Story: Reset-Repeat-Resume.
Meli was a normal content creator from Earth, until a "Time Wizard" decided to gift her his magic.
Several lifetimes have passed and she takes up a new form nicknamed "Draggi".

Draggi's debut form, brought to life by a Pomeranian, displays her as a diminutive sphere of excitement and feeling.Despite her reservations about attracting the attention of others, she retains a capacity to dish out a beating, should circumstances require it

In addition to her first form, Draggi chooses to adopt the appearance of a person in a Dating Sim world, Sometimes confused to be the MC.She feels no qualms in forming bonds with some of the individuals she encounters, however, she feels guilty and lonely afterwards, as she resets the simulation, and her newfound friends lose sight of her existence.

Building upon her previous forms, Draggi gains a new shape, this one made by a vampire infected with a digital virus.It's a common occurrence for her to find herself transported into indie games worlds, in which this particular form is her go-to manifestation."

Draggi takes up the role of the "traveler" from the online game "Genshin Impact".
She's a bit flustered at first when entering the new world. But now has grown fond of this world and fears the time she must leave it.
