(Please add this to your favorites, everyone 🥺) (Worlds 1–6 complete)
Long Su was a sickly beauty in life, laid-back to a fault and content to do nothing, wheezing after just a few steps. After she died, she was bound to a Side Character System that could bring her back to life. As long as she completed a mission, she would earn one chance at resurrection.
But as the missions went on, the Side Character System broke down.
【You were supposed to complete the missions! Why do you fail every time? Do you even want to come back to life?!】
“Nope. Why would I want to come back? So I can keep being a sickly beauty?”
【So you’re exploiting a bug? You’re supposed to be a side character, but you’re playing the villain instead!】
World One: You’re the Neighbor of a Nonhuman Movie Star
The glamorous movie star lives right across from you. You notice that someone keeps knocking on her door in the middle of the night. Once would be normal, but every night? That’s strange. So many people knock, yet why does the star always appear alone? Where did they all go?
As her neighbor, you notice that she grows more and more beautiful in her films, so beautiful she no longer seems human, more like a demoness feeding on people’s life force.
So you raise your hand to knock on her door
And then you die.
Long Su: Why would I knock on her door? Why not just invite her over to my place?
System: 【You mean sit?】
Long Su: Oh, right. Same thing, same thing.
So Long Su really does invite the movie star over. Her skin is cool and pale, her lips a vivid red. She’s even more beautiful than she looks on screen.
The star remembers the neighbor who used to watch her with a lovestruck gaze, and smiles as she gets ready to eat.
But as she eats, Long Su doesn’t die. Instead, she becomes the human villain who keeps the star as a pet. Long Su is confused. Long Su is deep in thought.
Whatever. As long as the mission fails.
World Two: You’re the Ghost Sister’s Stand-In for the Dead
