You Said I Had Some Skill, So Why Are You Having Me Paint a Wall?

After transmigrating to a parallel world, Su Yang finds himself working as a painter and decorator.

His very first job is repainting the toilets at his alma mater!

After inheriting the original owner's memories, he discovers that the man had enrolled in civil engineering, a notoriously unrewarding major.

After graduating, he'd been made the scapegoat for an accident at a construction site.

His girlfriend ran off, his parents were seriously ill, and his future looked bleak.

Luckily, the Era Revelation System arrives.

But its very first mission is to evacuate the teachers and students from a school building that will collapse in 30 minutes!

As it happens, the campus belle who used to follow him around has returned to donate a building.

After security guards mistake him for a lunatic and throw him out, he runs into a group of old college friends, making his day even worse.

Principal: I said you had a couple of tricks up your sleeve, but I didn't think you'd actually come paint the walls!

Campus belle: Stop acting like this. You haven't really gone crazy, have you?

But Su Yang doesn't care. He sets the school building on fire and completes the mission!

From then on, he rises step by step.

Space elevators?

Quantum architecture?

Self-repairing materials?

Spaceships and Dyson spheres?

Su Yang will create a whole new era for all of humanity!
