Cthulhu: Why Is Everyone Kneeling When We Were Supposed to Be Ordinary People?

Zhou Xian is a man who enjoys a good laugh.

He opened a little shop on the edge of the Erosion Zone. Every day, he cooks, grows flowers, takes walks, and pets cats. Now and then, he greets a passing monster. Life is wonderfully leisurely.

He thinks his life is utterly ordinary.

Until one day, he discovers that...

The fly he casually shooed away was a Tier Three Fallen Lord;

The water he uses to water his flowers can drive away the Gray Mist;

A cold joke from him makes everyone listening break through their mental barriers;

One sneeze from him sets off the city's sensors with an alert for an evil god;

And his fat cat is a Sacred Beast of the Abyssal Sea.

Every evil god cult in the world is chanting the same name. In the Tribunal's files, his codename is Key to the End. Six slumbering Old Ones awaken at the same time for his sake.

Zhou Xian himself has only one thing to say about it:

“Seriously... I just made a bowl of braised pork. Is all this really necessary?”
