Que Cheng closed his eyes, then opened them, and the laboratory before him had turned into a dilapidated cave abode.
Que Cheng: ?
Not only that, he had also been bound to a System. Its full name was "Helping the Currently Weak, Pitiful, and Helpless Male Lead Complete His Dragon○-Heaven Upgrade Journey," shortened to Little Helper.
Little Helper had barely booted up before it expertly started making threats, while also mastering the art of offering a date after a beating: fail to complete a task and you die; complete it and you get a reward.
Que Cheng: "You came from the year 6048?"
Little Helper proudly put its hands on its hips. "That's right! I'm a high-tech intelligent System from the future."
Que Cheng calmly replied, "Isn't your version a little outdated? We don't even have a version like yours at my place."
As if that weren't enough, he leisurely added, "In my era, the lowest version of a robot vacuum is PR9."
Little Helper, which was only version PR4: ???
After Little Helper begged him, Que Cheng reluctantly agreed to help the male lead now and then, but he still jabbed at it about once every two days.
Que Cheng: "Hey, is there a new version you can update to now?"
Meng Jin was a grassroots male lead from the ○-point genre. After being taken in by the master fate had chosen for him, he encountered a strange senior brother.
When he was bullied, his senior brother appeared and stood up for him.
When he came across heavenly treasures, his senior brother helped him get them, then gave them all to him.
When he underwent tribulation, his senior brother protected him.
Meng Jin: "Senior Brother really loves me."
Little Helper: ???
Little Helper pondered for two seconds, then watched Que Cheng, who was devoted to researching the wondrous treasures of the cultivation world, fall into thought once again.
No, this guy just takes all the good stuff for himself and gives you whatever he has left over!!!
[Reading Guide]
The story is from the shou's point of view. Yes, Que Cheng is the shou, but the System is not a romantic pairing! (angry)
I'll just leave the blurb here for now. If you like it, feel free to add it to your collection. I'll start posting it later.
My take on cultivation. It should be a sweet story, with no angst.
The gong grows over time; the shou is overpowered from the start (.
The System is a chatterbox sidekick, a cutie whom fun-loving people will adore teasing (?
The shou isn't exactly a good person, and neither of them is (.
Between the three of them, there are eight hundred schemes: Cheng and Meng have five hundred each, while the System is two hundred schemes in debt to them.
The title is what Little Helper wants to say (laugh).
Theme: Give someone a rose, and its fragrance lingers on your hand.
