Game Re-Login in Progress

After clearing the levels of an infinite game, Li Jin was visited by the god who ran it. In a bewitching tone, the god promised him the chance to make any wish come true.

Whether it was a legendary item, the rights to run a game instance, or even becoming the supreme god of the game, the god would fulfill and embrace every desire. This was the honor bestowed upon the First Player.

Li Jin: Oh, sure. Let me see if I can retire and lie flat.

The god: ???

The game's points could be exchanged for real-world money at a one-to-one rate. Li Jin had calculated it carefully: the wealth he'd saved up was enough to let him lie flat for the rest of his life without worrying about food or clothing.

Why wait to leave? Who would want to spend every day doing this kind of high-risk work?

Hah. Not him, that's for sure.

After leaving the game, Li Jin got his wish and began living a laid-back life.

Until one day, while he was eating at a Western restaurant, he lifted the lid from his plate and found a rather sanity-shattering mass of flesh writhing on the sizzling hotplate, its huge, heavily made-up eyes gazing into his.

"Do~you~want~to~eat~me~?"

The waiter fainted on the spot. Li Jin expressionlessly put the lid back on and wondered what had gone wrong with the way he'd opened it.

A painting that drove people mad, a train with no records that pulled into the station at midnight, a virus that spread without warning...

One after another, the game instances he'd once cleared began appearing in the real world. At last, he realized something was wrong.

The National Anomaly Response Bureau and the top guilds from the infinite game stepped forward at this moment, releasing some information to reassure and guide the shaken public.

Among the information they shared, they all mentioned one name.

Player L.

This codename stood for strength and miracles.

They publicly called on L to come forward and lead humanity through this unprecedented disaster.

Hidden in the crowd, Li Jin watched indifferently as a hand reached toward him from the screen, weighing the pros and cons.

But the next second, the broadcast's call to action switched to another image.

The god who ran the game smiled warmly, placed a hand on its chest, and bowed elegantly to the screen.

"Greetings to all of humanity, and greetings to the First Player."

"Since you didn't want to keep playing this game with me, I brought it into the real world to find you, L."

Li Jin had six points to address: …

Now he had to consider not whether to step forward and respond, but whether the innocent citizens, furious with resentment, would join forces to hunt him down if he didn't keep his secret identity under wraps.

#He did that on purpose#

#What a petty god#
