All Dave Parson wanted to do was leave an angry one-star review for Life.exe. You know, like a normal person. Instead, he accidentally triggered a universal debugging protocol and became the world's first (and extremely reluctant) reality QA tester. Now the universe is taking his feedback way too seriously. Physics gets "rebalanced" every other Tuesday. Cities rearrange themselves overnight to fix "user experience issues."

Armed with nothing but patch notes that appear in his dreams and help from a suspiciously glitchy tech support agent, Dave needs to figure out how to revoke his universal admin privileges before his next cranky review accidentally turns the solar system into a 404 error. Maybe he should have just downloaded a meditation app instead. The One Star Review That Nearly Ended The World - because sometimes the customer isn't just right, they're catastrophically right. (No developers were harmed in the making of this universe. Yet.)

Facing the imminent danger of a demon invasion, the Prazia kingdom establishes orphanages to uncover hidden talents among its populace.

Reality can be difficult, and Lava is not immune to being a pawn in the plans of others. Features a unique word-based magic system, no skills or levels. ----- Sorry for how slow burning and random the beginning chapters are, I just kind of made up plausible nonsense to keep the story flowing. It wasn't until about ch.23 where inspiration struck and the story really started to pick up speed. The main reason things started so slow is that I don't like writing highly unlikely events to drive plot like an mc saving someone that just happens to be a noble. Keep in mind this has a more realistic theme than most isekai stories, even with power mc is not untouchable and actually has to make difficult choices. Sometimes, reality can be dark. It's also not a wake up as a dragon and then fight endless monsters kind of story either, I felt that was already done too many times and chose to go for a more intrigue and life themed story. This is my first work, and I think it's rather good for a first story. Trying to develop my writing style on this. First chapters might come off as kind of rushed, I didn't spend much time on backstory and what happened to her mother I just kind of rushed mc to her new family and that really came back on me later on in the story.
