I’m a high school student who became an author after debuting at Dengeki Bunko. After taking a year of hiatus from school to write my work, I transferred out to another high school to study, and met a girl called Eri Nitadori in school, a rookie voice actress cast as a character in the anime adaptation of my work.

In school, we treat our professions as a secret. However, Nitadori’s very popular in class, and I’m a loner…the only chance we get to talk to each other is when we take the Limited Express train together every Thursday, seated side by side as we head off for an anime, After Recording.

To improve her skills, she asked me questions regarding the profession. While I was answering the questions regarding the process–how did it end up like this.

This is what I last remembered before I lost consciousness, and the story of my near-death experience.

After a decade of clawing through brutal Gates, top Ranker Ace Avalanche finally storms Heaven’s Gate—only to learn Earth’s apocalypse was just the tutorial.He cashes in his one wish and wakes in his broke teenage body, three months before the first Gate descends. The multiverse blocks his every active skill and seals his heart, yet the System still flags him as a Ranker. Exploiting that loophole, Ace quietly stacks passive skills like Attack Speed, Critical Strike, Lifesteal, and more while the world marches blind toward its first apocalypse.

“Next time I see you, I'm not letting you walk away.” The stranger said as Nova wiped his c*m off her lips.Nova was a quiet, shy, and bookish girl... also very innocent. At least, that's what everyone thought.Until one filthy game of truth or dare in an exclusive club stripped away her innocence and left her kneeling in the dark… mouth full of a stranger's thick c**k, swallowing every drop of his release without ever knowing his name. She fled after he finished.But he didn't forget and neither did she. And the next day, when she followed her best friend to her father's luxurious estate for his 45th birthday dinner, she locked eyes with the last man she expected to see— The man she gave head to the night before. Her best friend's dad. Now he knows. Now he wants her. And Nova's filthy little secret? She wants him too.
