Human Horror Stories: My Danger-Sensing Talent Brings Good Fortune

[Lighthearted Comedy + Subverting Expectations + Human Horror Tales + Scheming, Eccentric Protagonist + Danger-Avoidance Talent] You’ve heard plenty of eerie horror stories, but have you ever heard a human horror story? Lu Chen transmigrates to an eerie world invaded by human horror tales and becomes one of the eerie creatures. From the start, he awakens a talent: “Avoid danger, turn misfortune into good fortune, and prosper greatly.” Since the protagonist is mentally ill, it’s only reasonable for him to be eccentric and devious, right? Relying on his danger-avoidance talent, the not-quite-right-in-the-head Lu Chen starts his daily routine of swindling, cheating, and amassing a fortune. “What? Wu Di is my dear friend, practically family. If I’m going to scam him, I’m charging extra!” “Picking fights with men? Let’s see if you can handle my ten-thousand-ton punch!” “Moral blackmail? Just because I’m an eerie creature, I’m obligated to help other eerie creatures? What nonsense. I scam even myself. Now get lost!” “My dear human friends, would you like to buy some information about the eerie realm with human currency? I guarantee you’ll make it through, but I don’t guarantee you’ll make it out alive!” … Years later, after the human horror tales have been suppressed, the eerie creatures of later generations are baffled as they read what Lu Chen’s old acquaintances have to say about him. Wu Di: “His brain goes haywire now and then. Today it’s blowing from the southeast, tomorrow from the northwest. The eerie creatures only won because I whispered in his ear at the crucial moment. I’m the real savior of the eerie world.” Mu Xuefei: “What would you know? Sure, he’s ugly, immoral, not right in the head, and devious and eccentric, but he calls me his little beauty! That’s love!” Shi Quan: “I am the number one sycophant under the great Eerie God. Call me the Sycophant God… What? You want me to praise the great Eerie God? His achievements are unmatched throughout the ages, and my admiration for my lord flows like the endless Yangtze River…”
