Ye Lianyin, who had been frail and sickly, died, then came back to life as an NPC in a bizarre game.
[NPC Rating: E Rank (weaker than a slime, classified as a disposable item)]
[Mission: Stop players from clearing the game as much as possible
(Though you can only contribute to the atmosphere, NPCs who slack off will be recycled as trash~)]
The girl, who had finally gotten a healthy body, nodded. "I'll do my job properly!"
--
The receptionist at a shapeshifter company
A timid ghost bullied to death in a school horror story
The dowry maid for a ghost bride in a mountain village
A fanatical believer in a Great Old One summoning
They're all expendable ghosts who only serve as atmosphere in the games. And yet--
The shapeshifter Boss had its company's core secrets stolen by the receptionist.
The fanatical believer ended up stealing the Great Old One's power.
The timid ghost devoured the original school ghost story and became the new Mother of Horrors...
In short, thanks to Ye Lianyin's conscientious role-playing, she simultaneously became the No. 1 scariest Boss on the player forums, and... the No. 1 most beloved Boss?
The real dungeon Bosses, pushed to the side, trembled in fear.
E Rank NPCs are supposed to be easy experience for even beginner players! We're the ultimate Bosses in the dungeons. How did Ye Lianyin, a disposable little monster, steal all our spotlight?!
Reader's guide:
1. The female lead will act as a dungeon villain and match wits with players, and she'll also mess with other NPCs.
2. The female lead's moral boundaries are flexible. Readers who mind that should steer clear.
Theme: Self-reliance.
