Song Zou has been a devoted danmei reader for ten years. He loves wholesome stories with good values and couples who dote on each other, but he spends most of his time in the comments of depressing stories tagged "We're serious about tormenting the bottom, but the scummy top's cremation arc can just be for show," where he argues with everyone. His mission is to annoy authors who write like evil stepmothers and readers with no brains. He's written one revenge-fantasy fanfic after another, earning himself the nickname "the cremation-arc literature troublemaker."
As he puts it: "Every unlucky protagonist-bottom deserves someone to save him, and every scummy top who should be stripped of his humanity deserves someone to send him packing. If you don't scatter the scum top's ashes, what kind of cremation arc is that?"
At last, his persistence attracts the Scum Top Punishment System, and he begins a journey of transmigrating into revenge stories to torment scummy tops.
System: "Host, since all the readers are biased toward the top and you're the only one on the bottom's side, I can only give you the role of a minor character. The conditions are a little rough, so bear with it."
Song Zou: "No problem."
System: "Once you enter a small world, you'll have to rely on yourself. We'd better bring some local specialties in advance. What do you want to take?"
Song Zou: "An aphrodisiac will do."
System: "...Do you want to bring anything else?"
Song Zou: "Then bring some tonics for kidney health and vitality too. Just in case the protagonist-bottom meets his true love, we should have some ready for him."
System (completely flustered): "Host, our goal is to punish scummy tops and save protagonist-bottoms, not make scummy tops lose their... abilities!"
Song Zou (raising an eyebrow meaningfully): "You don't understand. In some people's eyes, a scummy top can do anything and still be forgiven. There's only one thing they can't forgive: taking aphrodisiacs."
"How can a top who can't go seven rounds in one night even call himself a top? The readers may be fiercely protective of the scummy top right now, but if he loses that thing, they'll be the first to stomp him into the ground!"
System: ...It didn't understand, but it was deeply shocked!
[Before You Read]
1. The top is the System, and it can take human form later.
2. More details will be added if I think of any.
