I’m a Cosmic Civil Servant, and I Refuse to Work Overtime

Ling Xiu died, then came back to life.

The price was signing an endless employment contract with a cosmic organization calling itself the “Council for Reality Stabilization and Conceptual Correction.”

From then on, he became a “programmer” responsible for keeping the world running normally, fixing the endless “Bugs” appearing in reality:

Mirror reflections that grin wickedly, buses that devour time, roadside trees that grow human teeth, and an upside-down city that appears only at midnight...

On the surface, he is a cold, mysterious, domineering CEO with a fortune worth billions.

Behind the scenes, he is a cosmic corporate drone constantly bouncing between KPIs and the brink of death, dreaming only of clocking out on time.

“Don’t get me wrong. I’m not saving the world because I love it. I’m doing it purely for that pitiful attendance bonus.”

“What? Another anomaly? Warning: your ace reality corrector is on leave. Find another unlucky soul, or wait for the world to reboot itself.”

This is the story of the strongest employee, forced to save the world while grumbling his way through a bizarre city.
