"Aaaaa—where the hell am I?"
"Shit… these stupid melons are draining all my energy," I muttered, already exhausted and irritated, as if even gravity in this world was working against me.
A girl trudged into the deeper part of the forest, her arms burdened with a bundle of swords, a shield slung awkwardly against her side, and pieces of armor clanking with every step. The farther she went, the thicker the trees grew, their shadows swallowing her as she disappeared into the dense woods.
Her big boobs were sweating and bouncing.
Her long black hair swayed with each step, catching the light as it slipped between the trees.
That girl was none other than me—Sara Samira.
One week ago, I had been dragged out of my ordinary life and thrown into this strange fantasy world, armed with nothing but confusion, stubbornness, and whatever strength I'd managed to scrape together since then.
It had already been two hours.
Two straight hours of walking, searching, and coming up empty. Valeria had said I could find soul stones somewhere deeper in this forest—but she hadn't mentioned how endless it would feel.
One soul stone sells for one gold coin, she said.
I let out a weak, bitter laugh. "Huuu… right."
All I had to my name was one hundred silvers. Not even close to comfortable. Worse—I wasn't awakened yet. If the academy ever found out, they wouldn't hesitate to kick me out. No discussion. No mercy.
"Aaaaa… shit," I muttered, dragging a hand through my hair. "My life's a mess."
The forest stretched on forever. Thick trees boxed me in, their branches blotting out the sky. Insects buzzed and chirred from every direction, an endless, grating chorus that drilled straight into my head. Every sound felt louder here. Closer.
Exhaustion crept into my limbs. My steps slowed. My eyes burned.
"I'm too sleepy… too tired… too done with everything," I grumbled. "If I find a cave or anything, I'm sleeping."
Leaves suddenly rustled behind.
Flush. Flush.
I froze.
"What the—!"
It felt like my entire body plunged straight into ice water. The shock stole the breath from my lungs, a sharp gasp tearing out of me as my footing vanished.
The moment I turned front, my heart sank.
Darkness.
Absolute, pitch-black darkness. Stone walls pressed in from the left and right, jagged rock looming overhead. The air was damp and heavy, carrying the echo of dripping water. Embedded in the stone around me were small, faintly glowing green crystals, scattered like trapped fireflies.
It looked like a cave.
"Bullshit… where the hell am I?!" I shouted, my voice bouncing back at me in warped echoes.
My dear pussy I just got transported into a cave where I can't even see my boobs.
The darkness swallowed everything below my knees, and panic clawed its way up my throat.
My vision blurred. Warm tears mixed with the cold moisture in the air, slipping down my cheeks.
"Sob… idiot… get it together," I whispered to myself, sniffing hard like that alone might solve everything.
I wiped my eyes on my sleeve and dug into my pack, hands fumbling through straps and pouches in the dark.
"Alright," I muttered, forcing my voice into something that almost sounded confident. "Time to use the Lumen Crystal."
I hesitated, then hissed under my breath, "And if this thing doesn't light up, I'm finding the shady shopkeeper who sold it to me and haunting them for the rest of their life."

A system-like red-black window blinked into existence, its jagged edges pulsing as the words appeared:
{{◇Click to select your item◇}}
I clicked on the Lumen Crystal. Instantly, a cylindrical red object dropped from above, and I caught it just in time with a reflexive grab. Its surface was smooth, almost unnervingly warm, and a small button glowed faintly at its base: ON / OFF.
I pressed the button.
A bright red light erupted, cutting through the surrounding darkness. Shadows shrank and twisted, revealing the cavern around me. The space was enormous—tall and wide enough to fit a dinosaur. The tiny green lights I had noticed earlier swelled into massive, shimmering reservoirs, casting an eerie glow across jagged rock formations.
The air was cool and damp, carrying the faint metallic scent of minerals. I stepped forward, boots crunching on uneven stone, the red light slicing through the darkness like a living thing.
The cave seemed alive. Every shadow and flicker of green and red light hinted at hidden depths, secrets waiting to be uncovered. I headed straight into the cavern, the Lumen Crystal illuminating the path ahead.
"AAAAAAAaaaaaaa… how many miles have I been walking… shit," I muttered, my eyelids growing heavier with each step. Sleep clawed at me, threatening to drag me under.
Through the haze, something bright green caught my eye. A massive crystal, glowing with an almost unnatural light, stood in the center of a vast chamber. The room itself was enormous, and three door-like exits yawned from the walls, dark and silent.
Beside the crystal, a small rectangular wall panel jutted out—simple, unassuming, yet clearly important. Something seemed displayed on it, like it was waiting for me to notice.
I approached slowly, every step echoing lightly across the stone floor, and leaned closer to start reading.
