Not satisfied with his life, and waiting for something to happen that could destroy it, Ellis, now twenty-one years old, finally decided against that.

He decided to start the change from himself.

Only. The very next day after he made this decision, Mana Awakening happened globally, and the Twilight System was bestowed upon everyone.

Instead of dwelling on the irony of fate, Ellis was determined to do many things.

But. Did the change stop with that?

No. For him, who had already started deciding his future plans, after getting a taste of what the Twilight System could give, a sudden system message appeared, informing him of gates descending.

Ellis didn’t shrink back at the increasingly chaotic situation, but thought of meeting his family first, before finding a way to make use of this situation.

But suddenly, a gate, seemingly special, appeared inside his house, right in front of him. And he was dragged into it, without even being able to make sense of the situation... or prepare himself.

Now, trapped inside this unknown gate, without anyone to rely on, he could only grit his teeth and move forward.

Will he be able to survive and make it out of this gate, to reunite with his family?

Or will this become the place where all his hopes end?

My Unrestrained Lives

Surrounded by towering shelves of books, wrapped in the quiet scent of paper and worn leather, and bathed in the soft, steady light of the lamps hanging along the walls, the library felt still and warm with thought.

In that hush, the sound of a page turning… light and dry, like a leaf brushing gently across stone, could be heard every now and then.

In this relaxing space, on the ground beside a small pile of books, Ellis sat quietly, reading.

Unfortunately, he couldn't concentrate on the book in his hands like usual.

Silas had gone out since morning… and still hadn't returned.

Her grumbling, yet strangely calming presence… especially when she nagged and tried to persuade him to sit on a chair and read at the table, was, of course, one of the reasons his focus wandered.

This wasn't the first time she had needed to leave him alone, after all.
