I didn’t like the synopsis that was here before, so I deleted it. However, I can’t think of a new one right now, so I won’t be putting one up for the time being.

As for what I have to say about this—despite the beginning, this isn’t a story about systems or dungeons, at least not in my view. It’s not my intention to write that, despite the obvious nods. This first part isn’t even focused on action, to be honest. I’d wager you could count on the fingers of one hand how many dungeons Hye entered even after 130 chapters.

Portals were an easier way to explain what happens with the monsters, but that wasn’t the original idea. It was something I borrowed from works like *Solo*, for example, but it’s not what I envision happening in that world. Nowadays, I’ve already thought of a way to explain how things really work as I see them—in this case, without portals—but to change that, I’d have to rewrite the entire story, and, well, that would require time—a luxury I don’t have.

I hope you enjoy it, if you decide to give it a chance, of course.

Echoes of Hollow

Sighing, Samantha lets her body collapse onto the sofa. The foul taste still lingers in her mouth, and the stench of the black slime remains burned into her mind. 


"Argh..! How disgusting..." she murmured. No matter how far she gets from the bathroom, for some reason, the smell seems to be following her. 


However, now that her thoughts are clearer than ever, something occurs to her. 


"...Could the pill really have worked...? Even though five days have passed, she still isn't human… there's no telling whether the effect will persist or if nothing will change." 


Leaning her head back against the sofa, she sighed. 


 to run a test just to be sure..." she said, placing one hand over her eyes. "Huh..? But what-?!" 


Moving her hand away from her nose, she quickly understood why the odor was so strong—even though she was no longer in the bathroom. Her entire body seemed to be permeated by a subtle layer of that "thing."
