So You Aren't Human Either

[Pre-Release: Winning Back Earth [Cards]. Synopsis at the end.] Yin Bei, the Great Emperor of Fengdu, boss of the underworld, and ambassador for lonely souls across the three realms, was informed by the Matchmaker that he was bound by the red string of fate to Ao Jinyu, the little crown prince of the East Sea Dragon Palace. The Heavenly Dao itself had tied the knot. That dragon was still an egg. When the little golden dragon grew up, he decided that as a dragon of the new generation, he had to start by rejecting arranged marriages. He packed his things and left home to travel the human world. Then he rented a two-bedroom apartment from Yin Bei. Yin Bei looked at the new roommate standing before him, backpack in hand and wearing a bright, sunny smile. ...Anyway, first he had to pretend he was human. A few days later, Ao Jinyu, who punched bad demons and kicked evil cultivators, crossed paths with Yin Bei, who had nearly scared a vengeful ghost to tears. Ao Jinyu: "So you're not human either! You should've said so. I wouldn't have had to pretend for so long!" Yin Bei: "...What are you even pretending to be?" Ao Jinyu thought that his gloomy, unsociable roommate was actually a great person. He was always complaining that Ao Jinyu was a nuisance, while cleaning up his messes for him. He was handsome, too, and great at fighting. The more Ao Jinyu looked at him, the more he liked him. The whole East Sea Dragon Palace was a family of auspicious beings, though. Would they accept him bringing home a partner with a ghostly aura? Ao Jinyu: "Beibei..." Yin Bei irritably raised his eyes. "What is it? Which demon did you beat up this time? Do I need to collect the body?" Ao Jinyu tipped a bag of fist-sized pearls onto his desk, then eagerly leaned closer. "Do you like them? They're a specialty of my home." Yin Bei: "..." Things seemed to be heading in an uncontrollable direction. #ProtectMySecretIdentity##ThisDragonWantsMyBody##YouRanAwayFromYourWeddingForNothing# Ao Jinyu: "We're too far apart in age." Yin Bei: "I'm much older than you, too." Ao Jinyu: "Actually, I like older people! I was just acting tsundere!" Ao Jinyu: "His reputation doesn't seem very good." Yin Bei: "Mine isn't good either." Ao Jinyu: "I love cute and charming villains the most!" Yin Bei: "...Hah. What a hypocritical dragon." A scatterbrain and a grump [Pre-Release: Winning Back Earth [Cards]] The apocalypse came without warning. In a single night, the entire Earth vanished without a trace. When Yan Li woke up, still clutching a frying pan and a food basin, he was pulled into the Card Game of Civilizations Across the Heavens. It was a place where the gods went for entertainment, and anyone with enough strength could win anything they wanted. Ding-dong! Registration is now open for Game 17 in the beginner division. The winner will receive 1% of "Earth, planet of the Milky Way Solar System." Onlookers whispered: Is Earth the civilization that went bankrupt during the recent audit? Its energy was nearly all consumed by carbon-based lifeforms. There can't be much worth having left, right? Many agreed: Exactly! What would anyone want with that place? It's only good for experiments in wasteland cultivation! As the crowd roared with laughter, Yan Li clenched his fists. If you don't want it, give it back to us! The hot-blooded young man sat down on the ground and set up a street stall. Don't throw away unwanted cards! Trade them in for a stainless-steel basin here! A moment later, he signed up with a hand full of terrible cards. An impersonal mechanical voice rang out: Please fill in your registration details. Name: Li Civilization: Earth Self-introduction: An utterly ordinary Earthling. Starting with a hand full of terrible cards, he would win Earth back. The gods looked down from on high, watching mortals fight and choosing their own "followers" to represent them in the final battle. The gods had this to say about Yan Li: God of Light: Not refined enough. God of War: A trickster. God of Wisdom: Too impatient. A certain rebellious evil god: Hahaha, a stainless-steel basin! "I only ever draw one card. I bet that card is you, my ace." Chuunibyou troublemaking evil god x utterly ordinary (?) Earthling Theme: Have the courage to pursue true love.
