Today's Secret Identity Is Also on the Verge of Falling Apart

Blurb: Yue Lingzhen bought a full-dive game called "Tales of the Supernatural." Players could choose to become a powerful great demon and revel in the thrill of battle, or hide their identity and fall in love with an NPC in a romance worthy of poetry and moonlight. Already a formidable fighter in real life, Yue Lingzhen didn't hesitate to choose the first route and beat the game. The game was divided into three time periods. A Thousand Years Ago You are the archrival of the legendary King of Curses. The two of you are destined never to rule together. In your eyes, he is an obstacle on your path to becoming king. Yue Lingzhen: Two kings can't share the same throne? Nonsense. There can only be one king in the world. A Hundred Years Ago You are close friends with the legendary Lord of Demons. In your eyes, he's just about good enough to drink and laugh with, and his son seems to have what it takes to become king. Yue Lingzhen: Then I'll just have to become the king's worthy opponent. Ten Years Ago You are a fox-shaped cursed spirit who has been imprisoned beneath the Gojo family's estate for a thousand years. The current head of the Gojo family accidentally frees you and binds you to him. He goes around shouting that he's "the strongest" every day. In your eyes, this white-haired guy has something seriously wrong with his head. Yue Lingzhen: I love pinning "the strongest" to the ground and wiping the floor with him. After finally beating the game, Yue Lingzhen angrily quit. Yue Lingzhen: I don't think this game has two routes at all. Every NPC is obsessed with romance. This has to be the worst game development team I've ever seen. But after returning to the real world, Yue Lingzhen discovered that he could see ghosts, and his strength was rising by the day, soon matching his in-game self. He couldn't shake the feeling that something was wrong. Only after he ran into the people he'd once known, one after another, did he finally understand. Oh, so the worlds have merged! Reader's Guide: 1. Lots of personal additions, bugs everywhere, out-of-character characterization, and elementary-school-level writing. If that's not for you, please don't read. 2. The story may be revised from time to time. 3. I'll add more if I think of anything. Screenshot of revision dated 2022.10.17. Theme: You are my sun, moon, and stars.
