Ling once started out in a sewer, struggling through hardship until she was eighteen. Then she kicked a certain rich family's prized heir right in the family jewels and got herself into trouble.
Ling: Haha, I'm done for!
Luckily, the apocalypse arrived, and with nowhere else to turn, Ling bound herself to a Base Lord System.
A rat-person starting from scratch with nothing but a ramshackle hut, and a starving, freezing mother and daughter asking whether she should fix the fireplace or the window first.
Ling: ...Isn't this one of those clickbait mini-games I keep seeing?

The base is in desperate need of development and ranks last on the residents' happiness index.
After much soul-searching, the utterly uneducated Ling gambles all her assets and borrows five more talent cards from the System.
A flash of light, and Ling's knees go weak.
No. 1: The heir's eldest sister, the only female chief justice before the apocalypse.
No. 2: The heir's second sister, the financial fraudster who served the longest sentence before the apocalypse.
No. 3: The heir's third sister, winner of the Arli Literary Prize, with eighteen pen names.
No. 4: The heir's fourth sister, a top cancer researcher who suffered from overwork-induced myocarditis.
Good grief, they really are talented...
Talents who nearly got her imprisoned, accidentally killed, disgraced in her old age, and left with an incomplete corpse!
Ling: Haha, I'm done for again!
Just as the gambler sheds a crocodile tear, the literary genius sister gently kisses her cheek.
"Don't worry. We're not here to break up this family."
Ling cries even harder: Who said you dragons are my family?!

With the four dragon sisters on board, the base goes from a dungeon run to the top of the happiness index.
The eldest sister bangs her gavel: "The Constitution comes first. Children take their mother's surname."
The second sister crunches the numbers: "Improve welfare. Maternity insurance."
The third sister scribbles away: "Promote the right ideas. Periods are good for you."
The fourth sister screams: "Efficiency! Efficiency! Efficiency!"
Ling, learning the truth: ...How terrifying. Are these four really my biological sisters?
