This was an age of peace, an age of happiness, until the supernatural arrived.
People across the world were pulled into supernatural tales, where countless people died or were injured.
Countless cities became nests for monsters, and humanity stood on the brink of extinction.
Yu Zhao was a washed-up actor in China's region, a nobody from the lowest tier, so obscure he was practically invisible, with countless haters.
But by chance, he awakened a supernatural sequence: the Performer Pathway.
[Sequence 1: Performer]
[When you enter a supernatural tale, you will randomly draw a role to play.
Use your superb acting skills to fool everyone.
If you can deceive a god, you can become one.]
No combat ability, no intelligence, no mental strength!
A worthless sequence with none of the three.
His haters cheered in the livestream, waiting for Yu Zhao to be torn to pieces by the monsters.
Then...
Loading an S-rank supernatural scenario: [The Flesh Grinder]
--Scenario Boss: The Scythe-Wielding Death God.
--A grim reaper wandering through hell. The mist whispers, blood roars, and a rose blooms on the hilt of its blade, like the final ray of light before annihilation.
[Congratulations, you drew the role of the Death God's bride.]
"????"
The comments fell silent, filling with nothing but question marks.
Just as all his teammates were about to become minced meat beneath the Death God's scythe,
Yu Zhao alone calmly stepped forward, grabbed the Death God by the collar, and kissed the ghastly mist beneath its hood without batting an eye.
"Darling, your lips are so cold. Why aren't you wearing the outfit I bought you again, hmm?"
Just like that, Yu Zhao cleverly played the bride and had the Death God wrapped around his finger.
The mass of mist dropped a pile of items, then eagerly offered them to him, speaking in an awkward, halting voice.
"Eat. Thin. Grow. My... bride."
The comments said, "What a joke. That monster must be too naive. There's no way he'll be this lucky next time."
And so...
Yu Zhao drew the role of [Painted Skin]'s boyfriend,
[Grudge-Bearing Evil God]'s one true love,
[Pale Ghostly Shadow]'s elder brother,
[Smiling Puppet]'s master,
What Yu Zhao didn't know was that all SSS-rank monsters were avatars of gods. They could sense everything he did to the evil gods in the scenarios.
They were filled with overwhelming fury.
Damnable human, you wretched ant! How dare you defile a god's body!
[World Announcement]:
Congratulations to Yu Zhao of China's region for attracting the attention of the [God of War and Slaughter]. You have defiled it, and it has decided to descend into the mortal world and tear you apart.
Congratulations to Yu Zhao of China's region for attracting the attention of the [God of Death and the Dead]. You have piqued its interest, and it has decided to play with you.
Congratulations to Yu Zhao of China's region for attracting the attention of the [God of Disease and Plague]. You said you would be with it for three lifetimes, but then turned around and took Death's hand. It burned with jealous rage and has decided to turn you into its corpse puppet.
The announcements chimed without end. Under the world's watchful gaze, Yu Zhao had managed to max out every god's hatred in one go.
The comments said, "666, how many lives does this guy have to be this reckless? Just wait for the gods to bring disaster upon China's region and turn it into the first city reduced to ruins."
To the commenters' utter disbelief, Yu Zhao not only survived, but when he left the scenario, those monsters chased after him relentlessly, grabbing his arm with a sinister grip.
"Don't let me catch you, my beautiful boyfriend. Otherwise, I'll make you stay in the darkness forever, where I can keep you all to myself..."
Later...
The Hundred Ghosts' Night Parade began, and the scenarios officially broke through their rules, slaughtering people across the globe.
A group of SSS-rank monsters descended into the mortal world to find the heartless man who had dumped them.
Yu Zhao: "?"
Seriously, guys, I'm just playing a role. Why are you all taking it so seriously?
I still prefer the way you all acted tough.
#The story of Yu Zhao leading China's region to glory.
#The story of how every monster is my ex.
#Unlucky, but maxed out in charm.
[Reader Advisory]:
The story centers on the protagonist.
The monsters are real ghosts, beyond ordinary people's understanding.
Theme: Live well.
