With a new job and more questions, she moves from world to world, taking tasks and missions. But why is it that there's this one person in each world who makes her heart go doki-doki?(as described by her System). ****** World 1: Interstellar Setting -- Criminal Human Princess(MC) x Ambitious Alien Princess (FL) World 2:????? World 3:????? ****** 1. Read first, don't let the synopsis discourage you. Because I'm very bad at writing them. 2. I'm still very much new in writing, so cut me some slack while you're reading. 3. There's an overarching plot, so don't worry, it isn't just some meaningless world travel. 4. To prevent burnout, I'll be releasing 3 chapters per week. I might change the schedule as time goes on. 5. You will find plot holes, this is inevitable, because the story's focus is more on the romance progress and not setting/world building. 6. The tags does not necessarily account for all you'll see in the novel, because duh, it's world hopping. 7. The cover isn't mine. It's a screenshot from the Academy's Undercover Professor manga (really good stuff).

The world Jenna once knew was gone, replaced by a chaotic landscape where the undead ruled. Cities, once bustling with traffic and the constant hum of office life, now stood eerily quiet, littered with abandoned cars and half-eaten remains. Skyscrapers loomed over crumbling streets, their windows shattered like jagged teeth in the skyline. Before the apocalypse, Jenna was just another cog in the corporate machine—26 years old, an office worker who blended into the beige walls of her cubicle. She was sharp-witted, sarcastic, and always found a way to inject humour into the soul-crushing monotony of her daily grind. Her dark brown hair was constantly tied in a lazy bun, and her wardrobe consisted of the same three cardigans rotated in and out of existence. She had dreams, sure, but none of them involved surviving a zombie apocalypse, let alone doing it with newly discovered spatial powers. Now, as a newly minted zombie with a strange ability to store objects in a personal pocket dimension, Jenna found herself navigating a ruined world with the same dry humour that once got her through endless office meetings. Only now, she was hoarding supplies instead of spreadsheets—and doing it in style. --- A/N The MC is dumb as f*ck so, if your looking for smart and strong MC. This story is not for you.

The world changed on the day the first Gate appeared. A massive, swirling vortex of energy erupted in the heart of New York City, towering over the skyline. It was unlike anything humanity had ever seen—a shimmering doorway to the unknown, pulsing with a power that seemed to defy the laws of physics. Within days, similar gates began appearing around the globe, from the Amazon rainforest to the Siberian tundra. Scientists were baffled, governments were alarmed, and the military mobilized.

The world quickly learned that beyond these portals lay realms filled with monsters, creatures straight out of ancient legends and nightmares. The monsters were deadly, their strength and ferocity determined by the disaster level of the Gate they guarded. But those who managed to defeat them found treasures of immense value—items of great power and utility, and most importantly, the Crystals.
