A Manga Artist's Glorious Secret Identity Roleplay

*The early part is a slow burn.

After dying, Shi Lili transmigrates into a manga world and plays out a script by opening secret identity after secret identity, hoping to win a chance at survival.

But she’s tired after acting in barely two episodes.

Shi Lili: Who wrote this ridiculous fake-selfcest plot, with me killing myself and falling in love with myself?! Give the secret identity actors a chance to live!!

Shi Lili: Oh, wait, I wrote it myself. Never mind. :)

Just when she thinks her script is dramatic enough, an even more dramatic mishap occurs

*

[God of Love]

Shi Lili takes up her new post, aims Cupid’s arrow at the manga’s male and female leads, and, with a twitch of her wrist, shoots the arrow straight at the male lead... and the second male lead.

The System gasps in unison with the onlookers: Oh my God!! Shi Lili, what have you done!!!

Shi Lili silently watches the manga’s male lead and second male lead kissing passionately in the street, and feels terribly guilty.

Shi Lili (with a wise look): Mm... Yes, this is exactly the effect I wanted!

System (in agony): Do you really believe that yourself?

[God of Light]

Shi Lili logs into the wrong account. Seated high upon the divine throne, she casually pulls open half her clothes in front of her followers. Her golden hair spills down as she licks her lips suggestively and smiles, enticing them.

Follower (staring blankly): G-God...

The System screams in terror: Aaaaaah!! Shi Lili, what have you done now?! What kind of God of Light seduces her own followers? You’re out of character!!!

Shi Lili (stubbornly refusing to admit defeat): Actually, this is all part of a carefully prepared script...

System (on the verge of a breakdown): I’ll ask again: do you actually believe that yourself?!

[God of Darkness]

The manga’s plot has changed so much that Shi Lili grits her teeth and decides to take a gamble. In a steady voice, she orders her followers that from now on, they must not beat or kill any high priests serving the God of Light. Everyone is to live in peace.

Then she clasps her hands in front of her chest and declares, “God loves all people.”

Followers (stunned): B-But...

The System is too stunned to make a sound. It watches the troublemaker who calls herself a third-rate manga artist stir up chaos, its heart dead as it awaits the end.

But, somehow, this world seems to have been saved?

*

The little God of Love breaks free of its shackles and now brings love only to those destined to find it.

The God of Darkness willingly submits to the God of Light, who clumsily learns to express his feelings.

All the people loved by the gods live in happiness, and the world is free of strife and war.

This is an age of peace, where humans and gods coexist!

And Shi Lili, who accomplished all this on her own, becomes the one true god above all the deities of this little world.

Kami Shi Lili (never forgetting her original goal): Yay, it’s so great to be alive~☆

Tips:

1. Extremely, overwhelmingly chuunibyou. Some side characters will have one-sided crushes on Lili’s secret identities, but Lili won’t fall for them. She’ll only push the plot forward without mercy.

2. This novel focuses on the love and hatred between secret identities. Multiple identities will appear at once. None of the big-shot identities she plays will be exposed, and neither will her real identity.

3. Lili has more secret identities than the ones mentioned in the blurb. Some haven’t been revealed yet. They aren’t necessarily gods, but they’re all big shots. Expect plenty of, “All these big shots are actually me?!”

4. The manga’s male lead and second male lead would never fall for each other. After the incident in the blurb, they spent several days throwing up, then both climbed up Mount Kongtong. ( )

5. I’m terrible at naming characters. After much thought, Lily seemed more suited to this story’s world, so I named her Shi Lili!

6. Brain storage location. Please be gentle with the author. Writing is hard. If this isn’t to your taste, quit while you’re ahead. TT

7. The heroine’s secret identities include both men and women. Some identities will be deleted from the story, just so you know in advance.

Theme: The meaning of life lies within yourself. Live in the present
