I'm Clearly Keeping a Low Profile, but You Insist I'm Putting on an Act

In the year 9527, Lan Shen Star was invaded by fiends from beyond the domain. To protect humanity, Lan Shen bestowed supernatural abilities upon mankind to fight the invaders. Among them, Chu Yan had the strongest talent. If he could grow to the very end, he would become a Star God and save Blue Star.

"Chu Yan, the path to godhood has already been laid out for you. Keep your head down until the end and you'll be invincible."

"Play it safe and focus on growing stronger. Don't get reckless."

That was just Lan Shen's wishful thinking.

On paper, Chu Yan only had an R-rank talent, yet he kept pulling off against-all-odds feats. He could have just kept his head down, but instead he insisted on sticking his neck out. He was always doing outrageous things, making Lan Shen so furious he wanted to smack him across the face.

Chu Yan spread his hands. "What am I supposed to do?"

"Don't I have the strongest talent? Isn't it normal for me to get this far?"

"I wasn't even giving it my all. I was just trying a little."

"I was keeping a low profile, but you all insist I'm showing off."

"I just can't take this life anymore."
