"Shadow!!!"
The god yelled, its white humanoid form floating through the endless space around it.
Right there, in front of him, was the infamous Shadow himself.
His jet-black suit swarmed with dark mist, a black slime sword held in one hand.
He was standing on top of a platform made from his own shadow, and on that very platform, lined up behind him, were the seven main members of the Shadow Garden, the Seven Shadows.
Grin.
Shadow aimed his blade at the white god.
"You have nowhere to run; the light no longer responds to you; the shadows have been summoned. Would you lay down your life for a chance to glance at it?"
"Damn you, Shadow! You would kill a god! I made this world!" the white god raged.
"I am not of this world."
Shadow slowly raised his blade to the sky.
The white god, knowing what was coming next, became wary, his eyes scanning the surroundings as though he was searching for an escape route.
Then, Shadow's voice came, dim and calm.
"I am atomic."
Those were the final words the god heard before everything in sight exploded, taking out both the god and Shadow simultaneously.
But that wasn't what caught Shadow's attention.
The moment he cast his special ability, he was certain he saw the god open a portal.
After that, all he saw was pure white as he felt his body getting stretched like a rubber band.
An unfamiliar feeling.
Up until the point he fell unconscious.
….
[Congratulations, you have arrived in a new world.]
[Host has been registered.]
[Cid Kagenou.]
His eyes fluttered open.
As soon as he regained consciousness, he immediately sat upright, one hand gripping his face.
'What happened? Did I get sucked into the void?'
Cid glanced to the side, noticing the pink diary that was resting on a small table next to the bed.
It was then he took notice of where he actually was.
No doubt about it, he was in a female's room.
Looking at the pink bedsheets and male superstar posters on the wall, he had to be.
Sigh.
Cid sat with his legs crossed, one hand on his jaw.
'Before I fully regained consciousness, I was sure I heard a voice claiming I entered another world. The god I fought was one with dimension powers; I shouldn't be too surprised if I got sent into another world.'
He continued,
'The question here is, did that bastard also come here with me? He may have used this chance to rest and recuperate his energy, which also means this world isn't safe either.'
Cid snapped his fingers.
"I guess I'll just have to find him."
With a single push, he leaped from the bed, both his feet balanced on the ground.
But as soon as he touched the ground, he found himself standing in front of a tall mirror.
'Oh?'
He was dressed in nightwear, though it wasn't just any kind.
Within the nightwear, or rather, hiding underneath, was a shadowy creature, keeping a close eye on him.
'Interesting, so I am being watched. Strange, I just got here. There hasn't been enough time for me to spread my dominance, not to mention I don't feel any kind of threat from this creature. So is someone using it as a bodyguard?'
[System has completed its analysis.]
[Would you like a breakdown of your current skills?]
'A system, eh? Similar to the novels I read in my former world. I see. Not my best thing, but I guess I can roll with it. Sure, let me have it.'

[Each Coin Rank grants you a chance to pull anyone from the Shadow Garden into this current world.]
Cid folded his arms.
'Now that I think about it, I'm sure Alpha and the rest are probably wondering where I went. They probably still think I'm roleplaying. Bringing them to this world will certainly speed things up for me.'
Just as he was about to utter another word, he sensed someone approaching the door.
Not even a few seconds later, someone entered.
"Ah—you're awake," said Jin-ah, walking into the room, carrying a school bag in one hand.
