After dying young, Wen Shuyu was bound to a System and became a professional cannon fodder character for the Space-Time Administration.
He dutifully played his role as cannon fodder, but then the plot started taking increasingly bizarre turns.
#Wasn't I supposed to be cannon fodder? Why does everyone like me now?
[The stand-in starlet in an entertainment industry story]
A vain, ill-tempered starlet who did not know her place threw her weight around because she had someone powerful backing her, and scandals followed him everywhere.
In the original plot, he was dumped as soon as the white moonlight returned home, became a laughingstock, and eventually died in a car crash, shattered and disoriented.
But the people who had once hated Wen Shuyu began to look at him with growing ardor.
They knew he was foolish, frivolous, and empty-headed, yet they loved him.
They were all waiting for him to be abandoned, so they could carry the little cat back to their own nests.
[The strategist betrayed after the rabbit is dead and the hounds are cooked, in a time of chaos]
The puppet emperor used his shamelessness, ruthlessness, and scheming to become an emperor for the ages, step by step. Wen Shuyu was the sharpest blade in the emperor's hand.
In the original plot, he helped the emperor eliminate rivals and made countless enemies, only to receive a cup of poisoned wine in the end. The entire court applauded.
But later, the whole court became Wen Shuyu's loyal supporters, eagerly plotting to kill the emperor.
#If I become emperor, will that immortal-like gentleman finally spare me a glance?
[The hypocritical villainous holy son in a Western fantasy story]
The holy son had an angel's face but a demon's heart. He framed the pope, showed disrespect to the royal family, and blasphemed against the gods.
In the original plot, the protagonist tore away his compassionate mask, and the furious mob tied him to the stake.
But in the end, everyone who hated him prostrated themselves at his feet and kissed the hem of his robe.
The holy son was cold, hypocritical, and heartless, yet he was the world's only savior.
[The fallen young master, cannon fodder in a Republic-era story set amid chaos]
The once wealthy young master, who had lived in luxury and excess, went bankrupt overnight and became an object of ridicule, like an actor or entertainer.
[The tool-like master in a xianxia story]

Other worlds to be decided.
