I Heard I Confessed to the Top Student

[Main story complete]

Jiang Jian didn't like the new transfer student. He'd heard the guy was both a top student and a school bully at his old school, so he decided to challenge him to a fight.

He hired a ghostwriter with a real way with words to write a long, flowery challenge letter, then cornered the transfer student and shoved it into his hands without a word. With a smug little swagger, he told him, "Read it carefully. Pay attention."

But after class, he reached into his pocket and found the challenge letter still there. The little note he'd been passing back and forth with his friend was gone, and so was the hundred yuan he'd put in his pants pocket.

The next day, rumors were all over campus: Jiang Jian had confessed to the new transfer student, arranged to meet him in the woods after school, and even given him a hundred yuan. What on earth did that mean?

Jiang Jian: "..."

The confession could wait. Getting his money back came first.

A hundred yuan!

Jiang Jian found Luo Shuxin and awkwardly said, "Uh, that hundred yuan. Give it back."

Luo Shuxin: "I have to give it back? I thought it was my betrothal gift."

Jiang Jian: "????"

From the Asylum to Becoming a Legend in Infinite Games

Jian Qing is an NPC in an asylum game instance. He has no normal human emotions and no sense of right and wrong. He's an obnoxious thrill-seeker whose daily job is to play a pitiful little victim and trick players, then drop the act and chase them around, making their lives miserable as he kills them one by one.

Of course, he doesn't know he's an NPC. He thinks he does all this simply because he enjoys it.

Then one day, a strange player appears in the game instance. The player falls in love with his disguise and says he'll take him out of the game.

The player reveals that he's a player himself and explains that the asylum is just one game instance.

Beyond this instance is a much bigger world.

And Jian Qing is just a lowly A-rank NPC.

Jian Qing is stunned. It had never occurred to him that he might be an NPC.

The player promises Jian Qing that once he wins, he'll take him outside to see the world.

Jian Qing agrees, overjoyed.

But that useless player dies in the game instance.

Jian Qing: "..."

Jian Qing comes up with a plan of his own, destroys the asylum instance, finds a bug, and joins the players on their way to the Main God World.

No one could have expected that the young boy who logged into Homesick Island that day would one day challenge the Main God of the game, changing its rules and its world.

Coming soon 2: Rule-Based Horror: I Sweep Through Newbie Village with an Alt Account

Blurb:

When Hua Jiuzhou fell, the entire world of horror stories celebrated.

Hua Jiuzhou was a legend in the horror-story world.

He was the highest-level player in the game, had become a god, and transcended the world. He was the creator of the "rules." People said that the dangerous "rules" players had to watch out for during the game existed because of him.

He was, in other words, the root of all evil in the world of rule-based horror.

Who wouldn't be happy to see someone like that die?

But no one expected that the day after Hua Jiuzhou fell, the horror-story world would update its universal rules.

New universal rules:

1. Welcome to rule-based horror. Remember, you are an anonymous player. Do not reveal any real information in the game.

2. No game instance has an absolutely safe area, not even a safe house.

3. Don't trust any player with green eyes. The more beautiful they are, the less trustworthy they are.

4. Stay away from anything or anyone with the number "nine."

5. If you encounter a suspicious player with a mole on the palm side of their thumb, immediately request System intervention.

The horror-story world panicked: Was this legend dead or not?! Hadn't he transcended the world? Why were they supposed to watch out for a player like him in the game instances?

The handsome, mixed-race, green-eyed, school-idol-type fake newbie player Hua Jiuzhou, with a mole on the palm side of his thumb: "...If you're jealous of my looks, just say so!"

And so, a new legend arose in the horror-story world.

They say that a sweet, adorable girl named Sang Sang (three threes make nine) slaughtered her way through Newbie Village!
