At first, Lu Yin thought it was a simple case of transmigration.
Life was no different from before he transmigrated. He found a nine-to-five job and even started dating the neighbor who had always helped him.
His boyfriend was tall and handsome, gentle and considerate, perfectly at home in public and in the kitchen, the ideal boyfriend in every way. There wasn't a single flaw to pick out.
It wasn't until later that Lu Yin realized he had transmigrated into a comic.
The smash-hit comic The Chosen One was a supernatural story set in a modern city. It took darkness and brutality to the extreme, with a grim plot that gleefully killed off major characters at every turn.
Lian Yu, an immensely popular character who was neither wholly good nor wholly evil, was born with a theatrical personality. His ability was impersonation. He wore multiple secret identities, treated reality like a game, and considered everyone an insignificant NPC.
His first secret identity was a core member of the protagonist's team, a passionate, sincere, sunny young man who treated the protagonist like a sworn brother.
His second secret identity infiltrated the villains' organization and became its number two. Brilliant to the point of seeming inhuman and shrouded in mystery, he pulled the strings behind the scenes and could be called the story's ultimate villain.
His third secret identity was an ordinary person, a gentle, harmless doctor who even started dating someone.
The first two secret identities egged each other on and watched the fun, treating everyone on both sides, readers included, like fools until the moment he revealed who he really was.
Lu Yin froze.
"Baby..."
His boyfriend called to him affectionately from behind. His strong body leaned close, full of longing, and he wrapped an arm around Lu Yin's waist, nuzzling the hollow of his neck.
In the comic, Lian Yu was heartless and cold. Life was a stage, and he followed that principle to the letter, playing the devoted boyfriend to perfection.
When he grew bored, he abandoned his lover. To keep his lover from exposing his identity, he schemed to have him die in a supernatural riot.
After his lover's death, Lian Yu even staged a "I'll never live on without you" suicide, seeing his role as the devoted boyfriend through to the very end.
And now, Lu Yin had only one month left before his death.
He decided to break up with his boyfriend.
But Lian Yu didn't seem willing to agree.
*
At first, Lian Yu had only wanted to have some fun. He thought that, like all the countless roles he'd played before, he could walk away whenever he wanted.
But it seemed he was the first one to fall.
When Lu Yin asked to break up, a crack appeared in that perfect mask for the first time.
Why?
Why was he leaving him?
