Chapter 1 - The author

"Thank God everything went as I wanted. Even though my life had to be sacrificed, but at least I'm happy because I can see my world is safe again as before! I'm very happy!" Lucas said with a happy smile.

Not long after, his body slowly turned into a light like the light of a firefly that gradually disappeared.

And now there are no remains of his body. It all disappeared in no time.

"Ah hahaha finally finished my favorite novel. What do you think the reader's reaction will be? Will they be angry with me? Hooh of course it makes me happy because I managed to make the reader drift into my story hehehehe," said Delvin, who is a writer at the same time a student at a reputed university.

Delvin got up from his chair and then he stood in front of the mirror, looking at himself which was very messy like a dirty and smelly crazy person.

"Gosh, even though I haven't paid attention to my body for a day but it's been a mess like this. Hmm but that's okay! At least I can finish my novel smoothly hehehe. Hmm if only my novel story was in the real world or adapted into a film or anime. It must be very exciting because the story is very epic hehehehe," said Delvin who praised himself.

Not long after, his cell phone rang. Delvin glanced at his cell phone then he grabbed it and picked up the phone from one of his close friends.

"Delvin?! are you okay? You haven't been contacted since yesterday, you know, I'm really worried about you!" said Elaina, one of Delvin's close friends and a loyal friend who accompanied him since the second grade of elementary school.

"Ah hahaha Elaina, you're so noisy aren't you? Can't you calm down a little? I just finished my novel. After this I'm going to take a shower and then go out to buy some cooking ingredients. Incidentally the stock of cooking ingredients in my house is running out, so I have to buy it," said Delvin calmly. When Delvin was just saying the words, suddenly...

"I will be waiting for you!" said Elaina who is now sitting at the window of Delvin's room. Seeing this, Delvin was silent then after that he shouted in surprise because Elaina was already at the window of his room.

"Ahhhh Elaina! You always surprise me. Can't you wait outside without having to sit in my bedroom window like this? I haven't showered yet, shame you know!" said Delvin while covering his body which made Elaina silently stare at him. Elaina jumped from the window then she walked to Delvin's towel and threw it at Delvin.

Luckily, Delvin managed to catch the towel.

"Well, take a shower first so that after you shower, we can go straight to the supermarket! I'll tidy up your messy and smelly room while you shower. So hurry up and take a shower," said Elaina who pushed Delvin into the bathroom. Delvin sighed, he took his clothes and then went into the bathroom.

Elaina was silent for a moment staring at Delvin's room which was so messy. She could only shake her head to see her friend who was so lazy at home while he was diligent outside.

"Hu, why is his character so different when he's outside and at home. Luckily he's my friend, otherwise I'd have hit you!" Elaina grumbled irritated with the lazy Delvin. Elaina started tidying up Delvin's room while waiting for Delvin to finish taking a shower.

Thirty minutes later...

Delvin came out of the bathroom with his fragrant body and also with very neat clothes. Delvin looked at Elaina who was now sitting on the bed in his room.

"Why do you take so long to take a bath? I'm just a fast girl!" said Elaine. Hearing this, Delvin smiled faintly while drying his towels on the clothesline on the balcony of his room.

"Of course, because I haven't showered for two days. Now I'm fragrant and tidy! Of course, women will be captivated by my good looks, hehehe," said Delvin which made Elaina throw it with a broom.

"How many more women do you want to charm you? You're really annoying, aren't you! Your attitude looks sweet, nice but you're actually cunning and perverted," said Elaina which made Delvin speechless.

"How can you call me a pervert? What am I really trying to do? I just look presentable, blame the woman who is fascinated by my good looks. Hmm, I'm more interested in fantasy things than romance now! I also want think about my future first because that's the most important thing!" said Delvin who was so excited. Hearing this made Elaina shake her head.

"Never mind! We should just go now, I don't want to keep hearing your excuses," said Elaina as she took her broom and put it in the right place.

"Ha, alright," said Delvin, smiling. Delvin took his wallet along with his cellphone and then he left accompanied by Elaina.

The trip...

It looks like Delvin who is now waiting for the light to turn green for pedestrians. Delvin is now opening his cellphone because he gets quite a lot of notifications from readers who have just read the ending of his story.

When Delvin was engrossed in reading his readers' comments, Elaina suddenly took his hand which made Delvin stare at her.

"Elaina, why are you holding my hand like this?" Delvin asked innocently. Hearing that, Elaina answered briefly.

"So that the women around us, are not interested in you because they think, you are already dating me. It's a pity if they will only be ghosted by you," replied Elaina, which made Delvin offended.

"Heh? Since when did I become ghosting. Boro-boro ghosting wants women, never having a special relationship with a woman. At least it's just a friendship just like you and me now!" said Delvin which made Elaina grin.

"Hehehehe it's okay, I'm just wary of land crocodile men like you," Elaina said briefly which irritated Delvin.

"You damn friend!" its short. Delvin took his hand and put it in his trouser pocket. After that, Delvin re-read his readers' comments. While he was reading, Elaina interrupted again.

"Ah by the way, what are you reading? It seems like it was really fun," asked Elaina innocently.

"I'm reading my readers' comments! They don't accept the ending and intend to execute me," Delvin said briefly which made Elaina surprised to hear it.

"That's too bad!" she said.
