Emperor Chu Yin gets up earlier than a chicken and goes to bed later than a dog every day. His dark circles make him look like a wronged ghost. During his first summons to the bedchamber, he suddenly hears his consort squawk, [Your Majesty! You've been chosen to save the world!]
Chu Yin: ?
In the horror escape game "White Crow," players watch in horror as a man in imperial robes falls from the sky and crushes a story NPC to death.
The players go straight into a panic. With an NPC dead, how are they supposed to advance the plot?! Is this cosplay weirdo some kind of chuuni lunatic?
Just awakened, Chu Yin stares at the modern female ghost boss right in his face. The purely ancient emperor Chu Yin furrows his brow. "Insolent commoner! You disgrace yourself before the throne! Get down on your knees!"
The clawing, snarling female ghost suddenly feels an overwhelming aura of royal authority wash over her. Her knees go weak, and she drops to the ground with a thump.
The livestream chat: "???"
Could this actually be a real emperor?!
From then on, Chu Yin starts a 24/7 life of reviewing memorials by day and surviving horror games by night, without a single day off.
Chu Yin just wants to clear the game quickly and get a good night's sleep. Instead, he accidentally sets a new speedrun record. Facing his reward, the dark circles under his eyes, Chu Yin says, "I'm so sleepy. I'm done. I want to go home!"
White Crow: [Please choose a different wish.]
Chu Yin: "Send my hundred-thousand-strong army here!"
White Crow: [...Please choose a more realistic wish!]
Chu Yin: "I want to sleep with the chancellor!"
[Ding! Wish redemption successful!]
The next day, the enemy nation's chancellor, who was plotting to usurp the throne and become emperor, drops from the sky with a crash, killing the NPC in front of Chu Yin. He gets back up and raises an eyebrow. "King Chu?"
Chu Yin goes mad. "! That's not what I meant!!!"
An irritable emperor bottom suffering from chronic sleep deprivation × a peerless, ambitious chancellor top.
