[Haven't figured out the blurb yet]
Long hair, war-related CPTSD, commander, so tense he suffers from severe insomnia. The trope where he has an episode and stares blankly into space while comforting his subordinates. A healing story about growth and family love.
The youngest son of the Bai family, who had been in a vegetative state for three years, suddenly wakes up. His once flamboyant and rebellious personality has become withdrawn and quiet. He smiles faintly, but his gaze often loses focus as he stares blankly in one direction.
His three years of long hair falls loose around him. He is thin and pale.
This is a world in which war rages year-round. Foreign enemies, alien races, and class conflicts are tearing society apart. The fires of war squeeze the barren land dry, while the planet's disintegration is treated like fireworks.
He can only fall asleep with family by his side. Nightmares wake him constantly, but even when he wakes, he says nothing. He lies quietly in bed until dawn, as if he had bled dry in some place unknown to his brothers and father, and been ground into the shape they needed, until even a single glance reveals nothing but scars and the weathering of time.
Bai Jue lived through a thousand cycles on the battlefield.
Before he was swallowed by the smoke of endless war, he returned to the hometown where he had once been free to do whatever he pleased as a boy.
Version 1.5 is a little strange, but I'm posting it anyway. Still needs some thought.
This is a world in which war rages year-round.
Foreign enemies, alien races, and class conflicts are tearing society apart. The fires of war squeeze the barren land dry, while the planet's disintegration is treated like fireworks.
The upper classes live in drunken indulgence, while the masses drift through life in a daze.
Even the internet is full of extremism, aggression, and people flinging insults at each other's ancestors. After all, an explosion will come before a hacker's counterattack.
After yet another heated argument with his stern, exhausted father and brothers, Bai Jue storms out to the edge of the battlefield.
The Bai family has served in the military for generations and is renowned far and wide.
He is like a flower, so overprotected that he doesn't fit in, its twisted roots starved of nourishment.
"The Bai family's unruly, rebellious youngest son." How many people has he given a good laugh?
He was arrogant, naive, and foolish. So, in the moment he died from nuclear radiation, he accepted the System's request.
To prove the joke he'd made before running away from home.

The youngest son of the Bai family, who had been in a vegetative state for three years, suddenly wakes up. His once flamboyant, carefree personality has become withdrawn and quiet.
He gazes with smoke-gray eyes and gives a faint shake of his head, but his eyes often lose focus as he stares blankly in one direction.
His three years of long hair falls loose around him. He is thin and pale.
At night, nightmares wake him constantly. Even after waking, he says nothing and lies quietly in bed until dawn.
As if he had bled dry in some place unknown to his father and brothers, then been ground down by an outside force into the shape they needed, until even a single glance reveals nothing but scars and the weathering of time.

Because of his recklessness, he had to watch again and again as a veteran who was just like his father sacrificed himself to protect him.
Because he took things for granted, didn't know when to hold back, and wasn't smart enough, he didn't even know the basic facts that every third-class citizen knew. All he could do was helplessly watch the familiar and unfamiliar faces become drenched in blood.
Sharp edges can wound the people around you.
When the gentle, slender young commander destroys an alien nest, the System's announcement finally arrives:
[Congratulations, Host. You have successfully completed the simulation. You have one wish waiting to be redeemed.]
