Ten minutes before the death of the famous writer known as "Luo Tianque" was officially confirmed—
before her consciousness truly faded—
she believed her life had been, from beginning to end, a complete tragedy.
Luo Tianque. Female. Nineteen years old. Disabled—an acquired disability.
She once had a happy, complete family. But when she was sixteen and the whole family went out on a trip, an accident happened—a car crash. Her parents, seated in the front, died on the spot.
Luo Tianque, in the back seat, survived only by clinging to life after an amputation.
From that moment on, her life was bound to a wheelchair.
She tried to regain the meaning of her existence through reading… but the more books she read, the less she seemed able to live well. In the end, she shut herself at home,
trying to find the feeling of being acknowledged through "writing" and "drawing."
She succeeded.
And yet, she failed just the same.
When she finally started earning some稿费—some modest author fees—Luo Tianque was doxxed by an extremist fan. Her personal information was exposed. Then the entire internet learned she was a girl confined to a wheelchair. Her looks made her go explosively viral, drawing even more attention.
People began to show pity—sometimes intentional, sometimes not.
No one cared what she wrote anymore.
All the abuse revolved around one thing: "selling misery."
[I think what she writes is dogshit. She's only famous because people pity her crippled legs and she's got a pretty face.]
[I like your comment. Remember to turn off your DMs.]
[Doesn't anyone think Luo Tianque's writing is genuinely awful? I don't even know where her fans came from.]
"…"
Looking at those comments, Miss Luo Tianque—sitting in her wheelchair—pulled her lips into a mocking, sarcastic expression.
Snow drifted down in winter, settling on her legs that she could no longer feel.
She stopped at the roadside, waiting for the traffic light. One harsh glare after another flashed through her eyes. She looked up at the white snow in the sky and said:
"I'm really… so sick of this…"
"Heavens—anything is fine. Just let me leave this place," she said.
Suddenly, another burst of light stabbed into her eyes.
She froze.
All she could do was watch as that light drew closer and closer—
a piercing horn tore through the entire street, and a concrete-laden truck came charging like a beast, unstoppable, barreling straight toward the girl.
"…Hah?"
Miss Luo Tianque stared at the oncoming truck. She knew she couldn't resist it—
and yet she still let out a breathy "hah."
That was the last sentence of her life.
...
...
October 11th, 2011.
On the outskirts of Tokyo, the autumn wind carried sunlight that was still faintly warm.
A girl noticed by that sunlight stared blankly into the mirror, the tail behind her swishing back and forth.
"Bro… isn't this kind of ridiculous?"
Fūka Shirayuki finally lowered the makeup mirror, twitched the corner of her mouth, and said the line in fluent Chinese.
After who-knew-how-many deep breaths, she barely managed to steady her mind and accept the truth:
One day, she could actually become a beautiful girl.
…Wait, then does that mean if you stay a virgin until thirty you can still become a grand wizard?
Yeah. Off track.
Let's整理一下现状—sum up the situation.
What happened to her could be explained with just two words:
Transmigration.
That merciless hundred-ton truck had smashed the former Luo Tianque into "Rebecca-chan," then shoved her soul into another world—into the body of the current Fūka Shirayuki.
As a novelist, Fūka Shirayuki had written openings like this before. Readers loved it, editors approved it—
but she had never imagined that one day she'd transmigrate the way those protagonists did in the stories!
She rubbed her aching temples and let out another deep breath.
As she gradually absorbed the original Fūka Shirayuki's memories, she slowly recalled the family background.
Fūka Shirayuki—
Female. Seventeen years old. A mutant type.
An Uma Musume.
She had a younger sister named Fūka Chiori—fifteen years old. Not an Uma Musume. A normal human.
(In the world setting of Uma Musume, even if both parents are human, there's still a chance a child will be born as an Uma Musume or as a human—so overall society remains absolutely peaceful.)
"…Wow."
Fūka Shirayuki exclaimed with zero emotion.
So she'd actually transmigrated… and got the classic "main character" package too: not only mutated—
To summarize simply: both parents dead, no money, no house—only a little sister.
When she was little, the original Fūka Shirayuki had a desire to run.
She wanted to enter the most sacred, highest place for Uma Musume: Tracen Academy, becoming one of those dazzling figures on screen.
Her parents had wholeheartedly supported her, wanting to lift her up on their shoulders and raise her higher.
But life didn't cooperate.
When Fūka Shirayuki was nine, she only managed some decent results in local youth races—and her parents soon fell gravely ill one after another… unable to work anymore, needing medicine, the family conditions worsening day by day. Until, at age twelve, her father died.
With no source of income, Fūka Shirayuki couldn't possibly continue her running dream.
She gradually sank into mediocrity—
and yet, in another way, she was still great.
