A New World?[/color][/sub] [hr][/center] [indent]You’ve heard the story. A person of poor luck gets summoned to another world when they died long before their time.

A freak accident on the road in Toyama–the impact of steel meeting steel–and her entire life at Irokawa Electronics seemed to be up in the air.

Her amber eyes were paired with a soft, inquisitive expression. Her hair was frayed, barely brushed, and a halo was adorned over her head. Her hands tightly gripped a clipboard as she looked down at the blonde woman. [color=EF2F3F]“Finally. You’re awake.”[/color] An unamused, impatient sigh.
