Year 282 of the Founding of the Arkansas Empire, Southernmost Capital, Nevastra

***********************

"Shit..."

A young woman in a simple white dress looks at the tattered wooden window of her room, she slowly go to see the view of the world.

She noticed the enticing day of the sunlight— a succulent heat coming from the window that engulfed her body in its warmness, the people steadily preparing and swarming for today's event.

And some people gossiping in a dark cryptic place about the current news of the Empire.

She listened to the current trends of the Empire.

"Do you know? That man was almost beaten to death by some unknown commoners?"

The woman in an old loosened dress, looked at her friends with some kind of pure enjoyment, and mockery— as if she was laughing at the situation of the man she was talking about.

The old woman she was talking to that seems like her friend answered in a matter of fact tone.

"That man? Well, he surely deserved that hell of a beating, he seems to think that this Empire was his plaything, so that beating will serve as a lesson to him. They beat him to almost death afterall."

The two continued to talk about the current situation of the man, as if they were mocking the man, and in its entirety— the nobles.

"Hahahaha, he's beaten to death by commoners, glory for the commoners."

The two ended their talk with this sentence, and in a whispering way of talking.

They might be hanged to death afterall, if they were heard by the knight or guards that were affiliated in some nobles, even those lower ones who have some kind of power.

They both giggled at the end of their talk.

However, the young woman in a soft white dress, still observing the two in her wooden window, listening to the things that they're talking about, and simply gaining familiarity with it, suddenly showed a smile of mystery.

"It seems like it's true. Now I'm pretty sure now... of what I theorized before, suddenly appearing into this place of the unknown."

Working patiently while gathering information about this world, looking at various clues until she managed to get herself a room.

While cautiously observing the strange similarities, the current events and trends that are happening all over the Empire and even the places that she goes to the world that she had before.

Two events made her realize the place she's all along been to.

First, it's the current event, that noble man was beaten up to death by some unknown commoners who ambushed him in the alleys of the Empire.

That noble man was Keizen Al Sundawn, second son of Marquis Sundawn.

It's a pretty big news for people of the Southern part of the Empire, and it immediately spread to all parts of the Southernmost Capital of the Empire, Nevestra.

Being a noble of the capital, especially closest to the Royal Family— it's a story that will immediately bring shame to your family, regardless of the backing that you have.

Second, it's the current event of the Empire, the upcoming entrance examination of the Selvette Academy, the most prestigious academy of the Human World has to offer.

It's the entrance examination that will determine your rank in your life— if you're forever a commoner or someone who will bring wealth and even fame to your family in the Human World.

As these clues managed to reach her ears, she immediately concluded where the hell she was all along.

It's the place that she's pretty familiar with, a place that she always reads about, where she imagines the different structures and architecture of these glorious buildings... in the outside world.

She just imagines it, and through these clues, she manages to obtain the exact information that she's seeking for all this time.

"It looks like I'm transported to that novel, huh?"

Well, she concludes that she was transported to it at first, but without some crucial information and absurdity of the idea, she just cleared her head for the meantime.

It's too absurd to believe in afterall.

But as time went by, she was slowly noticing the similarities it had to the one that she read, from the industrial infrastructures, people that live in this world, the royal-commoner conflict of people, it slowly started to dwindle in her mind.

She might be in that same novel!

And these recent events managed to confirm those thoughts.

Also...

Immediately, she also realized the how fucked up her situation that she was currently in.

It's that novel afterall, a novel named as Please Save the Human World!

A novel that tackles the sufferings of the Humans, and all the other races against the Lord of Darkness, Ethos, and the Dark Side of the Universe in the Universal War.

It's so brutal that all of the characters, including the main character were dead and his loved ones died at the end of the war.

They also had some grotesque and brutal deaths too, which really in a sense, the reason why many readers dropped it due to its plotline and nonsensical deaths of the characters.

It's a novel made to tear your heart apart, to make you cry and even make you have a bad taste in your mouth after reading it— like some sociopath wrote this to torment people and make them sad.

Well, I'm in that same novel, and I'm screwed either way.

In a few years, the Dark Side of the Universe will invade this universe for some unknown reason, and the Universal War will start.

That's why I have to go to the Selvette Academy this time, I want to find something that I need to awaken my powers.

The young girl in white dress looking on the wooden window solemnly walked slowly to the mirror to see herself.

With her beautiful red eyes that shared the redness of the Glamour Moon , her soft pale skin that was captivating to the eyes of the crowd, her small rosy lips with a perfect nose that enhanced her already delicate beauty and her accentuated face , her eyelashes that was as black as the night perfectly harmonized a young girl with beauty like those nobles of the night... and her black dark hair that symbolize something, uncertainty.
