Online Game: Turns Out I'm an NPC

Richard transmigrated into a game called Advent of the Gods, where the game and reality were completely fused. Then a System appeared out of nowhere, leaving him permanently one point of experience short of changing classes.

With no way to level up and grow stronger, all he could do was find somewhere to while away the rest of his life.

He could live off the land, fish, play music, and paint when he had nothing else to do... Since he couldn't get stronger, he might as well live like a carefree hermit.

But he couldn't understand why, all of a sudden,

the Empire's most gifted Sky Knight insisted on serving at his side.

Why did a top-tier player who had changed classes three times insist on becoming his underling?

He'd casually go fishing, and a whole crowd would hang on his every word.

He'd paint a picture to pass the time, and a whole crowd would fight over it.

"Lord Richard is undoubtedly the most humane NPC!"

"Go fight bosses and level up? I'd rather freeload at Lord Richard's place. Whoever wants to go can go!"

"Believe in Lord Richard, and gain eternal life!"
