Planter, But in a Farming Game [Lord of the Mysteries]

“An eternal, unchanging fog;

A barrier that freezes time and space;

An existence that embraces all things...”

Lan Ke opens his eyes and finds himself in a wasteland, surrounded by the mutated residents of Moon City.

Even more absurdly, they kneel and weep as they hail him as a divine messenger.

Lan Ke is utterly bewildered. The last image frozen in his mind is the restart screen for the corrupted save file in the immersive farming game he'd spent years developing.

[Welcome to Moon City. Begin your farming adventure...]

[Your identity: Planter, Level 1.]

[Use your hoe, sow seeds, and water them until your crops are ripe.]

[Tip: This area is polluted. Pure crops can cleanse pollution, stabilize spirituality, and soothe living creatures.]

With the familiar pastoral game interface to back him up, this terrifying situation from the start is no problem.

Lan Ke takes out his beginner's hoe and monotonously recites, “I am a Planter, come to this land to sow the seeds of purification bestowed by my Lord.”

The "Moon City Scripture" records: The divine messenger descended and bestowed the seeds of purification, giving the people food even in the dark of night. He is the ruler of abundance, the scepter of God.

By day, Lan Ke diligently farms, cooks delicious food, and produces therapeutic meals to nourish the people of Moon City.

At night, he offers all kinds of delicious dishes before the altar and softly recites an honorific name.

“Fool from another era...”

Above the Gray Fog, Mr. Fool lowers his gaze, and a seed lands in his palm.

At a Tarot Club gathering, Miss Justice curiously looks toward the new male member with the codename “Empress.”

A blurry figure is carrying a long object, something between a scepter and a hoe. His head is lowered, and he seems rather quiet.

When the trading session begins, the Follower of Mr. Fool speaks again, and the long table falls silent for a moment.

“I hear we can trade here. I can supply various pure crops on a regular basis to stabilize spirituality and cleanse pollution. Sequence ingredients, formulas, and information are all available for trade. If anyone needs anything, just name your price.”

Everyone stares in astonishment at Mr. Fool, seated at the head of the table.

Reader's Guide:

1. This is mainly about farming, food, and exploration. The protagonist is the Tarot Club's biggest supplier of provisions, and Fool is completely supportive.

2. If you haven't read the original, you can explore this fascinating world alongside the protagonist. The farming starts at a leisurely pace in the early chapters.

3. He'll get in touch with Fool first as a Follower, and will probably join the Tarot Club around the same time as Little Sun. The original plot will mainly be woven in through Tarot Club gatherings.

4. This won't cover "Circle of Inevitability". The protagonist also doesn't know the original plot.

5. The author loves worldbuilding and does their research. The original characters will be kept as in character as possible. As the plot develops naturally, some characters who don't affect the original main storyline too much may get a second chance.

6. The protagonist has no romantic pairing. Hope you enjoy reading!

Coming soon: "Klein's Traveling Cat"

[If you like it, please add it to your collection!]

While resisting the will of the Celestial Worthy, Klein's cat side, accidentally separated from him, feels rather melancholy.

Somehow, he slips through a crack in the Spirit World and transmigrates.

To make matters worse, he turns into a little black cat with only the abilities of an “Apprentice.”

The one piece of luck is that he's in Tingen at the very beginning.

Nothing has happened yet. There's still time to change everything.

But unfortunately, he's just a little black cat who needs to eat. He can't do anything.

To find someone who'll feed him long-term, Klein the Cat latches on to another version of himself, the complete Klein Moretti from this timeline.

From then on, he gets a new name: Meowlein.

Meowlein loves his name and loves staying by Klein's side.

But his feline nature is too strong to keep him still, and every so often he goes on a trip.

A proper house cat who loves and depends on Klein will bring back keepsake photos and gifts from his travels!

*

Klein gets saddled with a strange little black cat.

The cat is clever, almost like a person.

It understands human speech, wants piping-hot food, and needs a bath and its teeth brushed every day.

But it's still just a cat, one that keeps running off but always comes home on its own, even bringing back gifts.

He loves the photos and gifts it brings back!

The perfect cat!

But can someone explain why his cat also has to drink potions and advance through the Sequences?

As another expense piles up, Klein silently counts his gold pounds.

Reader's Guide:

1. A lighthearted, everyday story about Klein and his traveling-frog-style version, Meowlein.

2. Meowlein is incomplete, and is a cat version of Klein. Deeply influenced by his feline nature, he will inevitably be out of character.

3. Meowlein has incomplete memories. Although his abilities are limited, he'll find all sorts of ways to help Klein and save a few people along the way. This life will go much more smoothly!

4. This won't involve "Circle of Inevitability".
