Ever Since I Started Keeping a Crazed One as a Pet

The animal trainer Han Jingyi spent a whole year training a fierce bird of prey, from one that frantically bit through its cage to one that rubbed against his leg and begged for affection. When the apocalypse came, he got separated from his beloved pet on the way to safety. He searched everywhere, anxiously asking around, only to discover... The terrifying mutant outside, known as the Godslayer, seemed to be the pet that used to rub against his leg? And that wasn't all. He also heard that the Godslayer had a sworn enemy, an animal trainer who had humiliated and tamed it, playing with it for an entire year. The Godslayer was now offering a bounty to find him and exact revenge! Other humans: That poor guy is done for! Han Jingyi: That poor guy is done for! He excitedly ran to see the face of the poor guy on the wanted poster. Oh. The poor guy was me. Han Jingyi: My big, sweet pet turned into a psycho?! Just as he thought he was doomed, humans began awakening to special abilities, too. Han Jingyi's ability was that of a Tamer, allowing him to control puppets. Including the Godslayer who came looking for him. While everyone else avoided the mutants at all costs, Han Jingyi gave them new jobs: A spider-man with deadly venom in its mouth was controlled by Han Jingyi and turned into a novelist, typing with all six hands and diligently updating with 200,000 words a day. A fat electric eel that could collapse bridges and destroy cities wandered into a mountain village. Han Jingyi tamed it and put it to work generating electricity at the village entrance. It worked around the clock, seven days a week, and tearfully lost a thousand kilograms. A deep-sea anglerfish that used to impale people on its teeth and had a light on its head was tied up in People's Square and made into a streetlight. It willingly worked a 996 schedule, bringing light to humanity. Everyone else, every day: Find cover, hide in caves, climb trees, or dive underwater to escape the mutants! Han Jingyi, every day: Tame new mutants, ride a giant mutant moth through the sky, and control mutants to rebuild the base! Humans and mutants alike adored Han Jingyi. Jealous of one another, they started competing to work harder, laboring desperately for his affection. It was a battlefield of romantic rivals every day. Later, Han Jingyi's ability backfired, and his puppets could briefly control their puppeteer. The youth the Godslayer had transformed into controlled Han Jingyi and slowly drew closer to him. "Good master, why won't you let me rub against your head anymore?" Theme: None yet
