Before I woke up, I had a dream about the end of the world. At first, it felt like a vivid nightmare that left me shaken. But as I slowly woke up, I realized that the dream was the pre-ending scene of my own novel. I am Zio Varrez, an unnamed character in my own book, and to my disappointment, an extra. As I lived in my novel's world, I couldn't help but feel that my existence was meaningless. But what made it worse was the fact that the ending of my book was the end of the world - a bad ending. I knew I had to do something to become strong enough to change the world's fate, even if it meant altering the story I once knew completely. Little did I know, there was more to this world than I realized, and the journey I was about to embark on would uncover secrets that I never even imagined. "I thought I knew everything about the world, but as I lived and experienced it, I realized there was so much more to it than I ever imagined." === Daily update! === Author note: The story is going on rather slow pace, expect the boredom for the early 60 chapters

The A-rank hero laughed loudly. So loud that even the snow made a rumbling sound. After hearing that, he shut his mouth immediately.
That was a good choice, because who wants an avalanche after the villain's surprise appearance?
"It's… nothing. Anyway, sir, can you help us? Our friend was…"
"Ah, that girl, she's the daughter of Andi Nova, right?"
Jihan nodded.
As he heard that, he fell deep in thought–a creepy thought.
'Hoho, the heir of Nova guild… If I can have her… then… hehe…'
His companion realized what he was thinking about judging from his face, so she stepped on his feet.
"Ouch! What?!" he shouted.
