[Updated daily at 12:00 noon. If anything comes up, I'll post a leave notice]
A world of mist and sea, where everyone has supernatural abilities.
At the very top of its hierarchy stands the Black Night Joint Council, founded by the five city-states.
Among them, [Visensous] is the foremost city-state.
And [Wes] is the city-state consciousness of [Visensous].
The long night stretches on, dreams spanning three thousand years.
When Wes awoke, two noisy 'Systems' had appeared before them.
One System was black, the other white. Like their children, they shone with the light of justice and were stained with the color of sin.
Wes liked them very much and found them fascinating.
--'I love both [justice] and [evil] on this land equally.'
Of course, it was precisely out of 'love' that Wes interrogated the two Systems of unknown origin.
The results of the interrogation proved unexpectedly fascinating.
The Systems said: [The supernatural world of mist and sea is on the verge of collapse because its plotlines have gone awry. The protagonist and the transmigrators must work together to save the world.]
Wes thought it was absurd and laughable. Since when had their world ever had a 'chosen one' capable of threatening its stability?
But that was all right. Wes had plenty of time to figure it out, one thing at a time.
Wes and their friends wrote one play after another for the 'world's protagonists' and the 'transmigrators,' reclaiming the world's threads as the drama unfolded.
And so the game A Journey into the Mist Sea, a projection of another world, dealt its players a heavy blow.
---Welcome to the world of mist and sea, supernatural ability users---
[The Greatest Evil: CG Unlocked]
-The young man, with his corruption meter maxed out, wore his usual smile, but his eyes held an abyss darker than the night.
Under the cold moonlight, he poured out a strange blue liquid, then instantly set off a great fire, trapping everyone inside a cage.
In the narrow space where ice and fire intertwined, he chuckled. 'Visensous welcomes you, my dear little wretches.'
■Congratulations, player! Achievement unlocked: [Everyone Dead]
[King of the Fog City: CG Unlocked]
-A youth dressed in formal attire slowly stepped forward, drawing the long sword in his hand. His tone was languid and arrogant.
'My city-state. Who gave you permission to touch it?'
■Congratulations, player! Achievement unlocked: [Reputation in Ruins]
[The Ranta Rumor: Locked]
[What Is Justice, What Is Sin: Locked]
[The Paradox of Time: Locked]

Game forum vent thread:
[Damn it! What's with this crappy game? The difficulty just shot through the roof!]
[Is this a BUG? Sob, I only saw that mysterious black-haired youth once, and then all the Fog City's reputation I'd worked so hard to build suddenly hit rock bottom. What happened?!]
[And what about that detective from Visensous? Is he good or bad? One minute he's trying to kill us, the next he's saving us.]
[This game is seriously weird, but I really do love playing it.]

+++[Dawn■■: Hidden CG] - Unlocked
-[There is always something above all else.]
“...Like how the survival of a city-state matters more than the life of its consciousness, and the future of the mist sea matters more than the interests of the city-states.”
Laughing loudly, Wes spread their arms and fell toward the world.
Blazing fire burned away the lies, and cause and effect rewrote the future.
'--Look, dawn has come.'
Reader's Guide:
1. This is a fictional world. Please don't connect it to reality. Maximum original worldbuilding. My own chuuni supernatural power system. Click to watch Wes don secret identities and 'battle wits' with the players (thumbs up).
2. No romance. The protagonist is a city-state consciousness. They love justice and evil equally, just like the scales of a city-state.
3. The protagonist's power is causality, and they're exceptionally skilled in physical combat. They also have two modes, each with a different personality and appearance. They are usually in [Dawn Mode], but occasionally enter [Sin-Reversal Mode] because of ■■■■■■ (basically, they go dark).
--They're the will of a city-state, so it makes sense that their personality would change under its influence, right?
4. The forum content is limited and barely appears. Key CGs unlock as the plot progresses, with bullet comments.
5. Don't trust anyone too easily. Anyone could be a liar. Also, the playwright's scripts are seriously ruthless.
6. Screenshots archived on 2024.06.23.
7. Haven't decided yet. To be added.
--Here's a future release :D
[Upcoming Novel Blurb] - Who Says Pink Hair Has to Hide a Black Heart?
-Why can't it be pure white all the way through?
*
Chu Zhibai is an immensely popular character in Silver Descendant, the latest work by the crafty author Orange Cat. He won countless fans from the moment he appeared, thanks to his stunning looks and incredible strength. At the same time, though, his iconic pink hair made countless readers suspicious.
[Is Chu Zhibai secretly a villain?]
[Everyone knows pink-haired characters look pure, but they're all black inside once you cut them open.]
[Hahahaha, just wait until our Zhibai shows his true colors!!]
It wasn't just the manga readers who doubted him. Even the manga's main cast suspected he had ulterior motives. The suspicions everyone shared came to an end only on the day the sky was drenched in blood.
“Don't cry.” The crimson sunset was sinking. A faint, tender smile appeared on the pale face of the man. “I sincerely hope... that all of you get what you wish for.”
The next moment, as the main cast chased after him frantically, he plunged into the deep sea. His beautiful pink hair streaked across the horizon like a blood-stained rainbow.
The day the manga update came out, everyone went wild. They couldn't believe it. They had never imagined Chu Zhibai would be a truly pure-hearted character. But, alas...
--Once you cut him open, you can't put him back together.
*
Chu Zhibai opened his eyes in the Tower of Curses, back in his original body. The System's pitiful sobs rang in his ears, and excruciating pain wrapped around his entire body. He slowly blinked, peering through a narrow crack in the tower at the azure sky and the mountains and sea outside.
The world outside was so wonderful. So beautiful, so rich, so enchanting. He loved everything, from the plants and animals to the people beyond the tower.
But...
“...It seems like nobody likes me.” Chu Zhibai lowered his eyes. “Is this a curse?”
[Host!!] The System panicked. [Don't think that way! Everyone likes you! The manga readers do too. They all miss you so much!!]
But Chu Zhibai didn't believe it anymore. He didn't want to read the manga again, yet he still put on a mask and cloak and quietly escaped the tower that held him prisoner.
--Even if nobody loves me, I still want to save this innocent, beautiful world. If I hide everything about myself, then I won't have to endure everyone's hatred, right?
*
A few months later, a new character in the manga Silver Descendant caused an uproar.
[Wait, what is this new character supposed to be? Trying to cash in on our Zhibai's popularity? He's suffered enough already.]
[Everyone else, get lost!! Leave Zhibai alone! What the hell are you doing, you old crook??]
[Are you kidding? Do you think we're blind? You think we won't recognize him just because he's wearing a cloak? We could tell from the color page that this masked guy has pink hair too! What is this supposed to be!!]
[Don't use Chu Zhibai as a stepping stone to promote someone else, aaah--you old crook, go die!]
[I'd jump from here! I'd die outside! I still wouldn't accept a substitute!!]
[Holy crap, this is so good.]

... It's a bit shocking, but it's as expected, but does the World Book also have a spirit?
Teacher, I admit that your writing is very good, but your update frequency... You don't say anything, and then you don't post the leave request. What do you want to do? Don't you care about us readers, but why do you want to post it? Even if you mention it in your composition, it's a bit hard not to feel emotional. Even if you can find an excuse [cover your face and laugh]
Teacher, where is your update or leave request? [Loading]
I would like to ask, will it be able to be updated stably in the future?
