by fnovelpiaThe time is 23:00 on January 11, 2026.
I was playing a popular FPS game called Battlegrounds like I always do.
After work, it’s all about hobbies. If I didn’t have this, I would have died of high blood pressure because of my boss’s nagging. I thought that guy was going crazy because he kept making a fuss about something like a fish in water because he accidentally added one zero to his ledger.
And this game also needs some fresh updates?
How about adding hunger and thirst, food and water systems?
Wouldn’t that increase the number of variables? I hope it comes out, even if it’s a limited-time event.
Sigh… Let’s stop thinking about useless things and just sleep. Then I can go to work tomorrow.
” Ah.. I wish the Earth would end. ”
I really don’t want to go to work… I want to be a rich unemployed person and just stay at home…
So, 29-year-old man Da-cheon Lee (a virgin) fell into a deep sleep while thinking about such things.
A text message rang loudly in the quiet dawn.
And not just to Idacheon’s cell phone, but to the cell phones of all citizens of the country.
Unidentified projectile. Yes, a nuclear missile was flying towards Korea.
South Korea, not knowing where the nuclear missile would land or what the impact range would be, sent out an emergency disaster text message in the wee hours of the morning, telling all citizens in South Korea to evacuate.
As soon as the text was sent, air raid warnings began to sound across the country.
As if they were desperately hoping that at least one more person would survive.

Wheeing
” Ugh… ”
Ah… what the…
Wheeeing
” Huh…huh..? ”
Wind..? Was it the wind..? Did I.. open the window..?
” Ahh… what is it… ”
Hey, man… sleeping with the window open in the winter… this idiot… he won’t be spending a lot on boiler bills, right..?
” Ah… Ah…? Ah? ”
By the way, what is that voice? Who else but me is…
Suddenly, I came to my senses and looked around.
” Huh? What is it? ”
What is that? There’s no one here, but what is that feminine voice?
My body feels heavy too…
I instinctively placed my hand on my forehead and felt strange about the fact that my bangs were sticking out more than usual.
” Huh? What is this? ”
What is this much hair? I’m definitely balding…?
Huh? Did I just say that with my own voice? But why is my voice tone so high?
” Ah, ah, ahhh, what is it, why is your voice like this? ”
It’s strange. Something is very strange.
I went to the bathroom and checked in the mirror to confirm the identity of the discomfort.
The moment I looked into the mirror like that.
” Who are you? ”
The words just came out of my mouth.
Hair made of silver and waist-length.
Red eyes, a nose and lips in golden balance. A face without a single blemish.
A slim and petite figure, perhaps around 140 cm tall.
And yet, what came out came out okay, and what went in went in… What the fuck is this.
I instinctively slapped my cheek. If this was a dream, I would wake up like this.
” Aah?! What the X! ”
It hurts. It hurts so much. No, is a full-power slap really this painful..? Ouch…
” It’s not a dream…? ”
This is ridiculous. No, this is really ridiculous. What is this?
Does that make sense? No, a perfectly normal adult male suddenly becomes a loli girl who could eat up the entertainment industry?
Huh? Wait..?
” Huh…huh? Huh huh huh? ”
does not exist.
my.
My Johnson…
My partner…
doesn’t exist…
I sat down, dizzy with a deep sense of loss and frustration.
That’s how much of a shock it was to me that it was absent.
” Don’t make me laugh… F*ck, seriously… Ah… ”
Yeah. This kind of content. Was it called TS? I know from reading this kind of novel. This kind of development.
At that time, I and the readers who read it thought this.
Isn’t it a blessing to go from a smelly old man to a high school level loli girl?
But now that I’ve experienced it myself, I know. This isn’t a blessing. It’s a curse.
Am I supposed to live like this..? Going back to school…? Wearing a school uniform skirt and stockings and acting like a girl and going “haha” and “hoho”?
” Woof, slurp.. ”
Just imagining that scene made me feel like I was going to throw up my insides.
X. Don’t go. School. Compulsory education? Do you know? I already graduated from all the schools!
You want me to try that again? As a woman? Absolutely not! In the first place, that!!!!
” Ah…. ”
A thought occurred to me in passing.
My identity.
How do I prove my identity…?
I looked for my ID. Of course, it was still male…
Uh… What should I do..? I’m stateless..? No. Think about it, you bastard. If I use this ID to pretend to be adopted and tell the police that this person is missing…!
