Synopsis

Haru Tadashima is done being a hopeless romantic.
No dating life, no prospects, and fully ready for truck-kun to isekai him into greatness — until, on the way to the station, he sees the impossible.

An elf.

No one else can see her.

Beautiful and mesmerizing, the dream-like girl captures Haru’s heart at first sight. But as he grows closer to her, he begins to realize that an otherworlder appearing on Earth is not a miracle — it’s a warning.

The fantasy he longed for is far darker than he ever imagined, and the ordinary life he’s lived is far too fragile to keep its lies hidden.

In a world filled with otherworlders, dark principalities, and self-proclaimed heroes of justice… can love survive?

Or was it always just a hopeless fantasy?

Note from author

Rahhh!!!
A bit late to the competition, but I’m going to do my best to give you all the best story possible.

This is my first ever competition entry, and since I’m starting late, I can’t afford to take any breaks. Expect — No! — Demand a new chapter every day until the end of the competition.

This story can be rather horrific at times (especially in Chapter 0 — that’s the darkest it’s going to get, trust me). But at its core, it’s a story about love, hope, and personal growth, with plenty of fun character moments and epic action scenes sprinkled throughout.

As per the competition’s rules, I’ll be aiming to complete the first arc: Midnight Glory.
It will be a complete story on its own, with room to grow into something more if you all enjoy it as much as I do.

I’ll stop rambling now — hope you enjoy the story. Any reviews, opinions, or theories are more than welcome, and I’ll do my best to respond!

Till next time,
— Joshua Tobun
