Follow Kairi Izumi—a quiet, eccentric, and somewhat conspicuous girl— who never felt like anything but an NPC in a story. Working behind the scenes, unnoticed by others had always been part of her daily life, dwelling with medicine and toxins. So, it's not surprising that she wasn't tad attractive according to others. That is, until one day... that guy, he confessed to me. Wait a minute—doesn't that mean I'm a heroine now? Hang on, how is that even possible?I’m just a girl from a small village who likes to help others. I don’t particularly stand out, and compared to the other girls, I’m not even that attractive. And so, a question lingers, driving the unfolding of this dumbfounding narrative forward: Wait, what do you mean I got reincarnated to be a heroine? That's weird because usually a heroine is not strong let alone smart - they are usually dumb, cute and pretty. Definitely not me. I mean, how is that possible? Me? Heroine? No way!

In the charming city of Paris, whispers of a mysterious disappearance have shrouded the once-romantic community in fear. The silence holds the key to unlocking the truth, but only the silent witness knows the dark secrets that lie beneath the surface.

Having no magic in a world filled with it is difficult. However, having been born in a supportive family and village is helpful, especially when they are all abnormally strong. This fact makes Nikes life much easier as she is taught how to use the sword from those people. Of course, like all stories, her life changes after a single day. Note: I don't really like working with AI for images, but the cover I wanted was the cover of a song album which is where I got the entire idea of this story from, so I decided to suck it up and use AI. Also, any and all criticism of this story is welcomed!
