"At this rate, I'll win!" The young person yelled.

He was alone in a room one-bedded apartment. The floor was full of plastic bags that reeked of a disgusting smell.

Sometimes the flies would buzz close to his ear, but he didn't really gave any notice to them.

He was occupied with a game on his phone. He looked at the screen, seeming delighted sometimes and angry at other times.

"B-B-BANNED ME!? Fuck this shit!"

In the corner, the young person tossed the phone onto the pile of plastic bags. The plastic sacks protected the phone from breaking upon landing.

He was employing hacks, but it didn't help him win the game.

The boy was very enraged by this. He was engaged in a brand-new multiplayer game.

Develop your personality. Engage in competition with other players in a setting reminiscent of the real world, complete with demon invasion, demon king, and mana discovery.

He employed a variety of hacks, including bullet tracking, magic bullet, and aimbot.

It still didn't assist him reach his desired ending.

"The game's shitty just like novel!"

The game was essentially an adaptation of a novel that had garnered a lot of attention lately for its intricate storytelling, character development, and writing.

He got out of bed and went to get his phone once more. His stomach twisted like jello. His moustache was uncut and short. He was dressed in blue shorts and a white undershirt. His weight was getting close to 100 pounds.

He walked cautiously, taking care not to trip on any of the plastic bags.

Unexpectedly, he trod on a beer bottle that he had been sipping for the last seven days.

Wooohhh...!!!!

He struck his head on the wall as he attempted to regain balance but was unable to do so due to his large belly.

Thud..!

There was a crash, and his vision went blank.

.....

"Ugh... It hurts like hell."

I felt a weird sensation as I got up after my prior crash. I ran a palm softly across the back of my skull.

"...huh? why is my hair do long?"

My strange hair length in my hands caught my attention. I was confused. I stepped out of my crouched position, but my body went the other way as I gave the order.

Behind me, my back met the wall. I experienced inebriation.

"Ugh..."

I opened my eyes slowly to find myself in a strange room.

My mind began to race with questions.

I'm not sure where I am. how did I get here? what is this weird sensation?

I didn't feel like I was in my own body.

I became more aware of my surroundings. a room with a single bed, a desk, and a cabinet. The room contained two doors.

One seemed to lead outside, while the other, I could assume, led to the restroom.

"There should be a mirror in the bathroom."

With the intention of quelling my initial curiosity, I made my way to the restroom door.

I could feel my body experiencing an odd lightness with every stride.

After twisting the knob, I made my way over to the mirror.

I was shocked to see a man in his sixteens' face instead of mine. If it weren't for his thin frame, his features could be considered handsome. His untidy black hair reached his ears. There was a peculiar feeling of loneliness in his black eyes.

The uniform he was wearing was what initially drew my attention. Anywhere, I could recognize this uniform.

I attempted to imagine any kind of scenario that could explain this state of affairs, denying reality. None were present.

I was giving my head a hard scratch while I considered my current situation when I became aware of something in my palm.

A watch...

Not just any watch, though. Although it appeared to be a smartwatch, I had a gut feeling that it wasn't that straightforward.

I made a click on the watch. I was suddenly faced with a holographic vision.
