[Crossover] My Secret Identity in the Cult Is a Huge Problem

One day, Yan Ou, a D-list author and notorious procrastinator who always left his stories unfinished, suddenly transmigrated to another world full of demons and chaos, and was bound to a System.

The System told him that if he wanted to go home, he'd have to play certain characters and complete their stories.

Yan Ou: These secret identities feel like discarded characters I wrote for Cultist Simulator, right?

System: Yep. Turns out you haven't forgotten them after all.

Yan Ou: So, is there something wrong with putting all these lunatics in settings like a youth sports anime (or so they say) or a slice-of-life mystery series (not even close)...?

System: You call Prince of Tennis a youth sports anime? And Detective Conan a slice-of-life mystery series?

Yan Ou: ...

[Heart, Singer]: A young man so beautiful he seemed otherworldly hurried to the tennis courts. His long hair flowed behind him, his features were as lovely as a painting, and one look was enough to captivate the soul. His smiling eyes resembled rosebuds about to bloom. He apologized with a smile. "Sorry, I'm not late, am I? Rehearsal with the drama club ran a little long."

·

[Forge, Artisan]: The young artisan sat in a plush chair. His long, pale-gold hair and amber-gold eyes resembled a brilliant golden flame frozen in place. His face was pale and his frame slender. His voice was weak but steady. "As an artisan, if you provide me with suitable materials, I will create a work that satisfies you."

·

[Blade, Mercenary]: At the behest of the Black Organization, the elfin mercenary washed the blood from his long blade and the bloodstains from his face and hands in the river. His gorgeous pale-red eyes gleamed with a mysterious and dangerous light. He covered his eyes, sheathed his blade, and headed toward the bustling city. "Whoever sheds human blood, by humans shall his blood be shed."

·

[Awakening, Detective]: The young detective in a long coat wore a gentle smile and carried himself with refined grace. His neatly combed black hair and gold-rimmed glasses gave him a scholarly air. He read aloud as if reciting poetry. "To open certain paths, one must open oneself with a wound."

*The characters' basic concepts are based on Cultist Simulator, with many original details.

*This crossover includes many original details that differ from the source works, and many plot points from the originals will be changed. Please keep that in mind.

*The protagonist has no romantic pairing. The secret identities have pairings, and all are devoted romances.

Blade x Forge (mutual salvation, choosing to live in the face of death)

Awakening x Heart (a bloody love story set in a youth school)

*Their identities are never exposed. This is pure wish fulfillment. The protagonist and the secret identities have a clear author-and-character relationship, with firm boundaries around the roleplaying. The secret identities will eventually become independent.

Theme: Live like a spark, and fly ever upward.
