Dragon Raja: The Hapless Boy's Rebooted Life

Lu Mingfei jolted awake to find himself slumped over his desk in his senior-year classroom, drool still hanging from the corner of his mouth. Chen Wenwen passed by him, her hair brushing the open math test on his desk.

He instinctively felt for his student ID in his pocket. The gold-embossed Cassell College insignia was still there, even faintly warm. Lu Mingfei knew those terrifying memories he'd forgotten were real: Nono would ride a wedding car toward the Three Gorges Dam, and Erii's doll would eventually sink into Tokyo Bay.
