After the Global Mutation, I Can Finally Eat My Fill

By the age of twenty-three, Su Ze had only two things to worry about: never getting enough to eat, and the dangerously low health bar above his head.

He wasn't hungry because he had a big appetite. Ordinary food simply couldn't meet his body's needs, no matter how much he ate. His health bar seemed like a standard feature for a protagonist, but it was useless for anything besides reminding him that his death was near.

So when the apocalypse arrived, Su Ze thought for two seconds, then slowly lay flat.

Years of hunger had left him frail and weak. His health was below 10 percent, and his only good feature was his teeth. What was the point of struggling?

Who knew the apocalypse's monsters would be delicious, with great color, aroma, and flavor, and that a single bite would be as filling as ten meals?

Su Ze: Thanks for the invitation. I'm ready to eat.

The apocalypse arrived. Genes fused, and living things around the world mutated wildly. Animals grew roots, plants sprouted fangs, and even people gradually stopped looking human.

Only Su Ze remained as beautiful and delicate as ever.

When the country asked for his help, he made just one request:

"Fill up my health bar."

In Xing Lu's eyes, his ex-boyfriend Su Ze was an orphan with albinism: friendless, familyless, and helpless. In the apocalypse, he was surely doomed.

But when they reunited, his poor, frail ex-boyfriend was holding an outdoor barbecue party while surrounded by monsters.

Xing Lu: ...We haven't seen each other in five years. Don't you have anything to say?

Su Ze: I have a question.

Xing Lu: Go ahead.

Su Ze: I heard you're my ex-boyfriend. How come I don't know about this?

Xing Lu: ...?

At first, Su Ze had only two simple wishes: to eat well and feel full, and to fill up his health bar. Who knew he'd end up saving all of humanity?

Content warning: Lovecraftian elements, sort of. The protagonist's golden finger is ridiculously powerful.

[My Ex-Boyfriend Turned into a Paper Person returns from hiatus in December. Please add it to your collection!]

Bookshop owner Lin Sheng is beautiful, charming, and well-mannered. He has a history of mental illness, but has been out of the hospital for years and is emotionally stable, at least until he receives a notebook from his missing ex-boyfriend.

The moment he sees the notebook, Lin Sheng is so furious he nearly loses his mind on the spot. He immediately decides to follow the address and kill the man, and then...

Antisocial alternate personality: Then let me out! I'll skin him alive, tear out his tendons, and twist his head off to kick it around like a ball!

But as soon as he steps outside, he finds himself in a bizarre place. The notebook floats in midair and flips open on its own, though there's no wind. A line of bloody writing appears on the blank page:

[Give your hubby a kiss~]

Lin Sheng: ...Heh. The world of mental illness just keeps getting more and more colorful!

Good news: His ex-boyfriend is back, and now he can get revenge!

Bad news: His ex-boyfriend has turned into a paper person. He can see him, but he can't touch him.

Lin Sheng draws his sword and looks around in bewilderment. He can't reach the heartless bastard, and now he's surrounded by fellow patients.

Patient A: Hey, friend, are you religious? We have everything: Great Old Ones, the Eternal Son, the Flying Spaghetti Monster. Don't believe? Then we'll kill you!

Lin Sheng, who was only passing by: ...

Patient B: I can see the evil thoughts in everyone's hearts, and you! You're overflowing with malice. You deserve to die!

Lin Sheng, who has an antisocial alternate personality but is a good citizen at heart: ...

Patient C: Excuse me, friend, please wait. Listen while I read you a...

Lin Sheng: I'm not religious.

Patient C: This isn't scripture, it's my diary. May 18, Year 133 of the New Era. Sunny today. Meimei from the class next door smiled at me, but I'm still dating Meimei. Ah! We're sugar, sweet enough to make you sad~

Lin Sheng: ...

With a paper-person boyfriend who wants to rekindle their romance with cybernetic dick, and an alternate personality who keeps shouting about becoming a god, Lin Sheng decides the world might as well just be destroyed :)
