His breakout novel was called "Ancient Gods Awaken: From the Start, I Transmigrated into a Human-Shaped Wishing Well," and it took off by riding the Cthulhu craze. Who would have thought that that very night, he would transmigrate into his own book and become the wishing well that had been contained by the Star Anomaly Investigation Team? Faced with countless twisted tentacles and bodies of unknown condition scattered across the ground, Xu Gui, forced to watch: frozen.jpg If only he'd known this would happen, he wouldn't have shoehorned in Cthulhu elements just to chase a trend! How is he supposed to survive this situation now?! The investigators, who had nearly lost their minds and succumbed to madness: That's what we should be asking! We want to know how we're supposed to survive in the presence of this terrifying ancient god, too!!! [Containment Number: S-3435] [Code Name: Wishing Well] [Characteristics: An ordinary-looking wishing well that may appear anywhere in the world. It was first discovered deep in the ■■■■ Desert, detected by Investigator ■■■. According to survivor accounts, its mimicked forms may resemble a snake or a turtle.] [Containment Description: The wishing well accepts the sincere wishes of any living creature. For further records, see the ■■■■ files. In addition, it can take on a human form. After close observation by several investigators, it has been confirmed as a type that may be approached, but anyone who makes contact must receive regular psychological treatment.] [Containment Measures: A building of at least 50 square meters, pleasant surroundings, friendly neighbors, three meals a day, a publishing offer once a month, and a vacation abroad once a year can keep the human-shaped wishing well calm. However, the true form remains unsolvable. Dr. ■ stated that perhaps only humanity's self-reliance, and an end to wishful thinking, could keep it at bay.] ※ Reading Guide ※ 1.

Cover illustration by @Shili Changhuan-Cabbage Take a look at the author's profile in the upper right "There's No Way I'm a Sweet, Naive Ancient God" Xu Li'an transmigrated. He panicked, because not only had he transmigrated, he'd also turned into a little kid. Luckily, he had incredible luck after transmigrating and met a kind guardian. His all-capable guardian took care of everything, from food and clothes to travel and lodging. All Xu Li'an had to do was go sleep in an organization where he could hold any title he liked. His superiors and coworkers were all very kind to him. Someone was always there to keep him company, he could have whatever he wanted for afternoon tea, and even the people who occasionally came in on business were very polite and brought him gifts every time. Xu Li'an nervously accepted the exquisitely wrapped gift: This is really for me?! Am I even allowed to accept something this nice? In reality The organization where he could hold any title he liked = the most powerful organization beneath the stars, ruling over all superpowered individuals The kind guardian = a false god known as the [World Serpent] The kind superior = the current Emperor of the Alliance The people who came in on business = the leaders of various organizations Everyone watched in terrified silence as he hesitantly accepted the gift: C-could it be that this ancient being doesn't like jewelry? Will humanity go extinct now?! * With the "care" of his superior, guardian, coworkers, and visitors, Xu Li'an lived a comfortable and peaceful life. Until one day. A madman with extraordinary powers broke through the many layers of defenses built by his superior and guardian while being taken into custody, and came face-to-face with Xu Li'an, who had just woken from a nap. The madman's pupils shook. He dropped to his knees with a thud and cried out excitedly, "My Lord, " Before he could finish, his usually rather disunited superior, guardian, coworkers, and visitors all pounced on him at once and clamped their hands over his mouth. Their faces were twisted, with a hint of grief and despair. Xu Li'an, clutching his cute dolphin pillow, looked utterly confused: Huh??? What's going on? Am I still dreaming? #Superior: He just said, "I voluntarily turned myself in." #Coworker: Yeah, that's right! #Guardian: Would it be so bad if he woke up? #Visitor: No... just let us live two more days! * [※ TOP SECRET FILE ※] [Research and Analysis Report on an Ancient, Mysterious, Human-Shaped Being: Concerning Ancient God ■■■] [...During a period of peaceful concealment, it mimics a white-haired boy with a cute appearance and sweet disposition, tailored to human preferences, and gives itself the name Xu Li'an.
