After waking up, Bai Min finds herself in a bizarre world full of ghost stories.
From the start, she has an extremely yin constitution: she's frail, short-lived, and attracts ghosts.
Bai Min: Hold on. Isn't it ridiculous to charge into ghost stories with a constitution full of negative buffs?
System: This constitution comes with a passive skill: if a ghost kills you, you gain its abilities.
Bai Min: !!!
Bai Min: ...But then again, cleansing ghost stories is everyone's responsibility! I'm in!
From then on, a peculiar player appears in the world of ghost stories.
While everyone else avoids ghosts, she searches everywhere for them, trying all sorts of ways to get herself killed.
While others fear ghostly vengeance, she taunts the ghosts to their faces and hits them where it hurts.
When danger strikes, she volunteers to stay behind, sacrificing herself and leaving her teammates with a tragic parting image.
...But why are you in danger? Never mind that!
The world of ghost stories descends into chaos, and its most absurd king arrives.
The ghosts tremble with rage. If they don't kill her, they'll die of anger themselves. If they do kill her, they're just rewarding her.
On Bai Min's first day, the ghosts cheer at the arrival of food.
By her nth day, they've accepted their fate and bowed in submission.
Everyone, human and ghost alike, watches her repeatedly court death, only to grow stronger and eventually be crowned king.

Jiang Ce of the Bureau of Anomaly Investigation is noble and taciturn, with a ruthless hand. Humans and ghosts alike tremble at his name.
His most legendary power is controlling a hundred ghosts.
Until one day, someone escapes a vicious ghost's clutches and rushes to his side... to beg him to kill her.
Jiang Ce: ...?
After hearing about Jiang Ce's power, Bai Min does everything she can to get on his nerves.
If a hundred ghosts kill her at once, she'll gain a hundred abilities at once!
Then she discovers Jiang Ce reading Abnormal Reactions After Encountering a Ghost, fussing over her at every turn and trying to keep every vicious ghost away from her.
Bai Min: ...I really do want to be killed by a ghost.
Theme: Hold on to sunshine and hope.
