After Returning from the Infinite Game

There are always people who seem like the protagonist of a story: they escape from a horror game, shoulder the responsibility of joining their companions to defeat the monsters that escaped alongside them and save the world, and end up living in an ordinary citizen’s home for one reason or another. By day, they play the part of an ordinary high school student; by night, they fight monsters and level up. The ordinary citizen is kind and good-hearted, always forgiving the protagonist for coming home late, a gentle harbor from the storm. Jiang Yujin is the exact opposite of that ordinary citizen. He runs a detective agency on the brink of bankruptcy, is sloppy and disheveled, and spends his days doing nothing. The protagonist goes to school during the day and fights monsters after class, then comes home at night to do his laundry and cook for him. But even a couch potato has to learn to turn himself over. Faced with a budget deficit, Jiang Yujin briefly gets his act together. While the protagonist battles monsters, he helps someone find their cat. While the protagonist desperately protects the school from monsters, he flirts with people at the Special Investigations Division for Anomalous Species (?). While the protagonist searches for clues about the big bad behind it all, he puts on a little dress and pretends to be a gorgeous woman from a dating profile to meet someone he met online. While the protagonist and his companions battle the big bad, he... he stays up late playing mahjong, then collapses dead outside his own front door. The protagonist is in danger... The corpse lying outside the front door vanishes. Beside the enormous monster’s corpse, under the gaze of the protagonist’s party, the man’s white hair whipped back in the wind. His blade was as white as snow, streaked with winding trails of blood. In the silence, Jiang Yujin, an ordinary citizen, lowered his gaze, leaned on the hilt of his knife, and slowly bent over: “Ugh, ” It really was a bad idea to drink those two little glasses after playing mahjong. The protagonist’s party: “...” Xu Tonggui, captain of the Special Investigations Division for Anomalous Species, is the living King of Hell in everyone’s eyes, a workaholic with no life outside his job. Everyone thinks he’ll stay single forever. The members of the special investigations team think so too. Until one day, they see their captain pinning someone whose hair is so messy you can’t see his face against a car, gritting his teeth as he asks in a low voice, “Drinking again?” A broad hand brushes aside the hair covering half the person’s face. The one pinned against the car glances over That day, the team members learn two things: 1. Never underestimate someone who doesn’t bother with their appearance. 2. Their captain has damn good taste. #An unreliable grown man suddenly gets his act together, but not entirely# #Your guardian is still your guardian# #The man behind the high schooler saving the world# ① One-on-one, happy ending. The bottom is the strongest working stiff on Earth. Neither lead is a good person in the conventional sense. The top is more of a background character at first. ② A product of a wildly wandering imagination. Chuunibyou warning! I just like gloomy types and white hair, that’s all. ③ The original blurb focused on the romance, but after thinking it over, I decided the main plot made a better blurb. Sorry for the change! ④ The blurb has been screenshotted. The cover is an authorized template and isn’t unique. ⑤ The top is Xu Tonggui. He is the captain of the special investigations team, and he is not the same person as the high schooler saving the world! Coming soon: Straightening Out the Villain Successfully [Quick Transmigration] Blurb: Blurb: Chen Luosong is as calm and steady as a pine tree, has a stable temper, and looks good when he smiles. He’s an outstanding employee on the transmigration bureau’s villain reform team. He has reformed all kinds of villains, including but not limited to a rebellious young heir who’d gone off the rails, a minor celebrity who’d taken the wrong path, the Demon Lord’s son who’d been banished from the demon realm, a little prince secretly born in the cold palace, and an illegitimate imperial heir struggling to survive on a trash planet. A solitary pine will quietly stay by your side until spring brings warmth and light. Even on a desolate planet, brilliant flowers can bloom. Chen Luosong exceeded his villain-reform targets during his contract period. Now all he has to do to retire early is revisit the worlds where he completed his assignments. Except there’s a problem with the world’s algorithms. When he’s away, events seem to race off in absurd directions as if chased by a dog. [World One] The rebellious, unruly young master had thrown himself into ruin and become a complete mess. His butler helped him home, one step at a time. The butler kept walking with him, through every moment of loneliness and helplessness. When he finally got his life back on track and returned home full of joy, he learned that the butler had resigned. Many years later, amid a sea of people, he saw the face etched into his memory once again. And a guy by his side who was grinning like an idiot :) [World Two] An actor who’d been blacklisted after offending the wrong people was being pushed toward a drinking table. The man seated at the head of the table smiled gently, pulled up his loosened collar, and led him to the silver screen. On the day he won the Best Actor award, he learned that the other man had sold all his possessions and disappeared without a trace. They met again on a famous island, where the newly emerged top-tier star was holding the other man’s hand and smiling brightly. [World Three] The Demon Lord’s son, banished from the demon realm, was adopted in the human world by a kind but sickly mortal. When he returned after reclaiming the demon realm, ready to take the mortal away for treatment, he found a ruined house and a lonely grave. He heard that the leading disciple of the immortal sect, whom the righteous sects had placed their hopes in, had a beloved he carefully cherished. [More worlds in development] ① One-on-one. In some worlds, the bottom gets together with the top, and in others, they don’t [highlighted] ② The order of the worlds is undecided. I’ll write whatever takes my fancy. Theme: Strive to live
