I Just Put the Flag Back Up After Taking It Down

Just transmigrated, and already at my wit's end.

My father is dead, my mother is gone, and my only remaining adoptive big brother is about to lose a hand and turn evil, becoming an early-story mini-boss.

But as the family's last hope, Xidi gradually realizes his character setup seems a little off, and the original owner, who isn't quite dead, keeps popping up to cause trouble.

To save himself, he also casually latched onto a hidden powerhouse outside the plot, and just as he's about to clear all his death flags

He turns around... Huh? Little brother, how did you transmigrate too, and become the protagonist?

After a car accident, Kemor transmigrated into a bizarre game world.

The men in this world are generally unwell. They keep flirting with him and calling him darling, which disgusts him so much he wants to hit someone every day.

But the Sun God said that if he followed the plot and defeated the Demon King, his elderly parents in another world would be able to live on and forget the pain of losing their son.

For Mom and Dad, he'll eat this crap...

But, bro, what have you done?! This plot is completely wrong!

And, Antoine, you're not even part of the plot. What are you doing here?

Content notes:

There are many couples and characters. A funny, melodramatic ensemble story, with new dramatic characters constantly appearing. The author has a wild imagination and writes whatever comes to mind, so don't read if that bothers you.

Main couple: Insigne (a hidden powerhouse who acts like he has nothing to fear), top x Xidi (a sharp-tongued, unlucky bottom who thinks everyone is out to get him).

Side couple 1: Antoine (a seemingly upright healer, actually the Demon King's son), top x Kemor (a fake heartthrob with cheat abilities, actually a shut-in hero), bottom.

Other side couples will be added as they're revealed in the story.

A fantasy world with magic and mythology elements.

Men can marry men, but there is no pregnancy. Children are conceived through a method like planting a tree.

P.S. I used a setup combining Chinese names and magic before. I thought people would accept it as readily as setups combining Chinese names, an empire, and mecha.

But unexpectedly, the more I read it, the stranger it felt, including to me and my friends.

So I changed the protagonists' names and the opening, and rewrote the first three chapters. Please understand.

The main plot and worldbuilding are still the same.

Theme: There's no use praying to the gods. You have to rely on yourself!