….. Will it work..?
Even if it works, the problem is what happens after that. How do I make money? I have to pay rent here…
I sat down again, so confused that I was sitting in the typical M-shape for women, but I didn’t notice it. The confusion was even greater.
After wandering around in confusion for several dozen minutes, I suddenly noticed something strange.
Everything in the house is quiet.
The sound of the boiler running, the sound of the refrigerator running, even the small noises between floors that you usually hear.
Everything was as quiet as a mouse.
There was always noise between floors at this time…? Huh? At this time? What time is it now?
I tried to check the time by touching my phone,
” Huh? Why is it like this? ”
My phone is dead. Is the battery dead?
I tried to charge the battery by plugging in the cord, but it didn’t charge.
No, the outlet didn’t light up before that.
The circuit breaker remains up.
” The power went out..? ”
Why? I bet you paid the money properly. You damn tax thief..
” Oh.. No way.. ”
I went to the bathroom and turned on the water and the gas.
Neither of them comes out…
” What is this…? ”
It’s strange. Everything is really strange.
The water was cut off. The gas was cut off. The electricity was cut off. And then I became a woman.
…..is this really a dream…?
” No, X-shin-ah. Come to your senses. If it was a dream, how would you feel the pain? ”
He touched his cheek, urging himself like that.
It didn’t hurt. Did it subside in the meantime?
Anyway, I got dressed and went out to figure out what the current situation was. I thought I’d stop by a convenience store while I was out.
############
” Huh…? ”
It’s a mess.
It’s literally a total mess.
The three-lane road in front of my house was split open, the guardrails were torn apart, and countless cars were lying around, smashed into each other. Blood and flesh. And corpses.
A dead body crushed under a car.
A corpse that flew far away and was strewn across a broken streetlight.
A corpse frozen in the driver’s seat with its head banged against the steering wheel.
A corpse that had suffered multiple assaults, as if a fight had broken out.
A corpse that appears to have died in agony, vomiting blood.
A corpse that appears to have run away as if being chased by something and then given up on something.
Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse.
Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse.
Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse.
Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse. Corpse.
” Huh…? ”
My head is spinning. And my instincts are telling me not to look at it. This isn’t real.
I tell you again, don’t accept it. This is just some random scenery.
I’m telling you again, this is an accident. You have to report it quickly.
” That.. yeah.. Shi. Report. I have to report. That. Phone, cell phone. Uh, where? ”
I looked around like a broken robot and a phone booth came into view.
A telephone booth destroyed by a dump truck.
and.
An unidentifiable corpse that was presumed to have been inside.
” Ahh …
It’s impossible. I can’t get my mind together. And then this thought occurred to me.
If I stay here, if I stay here, won’t I die like those people?
So run. Keep running. Without thinking. Without even deciding on a destination. Just run.
It appears in the corner of your vision while running.
Collapsed buildings. Cars crashing into stores. Downed streetlights and traffic lights. Countless corpses.
I hope while running and running.
I wish I could meet someone. I wish I could find comfort in the fact that I am not alone in this horrible hell.
It was so horrible that I couldn’t stand it any longer if I was alone. The fear. The terror. It felt like it was going to consume me.
” Please…. Anyone… Please… ”
I don’t know why I’m like this. Is it because I’m a woman and my mentality is weak? Or is it because of all those corpses?
I have never seen so many, so many corpses in my life.
A corpse that looks fine on the outside, but is dead. A corpse that looks like some part of it has been torn off. A corpse whose shape is unrecognizable.
That look. That smell.
It’s so horrible.
I kept running with that thought in mind. Then I saw a person ahead of me.
” Hey… guy! Help me! Please! ”
I approached the person, calling out desperately.
But, it wasn’t a person.
To be exact, it was a person.
” What the…? ”
Hair that was missing in places. A pale, almost earthy complexion. Unfocused eyes. A torn mouth that drooled.
Strangely long fingernails, etc.
It was a person, but it wasn’t the person I knew.
” Huh!? ”
Instinctively, I hold my breath and hide on the side of the road.
Something went wrong.
Even if you were to take drugs, it wouldn’t be like that. It’s like the corpses on the side of the road came back to life.
My hands and feet were shaking. The extreme fear of encountering something like that. The regret of letting that thing know of my presence. The despair of confirming that it wasn’t human. The thought that corpses could come back to life and move like that lingered in my mind.
