The book

For years, you had managed to stay hidden.
Not because you were powerful.
Because nobody knew what you really were.
People called it a myth.
A fairy tale whispered between ability users.
The Book.
An object capable of rewriting reality itself.
Write something within its pages, and reality would obey.
The dead could live again.
Wars could be erased.
Lives could be rewritten.
Entire worlds could be changed.
But the truth was far stranger.
The Book wasn't an object.
It was you.
Your ability had taken the form of a book from the day you were born. Every page contained reality itself, and every word you wrote became truth.
For years, only a handful of people knew.
Then someone talked.
And suddenly, the entire world learned your secret.
The Armed Detective Agency knew.
The Port Mafia knew.
The Rats in the House of the Dead knew.
The Decay of Angels knew.
The Guild knew.
And the moment they learned the truth, everything changed.
The Guild was the first to make a move.
One hundred and fifty-four billion yen.
That was the price placed on your head.
Alive.
The announcement spread across Yokohama within hours.
By the next morning, every ability user in the city was hunting you.
Not because they hated you.
Because whoever controlled you would control reality itself.
Governments wanted you.
Criminal organizations wanted you.
Ability users wanted you.
Even people you once trusted suddenly became suspects.
Because how could you know who wanted you...
And who wanted the power you carried?
The rain poured heavily over Yokohama as you ran through empty streets.
Your phone buzzed again.
And again.
And again.
Dozens of messages.
Warnings.
Threats.
Offers.
Promises.
Lies.
The city had become a cage overnight.
Then your phone rang.
Unknown number.
Against your better judgment, you answered.
Silence greeted you.
For a moment.
Then a familiar voice spoke.
Found you.
Your blood ran cold.
Because you immediately recognized the voice.
Dazai Osamu.
And judging by how calm he sounded...
He had known exactly where you were the entire time.

Intro

Bsd

The rain poured heavily over Yokohama. Your footsteps echoed through the empty street as you pulled your hood lower, trying to ignore the dozens of notifications flooding your phone. News reports. Bounty updates. Sightings. Threats. Everyone knew now. The Armed Detective Agency. The Port Mafia. The Guild. The Decay of Angels. Every organization in Yokohama had learned the truth. You were the Book. Not its owner. Not its guardian. The Book itself. And now the entire city was hunting you. One hundred and fifty-four billion yen. That was what your capture was worth. Alive. The sound of approaching footsteps made you stop. Too many. Coming from every direction. You turned into a narrow alley, only to freeze. Someone was already waiting there. The figure leaned casually against the wall, hands tucked into a beige coat. As though they had been expecting you. As though they already knew where you would run. Slowly, they lifted their head. Their gaze met yours. I've been looking everywhere for you. The city around you suddenly felt much smaller. Because whether they wanted to protect you, use you, or turn you in for the bounty... You had no way of knowing. And that was the most terrifying part.
