The System Forced Me to Become a High-Profile God, So I Livestreamed Fixing Water Pipes

Mao Lei awakens dual water- and earth-element abilities.

They sound impressive, but in practice they're useful for unclogging drains, patching cracks in walls, and rescuing a pothos plant.

The Extraordinary Ability Exposure System successfully binds to him, forcing him to livestream his extraordinary powers and harvest the internet's amazement. Completing tasks rewards him with fire control, physical enhancement, and the ability to fly through the sky and burrow through the earth.

Mao Lei glances at the interface, falls silent for three seconds, then starts streaming. The title: "Home Repairs: Unclogging a Drain."

Fire control? He trades it for a professional toolbox.

Physical enhancement? He trades it for waterproofing materials.

The livestream chat erupts. Some hail him as a hidden master, while others insist it's all scripted acting. Screenshots spread, the Cyberspace Administration comes knocking, a special agency opens a file on him, and various factions secretly set their sights on this repairman.

The System keeps urging him to make a high-profile debut and bask in the spotlight.

Mao Lei crouches on the floor tightening a pipe without even looking up. "Don't rush me. My appointments are booked through next month."

The whole internet is guessing how powerful he really is.

Only Mao Lei is worried: if fewer than a thousand people watch his next stream, the System won't let him eat.
