Does the White Moonlight Have to Be a Sacrificial Extra?

There is always a mysterious character by the protagonist's side who gives them cheats and support without asking for anything in return. In the end, they die to spur the protagonist to grow stronger, ensuring they will never be forgotten.

Read as the male lead's pale moonlight, written as a disposable tool.

Su Ran is an outstanding employee of the quick transmigration bureau, specializing in playing the early-dead pale moonlight by the protagonist's side. After completing his role in guiding the male lead, he uses a faked death to end the final act and help the protagonist reach the pinnacle of the world.

The bad news is, why do all those protagonists go crazy after he fakes his death?

[Script 1: Superpower-story protagonist x gentle senior]

The boy was abused until he suffered a mental breakdown. When his powers awakened, he lost control and displayed overwhelming destructive potential. The Superpowered Management Bureau judged him a high-risk individual who had to be destroyed.

Before the tribunal, it was a young senior who shielded him. The young man vouched for him and taught him step by step how to control his power. But before he could thank him, a sudden disaster swept everything away.

The superpowered man faced every danger alone, doing everything he could to get him out of the contaminated zone and trading his life for the boy's only chance to survive.

Amid the twisted crimson scene, the young man's voice remained gentle: "Live on. Your life will be more brilliant than mine."

[Script 2: Reborn-story protagonist x friend who dies young, the protagonist's pale moonlight]

In his previous life, the protagonist did everything he could to save the world from the apocalypse, only to be betrayed and killed. Even his remaining consciousness and mind were eroded by contamination.

He lost all faith in humanity. After being reborn, he willingly succumbed to the contamination, determined to sacrifice his life and drag his enemies from his previous life to hell with him.

But before the ritual could begin, the only friend who came to his side paid the fatal price for him, becoming the sole sacrifice to die.

With the last of his strength, the young man embraced him without hesitation, his body being torn apart by psychic energy. "Don't be afraid. No matter what happens, I'll always be by your side."

[Script 3: Interspecies-story protagonist x close friend who joined the enemy faction]

The protagonist of the future was once merely a subject in a genetic modification experiment. During the painful experiments, only that clear, cool voice offered him salvation.

It belonged to the boy who had been modified alongside him. Because of his exceptionally high psychic power, he became the most trusted blade in the hands of the research institute's leadership.

The boy promised to take him home, but the protagonist couldn't understand why his status had changed and saw it as a betrayal.

At last, the experiments ended.

The protagonist was secretly taken out of the laboratory. The first piece of news he heard after seeing sunlight again was that the boy had been exposed for secretly helping the test subjects escape, then fed to a new experimental project and killed without a trace.

In a damaged recording, the boy's voice was hoarse and indistinct.

I'm sorry. I may not be able to keep my promise to take you home.

He said, "I wish you freedom."

P.S.:

1. All the protagonists are the gong's secret identities. The reason involves spoilers, so I won't explain.

2. A no-brain indulgence story. The gong and shou only have eyes for each other.

3. No switching or controlling the dream interpretation, and no insulting the characters. Don't bring unrelated nonsense into the comments if you're not here for BL.

4. A series of stories set against an urban-superpower backdrop, with a small amount of Lovecraftian contamination and disaster elements.

5. Some stories involve faked deaths, fake tragedy, and pseudo-BE. The entire story ends happily, so you're welcome to read if you're okay with that.
