The silence after the Other Ryouhei vanished was thick, almost ceremonial.

  Sera collapsed to her knees, breathing hard.

  I couldn’t stop staring at my hands… still stained with lunar shadows.

  “What did you do exactly?” she asked.

  “I didn’t destroy him. I just… turned him into meaningless text.

  A footnote error no one will ever read.”

  The Library responded with a creak.

  Not of protest… but of approval.

  —

  Enjoying this book? Seek out the original to ensure the author gets credit.

  The shelves began to shift on their own.

  Books whispered.

  The air smelled of fresh ink.

  And then I saw it:

  an entire section labeled “Incomplete Stories” began to change titles.

  > Chapter 12: The Wandering General’s Ambush – Modified.

  Chapter 4: Awakening of the Crystal Hero – Deleted due to inconsistency.

  Chapter 8: Beheading of Extra #9,387 – Revoked.

  My name was there.

  “Sera… this isn’t just a library.

  It’s an editor of the world.”

  —

  At the far end of the hall, a figure emerged.

  Not a person. A living tome.

  Its pages were wings. Its gaze, a red marker.

  > “You have been validated as a minor author.

  You may propose revisions to the narrative.

  Warning: All changes generate nonlinear consequences.”

  The book floated closer.

  > “Would you like to submit your first official revision?”

  —

  I looked at Sera. She was terrified… and fascinated.

  “If this is real,” I said, “we can alter events, prevent deaths… even erase certain heroes.”

  “Or make everything worse,” she added.

  “Probably. But for the first time, we hold the pen.”

  I reached out toward the tome.

  “Yes. I want to rewrite something.”

  The book unfolded a blank page before me.

  > “Title of the revision: _______________________”

  I thought of everything I’d seen.

  And I wrote:

  “Revision of Event: The Night No One Heard Sera Veyl.”
