Ming Yu was born into privilege. His fathers were top-tier Bosses, each with their own top-tier dungeons. Even his classmates at school were high-level Bosses. As a modern, ambitious ghost, he resolutely decided to earn credits in low-level dungeons and compete for the title of Outstanding Graduate.
During his internship, Ming Yu became a diligent dungeon worker, serving as an assistant to dungeon Bosses. But his assignments were always a little off.
At the scene of a ghostly murder, he helped the shadowy ghost clean up a corpse, only to witness the ghost being pinned down and kissed by a deranged player.
Ming Yu was dumbfounded.
They hadn't taught him what to do in this situation at school.
The ghost finally escaped the player's grasp and managed to get its first kill. At the crucial moment, Ming Yu's janitor coworker got killed.
The ghost silently turned to look at Ming Yu.
Ming Yu: "..."
Fine. He'd put up with it.
In the giant-beast dungeon, he was a heartless toothbrusher, responsible for protecting the beasts' gum health and making sure they brushed their teeth on time every day. The sour stench from their mouths made his eyes water whenever the wind blew.
Whenever the giant beasts went hunting, they would save him a thigh. They'd proudly drop the food in front of him and urge him to eat. If he refused, they'd throw a tantrum and refuse to brush their teeth.
Ming Yu: "..."
He'd put up with that too.
In the eerie factory dungeon, he was an employee working himself to the bone on the doll factory's production line, assembling monster dolls every day and becoming the "mother" of the monsters.
"Mommy, Mommy, Mommy..."
The little monsters followed him everywhere, making a mess of the factory and fighting each other. The victorious little monster stared at Ming Yu with its eerie compound eyes and asked shyly, "Mommy, am I your favorite baby?"
Ming Yu: "..."
Looking at the mess all over the floor, he tried to endure it... but he couldn't take it anymore! Enough, this was more than enough! They were just coworkers!
Either he'd die on the job or go crazy on the job.
Ming Yu decisively chose the latter. He slapped the players, gave his task-assigning supervisors two slaps, and hit the troublesome little monsters with the Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms.
No one gets to exploit a working ghost!
On the player forum:
Thread: Let's talk about that mysterious NPC in the dungeon.
[I saw him stuff a corpse that had come back to life into a trash can, then clean up all the blood in the room. He slapped the ghost and told it to be more careful next time and not splatter food everywhere and make more work for him.]
[The giant beast that calls every human a little human got its snacks confiscated by this mysterious NPC because it went to bed without brushing its teeth. It bawled its eyes out. Hahahaha, so satisfying!]
[Waaah, am I the only one being chased all over the place by the dolls he makes on the production line?]
[Newbie here. Why can he be so wild?]
[Silly kid (affectionately pats their head), obviously because he has powerful connections.]
Bonus Scene 1:
Whenever Ming Yu does a job, he runs into a few unruly players. Even though they're high-level players, they insist on going to low-level dungeons to bully the weak.
Ming Yu bristles. Not enough players are getting eliminated, and it's seriously hurting his KPIs!
Like he can't call in reinforcements too!
Ming Yu decisively calls his senior schoolmates over.
The dungeon erupts into a red alert: [Beep! Top-tier dungeon invasion! Players, prepare yourselves!]
The players: "...?"
Come on, man. You're taking this a little too seriously!
Bonus Scene 2:
Ming Yu eliminates far too many players every time. After one A-rank dungeon ends, the System looks at the players who have been wiped out and flies into a panic. "A-rank dungeons are supposed to have a completion rate too! Why did you kill them all? Waaah, what am I supposed to put in my work report? I'm deducting your credits!"
Ming Yu feels guilty. Then his eyes suddenly light up. "There's one left!"
The sole surviving player rises from the ruins. Ignoring his bloodied, battered state, he beams at Ming Yu. "Baby, I'm still alive!"
Ming Yu: "Yay!"
His credits are safe!
A worker on the outside, an emperor on the inside shou X a player with the cockroach-like vitality of a gong.
tips: 1. Neither the gong nor the shou is a good person. The gong would even ride an old man across the road, so moral paragons, please stay away.
2. Since the protagonist of this story is the child of the protagonists of another novel, they'll be mentioned in a few scenes. You could loosely call them a secondary couple, but they won't get much page time.
3. ...I can't think of anything else for now. I'll add more later.
Here's another upcoming novel: "Does a Frail Sword Spirit Have to Join a Love Triangle Too?" If you like it, be sure to add it to your library! Here's the blurb:
After dying of an illness, Luo Ling transmigrates into a cultivation novel featuring an overpowered hero, becoming the tool sword spirit who gives the hero his golden finger. He's supposed to teach the hero cultivation techniques and even take sword strikes for him.
Luo Ling: "..."
Whoever wants to be that hapless tool can do it. He's not going to. He'll just wash up, go to bed, and call it a day.
So after the overpowered hero obtains the divine sword, all he sees is the frail sword spirit sleeping deeply within it.
To keep the protagonist from relying on him and make him fend for himself, Luo Ling plays up his sickly persona to the fullest.
When the overpowered hero is bullied, Luo Ling covers his chest and coughs softly, his eyes appropriately reddening. In the most affected way possible, he says, "You know my previous master met his end as a god. I was his bonded sword, and my soul is close to dissipating..."
The overpowered hero immediately gathers him into his arms with tender care and promises through choked sobs, "I'll get stronger. I'll heal you."
Luo Ling: "Hehe."
Who says being frail is bad? This is just wonderful.
But gradually, things start to feel a little off.
The overpowered hero's master brazenly tries to steal the sword from his disciple. "You're so weak. He'll only suffer if he stays with you."
The overpowered hero's gloomy senior smiles cordially. "Is Ah Ling feeling better? Let him come out. I'll just take one look at him, I promise I won't do anything else."
The former master's old friend, an Immortal Venerable, says, "My friend is gone. I'll take care of you from now on."
The former master, who has come back from the dead, shouts, "All of you, get lost!"
Luo Ling retreats in terror. These people are actually deranged enough to go after a sword spirit!
