When Mio was given a ten-story luxury apartment from her absentee parents, she expected peace, quiet, and maybe a little loneliness.

A supernatural slice-of-life comedy packed with heart, laughter, magic, and a few too many late-night disasters.

If we have an oc, wouldn't it be cool of we also write the back story? And I love writing anyway, so this back story might turn into a new novel in the future 😆 *English is not my native language, I apologize in advance if there are any grammatically errors 🙏 **Since it's an OC story, it is based on Genshin Impact in-game stories and lores, I might put in some theory and the story may change in the future! 🥰
