Synopsis

I really should’ve taken the publisher’s employment contract more seriously… Rachel and her best friend Nora never imagined their first job at a publishing company would catapult them into the heart of their favorite fantasy web novel. However, when they’re given the chance to help the enigmatic author complete the tale that had captivated their hearts during their high school days five years after the story's abrupt hiatus left fans in limbo, they seize the opportunity. But what began as an exciting creative endeavor quickly spirals into a quirky, unimaginable adventure when they're whisked away without consent into the very story they long to save. The two must battle the destructive demon lord who betrayed and banished the heroine during the story's original cliffhanger, but something seems amiss. What if the card-carrying man isn’t quite the villain everyone else seems to think he is?
