Synopsis

[Slowly fixing typos. The text was revised during updates; the official version is only on Jinjiang]

[My next novel, "Those Years I Spent Surviving in Another World", is now available. If you’re interested, please add it to your favorites!]

[Strongly recommend not muting the author’s notes: each chapter comes with a lighthearted, adorable bonus scene!]

An unremarkable immortal merfolk living in the Sea of Death was bored out of his mind. By chance, he obtained a damaged System core and gained the ability to summon players from another world.

What a dull thing a long life is. I hope these so-called players can bring me a little fun. With that expectation, Sykes summoned them.

As he watched the players explore the sea, trace its history, dig up treasure, and conquer other races…

Wait, is something wrong here?

Sykes: I’m a poor little thing? Are you talking about the merfolk lord who rules the entire Sea of Death?

Players: Don’t say it, we all understand (covering our mouths as we cry). Fly bravely, baby! Mom will always be by your side!

Sykes: …

Sykes: My lifelong ambition is to conquer the world? How come I don’t know that?

Players: (throwing open the window) Look, this is the kingdom I conquered for you.

Sykes: …Wait, isn’t this the neighboring giant octopus’s territory?

A fun and easygoing gaming adventure in another world. Come explore the ocean depths!

P.S. This is my take on the Fourth Disaster genre. No writing advice, please. If it’s not your thing, feel free to close the page. Please don’t bring up other novels in the comments here, or this one in comments on other novels. Thank you.

Coming soon: "I Have a Status Bar", the story of an edgy, dog-like girl who becomes a pioneering scholar.

By a twist of fate, Su Jiang learns that she’s the wicked female antagonist in a high-school romance novel. Thanks to her obsessive-compulsive tendencies, she makes a huge fuss over everything and ends up playing a major role in the romance of the male and female leads, who break up and get back together seven times!

The spoilers come with a not-at-all-flashy golden finger: a status bar that can only display progress bars.

Where’s the promised straight-A student System, invincible golden finger, and overpowered aura?! thought Su Jiang, a genuine eighth-grade edgelord.

Su Jiang has no intention of following the so-called plot, but the status bar is stuck above her head!

And every time she does something, a progress bar pops up. She can’t close it until she finishes! It’s as annoying as those red notification dots in games!

While she’s slacking off on her homework, a progress bar suddenly pops up with a ding

[Ding! Current homework completion: 88%.]

Only 12% left… Maybe I should finish it before going out to play?

As soon as she finishes her homework, the next progress bar appears

[Ding! Current progress in Unit 1 of math: 95%.]

Just 5% more and it’ll disappear! Su Jiang hesitates, then reaches for the math book beside her.

[Ding! Current progress in middle-school math review: 99%!]

Damn it! Su Jiang glares at the last empty bit of the progress bar.

1% 1% 1% 1% 1% 1% 1%, Aaaaah!

She leaps out of bed and dives at her desk.

…

When she reaches high school and the plot is supposed to begin, Su Jiang plans to be a quiet, well-behaved straight-A student.

Unfortunately

[Ding! Current progress toward dominating high school: 90%!]

A wild progress bar appears!

You all saw it, right?

It made me do it!!

[Ding! Current progress preparing for the national competition: 90%!]

[Ding! Current progress mastering XX game: 98%!]

[Ding! Current progress toward publishing a paper in an A-list journal: 80%!]

[Ding! Current progress toward singing a song without going off-key: 0.1%!]

What about the original male and female leads, you ask?

Everyone at Chengqian High is working their hardest to catch up with the school bully. Who has time for romance?

…

Years later, a reporter at the Mars space station interviews Professor Su Jiang, its designer and a leading scholar in several fields. He asks a question the whole world has been wondering about

“What keeps you so passionate and persistent in all these dry fields?”

Su Jiang, who has just spent all night grinding the progress bar for the "Friendship" spaceship to completion, pauses, then points above her head.

The reporter hesitantly interprets this: “You mean… keeping a positive mindset?”

Su Jiang, with a serious expression: “It’s my obsessive-compulsive disorder.”

“Haha, Professor Su Jiang, you’re quite the joker.”

Theme: Education is the best way forward
