Raising the Evil God's Corrupted Alter Ego

A wicked, insanely possessive evil-god alternate personality gong x a law-abiding, self-proclaimed ordinary-person primary personality shou.

Chu Yingxing wakes up after three years in a coma in the hospital, only to find that he's become a sickly weakling who owes a fortune and gets winded after running a few steps.

Even the world has become unfamiliar, with terrifying, uncanny rumors everywhere.

Chu Yingxing: "..."

Maybe I should just go back to sleep.

For certain reasons, the terrifying monsters and aberrations in Chu Yingxing's perception automatically change into ordinary things.

So sometimes he thinks his coworkers are a little strange.

For instance, his coworkers get on high alert and tremble with fear when facing some little animals.

Chu Yingxing: I don't get it, but I respect it.jpg

And then, not long after joining the company, he takes on an inspection assignment. The subject is a somewhat chubby, docile big dog. He completes the job with ease and submits the required video.

His coworker in charge of the assignment watches in silence as the aberration in the video acts perfectly obediently, allowing itself to be measured and even to have its abilities tested.

Then they look in shock at the slender young man before them. "How come it cooperated so well? It didn't attack you?!"

"No. The puppy was very well-behaved. Maybe you should bring some treats next time. Did I do the inspection wrong? Are you going to dock my pay?" Chu Xingcan gets nervous too, worried that his pay might be affected.

The others watching from the side: No! We can't do that! And the big shot's tastes are really something. He called a three-headed hound the size of an off-road vehicle a puppy.

Another time, he casually picks up a palm-sized little bird and brings it back to the office. His coworkers let out a piercing shriek and activate a Level One alert.

His coworkers: Big shot, please don't just bring an A-rank aberration into the office building! Aaaah!

After enough incidents, Chu Yingxing can't help quietly venting to his partner and boyfriend. "Am I really that weird?"

His boyfriend looks surprised and squeezes the back of his neck. "Of course not. They're making a fuss over nothing. I've never thought you were weird."

Chu Yingxing: That sort of makes sense, but something still feels off.

Aside from the occasional minor differences in perception with his coworkers, Chu Yingxing's life is going swimmingly.

His part-time job pays well, and his boyfriend is tall, long-legged, and handsome. Most importantly, he has a lovely voice.

He's just a little too clingy and jealous, and he's always talking about completely getting rid of people.

Chu Yingxing patiently explains the law to him, hoping he'll be just like him and become an ordinary, law-abiding citizen.

Much later, Chu Yingxing is restrained by an evil god, unable to move. The other has the same face as his boyfriend. Sharp teeth grip the flesh of his neck, while damp, cold, sticky, dark red shadows crawl up his ankles and slowly caress them. In a gentle voice, he says, "We were always one. Stay here and keep me company forever, all right?"

Haha... So my boyfriend really is an evil god. No wonder he never thought I was weird.

And how did I forget to explain to him that restricting someone's freedom is illegal, too!

1. Neither the gong nor the shou is normal. The protagonist's values do not represent the author's values. (Joins hands.)

2. Narcissus romance. They don't look alike. Don't read if that bothers you.
