The Human-Shaped, Self-Service Wishing Machine

The bonus story next door, The Tsushima Family's Meals Tomorrow, is now underway. I hope you'll support it~ [VIP Announcement] This story will become a paid work on May 5, starting with Chapter 20. I hope you'll support it~ “Long ago, I understood that no one had wanted me to come into this world.” “To survive, you have to pay a price. Whatever you gain, you have to give something in return. Nothing in this world comes for free.” “Desire is nothing to be ashamed of.” “But those who take and take without giving anything back...” “, will be cursed.” As a person, Tsushima Reo has a serious personality flaw. It's as if there are no negative emotions in his heart. He doesn't feel sadness, fear, jealousy, dread, or even emptiness. He's the eternally happy child from a fairy tale: cheerful, affectionate, helpful, and eager to be needed. He can grant almost every human wish and accept every kind of ugliness in human nature. But there's one condition: You must be able to bear the price he demands. [Reading Guide]: 1. My take on Alluka, plus an original-character setting! 2. OOC, with personal headcanons and a few changes to Dazai's backstory 3. I'm a slow typist and can't promise daily updates, but I generally won't abandon a story 4. I'm emotionally fragile, so feel free to drop the story without leaving a comment 5. A short story of around 400,000 words 6. Cover artist: Mihuashi - Lin Shi Shiqi. The artist did an amazing job!

Cheng Yuan is a legend, forever! Next story: On the Compatibility of Love-Brained Characters and Sports Anime by Di Yang The tennis club members noticed that their new captain had a lot of little secrets 1. Every lunchtime, he'd take his phone and go up to the roof to make a call by himself; 2. While supervising practice, he'd always find time to reply to messages on his phone; 3. He brought three lunch boxes every day: a generous lunch, cute snacks, and honey-lemon slices for an energy boost; 4. After school, he'd sometimes leave his childhood friend, the vice-captain, behind and walk off alone, saying he had a D-A-T-E! They were certain something scandalous had to be going on. Then, during recruitment season the following year, a cute pink-haired underclassman who drew everyone's attention as soon as he arrived at school handed in an application to join the club. He said, “If you make Yukki unhappy, you should die.” They got it. He was a hardcore fan. Theme: Everyone has the right to pursue happiness
