The Reader of the Beginning and Climax
"The world has gained a new Reader."
After reading the final chapter of a mysterious book, Yoo Jihwan awakens in a death game arena, where survival is the only rule. But unlike the other participants, he soon realizes the terrifying truth—this world is a book, and everyone else is just a character within it.
Marked as "The Reader of the Beginning," Jihwan discovers a system that allows him to level up by reading and surviving stories. Each book he enters is a new battlefield, filled with monsters, betrayals, and mind-breaking trials. But what awaits him at the end of it all?
Beyond the wall dividing The Beginning and The Climax, an eternal entity watches in silence. The one who reaches the Climax is doomed to take its place, trapped in an endless cycle. And as Jihwan pieces together the truth, he realizes something horrifying—he was always destined to become the next Reader of the Climax.
But fate can be rewritten.
Armed with his wit, strategy, and the will to defy destiny, Jihwan embarks on a journey to break free from the inescapable loop of Readers. With powerful enemies, forgotten memories, and a world that resets upon failure, can he escape the fate that awaits him at the Climax?
Or will he become just another forgotten Reader in the endless story?
