The Mysterious Throne

Also known as "Why Do All the Characters I’m Supposed to Win Over Want to Win Me Over Instead?" Tang Du transmigrates into a romance game with a cosmic-horror setting, where he is the governor of a desolate planet teeming with mysteries. As governor, he must always remain rational. Build up his territory, develop the economy, reduce the frequency of mysterious incidents on the planet, and save his people from the hands of heretics and madmen. Along the way, he crosses paths with four equally mysterious men: The wealthy head of a prominent family, a frail and refined astrologer, the ruler of an interstellar empire with supreme authority, and the most wanted criminal in the underworld, a notorious master assassin. The System tells him that as long as his targets’ affection for him doesn’t drop to zero, the game won’t end in a bad ending. As long as he continues to be loved, he can never truly die. Tang Du, however, thinks that if submission and reverence also count as love, then he’s sure to achieve immortality. ● Governor bottom x Evil God top; ● Strong pairing, one-on-one, happy ending, no secondary couples, no betting on love interests; ● This is a niche genre, with a slow-burn plot and a fairly stream-of-consciousness blurb. The themes involve redemption. I’ll write at my own pace, so feel free to read as you like; ● A blend of cosmic horror and occult elements, with some nonhuman entities and megalophobia thrown in. The story requires a lot of original worldbuilding (for example, changing Azathoth from an Outer God to an Old God), so please don’t nitpick the lore. My next book will be "The Entire School Transmigrates on the First Day of Classes". Please add it to your favorites~ An ordinary morning in 2046. Giant whirlpools suddenly appeared in the skies above locations around the world, sparking widespread panic over these bizarre phenomena. An industrial university somewhere inland was engulfed in dense fog, and over 30,000 students and faculty vanished without a trace. After investigating, the task force determined that the signal was coming from an unknown region beyond the whirlpool, possibly an alternate world. As one of this year’s newly enrolled student representatives, Gu Liangyi was among those who transmigrated. But unlike everyone else, the moment he crossed over, a prompt sounded in his ear: “You have been selected as the representative of Earth’s civilization. A live broadcast of your world has begun.” “Lead the members of your base and win your civilization a chance at survival.” Thus began the dimensional war that would decide the fate of the world. As the subject of a global livestream, Gu Liangyi not only completed all four years of university in front of eight billion viewers and earned countless honors and medals, but was also regularly summoned for warm, friendly chats with the principal. Back on Earth, he became a true global top-tier star, one without precedent or equal. Gu Liangyi, who just wanted to earn his diploma: “…” Whoever wants to be the savior can have the job. :D Theme: The world may kiss me with pain, but I answer with a song.
