The Chief Says Nothing, and My Millennia-Old Nemesis Turns Out to Be My Brother

[Urban] [Instances] [No CP, Though You're Welcome to Ship Them] [Light Ensemble Cast]

Wu Nian was the top player in the Chess Game, a master strategist. After retiring, he was reborn as the true young master of a wealthy family and vowed to do only three things in this life: protect his identity, take care of his brother, and live a normal life.

One day, Wu Mingxuan was pulled into the game, and Wu Nian swiftly created a player alt to enter the instance and rescue him.

Then he saw his own "frail" brother take down a player in two seconds.

Wu Nian: Who am I? Where am I? Who did I come to rescue?

Wu Mingxuan was the Chess Game's chief executive. After retiring, he was reborn as the fake young master of a wealthy family and vowed to do only three things in this life: protect his identity, look after his brother, and live a normal life.

When he learned Wu Nian had also been dragged into the game, Wu Mingxuan decided to weld his secret identity shut and act as his demon king's bodyguard.

Then he saw his own "innocent" little brother counterkill an executive in two seconds.

Wu Mingxuan: Who am I? Where am I? Who did I come to protect?

To protect each other better, they both reclaimed their identities and treasured the good fortune of having found one another.

But the Chess Game was in for a rough time: twenty-two years later, its two chiefs returned from retirement at the same time. The old rivals met again, and they were so eager to fight that several instances exploded!

The hit documentary series The N-Way Mutual Pursuit of Madness is now airing...

(Reader's guide:

Two chiefs + two secret identities exposed + dark humor

I thought I was rescuing you, but you fight even better than I do. I thought you were here to get yourself killed, but you're my sworn enemy.

Sworn enemies in a past life, brothers in this one.

The true young master's thought process is unhinged; the fake young master's behavior is crazy.)
