A God Descends and Becomes the Strongest Wage Earner

Lu Yu is the only true god in the Infinite World. He has to work 24 hours a day, seven days a week, with no days off all year!

Lu Yu can't stand working that hard anymore, so he escapes to the human world and discovers that people only have to work 996! Sometimes they even get 995!

During holidays, they can rearrange their days off and get three days off in a row!

Lu Yu happily gets a job in the human world. At first, he's not used to clocking out, and on Sundays he still goes to the office out of habit.

He realizes his coworkers are hostile toward him, so he simply takes over all their work. After all, he doesn't know what to do with himself after work.

Before long, he's become the best employee in the company, praised by the boss and all his coworkers.

Then one day, dark clouds cover the sky, and several beams of light flash across the entire city!

The Infinite World suddenly invades reality, generating countless horror-game instances all over the globe!

Terrifying NPCs suddenly appear in Lu Yu's office, scaring his coworkers into scrambling across the floor!

Lu Yu: ...

Lu Yu stands up and calmly crooks a finger, herding all the NPCs into the supply closet.

"What are you doing here?"

His NPC subordinate answers pitifully,

"Big Boss, the Second Boss said people in the human world get off work early, so he sent us all here to work!"

"We'll run the instances here according to human hours, from nine in the morning to nine at night, then head back to the Infinite World to have fun once we're done!"

Lu Yu: ...

How could they make such a huge change to the work schedule without telling him?

Lu Yu blazes through N instances before finally tracking down the culprit behind everything, the so-called "Second Boss":

The evil god Boss, Song Yuan.

"All right, take them back! Don't ruin my happy life in the human world!"

Song Yuan looks at him coldly.

"Happy?"

"Is that what you call dumping all the true god's work on me and leaving me unable to finish even a 007 schedule?"

Lu Yu feels guilty. "...Hey, that's not quite fair."

Song Yuan slowly approaches. Countless black tentacles writhe out from his back and coil around Lu Yu. His gaze grows colder and colder, his breathing heavier and heavier.

"Happy? Who here could possibly make you happy? Those ignorant humans?"

"The young man who buys you coffee in the morning, or the older man who takes you home at night?"

"Is that why you slept with me, then ran off with your things the next morning and escaped to the human world?!"

"If I hadn't brought the whole world here, would you have never come looking for me?"

Lu Yu blushes and pulls the tentacles that have crept inside his clothes back out.

"Can't you talk without getting handsy at the same time?!"

Later,

all the NPCs in the Infinite World hear that the evil god forcibly dragged the true god back to the bottom of the deep sea, and the two of them went on strike together for a week.

Later,

The Infinite World begins imitating the human world and adopts a 996 work schedule.

But Lu Yu thinks the old 007 schedule was better!

Otherwise, for six nights every week and all day Sunday, Song Yuan will turn him this way and that, exhausting him with all kinds of tricks. Even a god can't take that much!

Song Yuan clearly disagrees.

Toying with Lu Yu's fingers with his tentacles, Song Yuan muses, "How about we switch to 955 starting tomorrow, with three days off at the beginning, middle, and end of every month?"

Lu Yu: ...

What should he do? Maybe he should run away again.

A pure and holy true god shou x an evil god gong with endless tricks who loves to wear people out
