Xiao Lin You is an ordinary rock musician living in an ordinary world. She can see everyone's life countdown, and has only one year left to live.
One late night, she pushed open the bathroom door...
Instead of warm steam, she was greeted by a half-naked blond man with a cold expression.
Nanami Kento, a salaryman sorcerer, had just finished showering after work. When he opened the door, he found himself in a strange woman's home.
Even more bizarrely, their bathrooms had become a dimensional rift, and their two worlds began physically merging...
His sofa sat beside her record player, and her sunglasses hung next to his suit.
Forced to live together, these two people with wildly different styles turned everyday life into chaos.
Nanami Kento could never like such a headstrong, reckless woman. He'd always imagined having an ordinary kind of lover.
Or rather, he had never even considered romance. It was too much trouble, and certainly not something a sorcerer who risked life and limb should have.
But she was like a whale living in a forest, impossible to ignore.
Nanami Kento still disliked how their plans kept changing, and he disliked losing control. But some things seemed impossible to rein in by sheer willpower.
It was too easy to get lost in the forest.
He couldn't help but sink into it.
In search of a way to stay alive, Xiao Lin You, judged to be a Heavenly Restriction, threw herself headfirst into the world of jujutsu sorcery.
But even as her abilities grew, her life continued to count down.
In the face of death, falling in love was a luxury.
(The female lead really does die, then comes back to life, though her initial resurrection does not restore her to a fully human form. Later on, Nanami becomes an obsessive, deranged widower.)
