Vividly beautiful, knife-wielding madwoman Host x cold, arrogant, double-standard System
A beautiful madwoman and her personal AI.
A perfect partnership turns into romance. Both are Alphas.

"Whoever tries to make me their canary, I'll skin them alive, pull out their bones, break their arms and legs, and chew up their flesh and blood."
"Let's each rely on our own skills and see who ends up the caged bird."

The canary is one of the enduring character archetypes in fiction.
A female physician is forced to give up her dream of attending school, a dream she once fought for even when she was beaten half to death.
A phoenix crown and bridal robes tighten around her neck.
A young heiress loses her family and has nowhere left to turn.
The future heir to a former business empire is kept as someone's plaything.
A jewel-like beauty catches the eye of someone in power. Her acting career is ruined, her reputation dragged through the mud, and online abuse and debt drive her to the brink.
Tender, doting affection slowly softens the stubborn backbone of a woman who once refused to "submit" even when a bottle was smashed over her head.
All in the name of love.
Everyone says they are lucky.
And so no one can hear the piercing wails and see the tears beneath all that splendid finery anymore.

The tall, voluptuous beauty crushes something in one hand. A viscous substance runs down her fingers.
Then she turns around, unconcerned.
"Mission complete. When are we leaving?"
The tall young man crouches down, his gleaming boots, polished to a mirror shine, stepping without hesitation into the mud all over the ground.
He holds a long saber in his hand, still streaked with fresh blood.
It's from the pest who tried to sneak up on his Host.
"Now."

Jin Que Qiu. The only villainous player to ever make it out alive from a horror infinite-flow world. Ruthless and peerlessly skilled, with superb acting chops.
Also one of the long-term senior quick transmigration agents exceptionally hired by the Abuse Fiction System.
Since the canary protagonists had an unusually high suicide rate, they offered an exorbitant fee to bring back a retired agent.
The people at the Main System hadn't expected the plan to work, but after glancing at the mission brief, one of them raised an eyebrow with interest.
"I'll take it."
"I want to see how many rounds of malicious torment these things that want to imprison people can withstand."
Planned arcs, not necessarily in this order. I'll start with whichever one inspires me most.
A physician imprisoned after being framed and barred from practicing medicine
A female general forced to give up her dream of becoming the greatest in the army
An actress with a ruined reputation and a destroyed career
A young heiress unable to inherit the family business, whose family has been destroyed
A female chancellor whose identity as a woman is maliciously exposed, then confined to the imperial harem
A cold, aloof master whose path to immortality is destroyed and whose Dao heart is shattered
I'll decide whether to add more later, depending on inspiration.
