I'm a little confused. So is the mc in his fav horror film/game or smt after winning the lottery? Is he originally from a normal world? In this *fictional world* if he's harmed or dies would the same thing happen to his original world? Or did his world turn into a fictional world like ORV? Is it just like playing game or is it a transmigration? It's 3am rn so my brain is kinda in a non-functioning stage... (I had so many questions but I forgor )
The MC (Soleum) was summoned and is trapped in the ghost story world. As the other comment said, the true reason + a lot of the details are huge spoilers from chapter 300+… but it’s not a ‘fake world’, it’s more of an alternate universe where ghost stories are real. The suffering of everyone else is genuine, he can feel pain and if he died he wouldn’t return, he’d just be dead because he’s stuck somewhere thats not his home and can’t go back (yet). His real, original world is not affected by any of this, since they’re separate universes. Hopefully answered without spoiling!











How did a mere character manage to bring the author to her world? Bc she managed to find out she was in a story? If so how? Did the system took pity on OG Edith and notified her abt the novel or smt? How did she knew to call for the author? Wtf is happening??? Does all fictional stories have a system or smt? Srry if i sound dumb it may be due to the fact that it's 3am rn
Nvm, I was too impatient
