My name is Su You. I transmigrated, and ended up inside the novel I wrote myself.
I became an insignificant character with only a few lines, destined to be beaten to death by the local bully within a few chapters.
Then the protagonist would kill the bully, take the nobody's cultivation slot at a sect, and soar to success.
In other words, I became the most insignificant stepping stone for the protagonist.
Damn it, a monster beast!
How could I have come up with such a brainless plot?
Still, luckily, I have a cheat. My author editor transmigrated here with me.
Changing the nobody's tragic fate should be a piece of cake!
Editor, come forth!!!
"Waaah..."
An alarm sounded like someone was fleeing for their life.
"Forced plot alterations detected. The protagonist's plot-mandated kill has been completed. This world is about to collapse, and everyone will perish along with it, including a certain jerk typing away in a corner."
A jerk? Your whole family are jerks.
Fine, fine. So I can't force changes, and I have to follow the plot? Then adding a little subplot shouldn't be a problem.
So, just as the bully was about to beat me up, I opened the editor.
Add plot: the bully's tragic background.
The bully's mother died young, and his father fell off a cliff while gathering herbs to support him. Now, I was that poor father.
"Biao'er, is that you? I'm your dad!"
"Dad? You brat, stop talking nonsense. You don't even look as old as me."
"Your dad had an extraordinary encounter. Biao'er, if you don't believe me, I have a keepsake from your mother."
As he spoke, Su You pulled a bellyband from his robes.
"It was a rainy day. Your mother was wearing it when she came to the woodshed..."
