[Coming Soon 1] Host Doesn't Play by the Rules (Quick Transmigration)

After Xie Mingxi dies, he gets bound to a System. The System declares with absolute certainty: [You are no longer the supreme ruler. You have to follow the script I give you and stick to the usual tropes. That's what audiences like.]

Xie Mingxi, who diligently served as emperor, can't understand these mindless tropes. Believing that every extra day alive is a bonus, he pays the System no mind and becomes more and more unrestrained.

* Ancient-world arc

System: You are now a powerful king. By the usual tropes, you'll fall in love with the heroine at first sight, leave your three thousand consorts waiting in the palace, and take meticulous care of her. When the male lead torments her body and heart, you'll take her in and protect her. In the end, you'll let her go back to the male lead and support their love.

Instead, Xie Mingxi treats it like a list of achievements: first, he makes sure the people have enough to eat and warm clothes to wear; then he bleeds the male lead dry; finally, he unites the kingdoms.

Xie Mingxi, who has thrown everything into chaos, even claims: The male and female leads may have become nobles of a fallen kingdom, but they're locked up together every day. Isn't that the HE you've always wanted?!

* Entertainment-industry arc

System: You're now an unknown extra in the entertainment industry. By the usual tropes, you're the heroine's most loyal knight. Introduce her to all your connections, give her all the money you earn, and distract netizens when she's being cyberbullied. In the end, you'll help her reach the peak of the entertainment industry.

Xie Mingxi: Wow! An airplane! Wow! Air conditioning! Wow! Takeout! (He sounds like someone who's never seen the world.)

Xie Mingxi becomes a top-tier star and spends every day enjoying life. But he still completes his mission perfectly. After all, whenever people mention him, they have to mention the heroine too. Sure, it's all negative, but doesn't that count as another way of "reaching the peak of the entertainment industry"?

* Western fantasy arc

System: This time you'll be the male lead, a high priest of the Church of Light. The heroine is the Saintess of Light. You don't have to worry about being used. Can't you just enjoy a nice romance? Audiences love sweet romances!

Xie Mingxi: Plague is rampant and war rages everywhere. The spark of new ideas has already been lit. How can I waste time on romance?

System: Put that in plain language!

Xie Mingxi: Well... I want to add fuel to the fire, so more people can escape their suffering sooner.

System: Do you just want to watch the chaos unfold?!

Xie Mingxi: Well... can't it be both? Hehe.
