Synopsis

The protagonist discovers a new ego within a sword, naming it Elle and experiencing a similar bonding process as with Lou. He receives valuable rewards from a gate collapsing after he exited, including a charm of protection. He then navigates the challenges of being a low-ranked solo player while needing to find more egos to strengthen Elle and Lou. He attends an auction looking for more egos but finds it too expensive and tiring, returning home to his waiting and slightly eccentric companions.
