[Transmigrate into a book | Healing and redemption | Plot-driven | Slow burn | Dark undertones]

On a stormy, rain-soaked night, Chen Mo, a high school sophomore, opened her eyes and fell into the world of a book. The System left her with one mysterious request, then vanished without a trace, leaving her stranded in another world.

She landed at the Wuze Inn under the alias Shisi. After a series of events, she found a suitable new contract holder for a contracted demon and set off for Tiangang Sect.

She traveled across this otherworld, witnessing countless joys and sorrows and forging one bond after another. She thought it was simply a journey of wandering, but beneath the still surface, undercurrents had long been churning. As the sealed truths were gradually revealed, the world began to collapse.

Reader notes:

▶ The heroine seems like a gentle, sweet girl on the outside, but is coolheaded and detached within. She is fiercely protective of her own, has severe psychological trauma, and sharp instincts, yet is exceptionally slow to understand her own feelings and affairs.

▶ Early episodic stories plant clues, with the overt and hidden plotlines interwoven. The worldbuilding takes a major turn later on.

▶ Gentle everyday moments, dark undertones. This is not a conventional wish-fulfillment story, and the pacing is slow, so proceed with care if that bothers you.

▶ There are many characters, factions, and locations, as well as a large cast. If you dislike complicated casts, proceed with care.
