Every time I go onto Wattpad, and I look at this book, if one could even generously label it as such, and I realize that it has become a testament and physical example to my growth as a writer and creator. I made this when I was younger in 2020 or 2021 and it honestly surprises me my evolution in this chapters to the writing I make now. 

This story, in my eyes and many others, is so unbelievably subpar, a cringe-worthy testament to my early attempts at weaving narratives and my humor back in my early days. The thought often crosses my mind whenever I just see the description: Should I take it down, place it to the archives of forgotten tales? Should I delete it forever and start anew? 

Yet, I refrain from touching this book, and there are two compelling reasons for my hesitance and saving this book from journeying to the great abyss of nonexistance.

Firstly, against all odds, amidst the imperfections that I, as the creator, am acutely aware of, there seems to be an audience that genuinely enjoys the story, even in its raw, unpolished, and unedited state. The feedback, comments, and the engagement from readers make my day so much better whenever I look through my notifications.

Secondly, keeping this story intact serves as a reflective tool to me and hopefully others. It acts as a time capsule, capturing the essence of my early creative endeavors and younger self that bled her fingers out to write each chapter, thinking late at night what to put next and acting on whim after whim. Each chapter, however cringe-inducing, symbolizes a step in the journey, a milestone marking my progress as a writer. It's a tangible record of my struggles, mistakes, and the sheer determination to write despite the evident flaws and prove to myself and others that I am so much better then I was before, and that everyone has to start somewhere. Trial and error, fumbling narratives, and awkward prose aside, I made something. That makes me proud of my past self, no matter how terrible it was.

However, it's impossible to ignore my want to break free from the only recognition I have with my associations with this terrible writing. 

It's been a while since I committed to a consistent storyline on this platform. After a prolonged hiatus from creating stories, The countless attempts to embark on new literary ventures after each announcement, each one fizzling out after the first few chapters, the books that are all in my digital archives. 

I have written a new book. The excitement fills me with the confidence that this time, it's different. This isn't just another attempt; it's a commitment, a pact with myself to see a story through, a story that I genuinely believe holds promise.

For those who find joy and sadness in the worlds of Jujutsu Kaisen and even Mob Psycho 100, I extend an invitation to embark on this new literary journey with me. The storyline, mostly done and carefully outlined, has found its form, with ten chapters already breathing life into the narrative in my drafts. I have a genuine belief that this story possesses potential.

Your interest would mean the world to me, a writer stepping out of the shadows of past attempts, hoping that this work resonates with the same passion that lingers around my poor excuse of a book. There's nothing I hate more than an idea being left and forgotten because of the lack of motivation I get from lack of engagement .Your presence and support mean more than words can express, for it is through readers authors like me can find purpose and significance beyond the confines of an author's imagination.

To those who have supported my previous works, I extend my gratitude. Your encouragement has been the catalyst for my writing journey, and I hope that my future creations will invoke the same passion and engagement that this book has.
