A Guide to Protecting the European Emperor Healer

※※※※※ Please add my upcoming novels *After Quitting, He Returned to the Village to Retire* and *Si Lu’s Dream* to your reading list ※※※※※ [Blurb] 1. The day monsters arrived, the whole world turned into a game. One moment, the calculus teacher was explaining a problem at the front of the classroom. The next, thunder and rain battered the outside world, and monsters burst into the classroom amid starlight, killing indiscriminately. As his classmates screamed in terror and pain, several streaks of white light shot through the window toward Shu Qianfang. A “walking stick” appeared in his hand, and he swung it at the monsters without a second thought. “Player’s talent compatibility exceeds 80%. Bind the Priest class?” “Player possesses a Priest’s staff. Bind it?” With danger all around, Shu Qianfang agreed to everything without hesitation. He had no idea what was going on. From that moment on, he became a feeble little healer who couldn’t carry a thing, dealt single-digit damage, and had the highest mortality rate. 2. The campus had become a living hell. Taking advantage of the chaos, Chi Jing pulled Shu Qianfang out of the classroom. He’d only meant to walk back to the dorm with him, but it turned out to be the luckiest decision of his life. After watching Shu Qianfang loot a skill book from a small monster’s corpse, Chi Jing’s eyes turned red with envy. He drew up the *Guide to Protecting Shu Qianfang*. When there’s a fight, he goes first. If there’s danger, the healer retreats first. Protect the healer under all circumstances. The healer gets first pick of the gear, first use of the items, and first crack at every treasure chest. Later, he added one more rule to the guide: Protector: Chi Jing. [Sweet, innocent, lucky bottom x cool-or-comical unlucky top] [Reader’s Guide: Must Read] This is the short version. For the full version, see the author’s comment on Chapter One. 1. I don’t favor either lead. I just want them together. The two protagonists will share an enormous number of scenes, and everything they get is determined by the plot. Fighting over who gets better treatment is pointless. Extreme top- or bottom-focused readers, please don’t read this. My books definitely aren’t for you, so don’t hesitate: run! (Shouting.) 2. Don’t make baseless accusations. Reasonable discussion of the plot is welcome, but I absolutely reject attacks based on differences of opinion that aren’t about values. 3. You don’t have to love it, but please don’t hurt anyone. If it’s not to your taste, click the X. There are thousands of great books on JJ; there’s no need to fixate on a little-known author’s work. ------ Game inspirations: *Don’t Starve*, D&D, *Warcraft*, and *League of Legends*. Some readers may wonder how these games can be combined. Roughly speaking, *Don’t Starve* inspired the crafting system and special bosses, *League of Legends* inspired the skills, and D&D and *Warcraft* inspired the tank, healer, and damage-dealer roles, wilderness areas, and some quest formats. I haven’t borrowed anything from their more complicated systems, because I haven’t played in a very, very, very long time and don’t trust myself to write them well. I’m keeping things simple.

He was never working again, not in this lifetime. He’d made up his mind: life mattered more than money. Returning to the village to farm might not make him rich, but at least he could live in comfort. His hometown had a mild climate and beautiful mountains and rivers. He could farm, raise fish, pick fruit, and, when he got bored, go into the hills to look for mushrooms and wild vegetables. He could sit at the village entrance with the elders, shelling melon seeds, chatting about gossip, and playing chess. It was an ordinary, leisurely life, perfect for a young person from China looking to retire. He hadn’t expected to make much money. As long as he could get by, that was enough. But somehow, he actually managed to make a success of it. He spent a little time each month buying fruit from local growers. In less than a year, he’d bought an orchard and was able to lie flat. He tried his hand at being a laid-back lifestyle creator, and his followers skyrocketed. He built a wooden cottage in the village and sold fruit and local specialties from the village, town, and county, gradually creating a stylish brand for himself and his hometown. Of course, he couldn’t forget his close friend who helped him, or the man who worked hard to support his lie-flat lifestyle with his cute, high-pitched voice... husband? Now he had money and a husband. He could really retire early.

I’ll keep it up for the rest of my life! #Wu Qingying: I want someone older. #Li Chengjing: Give me a chance, please, big brother QAQ ※※※※※ Upcoming novel ②: Please add my ancient historical reincarnation-and-arranged-marriage story to your reading list ※※※※※ *Si Lu’s Dream* Previously titled: *The Little Highness Will Never Bow to an Arranged Marriage* Also known as: *O Devoted Human, Please Wait Another Lifetime* or *The Runaway Little Highness and His Utterly Unlucky Fiancé* [Blurb] 1. After growing up, Xiao Shu, a deer demon, could never find the human who had raised him. One day, a demon hunter entered the forest. The man looked so much like his first caretaker that Xiao Shu assumed he was the man’s son or something, and latched onto him. The demon hunter was called Si Yu. Like the first caretaker, he took good care of Xiao Shu. He cooked for him, bought him clothes, cheered him up, and protected him whenever he was in danger. As he traveled with Si Yu on demon-hunting missions, Xiao Shu gradually grew accustomed to their life on the road, even though he still couldn’t find any trace of his first caretaker. He thought he would spend a century with Si Yu, then endure the pain of losing his beloved alone. But he died at the moment they loved each other most, leaving Si Yu to bear the pain instead. As he lay dying, Si Yu held him tight and made a solemn promise: “I will find you again, no matter what.” 2. When the Crown Prince of Heaven, Si Yu, descended to the mortal realm for training, he saved a deer demon named Xiao Shu. From then on, a pretty, coquettish, and mischievous little deer was always at his side. One day, his little deer disappeared. Si Yu’s temperament changed completely, and he searched the Three Realms from top to bottom like a madman. Rumor had it that the Crown Prince of Heaven had gone mad during cultivation. To rid him of his inner demon, the Emperor and Empress of Heaven requested a marriage alliance with the Divine Realm. As it happened, the Divine Realm’s young highness was about to undergo a major tribulation. The Divine Emperor and Empress calculated that the key to overcoming it lay with the Crown Prince of Heaven. The two couples hit it off, and the Divine Realm’s child was packed off to Heaven for a matchmaking meeting. Young Highness Ji Shu had no choice but to run away after failing to refuse the marriage, but the Divine Realm kept catching him and bringing him back. Si Yu, determined to remain chaste for his wife, was delighted. To be safe, he decided not only to help plan the escape himself, but also to send Ji Shu as far away as possible.
