Taking It Easy in a Horror Game: The Monsters Are Scared to Tears

[Rules-based horror + Infinite Flow + livestream + contrast-driven power fantasy + System]

“Don’t look back! Don’t open the door! Don’t talk to it!” These are the iron laws of horror games. Break them, and you die! Then Su Tang entered the game, and the whole world’s tone went completely off the rails.

At midnight, a knock at the door signals that death is coming. Su Tang thinks her food delivery has arrived and opens the door to yell, “Where’s my Coke? One-star review!” The serial killer stands frozen with his knife, wondering if he’s even still alive!

The Pen Fairy appears and demands that she risk her life in a game. Su Tang thinks the spirit is drawing too slowly, grabs the pen, and takes over, spending the whole night sketching nail art! The Pen Fairy: ...This is so hard.

Billions of viewers in the livestream hold their breath: That ditzy beauty is doomed! Instead, the Ghost King kneels to serve her tea, while the dungeon Boss offers up his most treasured divine artifact just to get her to leave. Su Tang pouts: “These NPCs are so weird. They keep trying to give me this junk.” Qin Feng: “Those are top-tier divine weapons capable of destroying the world, and you call them junk?” When the System identifies Su Tang as the biggest Bug and tries to erase her, countless evil spirits erupt in rebellion: “Who dares lay a hand on our top-ranked boss?!”

Su Tang: “I really just wanted to get eliminated and go home early!”
