A pair of ebony eyes fluttered open, and there was a glazed, misty look in those eyes. The owner of those eyes blinked once more, and lifted their fair, slender hand to clutch their head as they groaned softly.

"My head...it hurts," A soft, feminine voice was heard as they muttered out, squeezing their eyes close. "Where even am I...?"

Opening her eyes once again, the glazed and misty-eyed look gradually disappeared as the woman observed her surroundings. Her eyes, now limpid began to show confusion as she continued glancing around.

There was nothing.

It was simply an empty white space around her, and she looked down, gasping in surprise when she found herself hovering.

"Wha--what is this? Where am I? Why am I flying?"

[ Greetings K7710, we have been waiting for you to awaken. ]

The woman gasped yet again, seeing a sentence written in black plastered across her line of sight. The sentence was uttered by a friendly, female voice.

"...uhm, where am I? All I remember was feeling faint as I walked across the road, and then I was hit by a car and I...flew?"

[ You were hit by a car in your previous world, and died immediately on impact. A tragic death indeed. ]

"Wh-what? I...died? I really...died? How can it...but I still haven't even--" The woman was horrified by the news, her curved eyebrows were furrowed. "Wh-where am I supposed to be now?"

[ Welcome to the Transmigration World System, K7710. You are one of the few individuals who have been selected to participate in the "Novel" program. Feel free to rejoice! My sole purpose is to guide you along this program, please feel free to address me as AI500. ]

The woman, K7710, was speechless.

The administrator didn't wait for K7710 to digest the information, continuing with her barrage.

[ The Transmigration World System will offer you an opportunity to transmigrate your soul into another world, or another dimension. Since you have been selected for the "Novel" section, you will be given the opportunity to transmigrate into an individual in a novel. The system has included a free bonus, where you will be transmigrated into your favourite novel. Hooray! You can rejoice once again! ]

"Uhh...this is just--"

[ Your favourite novel before your passing seems to be "Path to the Supreme God". The system has noted it down, and please be patient while we process the data and select an individual in the story for your soul to transmigrate to! ]

The moment the book name was uttered, the woman's delicate face twisted in disgust.

"Are you kidding me?! That's not my favourite novel, I hate that book! The author is a horrible writer!"

[ Please be patient, K7710. ]

"If this is really true, and I'm being transmigrated, I would rather give this opportunity to someone else!"

[ Please be patient, K7710~ ]

"Hey! Are you listening to me? I don't want to be transmigrated!"

[ Please be patient, K7710! ;) ]

Seeing the same sentence thrice in front of her face, along with AI500 uttering the words in an "adorable" manner, irked K7710 beyond words.
