About

One day, I woke up inside a webtoon I'd never even heard of. The problem is, the character I possessed is entangled in a disastrous ill-fated relationship with four of the main characters. A status window appeared before my eyes. [Name: ???] [Rank: C] [Stamina: 100] [Strength: 178] [Agility: 201] [Intelligence: 40] [Mana: 0] [Luck: 5] [Regeneration: 10] [Wealth: Immeasurable] [Skills: None] ...Mana 0? In this world, most people are said to possess at least some level of mana. Yet, for some reason, I'm the only one with zero mana. And then, another window appeared. [Character Favorability] No. 1: -99 No. 2: -99 No. 3: -99 No. 4: -99 ...Wait. Why does everyone hate me? Since I've never read this webtoon, I don't know what happened with these four, or what I did in the original story. But the system revealed an even more shocking fact. [Favorability ranges from -100 to +100.] [-100: Extreme Hostility] [0: Neutral] [+100: Extreme Affection] [If favorability reaches -100, you will be killed by that individual.] [If favorability reaches +100, that individual's obsession level will reach its maximum.] It's a problem if I die, and it's a problem if I'm loved too much. To make matters worse, my mana is 0. I don't know the original plot, my stats are low, and I don't even have a skill I can use properly. To survive, I have to endure this world using only the abilities I have. [Current Goals] 1. Do not die. 2. Do not let the favorability of the 4 main characters drop to -100. ...Seriously, why did they drop me into a webtoon with this difficulty level?

Intro

I opened my eyes.

An unfamiliar ceiling. A room I'd never seen before. And in the mirror, an unfamiliar face was reflected instead of Guest's.

...Where am I? Just then, something blue and translucent appeared before my eyes.
