The River Moon Shines on the Sea [Linked Stories]

They are trapped in darkness, struggling like caged beasts.

If anyone had told them before that they would be saved, they would have scoffed.

Then that ray of moonlight fell upon them, and they thought: no matter what, they had to make the moon stay.

Oh, moon, moon... Please don't leave me.

They are a bunch of hapless fellows, each with their own quirks.

The one thing they have in common is becoming someone's one and only moon, with no chance of escape.

Well, to be honest, they're actually pretty happy about it.

Hapless Fellow No. 1: Who's the big bad? You?

Hapless Fellow No. 1: Hahahahaha, as if!

He says it's because he met his moon.

From then on, you guide me with your light, and I can no longer resent the world's coldness.

Hapless Fellow No. 2: Let me think about it...

He nods obediently. "Okay~"

Secret room plan: check

Hapless Fellow No. 2: I like you too.

Secret room plan: canceled

He thinks: He's already prepared to lock his moon away.

You give me light, and I'll repay you with a cage.

As it turns out, there's no need to be afraid. My moon is coming toward me, too.

At first,

Hapless Fellow No. 3: Please stay away from me.

N months later,

Hapless Fellow No. 3: "You troublemaker, hold on tight. We're going home."

World 1: Clear-eyed college student (gong) VS limping big bad (shou) (complete)

Chen Le (adorable, full of enthusiasm, and instantly familiar)

Su He (often insecure, a little pitiful, and very stubborn)

Reading guide: Sweet, but written in a simplistic style, with rather one-dimensional characters. The shou has flaws in his personality and won't take much initiative early on, but later he'll actively seduce the gong.

World 2: Loyal knight (gong) VS queen who took the throne in a time of crisis (shou)

Casius (powerful native) VS Laiduo (reborn plot) (complete)

Reading guide: The shou was not a virgin in his previous life, and it was non-consensual. If that bothers you, read with caution. In the reborn world, both leads are virgins. The shou is quite a pitiful little thing, but the gong will heal him.

The point of view is confusing, and it's hard to feel immersed.

World 3: Barbecue shop owner and part-time bodyguard (A) VS bankrupt young master (O) (complete)

Wen Yan (a little straight-laced, cold on the outside and warm on the inside, a rough-and-tumble type)

Pei Jing (a troublemaker, a pampered darling, and a crybaby)

Reading guide: Includes an equality storyline, a transmigrate-into-a-book plot, and a bystander plot.

World 4: Meticulous Alpha VS unruly Beta (in development)

(Episodic story, 1v1, happy ending)

The basic setup throughout: The gong dotes on the shou.

A quick recommendation for my upcoming novel, Develop the Big Shot's Romance! If it sounds interesting, please add it to your collection~

The romance department that System 001 belongs to was once glorious, with a constant stream of visitors.

But now, in an age when everyone worships strength, no one wants to waste a lot of time on romance anymore.

Hosts have chosen new paths, and Systems have requested transfers to other departments to shine elsewhere. In the end, only veteran 001 remains.

The Main God gives 001 one last chance.

There is a group of people who have achieved success but remain alone.

There is a group of people who shine briefly before falling into the mire.

They meet, then miss each other.

Like two intersecting lines, their fates eventually diverge, never to cross again.

001's mission is to change the course of these two lines and make them intertwine.

Theme: Please don't be afraid. In the end, you will be saved.
