They were suddenly trapped in a game.
Before the game began, a voice told them:
Of everything they possessed, two things would be chosen to become their abilities.
As a fantasy novelist, Yu Qing gained the golden finger of his new book's protagonist. Unfortunately, he also got the villain's debuff: partial blindness.
["Now, I shall announce a message."
The voice spoke unhurriedly, with a hint of amusement.
"Fugitive Yu Qing has taken more than ten lives. What a heinous criminal. His title is hereby changed to 'Criminal,' and he gains the ability to have all abilities. One Wishing Stone is now offered as a bounty for his life. Brave fugitives, the task of ridding the people of this menace is in your hands."
At the same time, everyone except Yu Qing received a bounty notice on their phones:
Name: Yu Qing
Title: Criminal
Ability: 3
Bloodshed: 11
Bounty: 1 Wishing Stone
(Note: Killing this person will not increase your Bloodshed.)]
-
Someone glanced at their phone, as if this were nothing new. "They've issued another wanted notice for Yu."
"Seriously? They still haven't given up?" His companion curled his lip. "The bounty's gone through the roof, and the Prophecy Society sent people after him just a few days ago. Not one of them came back."
"Let's just watch for fun. It has nothing to do with us anyway."
Everyone knew Yu Qing was this game's bug, didn't they?
No matter how many people went after him, or how powerful they were, anyone who hunted him down...
Never came back.
Meanwhile, Yu Qing was thanking the Prophecy Society for its generosity.
Thanks for sending me more underlings again. (Not really.)
-
Yet even Yu Qing, who was practically mythologized and thought to be omnipotent, had someone he was utterly helpless against.
"Oh dear, what's the matter, kind soul? The team you placed all your hopes in pushed you out here at a time like this."
Yu Qing straightened the collar of the man's rumpled clothes. Not far away lay the monster they'd just dealt with rather brutally.
They stood close together. The light on Fang Jishou was still diligently healing Yu Qing within a one-meter radius.
"..." Fang Jishou's gaze shifted, though it was hard to tell where he was looking. Even in this situation, there was no disappointment in his eyes, only that infuriating calm. "I understand. You win."
"For the rest of this time, I'll be yours. Will that do?"
Yu Qing looked at him in silence for a while.
Then he suddenly let go in annoyance and stood up. "Tch."
