Making a Fortune Through COC [Tabletop Roleplaying]

Lu Weirui, a well-known Call of Cthulhu tabletop role-playing streamer, is dragged into a real-life game. Here, having your character sheet torn up means death, the truth means madness, humanity is as insignificant as dust, and everything is chaotic and uncanny.

After finishing the beginner scenario, Lu Weirui discovers that the game's credits can actually be exchanged for wealth in the real world.

But the deity he accidentally charmed in the beginner scenario appears in every scenario he takes part in.

When a player encounters a Dark Young of Shub-Niggurath:

Other players: 'Holy crap, it's a Dark Young! Run!'

Lu Weirui, utterly confident: 'Hey, honey! Did you bring the kids to see me again?'

Lu Weirui: Even though I can charm the Black Goat, rip Deep Ones apart with my bare hands, and kick Byakhee, I know I'm a good investigator.
