Random dude from Earth lands in Lungmen, selling things that may or may not be magical. The cart is normal, don't think too hard on it. It's not an SCP, trust me, bro.

Character Selection Rant New
So I just wanna explain my thought process when I was picking Beast Gudako since may of y'all seem surprised. No reason, just wanted to rant if you guys are interested in hearing me out.

You see, when I was picking characters for Arno to have onboard the Cart (like for Niko's case), I don't like the idea of just yoinking characters from out of nowhere. I know this sounds weird for Arno, but he's my OC; I can do whatever I want with him :D. Anyway, I didn't wanna just grab a character that wass still relevant to their story, or still had people that still had something to go back to. This is because I don't want to really leave characters like Niko or Beast Gudako to have unfinished business from where I picked them up, only to leave that unresolved and potentially doom their world.

For example, if I just grabbed Ruby Rose, Sora or Ichigo right before the BBEG came around, I'd end up dooming their world. This, in turn, makes them less cooperative and have that desire to go home. I want the people who will join the cart to be permanent residents without having to hamfist their reasons of being isekai'd.

"Oh? Your entire guild is depending on you to defeat Acnologia and Zeref? Sorry, Natsu. You'll be selling food now."

I was looking for characters that had already played their roles in the story that had nothing left to go home to, so that I can give them a fresh new start in a brand new world that doesn't know them. Believe it or not, I only finished Kingdom Hearts 3 last month, so the slotted guard that I was going to implement was actually going to be Aqua; the Keyblade Guardian that was stuck in the Realm of Darkness. I didn't know that she was gonna be saved until very recently, so I had to go look for someone new, until I stumbled upon a picture of Grand Beast Gudako.

I had plenty of other characters in mind that I was thinking of doing just for fun and simply because I like them. These included:

1. Sylveon or Umbreon
2. Summer Rose
3. Pucca (yes, THAT Pucca but a bit aged up)
4. Leonardo Da Vinci Lily
5. 2B and 9S (yes, together)


But I wanted to try something new and fun since I actually had already cooked up a theory behind Beast Gudako on her origins. That is why she became the designated guard. I also didn't want the fic to just be waifu bait in an already waifu bait game lol. Just me trying to be unique. Thank you for listening.
