Secret-identity power fantasy | Infinite Flow | HE | Mind-bending | Both leads devoted and powerful |
A cold, sulky, manipulative green tea type vs. a prophecy-telling slacker
I’m a 19-year-old college student who just got reborn. I should have been lying low in an Infinite Flow instance until the end, but then I realized the whole world was off. My teammates can read my inner snark, like “This instance is pure underworld nonsense”; the NPCs can hear me say, “What genius came up with this puzzle?” Even that white-haired villain who’s always at odds with me can pinpoint every single one of my sore spots.
Oh, I forgot to mention: I’m the only one without mind-reading powers.
In my previous life, I did everything I could to protect my teammates, only to be betrayed by the person I trusted most and die in the depths of an instance. This time, I’m just going to lie flat: I’ll do the missions if I feel like it, my teammates can do whatever they want, and as for the villain, he can do what he wants. I’ll just lie back and take the ridicule.
But can someone tell me why the more I slack off, the clingier my teammates get? And why does that white-haired villain, with his gloomy stare and tongue sharp enough to freeze you solid, always show up to save me just when I’m about to die? Why does he keep looking at me like, “Go ahead and try dying on me”? ...
