Jiang Lin dies suddenly from working overtime, but his soul ends up inside Aaron, a cannon-fodder NPC in Against Fate: Divine Authority, destined to be slain by players.
Seeing the cold "Recyclable" label on his name badge, Jiang Lin flies into a rage. “You want to use me as a stepping stone to godhood? Did you ask my keyboard first?”
And so, the newbie village's whole vibe changes:
Aaron the guide stops smiling and being helpful, and starts professionally setting players up. He alters quest rewards and nearly gets everyone banned, then offers overpriced divine weapons in exchange for 0.0001 Affection...
The forums explode with hot posts: “The Newbie Village NPC Has Come to Life!” “Did He Put Something in the Code?”
From a recyclable tool to a BUG Lord, Jiang Lin wields a rule-rewriting tool and tramples the GM's performance review sheet.

Jiang Lin knows the NPCs' counterattack has only just begun. This time, the throne of godhood is empty. A stepping stone? He'll be the one flipping the table!
It's great, but the ending is a bit rushed