When she realized the numbers in her bank account were sliding toward zero, thirteen-year-old Fūka Shirayuki decided to lie about her age—claiming she was fifteen—and went out to work. Because she was an Uma Musume, she developed faster.
She had no skills.
She tried countless jobs: restaurant grunt work, convenience store clerk, even telemarketer for a while… Any legal job that could earn money by selling labor—she tried almost all of them!
Even a devilish schedule like restaurant grunt work by day, then overnight shifts at a convenience store—she endured it.
For one reason only:
Fūka Shirayuki had no money.
At that time, her mother still hadn't died—but she was bedridden. Fūka Shirayuki had to shoulder the responsibility of the eldest.
Then one day when she was fourteen, her mother died—whether from an "accident" or "suicide," no one could say. But Fūka Shirayuki couldn't return to a normal life. She still had a little sister to raise…
Rent. School fees. Living expenses… all of it dragged at her legs, forcing her forward.
To be honest—
Fūka Shirayuki had once thought about moving somewhere else to live.
But places with low prices had low wages too. Some didn't even have decent education, stable safety, or reliable social support.
So she stayed in Tokyo instead. That way, she could lift her little sister higher—just like their parents had once done for her.
Family, after all, was a perfect art blessed by God.
"…Tch."
Thinking this far made Fūka Shirayuki a little irritated.
If she had such an amazing older sister, even with crippled legs she wouldn't feel life was hopeless!
She kept going in that axle-spinning life, grinding through it little by little—
and her courage, her sharp edges, were slowly worn down by life: hammered, hammered, until she looked like an ordinary person.
Money. Money. More money. Endless money.
She needed more, always more. In her life, nothing else remained that she could do.
But after enough pressure, life doesn't magically become better.
Taut nerves will snap one day.
If not for the one thing that kept her going—lifting her little sister upward—
she would've overdosed on psychiatric meds and never woken up,
even though the real situation didn't improve by much.
After another all-nighter at work, Fūka Shirayuki's body hit its limit.
Maybe she realized that the "bow" of her body would one day break. Late that night, she dug out old newspapers, looked at her former self, and swallowed two sleeping pills.
With that thought, Fūka Shirayuki turned her head again, looking at the things on the desk.
The first thing that caught her eyes was a slip of paper.
[The greatest courage in a person's life is accepting your own mediocrity.]
The note was written in Japanese.
Beside it lay a newspaper record from when nine-year-old Fūka Shirayuki had sprinted to first place. The girl in the photo was radiant—wild and proud, bursting with light. The newspaper itself was damp—whether from drinking water or from tears, no one knew.
The original Fūka Shirayuki had taken sleeping pills and never woke up. Exhaustion buried her, and she sank into a permanent, silent rest.
Two souls who wanted to die—yet neither truly killed themselves—
met at this moment because of accidental death.
Crossing the waters of the Sanzu River, threads of fate bound their souls together forever.
Luo Tianque… or rather, Fūka Shirayuki… fell silent.
Click.
A lighter sparked. She burned the note that carried courage and the past into snow-white ash—like the other girl's sacrifice.
Fūka Shirayuki spoke flatly:
"Your karma… I've received it."
"But you still had a healthy body, didn't you…? If you transmigrated into mine, go enjoy yourself using that bank card. There's more money in it than you could spend in a lifetime. The password is pasted in the first notepad file that opens on the computer."
"I hope you can be happy in this life."
But what surged up next was irritation.
Yes—pure irritation.
Irritation without reason. Irritation that made no sense. Just… irritated. She couldn't even say what exactly was irritating.
Isn't it just making money? Isn't it just raising your little sister?
At least you had a healthy body! Did you really need to reduce yourself to such a miserable state?
Watch closely!
Fūka Shirayuki!
Watch how "Lord Luo Tianque" does it!
I'll earn money you can't even comprehend! I'll send your sister to Japan's best university—no, overseas! Any country she wants! Study abroad wherever she chooses!
Watch how I take your apocalyptic starting hand and carry it to victory!
The hand you ruined—
I'll rebuild it.
I'll play the unbeatable combo.
The chuuni "Lord Luo Tianque" experienced, at long last, the feeling of legs that could move.
I'm going to write light novels. I'm going to get anime adaptations. I'm going to become the king of culture and entertainment!
And I'm an Uma Musume! I can race! I can run!
I'm going to leave them all in the dust!
She rolled around on the narrow tatami like a kid gone wild—until she suddenly sat up, covered her eyes with her right hand, and said with absolute calm:
"Amathylas—this time, I'll be the king."
Right at that moment—
Fūka Shirayuki's door was gently pushed open.
Her little sister, Fūka Chiori, cautiously peeked her head in, tilted it, and asked in confusion:
"Big sister?"
...
...
"…Hah?"
So.
Thirteen minutes after transmigrating, Lord Luo Tianque let out another breathy "hah."
