So, apparently removing a chapter apparently refreshes the fanfiction.

...Huh. Go figure.

This doesn't look like a one shot to me ;)

Hurry up and finish recourse, this is great!

So basically, regular shield hero taken to it's logical extreme if the other 3 accepted the fact that they weren't in a game earlier.

Definitely an AU seeing as they were from different versions of Japan in canon, but it's an AU I can get behind.

Does this imply an alternate spirit turtle and kizuna arc?

uwu this is an au i love dearly

I don’t even know where to start. This fic is amazing! I love how well you write this?! This might sounds really weird,I love the way you write and use powerful words on the action parts, and the little details written in every action they do as it flows and your characterization of it that still feels like their canon selves yet Treated as so much less asshole-ish, I just love it so much...

The four heroes ACTUALLY properly fighting together as a team is a dream come true, and to see it written so beautifully— Thank you so much for writing this! ((I had to dig deep for my ffn account just to fav this lol but Yes please AU where the other heroes aren’t as much of a dick to naofumi it’s what they deseve weeps, thank you))

If it is alright to ask here, may I ask if it’s alright for me to draw out a scene from this fic sometime? I wasn’t sure if you had social medias I could contact ahaha, but this fic is making me so emotional, I would love to sometime!

Keep up the good work!

But naofumi had warmth shield?

We have nothing to say because we are simply stunned. This is a good AU fic. A really good one. That's really all that needs to be said. It may have focused a bit too much on Itsuki and Ren, but the things you've written in this and the potential it has should be commended. A personal favourite idea is a between the Linked Legendary Weapons gimmick and attacks, and how each Hero has one partner to help them.

Naofumi and Raphtalia, Motoyasu and Filo, Itsuki and Rishia, Ren and Eclair. We just like this match up so much, even in spite of us not liking the Raphtalia romance in the anime.

Just full commendations all around.

We will be Watching.

-The Joining.

Seeing the four heroes actually fighting together warms my heart. It's okay if this is Ren and Itsuki focused, after all this is just one story compared to the many others which are Naofumi focused. This AU looks interesting! Seeing Ren unlock a curse sword much earlier than expected and seeing the best girls helping the heroes too is cool. As a Ren fan I don't mind if more stories are Ren focused ;) A great one shot! I look forward to more work from you, including the next chapter of Recourse of the Bow Hero XD

Who's gonna cook? Yeah Nao is mom
