Edward Smith never asked for adventure. He worked, paid rent, and tried to keep his girlfriend happy - even if she hated how much time he spent grinding through Zenless Zone Zero, the one place he felt alive.
But one night, a storm changes everything. A simple trip to the beach ends in chaos, and when Edward wakes... it's not in his own world. It's in the hollow shattered desert scape of the OuterRing. A place that should only exist on his phone screen.
The faces he once saw as characters now breathe, laugh, and bleed. The game's Hollows are no longer colorful arenas but endless, shifting mazes of danger. And when he catches sight of his reflection - fox ears, a tail, strange glowing eyes - he realizes he's become something else: a Thiren.
Now, Edward must navigate this distorted reality, caught between what he knows and what feels real.
Can he find a way home? Or will he choose to stay in the world he once dreamed of - even if it means losing everything he was?

Zenless Zone Zero: Immortalized (Male Reader Fanfic)
Officials say he doesn't exist. Just a shared ether induced hallucination. But the stories, how they continue to pile up. How could he not be real? Whatever you believe, the stories have become a deeply ingrained part of New Eridu. Everyone's heard at least one person claimed to be saved by him. "You're asking about the Saint? Ah, it's a nice tale. Makes the children feel just a little safer when it comes to the Hollows. I doubt it's true... but we could always use a little more hope." -Kind Old Lady off the Street "Urgh! I don't get what everyone's obsession is with that story! He's not Real! Just a tall tale to make kids sleep a little sounder! If you ask me, they should be focusing on putting that faith into Section 6. They're the real ones going out and saving us!" -Agitated HSO Operative "OMG! Your asking about the Saint? I have just the person for you to talk to. SEN! GET OVER HERE GIRL AND!!! -Excited Sorority Girl "We have absolutely no data or proof that there has ever been or is currently, a Masked Vigilante running into Hollows, Illegally. I must add. To save civilians. No PubSec Officer has every come across any evidence or trace of this so called "hero" having been at any Hollow disasters." -Statement from office of Janus Quarters Captain, Justin Bringer "The Saint? He's my Hero. If he's there, there'll never be a reason to be scared of Hollows!" -Young Girl hugging handmade Saint Doll While it's currently still unknown if the Saint is truly real or not. It is important to not the vastness of New Eridu holds a net public opinion of him. Even ranking high enough in popularity to come close to the Fame of HSO's Section 6.

You better be screwing around with some European model cause im gonna be really upset with your dumbass... Y/N peered over a guard rail, a narrow trail in the snow leading off the slope into the woods, a faint red dusted by the fresh white is barely visible through the dead shrubbery. Y/N hops the rail sliding his way down to the trail below, the red he was a scarf lightly buried alongside a few other random odds and ends like mittens and hats but this only told Y/n somes bag must've fallen open or it was tossed off the road.
