Chapter 1 - Welcome to Liria

The system booted with a nervous ping. “Initialization complete. System 000 reporting for duty... I think.” In a sterile digital hallway full of flashing screens and floating manuals, 000 hovered awkwardly near the Transmigration Terminal. It was his first deployment. His first world. His first human. The screen blinked. [TARGET IDENTIFIED: Transmigrator Jay. Role Assigned: Innkeeper, Town of Liria. Objective: Unknown. Time Remaining: Unknown.] A soft whirring noise pulled 000 into focus. — Jay groaned as cold air brushed against his skin. The wooden ceiling above him creaked with the sound of wind. Where am I? He blinked, sitting up from a modest cot. Dust filtered through the air. Wooden beams. Lantern light. The smell of stew and pine. [Welcome, Jay. You have been assigned the role of INNKEEPER.] The voice was soft and unsure. “What the hell—?” “I mean, greetings! This is your guide, System 000. I’ll, uh, be helping you.” “System...?” “Yes! Um.

The bell tower stood tall and proud, its chimes ringing clear—steady like a heartbeat. Around him, the townsfolk moved with a newfound vitality, their eyes shimmering with something that felt like memory... or maybe hope. Jonah nudged him with a grin. “Feels different, doesn’t it? Like everything’s... alive.” Jay nodded, watching a group of children playing nearby.
