Synopsis
Dolores is a lucky girl with a high-level avatar in a very popular game. She did not level it up; she got it through some fortunate circumstances. She is not interested in fighting and levelling; all she wants is to have some fun and follow her own fantasies.
If only there would not be all those idiots who intend to kill her, capture her, or simply use her. And those flaws in the game!
Wait, what? Those pesky game characters now appear in the real world? And they can do magic? How did this happen?
Adding to her troubles, her crush does not even look at her.
As Dolores tries only to survive and hide between 'normal' people, she encounters stranger and stranger things that force her hand and, in the end, she has the answers to a lot of questions.
It is a slow-developing story with some dark, dystopian elements in it . I had a lot of fun writing it and hope to share it, if you also enjoy it. On the other hand, putting it in an acceptable form requires much work and energy. I intend to bring it to its end and not let it unfinished. I hate it when I encounter unfinished stories, so I understand the feeling.
This is not a classical isekai story.
There is travel between the two worlds, and the game world seems to be so very real... well, this is one plot of the story.
This is not an MMORP game story.
Part of the action happens inside a game world, but it is treated as a real world.
I try to update on a weekly basis, at least Wednesday and Friday, with additional bonus chapters as time and energy allow.

Yolanda gracefully allowed me to use her dark fairy as cover.
There are many more beautiful works of art to be discovered at her site:

Additional Grammar Trigger Warning:
As a non-native speaker, I do my best. Unfortunately, this is not enough for people with a low tolerance for warped sentences and... they may want to skip the story :(
Well, you have been warned :)
I did rework several chapters. I appreciate it when a reader points out chapters that needs rework. That may spare a follow-up reader some pain and helps me understand where my English grammar problems lie.

We thought we made the best game in Earth's history
We thought we made the best interfaces ever seen
We thought we made it - lifelike
But it far exceeded our expectations.
Dolores, I hope you're happy now.
I hope you're alive now...
Spoiler alert...
To address some of the critique the story has received, I have to give more information.
1) The MC does return to her world in chapter sixty or so
2) The MC is not very concerned about being isekaied - should be explained after chapter sixty - the MC in the first sixty chapters is but a copy of the real person that was designed to play the game for her when she is logged out. It should not care at all about being isekaied, that she did was an error.
3) The virtual world is not virtual at all. How that came to be will be explained in chapter two hundred fifty or so.
