This novel will be completed and VIP-locked on January 23.
As a marginal figure no one paid much attention to, Aselo went to great lengths to finally claim the crown that represented power.
She was clever and ambitious. A few words were all it took to win Apollo's sympathy. She picked up a rather useful "dog" on the beach and did her utmost to drain him dry. She made use of everything around her, ambitiously expanding her territory.
...Until, at last, Aselo's schemes backfired. She was accused of being a witch, of carrying an impure bloodline that could bring disaster to everyone around her at any moment. Worse, the gods who had always generously helped her saw through her false facade.
Aselo fled in disgrace. This time, she escaped to Mount Olympus. She had heard that if she won the approval of enough gods, she could gain an exceptionally long life and special powers granted by the gods, becoming a god created by gods.
The fire of ambition rekindled in Aselo. She gazed at the gods' crown, her eyes burning with eagerness.

Of course the gods knew that this fugitive from the mortal world was no simple character. She was deceitful and ambitious. When she needed something from you, she could sweet-talk you, but that did nothing to change the fact that one day she would leave without a second thought.
But they loved her.
They indulged her.
Check out my new novel: I'm the Real Big Boss of the Horror World
Song Zhizhi was an orphan, adopted as a child by a vagrant. He taught her nothing except how to swindle people, using the excuse of supernatural studies to trick money out of their pockets. Ever since the vagrant died, Song Zhizhi had relied on those tricks to survive.
Song Zhizhi surpassed her teacher.
She sat in front of her little stall wearing sunglasses, with a ragged piece of white cloth hanging beside her. It read, "Blind Fortune-Teller."
"You're bound to be down on your luck, and right now you're at the lowest point in your life. You probably can't even afford a decent meal. Life is hard."
The man raised a finger. "That's right."
Song Zhizhi's mouth twitched. How could it not be right? His white shirt had been worn until it was black. Rule number one for fortune-telling: size up your customer and tell them what they want to hear.
Song Zhizhi clutched the two hundred yuan he'd given her and leaned closer. "Don't worry. Your life is about to take a turn for the better. The world will undergo a massive transformation. Do you understand?"
Rule number two for fortune-telling: keep it vague.
Who could have guessed that that very night, the world would be consumed by supernatural horrors? Worse, everyone awakened supernatural abilities, while Song Zhizhi was still a complete rookie.
To survive, Song Zhizhi made up an ability for herself, claiming she could predict the future.
But only later did Song Zhizhi realize that her ability was creation: the entire horror world had been created by her!
Song Zhizhi: ...
Song Zhizhi: ?!
Theme: No matter what circumstances we find ourselves in, we must seize every chance to survive and keep striving to make ourselves stronger.

Don't be too exclusive. It's better to be cold and hot, and distant, just like domestication. It's not pleasant to watch someone who is overly exclusive or overly close. I prefer to watch both parties pulling together to the extreme.
It always feels weird that the Greek god is innocent and shy [question mark]
It's so strange. Cake, black tea and tutu skirts appear in the background of Greek mythology, and my brain automatically jumps to European court dances. Although there are some things whose prototypes can be found in the ancient Greek era, it still feels very inconsistent to attach the term "descendant" to the prototype. A slight analogy is that the protagonist ate hot pot in the pre-Qin period (there was a method of cooking meat in a tripod during that period, but it cannot be directly called "hot pot" or "mutton shabu-shabu")
On the contrary, in Tiangang, the heroine is clearly a wise king. How can she be evil? This is clearly the skill that a righteous king should have. Can you become a wise king just by being kind and kind? She is also evil. She is obviously too kind and not ruthless enough.
The writing in the first few chapters is good, but the further you go, the less interesting it becomes. 🥺
"Arcello" gave the author a big bug~Apollo
"Chichi" is a big bug for the author ~ Chichi
The "department" is a big thorn in the side of the author~but
But isn't Apollo the god of light? [Let me be healthy]
Come on, madam! Well written! Very nice!
