When Ye Xichan first met Chu Tian, the protagonist of The God King of Another World, he didn't yet know he had transmigrated into a book.
Chu Tian: "Don't look down on a young man just because he's poor!"
Ye Xichan (instinctively picking up the line): "Don't look down on a middle-aged man just because he's poor! Don't look down on an old man just because he's poor! The dead deserve respect!"
Chu Tian: "...You!"
Ye Xichan had transmigrated halfway through the story. The memories he'd acquired told him that the girl who had just broken off her engagement with that "don't-look-down-on-me" guy was his younger sister. They'd snuck out of their sect together, and this time they'd come specifically to end the engagement.
...This plot feels so familiar. I should probably do something to fix it.
Then he accidentally heard Chu Tian mutter dejectedly to himself, "Other transmigrators all make a name for themselves. But when it comes to me, heh..."
Ye Xichan: "...!"
He immediately rushed over and asked, under Chu Tian's wary, guarded gaze, "Are you from my hometown?"
Chu Tian: "?"
After a flurry of confusion, the two transmigrators successfully met. The only unfortunate thing was that, although they were both college students, one was from 2005 and the other from 2025. Thanks to the difference in eras, they had a hard time communicating.
Ye Xichan recalled the plot: First, you'll have this fortuitous encounter, then that divine technique, and then that treasure. You'll win, win, win all the way until you become the deluxe, maxed-out version of Long Aotian. Woohoo!
Chu Tian: "...?"
Chu Tian kept leveling up and working through hardship, while Ye Xichan was a lazy loafer who thought passing was good enough.
Chu Tian couldn't stand his companion's laziness. "Get up and train!"
"I don't want to train. Why don't I just be your sidekick and live off you?"
Chu Tian: "..."
"We're from the same hometown. Give me something to eat, please? Pretty please!"
Chu Tian: "...You, how can you be like this..."
His face turned red.
Ye Xichan discovered Chu Tian's weakness!
Whenever Chu Tian disapproved of something he did, Ye Xichan would exploit that weakness:
"Please?" "Come on, won't you?" "You're the best, big brother."
And then Chu Tian would back down.
At last, one day, the trick stopped working.
Choking back sobs, Ye Xichan tried to climb down from the bed. "Dear big brother, please..."
Chu Tian grabbed his ankle and slowly pulled him back. "Not this time."
I originally planned to write the one about the Demon King, but I just couldn't get into it, so I switched to this one. Sorry, my little angels QAQ
