I Killed the System

The woman-torturing System tells Mo Xiaodao: You have to save the male lead and make him fall for you completely to get home.

Mo Xiaodao points at herself in disbelief: Me?

Do you Systems not run background checks before snatching people?

You're making a villain ranked number one on the darknet's bounty-hunter list enter a woman-torturing redemption story?

Come on. Who tortures whom remains to be seen.

-------------------- The System's inevitable death --------------------

The woman-torturing System has no idea that its wrongly captured Host, Mo Xiaodao, won't follow its mission instructions. Instead, she brings along another Overlord System that wants to devour it and enters the little world it created. She plans not only to break the world's rules and replace its original male lead, but also to rebuild the world.

The Overlord System doesn't know that Mo Xiaodao, the Host working with it, didn't take the mission just for the huge bounty on the darknet's hit list. The real reason is that Mo Xiaodao in the real world... is dying. Before she dies, she has to repay a debt.

Entering the little world with two Systems in tow, Mo Xiaodao immediately kills the original male lead fifty times, takes half the woman-torturing System's life, and successfully activates the Overlord System.

She becomes a bandit, ventures into perilous territory, sorts out the little world's original plot, replaces its original male lead, and clears away the woman-torturing System's influence, restoring the world to what it was meant to be.

She thinks she's looking down from God's perspective, a creator who doesn't belong to the little world.

But as the plot unfolds, some things start developing in an uncontrollable direction.

-------------------- The female lead raises the male lead as a pet. He's a broken Persian cat at first, then an evil silver-shaded cat. --------------------

When Zhou Zhuo first met Mo Xiaodao, he was still called Zhou Jianye.

He clearly saw a trace of pity in Mo Xiaodao's eyes... for him!

For someone like him, whom others saw as a lowly bastard and a monster in appearance.

Even years later, when Mo Xiaodao admitted that she hadn't pitied him for his own sake, but because he looked like a Persian cat she'd once had, he still refused to give up.

Pity him because of a cat... He still wouldn't let go.

Countless people had treated him with malice over the years, and Mo Xiaodao was the only one who had ever treated him kindly.

If she wanted to treat him like a cat, then so be it.

He lay down in Mo Xiaodao's lap. He knew she liked having him curled up beside her, and he closed his eyes in contentment as she stroked his silver-white hair.

"Master, you can't bear to give up this side of me either, can you?"

"I could have, but when did your hair change color? It was white. How did it turn gray? An evil... silver-shaded cat?!"

Zhou Zhuo: "..."

What's a silver-shaded cat?

And how does Master know he's evil...

Did she find out about all the schemes he's been plotting?

Later in the mission plot, a System grand prize grants the ability to come back from the dead, so the story includes fantasy elements.

Author's content notes:

1. This is not a typical System story or a quick transmigration story. The entire novel takes place in one fictional ancient-world setting.

2. The female lead is rough and rude, with an absurdly high combat level. She's an overbearing flower.

3. The male lead is sensitive and perceptive. He's a white lotus in front of the female lead and a green tea in front of everyone else.

4. The female lead has the career arc, and the male lead has the romance arc.

5. The woman is A, and the man is O. The soft overcome the hard.

Theme: Even when trapped by a fate already written, you can use your own blade to carve a path to freedom.
