in the background, I'll riot.

The hardest fight the average Souls fan will ever face: interpersonal relationships.

They have a sense of humour...



though inbreeding is rarely the way forward. at least someone has to bring some money home.

The ultimate nerd fantasy: getting female attention + getting laid for your encyclopedic Souls-like knowledge and mastery.

And left the room.

Honestly watching Shangri la Frontier it feels like the characters are playing Elden Ring.

 

[Sacred]

Ugh.. go touch grace.

"hey babe, I solo'd Melania Lv1 with fists only."

 

[TheDuskwalker]

Well I know how this ends

 

[Danjin44]

I do like the cover art, seeing Erdtree from office window.

 

[IAmRei]

Jugding by her hair, i wish she wont be reincarnated as malenia and male mc will be the one who supposed to kill her ... Oh wait, this is supposed to be romance

 

[Hudo]

This reminds me of Square Enix' FF14 series that also dealt with the players' lives outside the game. Not sure if there was romanced involved in that as well, tho.
