    I had almost expected the ancient civilization that the opening lore dump was talking about to be Earth. The whole driving force of this story is how the MC is trying to get back to Earth. It would have been a great twist to find out he was there the whole time, just far in the future.

      The ancient civilization gave me Dimension W flashbacks due to the resource exploitation and backlash of said decision.

      I’m interested in seeing what direction the author takes as usually most isekai authors takes one of two directions:

      1. The protagonist is unable to return to their previous world and must decide how they want to live their new lives.
      2. [Rare] The protagonist returns.
