Lu Chuan transmigrated.
In a world five hundred years after the spiritual qi revival, martial arts, cultivation, supernatural abilities, and technology all coexist. While others fly on swords, he just lies flat and slacks off. While others awaken S-rank abilities, the System leaves him hanging for three whole days.
At long last, his golden finger arrives, only to turn out to be the [Great Manga Artist System]. Wasn't he supposed to get an invincible hero's story?
Then he draws a card: [Ryoma Echizen (SSR)].
From that moment on, the world changes.
One slash knocks a second-tier monster flat and leaves everyone gaping.
Others fight by charging headlong in. He fights by “making a point”:
One Hundred and Thirty Emotions: Soaring Dragon Serves Its Ultimate Purpose, a strike that cuts through emotions.
Cut away anger, and rampaging monsters calm down on the spot.
Cut away fear, and his teammates charge forward without a hint of hesitation.
Cut away an office drone's fatigue... though he hasn't tried that one yet.
He thought he was finally on his way to the top, only to discover that...
The System wants him to build a following, but he's at home stewing duck soup for the neighbors.
The System says, “Could you try being serious for once?”
Lu Chuan says, “I am serious. Serious about slacking off.”
Then one day, the truth behind the collapse of the secret realm comes to light. The ruins of an ancient civilization resurface, and those around him are drawn into a storm sweeping across the world...
Lu Chuan grips Qiushui and sighs.
“System, would you say this counts as... being forced to work hard?”
“...Host, please take the main quest seriously.”
“Fine.” He rolls his shoulders and looks at the enemies blotting out the sky ahead, a smile tugging at his lips.
“Then I'll get serious for a bit.”
