◆Manga adaptation available on Manga BANG! & Comic Seymour! ◆Book version available from Overlap Novels (3 volumes total). Nagai Kyūji, who took early retirement from his game company, enters the world of 'Next Stage Online' under the name Kyūji. He wishes to be a vanguard, but his weakened reflexes prevent him from dodging attacks, so he gives up. He settles on the rearguard class 'Archer', and then he thinks. "In the world of a VRMMO with a wide field, isn't it the strongest to attack from a position where you won't be counterattacked?" This is the leisurely adventure log of an uncle who grips his bow and maxes out his range to prove his theory and enjoy his second life. *Also posted on Kakuyomu.
