Zhu Qing'an was an NPC. Then one day, a voice came from the sky: "An NPC has developed independent consciousness. Please report to the quick transmigration System."
When Zhu Qing'an opened his eyes again, he found himself bound to a "Take a Bullet for You" System.
The System told him all he had to do was take a bullet for the chosen one in each story and trigger the keyword "Take a Bullet for You."
Zhu Qing'an smiled. "All right." He was great at playing a sacrificial extra.
As an NPC, Zhu Qing'an was naturally obedient and sensible. The System also rated him as an excellent candidate for carrying out missions. But why was the keyword he triggered always "Together in Life and Death"?!
[World One: The Family Head's Affection] An obsessive, restrained head of a wealthy family as the top x An obscure actor raised as his adopted son as the bottom (no blood relation, and they are not registered under the same household)
The adopted son, cursed for having filthy blood running through his veins, feared and admired the unreachable family head. At last, he did the one useful thing he would ever do for him. When the blade was aimed at his uncle, he took the fatal blow in his place.
His mission complete, he was about to breathe his last when he saw the family head, his uncle, who had always kept his emotions hidden, lose his usual composure. His voice rang in Zhu Qing'an's ears, fierce and anguished: "You think dying will let you escape me? Don't even dream of it!"
[World Two: The Savior's Favor] An apocalypse powerhouse as the top x A savior whose body is a living vaccine, immune to the disease, as the bottom
He nourished the protagonist, who was treated as an outcast, with his blood. At last, he accompanied the protagonist to humanity's final refuge, only for the scientists to discover that his blood contained natural antibodies.
Fine. Saving one person or saving a whole bunch, it was all the same. Just as he gladly agreed to become a test subject, the male lead, who was supposed to become humanity's new leader, turned into its nightmare. Standing atop the refuge's dome with humanity's most powerful weapon in hand, he looked down, his face cold and resolute. "If you choose humanity, I'll make them all die with you."
[World Three: Love for the Machine] The emperor of an empire as the top x A robot subordinate as the bottom
As a robot without feelings, he had only two directives in his programming: kill the enemy and protect his master.
After risking his life alongside the empire's marshal and defeating the enemy forces, he should have returned to the factory in his battered condition to retire. But things went a little off course. As a combat robot, he discovered that he seemed to have caught a virus called "love-brain," and the emperor was its instigator.
"Can a robot understand love?" The emperor gently stroked his synthetic black hair. "It doesn't matter. You only need to pretend to love me."
[World Four: A Love That Turns Heads] An enemy prince who has endured humiliation and bided his time as the top x An optimistic, sunshine-like, sickly young lord as the bottom
He was a pampered but useless young lord, sickly and frail, who accidentally brought the male lead home badly wounded.
He became sworn brothers with the protagonist, willingly providing the protagonist's first pot of gold on the road to power and success. He never once complained as he played the fool and paid the price. At last, the protagonist rose again, reclaimed his power and status, swept across the land, and became a hero who united the realm. By the time his country fell and his family was destroyed, he was gravely ill and near death.
As he lay dying, he seemed to see that man lying beside him in the same coffin.
"You hate me for destroying your country, so how about I give myself to you as compensation?"
More worlds to be added.
