Noah Reed hated three things more than anything else.

Mondays.Overtime.And losing to trash players online.

Right now, he was dealing with all three at once.

The cheap LED light above his desk buzzed softly, casting a dull glow over half-finished paperwork. His coworkers had already gone home, leaving Noah alone in the office with nothing but the hum of computers and the crushing realization that he was still here.

Again.

"Just my luck…" he muttered, clicking through spreadsheets. "Twenty-five years old and I'm already a corporate zombie."

Noah wasn't ugly. In fact, he was fairly good-looking—messy black hair, sharp eyes, decent build. But looks didn't help much when your life was stuck on repeat. Work. Eat. Sleep. Repeat.

Friends? Yeah, a few.Love life? Barely.

He'd been on exactly two dates in the past year. One ghosted him. The other told him he was "nice but boring."

That one stung more than he liked to admit.

By the time he finally left work, the sky was already dark. Neon lights from the city reflected off wet pavement as he walked home, hands shoved into his jacket pockets.

Another day survived.Another day wasted.

His small apartment greeted him with silence.

Noah kicked off his shoes, tossed his jacket aside, and collapsed into his gaming chair like a man returning to his throne. The PC booted up with a familiar hum, and soon he was logged into his favorite online multiplayer game.

This was his escape.

No bosses yelling.No deadlines.Just competition.

At least here, he mattered.

The match loaded. Five versus five. Ranked.

"Alright… let's go," Noah muttered, cracking his knuckles.

Ten minutes later, things had gone to hell.

His team was feeding kills like idiots, and the enemy squad was playing like they were hopped up on caffeine and ego.

The chat exploded.

[Enemy_King]: lol trash team[Enemy_King]: this guy mid is dogshit[Enemy_King]: uninstall noob

Noah's jaw tightened.

"Yeah? Keep talking," he muttered, fingers flying across the keyboard.

[Noah_Reed]: funny coming from someone who needs four people to win[Noah_Reed]: try playing without getting carried

More messages poured in.

Insults.Laughing emojis.More trash talk.

Noah felt that familiar heat in his chest. It wasn't just about the game—it was everything. Work. Life. Being ignored. Being average.

He typed again.

[Noah_Reed]: you know what? even the universe couldn't stop me from beating you next time[Noah_Reed]: gods, fate, whatever—bring it on

The moment he hit Enter, the screen froze.

"...Huh?"

The music cut out. The characters stopped moving. The chat box glitched, lines of distorted symbols scrolling wildly.

Then everything went black.

A single message appeared in the center of the screen.

"You seem dissatisfied with your reality."

Noah stared.

"…What kind of hacker joke is this?"

Another line appeared.

"Your boredom has been acknowledged.""Would you like a better world?"

Two options appeared beneath it.

YESNO

Noah snorted.

"Yeah right. Like I wouldn't."

He clicked YES.

The screen shattered like glass.

The room vanished.

Noah felt weightless, as if the world had let go of him. His stomach lurched as light and darkness folded into one another. Colors he had no names for twisted around him.

"WHAT THE HELL—?!"

Then, suddenly, it stopped.

Noah found himself floating in a vast, endless space filled with glowing doors. Thousands. Millions. Each one shimmering with a different energy.

Names were carved into them.

NarutoMarvelDCFateHigh School DxDUnknown Worlds

His breath caught.

"This… this is some kind of joke, right?"

A calm, amused voice echoed around him.

"No joke, Noah Reed."

A figure formed before him—neither man nor woman, made of shifting light.

"You were not chosen because you are special.You were chosen because you were bored enough to ask for more."

Noah swallowed.

"So… I'm not dead?"

"Correct. You simply stepped outside your reality."

The figure gestured to the doors.

"You may travel between worlds.Gain powers.Form bonds.Rewrite yourself."

A small glowing symbol burned itself into Noah's hand.

Multiversal Wanderer — Activated

"Welcome to your new life."

Noah slowly smiled.

"…Guess my luck finally changed."

One door glowed brighter than the rest.

And without hesitation—

Noah stepped through.
