I open my eyes after a car crash and find myself cast as a substitute actor on a sinister opera stage, holding the role card for the [Bride Who Dies for Love]. One botched take means death!
While others weep and beg to survive, I use my theatrical training to make a ghost in red cry, and use logic to trick the troupe’s BOSS into a breakdown.
When I enter a role, I can imitate an extra’s mannerisms; when I steal the spotlight, I can take a supporting character’s place; when I rewrite the play, I can alter a dungeon’s ending; and when I cross-dress, I can fool even the gods and the God of Death!
Liu Qi, a former substitute actor: “You stole someone else’s role. Sooner or later, you’ll have to pay it back.”
I sneer. “Then I’ll steal the God of Death’s role and make him sit in the audience!”
From a Republican-era opera troupe to the Pantheon, from an unnoticed extra to a “director” capable of creating worlds,
I, Chen Wangchuan, use my acting skills to cut through every sinister dungeon. I can fool the sinister, deceive the God of Death, and rewrite my own fate!
But when my future self, the ultimate BOSS, appears before me, I finally realize:
This grand play sweeping across heaven and earth has been a scheme I’ve been performing for myself from the very beginning!
[Acting Comeback + Sinister Dungeons + Twin Heroines + Time Loop + Open Ending]
No filler, no dragging things out. Every volume has a climax, and the drama-loving protagonist tricks heaven, earth, and the God of Death. It’s an absolute thrill!
