A Guide to Keeping a God by Your Side

[A 50% advance-reader lock is in place. Thank you to everyone who supports the official release. Your support is the author's greatest motivation. Love you all, mwah~] The sorcerers' world treats Quan Ning (zhi, third tone) as a “god” whose power is out of control, so he has always stayed obediently inside a barrier, waiting for the day his power stabilizes and he can regain his freedom. He never expected a white-haired guy in sunglasses to show up one day. Well, damn! His everyday life took off like a rocket. Then one day, he watched the other man collapse on the ground, covered in blood, and awakened on the spot. Only then did it dawn on him that he really was a god... I suck at writing blurbs. I never want to write one again, sob sob QvQ Reader's guide: 1. Protagonist is the seme, paired as in the blurb. A committed one-on-one romance, no competing love interests. The protagonist is pitiful, sensitive, and suspicious early on; in the middle, he becomes detached and turns into the best possible tool. 2. At first, the protagonist is unsure of his biological sex, so “she” is used in the first few chapters. The protagonist is male, male, male. 3. A crossover with Five-Element Gods, Hozuki's Coolheadedness, and Touken Ranbu. Lots of personal settings and reinterpretations. If you spot a plot hole, I'll fix it as soon as I can~ 4. The revised version starts at Chapter 24 and runs through Chapter 38. If you've been following the updates, please take note, take note, take note! Coming soon: The next novel, [Jujutsu Kaisen] The Straight-Laced King of Curses Doesn't Know Fujiwara Masaha, the youngest legitimate son of the Fujiwara regent family, is a renowned and refined gentleman of Heian-kyo, famous for passing through a hundred flower gardens without a single petal clinging to him. Half a month ago, however, he vanished from all kinds of banquets. The missing Fujiwara Masaha: Thanks for asking. I'm in Hida Province, and I just got captured :) Because of a trap set by his bad friend Seimei, he decided to run off to the remote, uncivilized Hida Province. They say there's a monster here with two faces and four arms. The court branded him a traitor. Before Masaha even got to see him, he was arrested because of his noble status. In the dungeon where he was being held, he met this “monster.” Sukuna: What kind of useless little snack is this? Did you deliver yourself to me? Still, that noble status could be useful. Masaha: What an oddly cute little thing. He really has four arms. I want to collect him... Though he does seem like an idiot. In the end Sukuna realized that the useless little snack was refined, pretty, and delicious, but poisonous. It poisoned him to death on the spot. Masaha realized that the idiot was powerful and clever, but liked cursing people, and kept him alive from the Heian era all the way to the modern day. Reader's notes: 1. A light romantic comedy about a haughty, self-absorbed drama queen and a straight-laced man who believes himself supreme. I'm sorry, Great One, but I really do think this is a comedy. 2. A crossover with Jujutsu Kaisen, the original Onmyoji series, Demon Slayer, Inuyasha, Mononoke, Nura: Rise of the Yokai Clan, and others. 3. Besides the name in the title, it's also called The Thousand-Year Feud Between a Straight-Laced Man and a Drama Queen, or My Partner Is Upset Again, or The World Where Only Uraume Gets Hurt Was Born, or How Did the Pure Love Between Two Scumbags End Up in a Love Triangle?
