Chapter 1

Loop 1

● Day 1 ●

I often read novels.

My hobby is reading books. I basically read anything. Both LNs and literary works, I don’t particularly enjoy them. Actually, I’m not interested in them at all.

I mainly read, but sometimes I write. So, for now, I decided to rewrite a novel that I had written before and post it.

The number of characters weren’t that much.

Only, the PC stopped working.

It stopped reacting to anything.

Just that, but I understood that I made a big mistake.

You can never leave.

I felt that that was said to me.

What should I do?

How can I start over?

Thinking that, I looked around, and a button caught my eye.

Yes, what appeared on the day after I first came here; that red button.

Reset.

A button with that written on it.

You don’t see them much recently but, in old games they used to have reset buttons. When it’s pressed, the game machine turns off after a moment and returns to the opening screen.

Seeing that button, I thought that I was grasping on a straw.

Push it, or don’t push it?

The PC stopped working.

The door won’t open.

There is nothing else that I could do.

I hesitated for a moment, but I removed the cover of the button…

Slowly, with power, I pushed the button.
