💠 Chapter 1: Only One Reader
(Rain taps softly against the window. The room is dark, the only light coming from a flickering laptop screen. A lone figure stares at the monitor — eyes tired, fingers trembling.)
👤 Liu Shen (murmuring):
— "...Done."
(He hits Enter, and the last line of his novel goes live.)
💭 "Finally. My masterpiece... finished."
(A few seconds pass. He refreshes the page. Nothing.)

💭 "As expected. No one cares."
(He sighs and lets his head fall onto the desk. Rain grows heavier. The clock ticks. Silence, cold and bitter.)
Then… a soft ding.

(Liu Shen lifts his head. His eyes narrow.)
👁️🗨️ "...Huh?"
(He opens the comment section. Only one message is there.)
🗨️
"Do you want to enter an amazing world? 😈"
(He scoffs.)
👤 Liu Shen:
— "Sure. If it's better than this one."
(Suddenly, the screen glitches. A green light bursts from the monitor, flooding the room in a blinding flash.)
👤 Liu Shen (startled):
— "What the hell—?!"
🔊 [Confirmation received. Initiating transfer...]
(Darkness swallows everything.)
(His eyes snap open. Thick fog swirls around jagged mountains. The air is heavy. He's lying on rocky ground, dressed in clothes he's never seen before.)
💭 "This place… it feels familiar. No… it can't be…"
(His breath catches as realization hits.)
💭 "This is the world I wrote about… This is my story!"
🔊 [System online.]
Welcome, Liu Shen. This time…
you're not the writer.
This time… you are the story.
But be warned…
You might not like how it ends. 😏
👤 Liu Shen (whispering):
— "...Oh, sh*t."
