The Rebellious Great Sage: Who Would Want This Lousy Job?

[The author’s ramblings]

My new novel is out! You’re welcome to read it on Tomato Novel! I’m a new author, and my previous draft wasn’t good enough, so this time I’ve decided to rewrite it from scratch. My writing still needs work, so please bear with me, dear readers! If you finish it and think it’s any good, could you give it a rating? Praise or criticism, either is fine. Point out anything that needs fixing, and I’ll revise it one issue at a time. I’ll carefully read all your suggestions.

A quick look at the plot

My name is Sun Wukong. I’m registered in Huaguo Mountain, and five hundred years ago I was the troublemaker who wreaked havoc in Heaven. Now I’ve served my sentence and been released. I thought I was still in prison, until I cracked open the rock and saw a label: “Mining period: Permanent.” Turns out I’m not a prisoner. I’m the mineral deposit itself!

Heaven sends me an offer: Stable Boy, with an official position. They say working 996 hours a week is a blessing. I laugh. The Old Lord dangles stock options to sell me a pipe dream, so I report him for tax evasion. Tathagata tries to sell me a paid knowledge community, so I expose his scripture for being riddled with typos. The Jade Emperor sends the city enforcement squad to demolish the Water Curtain Cave, so I livestream it and shoot straight to the top of the Three Realms’ trending list.

Six-Eared Macaque, who’s been working the night shift at Heaven’s Archives for three years, brings me the truth: the MK-series androids are AI soldiers trained on Wukong’s rebellious data. One of us flips the table head-on, while the other sabotages things from behind the scenes. The night the valve was shut, Six-Eared broke his leg. Wukong caught him faster than anyone else. Before passing out, Six-Eared said, “MK-01... I built it.”

“A measuring cup can’t measure the shape of the wind.”

If you want to ship the brothers, the sweetness is in their actions!

The main story is complete, so read without worry. [Extras in the works]
