That would explain targeting the Invulnerability status. Anyone know the story of Ultima online and Lord British getting assassinated? You can look it up, I think the details were posted on the Wiki page too- XD

“Unique abilities” is an understatement. An admin could probably just force unload (banish?) people from the world.
That’d be concerning, but elevates to terrifying because they’re willing to change things about the “Live” world state. Which means they either don’t care about crashing the process running their brain, or don’t understand that they could.
Lyrestra just looks so … huggable. 😅 Her temple could make a fortune by selling teddy bear-style plushies of her.

I would buy at least one XD

Looking like a job for a team, say maybe an adventurer, a cat monster and a dragon!
Super User has entered the game.
Would not a game administrator be more powerful than a goddess from within the game? So could Elli be concerned that the administrator might rewrite her and greatly limit her powers if he finds out she is after him?
This feels like a Chekhov’s gun – Kaylin wouldn’t mention this if it wasn’t meant to be setting up some form of reveal later related to it. So the reader can know to expect such a tag in the future.
So this supposed Admin character is jumping between multiple (game) worlds. It makes us ask the obvious question of whether they are ‘trapped’ like the other adventurers are, or if they are logging in from the outside, or indeed if they are responsible for the Incident to begin with.
I know it would be incredibly cliche, but there’s another kind of ‘admin’ character that is often depicted as malicious, greedy, overpowered, and responsible for all sorts of things going wrong: a Hacker.
That said – we’ve made it this far into the story without that SERIOUSLY coming up as a consideration… so if that’s the case, it’s been a good slow burn getting here.
