The Scandalous Literary Prodigy

Qi Ye transmigrates into a parallel world and becomes an unemployed young man with no parents, fresh out of college and already out of work. He picks up his keyboard, planning to support himself by writing novels. But he discovers that as soon as he finishes creating a character, he becomes that person. Everything he does automatically generates a novel that gets published online. Great: he doesn't have to think up the plot, and there won't be any bugs. He just needs to make sure he stays in character! As he prowls through the night, a new guardian of the dark emerges. He resists the darkness, destroys the Main God, and leads everyone back into the light! As he travels through a city of sin, a new law enforcer appears. He establishes laws and transforms the city of sin into a land ruled by law. As he stands guard in a desert of death, a teahouse and its owner appear. He keeps lonely vigil, finding one lost person after another wandering in the desert and awaiting death. He gives them a cup of tea and a story, then watches as rescuers take them away. Qi Ye's novels grow more and more popular, and he earns more and more money. Countless people even find hope in his writing and hail him as a literary master. Others discover that all the novels by this literary master seem to depict the same events as they happen in real time. Every faction wants to find him. He seems to be the mastermind behind everything! Then Qi Ye suddenly realizes that he seems to have gained many followers and devotees. Some are leaders of nations, some are dragon clan chieftains, and some are winged people from the heavens! Wait, what? He's just a good-for-nothing novelist! P.S. The characters aren't limited to the ones in the synopsis. A lighthearted power fantasy with secret identities and a hidden mastermind plot. Content warning: This novel's setting includes the abolition of the death penalty. This doesn't mean the author supports abolishing the death penalty; the author doesn't support it either. It's just to provide a backdrop of a city of sin for the secret identity. Feel free to skip it if this bothers you. Upcoming novel: I'm the Big Shots' Alt Account (Mastermind secret identities + game becomes reality + one person makes up an entire guild) After the game becomes reality, all the accounts in Su Mu's guild become Su Mu's secret identities. Su Mu can log into those accounts, take on their appearances, and use their abilities. But his real self only inherits the abilities of a newly created support alt in the guild. Su Mu: All the big shots are me. I'm the only person in the entire gaming guild. Upcoming novel: Every Role I Play Is a Hidden Big Shot (Quick transmigration + secret identities + showbiz) Synopsis: During college, Yi Mang plans to work part-time to support himself. As it happens, a production crew is filming on a nearby mountain and needs an extra with two lines. The crew comes to the school to buy boxed lunches and happens to spot Yi Mang, so they choose him for the bit part. They pay a hundred yuan for half a day's work, so Yi Mang happily agrees. The role is a young monk the protagonist meets after climbing the mountain. He has only two lines: "Amitabha" and "This is for you." But after the show airs, Yi Mang is so handsome that viewers start guessing his character has a hidden identity and is secretly a big shot. Comments: "With a face like that, he can't be an extra." "Someone who looks like that might be a big shot." "That monk must be an important character, like the Buddha's chosen one." Then a System that feeds on people's imaginations takes Yi Mang into the TV show. Whatever people imagine about him comes true, and before long, his character quietly becomes a hidden big shot. When he returns from the TV show, the script in the real world has changed too, and everything that happened after he transmigrated has appeared in the script. He goes from an extra to the third male lead, and the director asks him to come back and continue filming. Since he's already experienced everything that happens, his acting amazes the director. By the time the show ends, Yi Mang's character has become the audience's beloved ideal. The director casts Yi Mang in his next show too, this time as a pretty-boy second male lead: an innocent young prince who lives and dies for the heroine. But viewers think, "Something's off about this character. No one could really be that stupid. He must be pretending." "Right, he must have an ulterior motive." So Yi Mang transmigrates into the TV show again. He obediently plays his young prince, but the people around him keep looking for clues and imagining things. As a result, the young prince becomes the great villain trying to restore the former dynasty. In the end, this character also becomes one of the audience's beloved ideals. Later, a reporter interviews him: "Why have you had such great opportunities since your debut, and why is every role you play so memorable?" Yi Mang: Actually, every role I take is either a terrible character or an extra. Would you believe me? I just want to make money. P.S. The TV shows follow the Korean drama format: two episodes are released each week, while the scripts are written, the show is filmed, and episodes air concurrently. The quick transmigration storylines connect to the real world. Theme: Make an effort to live.
