【Nightmares + Seizing Power + Rebuilding the World Order】
One-line pitch: Challenge the pyramid, become the pyramid
Shen Cheng returned to the real world. Outside the utopia, humanity could be swallowed up by nightmares at any moment, and Dreamwalkers were needed to clear the dreamscapes.
Giving up her pampered life, with everything brought to her and all her meals provided, Shen Cheng chose to make it on her own.
Her services covered a wide range of needs, and she soon achieved financial freedom.
Can’t get a kid to sleep? Call Shen Cheng. She’ll have them out in a second.
Someone in the family has mysteriously disappeared? Call Shen Cheng. She’ll deliver them alive or dead, postage paid.
Got into a dispute with someone? Call Shen Cheng. After mediation, both sides will be thoroughly convinced.
Watching the show is her hobby. Why not make a little money while she’s at it?

01
After finally saving up enough money, Shen Cheng decided to visit a tourist attraction. She nearly died there instead.
Shen Cheng: “Do I have to be this unlucky?”
A burly man lay sprawled on the ground, eyes shut tight, cold sweat already beading across his forehead.
Kindhearted Shen Cheng pressed a fingertip to his temple. “It must be so painful…”
02
To soothe her wounded heart, Shen Cheng took on a big job when she went back to work.
Task: Kill the client.
Shen Cheng: “Has the client lost their mind? Their top priority should be turning right and going to the hospital for a checkup.”
Someone had cut open their own wrist and was clutching a jar reverently.
Shen Cheng knocked them out with a knife-hand strike. “Idiot.”
03
Shen Cheng decided it was important to get a certificate officially recognized by the authorities.
So she enrolled at an Awakened Training Institute, determined to study hard and stop getting into trouble.
What? The teacher’s trapped in a nightmare?
Shen Cheng swore she hadn’t barged in out of curiosity. She was just worried about the teacher.
Shen Cheng ran breathlessly on a conveyor belt. “Nobody told me I’d have to work out inside nightmares!”
She was starting to regret it.
04
Shen Cheng finally made it through graduation and secured a permanent position. She’d planned to slip away quietly, but the great houses all came offering her a place among them.
She couldn’t help it. She’d performed too well… and now this was a tough choice.
After thinking it over for a long time, Shen Cheng said this in front of the representatives sent by the great houses.
Shen Cheng: “Here’s what we’ll do. You can all take my surname, and I’ll be the head of the family. I’ll do you the favor of helping you soar.”
