Rikuya Hiroto was a young, unpopular author-crushed by life with no friends, no family, no money, and no sense of purpose. One day, he finally wishes for an end... and gets one. But death isn't the end. Rikuya awakens inside one of his own unfinished stories-not as the hero, but as an NPC. His very existence begins to distort the narrative, throwing the world off course and forcing him to step into roles just to keep the story from collapsing.
