The genre of this book is Anko, with well-known works in this category including Goblin Slayer, Diego's FGO Entry, and Fierce Illusion Entry. For more information on Anko and Anchor, you can check out Moegirlpedia.
To explain in my own words, it's like telling a story by rolling dice.
Like the various actions and dialogue options that appear in many games, leading to different branching plots, this book offers a multitude of branches, determining outcomes through dice rolls, and in such a style, it crafts characters, advances the plot, and builds the world.
If described in a more concrete way, it's like a tree diagram, continuously extending from one point to the next, with each point having different branches.
The starting point of this book is "persecuting a Hero."
As mentioned in the first point, due to my personal creative impulse and the randomness of the Anko genre, some of the developments in this work may be unsatisfactory.
With Critical Success and Extreme Failure in place, when I present options and ask the dice what the next development will be, the dice tell me: neither, you need to think of something even worse.
To avoid discomfort that any potential new readers might feel because of unpleasant plot developments, I would like to issue a warning here.
As for the highlights of the story... I'm not sure how to summarize them; I just know I had a lot of fun writing it.
To those who have read it, no spoilers, please.
3.[About the Setting]
The setting of this book is of my own creation, somewhat based on various RPG games and D&D that I've played, but it is primarily original.
I made it up for convenience, including the formulas and values, which were gradually perfected during the writing process, so there may be some inconsistencies and subsequent revisions.
If you notice them, I ask for your understanding and forgiveness.
4.[About the Authenticity of Dice Rolls]
This book was originally a forum thread, using the forum's real-time dice rolls, so there is no question of hiding or rigging the results.
Subsequent dice rolls are generated using GPT, and sometimes the link suffix will be posted at the end of a chapter.
Since providing external links is not allowed, interested people can look up how to access them on their own.
At the same time, because subsequent dice rolls contain a lot of spoiler content, please consider carefully before viewing.

I have way too many drafts, so there's absolutely no need to worry! — That's what I wish I could say.
But in reality, converting forum posts into articles takes up more time than I expected, and it feels lackluster to make no revisions.
And since Anko is more of a hobby for me, the time I can commit is limited.
So I can only maintain an average pace with the updates.
Unless unforeseen circumstances or procrastination arise, the final chapter will be published at 23:34.
As for what to do when I run out of drafts, I'll deal with that when the time comes!
