I’m Dying, but a Mad Little Snake Forces Me Back to Life

[Two male leads] + [raising and nurturing] + [unhinged] + [pet] + [split personality] + [healing]

In a country where keeping animals as pets is legal, a hugely popular pet game is a source of comfort for countless people.

Jiang Chengyuan diligently signs in to the game every day, and unexpectedly receives a spirit pet that can come into the real world.

He clings to him. He annoys him.

He grows murderous. He learns to keep him captive.

What he never expected was that Jiang Chengyuan's second personality, Jiang Yuanqiao, would see the light of day again.

“Let's get rid of Jiang Chengyuan together.”

“Maybe not.”

“You can eat meat every day.”

“I might consider it.”

Then, when a diary appears, Bai Li returns to the past, and the two people he had forgotten meet again in his memories...

Jiang Chengyuan & Bai Li

In public: a mild-mannered, frail psychiatrist & a timid, pitiful little pet snake

In private: a hidden big shot in the spirit pet game & an obsessive, S-rank stone ghoul black snake

A bug in the spirit pet game causes it to merge with the real world.

Jiang Yuanqiao waits endlessly, motionless as a statue. At last, he sees the person he has longed for, only to receive a sharp dagger as a greeting.

“So, how many times have you killed me now?”

“My stone ghoul black snake, whom I raised with my own hands. You're so beautiful.”
