I Choose to Be a Capitalist

Ji Shize, society's ultimate corporate drudge, worked himself to death from overtime. When he opened his eyes again, he had transmigrated and become a little baby.

Based on his half a lifetime of reading novels, transmigrators were supposed to get a golden finger.

He waited and waited. He finished elementary school, middle school, and high school, and was about to become a corporate drudge again, but his golden finger still hadn't shown up.

Had Heaven made him transmigrate just so he could be a corporate drudge all over again?

Thankfully, Heaven finally took pity on him. On his eighteenth birthday, his golden finger arrived at long last:

[Capitalist]

1. Invest in others to improve their talents, or even change their talents out of thin air.

2. Those invested in automatically hand over part of their rewards to the capitalist.

3. The more those invested in grow, the more investment points become available.

Capitalist. What an awful word! Just look at these terms. How utterly unscrupulous!

But now he was the one who got to be the capitalist. Heh, this is great!

All right, let's set a modest little goal:

Take his company to that damned other world!

-

A high-dimensional invasion swept the entire Blue Star into a game.

When people on Blue Star turned eighteen, a tiny minority awakened talents and became dungeon architects, gaining the ability to build dungeons.

The carefully crafted dungeons were easily conquered by players from another world. The architects died, and the ruined dungeons fell into the real world, becoming one deadly no-go zone after another.

No one dared imagine what would happen once every dungeon had been conquered, and players from another world brought their skills with them and treated Blue Star as one giant resource-gathering map...

Thankfully, none of that would happen.

Because [Dreamcraft Company] had appeared.

Join and offer up your soul, and you could get...

Money? Fame?

No. Join, and you could defy fate, gain talents you never would have dared dream of, and claim everything you wanted.

Otherworld Player Forum:

-Has anyone cleared a dungeon bearing the name [Capitalist]?

The System notified me that I'm entering this architect's dungeon in an hour. Please, someone, share a guide!

-Look at that, another unlucky soul. Remember to bring less equipment when you go in.

-Huh? Don't bring equipment? How am I supposed to clear it, then?

-Who said anyone could clear it? The clear rate for his dungeons is still 0. The strongest guild spent a whole month bashing its head against one and still couldn't beat it. They lost a pile of equipment, and the guild leader even dropped a level.

-What?! The sky is falling! What kind of trash game won't let you clear a dungeon?

-Right? So many players have complained, but the damn game still won't change!

Ji Shize has been feeling troubled lately.

His company is thriving, his skills are growing stronger, and his dungeon clear rate is still 0.

Everything would be great if there weren't a bug in his dungeon.

The bug appears and disappears without warning, randomly killing groups of players.

Ji Shize spent ages trying to catch it. At last, thanks to his tireless efforts, he caught it: a handsome man, wearing no clothes.

Wait, how did this bug turn into a person right in front of him?

And he was exactly Ji Shize's type!

How could he bring himself to kill him?

No, he had to turn this bug into a thoroughbred workhorse and make him work for the company!

A snarky, irreverent, unscrupulous capitalist bottom and a brooding, crawling-around-in-the-dark bug top (now a corporate drudge)
