Esteemed S-rank, would you like a nice hot steamed bun?
Bai Mo transmigrated into an apocalyptic world crawling with monsters.
The good news: This is a world of supernatural powers, and everyone gets to draw one!
The bad news: The powers in this world are so mutated that they might be a little abstract.
Bai Mo had a bad feeling about this.
System: You are the hundredth brave transmigrator! Now, draw your supernatural ability!
Bai Mo: Wow?
System: Ta-da! Congratulations! Your ability is... to instantly pull out two hot steamed buns anytime, anywhere!! Yay!!!
Bai Mo: Wow?!?!
I'm going to die! Am I supposed to fight monsters with steamed buns?!
The first team of powerful allies Bai Mo found in this world of supernatural abilities ran into a monster.
Bai Mo: Hey, what rank are you?
Friend 1: D-rank.
Bai Mo: And you, friend?
Friend 2: F-rank.
Bai Mo looked back at the System's description of the C-rank monster, pulled out a steamed bun, and tearfully prepared to die with a full stomach.
But one bite of the bun left them feeling invigorated! The team, whose average rank was only D, fought their way out against all odds.
A powerful team passing by looked at the battered group.
Powerful One 1: You, the steamed-bun canteen. You're with us now.
Some people called Bai Mo a sucker, a kept man, a flashy burden who could only scrape by selling steamed buns.
Maybe he had to sell something else to secure a powerful patron.
But Bai Mo looked at his skill panel, which seemed to go on forever, and grinned wickedly.
Hot steamed buns are fragrant and soft, and everyone fights over them.
--Price per bun: 1% of a superpowered person's abilities [can be accumulated]
A legend spread through the apocalyptic world.
An ordinary person with an F-rank ability possessed countless luxury resources.
S-rank powerhouses looked upon him with favor.
Claws that could tear apart superpowered people carefully protected him.
Waves that could swallow cities diligently taught him to swim.
Flames that could burn through buildings in an instant roasted fish and cooked meals for him...
Even hordes of monsters switched sides and followed him around eagerly.
He must have some kind of bewitching power, right?
Once again, Bai Mo was cornered by the S-ranks, who maliciously suspected him of this. High-grade spirit stones filled his arms, and rare treasures were piled all around him.
Under their fervent, expectant gazes, Bai Mo had no choice but to reach into his pocket...
And pull out a hot steamed bun.
"Here," Bai Mo said. "Who's first?"
Several hands reached for the bun at once, but in the next instant, everything vanished. Both Bai Mo and the bun were gone.
Pulled into a pocket dimension, Bai Mo was knocked to the ground by a man. The extraordinarily tall figure bent over him, pressing close with both affection and forcefulness to the beloved he had thought of day and night.
The steamed bun everyone had treated like a treasure was tossed aside.
Looking at Bai Mo struggling and kicking beneath him, Xie Tu decided Bai Mo was far more delicious than any bun.
