As Bai Xuechao lay dying, a comic System from a higher-dimensional world appeared. He learned that the world he lived in was a comic.
To survive, he bound himself to the comic System and took over the role of a villain who had died in an accident.
But not long after making his debut, he pulled a series of outrageous stunts and took 20% of the comic's male lead's personality for himself.
The author let out a piercing shriek: Leave my boy alone, ahhh!

"Superpowers × The Food Chain" is currently the hottest urban superpower action manga for young readers.
The new character Bai Xuechao, a sickly, beautiful young man with white hair and red eyes, has seen his popularity soar since his debut in the Ocean Park arc.
With his unhinged, mischief-loving personality, sky-high intelligence, and apparent short life expectancy, he took third place in his very first popularity poll.
Readers who adore Xuechao both love and worry about him:
[Who gets it?! Insanely smart, unbelievably gorgeous, sickly, and damn, he's dancing all over my personal preferences!]
[Baby, the limits of your life aren't the limits of my love for you! QAQ]
As the story develops, Bai Xuechao's true identity is revealed.
He is one of the four executives of a dark organization, and he approached the male lead with ulterior motives. He fabricated an identity with lies and used the male lead to achieve his goals. The male lead's every move was under his control.
Xuechao fans rejoice: [He's a villain?! That's so compelling. I love him even more, mwah~]
Even readers who hadn't been fans finally couldn't resist adding him to their favorites. A comment saying, “Falling for Ah Xue is only natural,” got a million likes.

Bai Xuechao strikes a deal with the author to make the comic a smash hit.
He plays the villain, controls the plot, gives the male lead his spotlight moments, and even puts himself in harm's way, all to make the comic more exciting.
And so everyone discovers:
The boy's past holds scars no one should touch;
Beneath that carefree smile were once tears of despair;
His ending was set in stone long ago, with death as his final happiness.
Readers go wild with tears on the manga forum:
[Ah Xue is coughing up blood again. Please, old scoundrel, don't let him die of his illness!]
[I hereby declare him my beautiful, tragic, one-and-only moonlight!]
[Waaah, the male lead still doesn't believe Ah Xue is really a villain. He even said he would save him! They're so real, I'm crying!]
[Everyone, let's go! Ah Xue has to take first place in this character popularity poll!]
Bai Xuechao, now the beautiful, tragic, one-and-only moonlight: …
The author, watching Bai Xuechao become the fan favorite: …
The System, breaking down: The male lead doesn't even want to kill you anymore! How are we supposed to fake your death now, ahhh!
[Reading Notes]
① No CP. Very indulgent and chuunibyou. The protagonist has no romance or one-sided crushes, only friendship and family affection. The System is a character, not a tool, and has a constant presence and plenty to say.
② There are real and fake twists, manga comments, forum-style sections, and manga readers shipping characters.
③ This book has a prequel, but you can read this one without it. If you're interested, check out "I Reached the Top of the Manga Popularity Poll by Playing the Villain" in my works, or use the link in the announcement.
④ I check for typos before every update, but I might still miss some. Please feel free to point them out, and thank you! I'll fix them when I see them.
⑤ Please don't mention other authors' books in the comments, and especially don't mention this book in other authors' comment sections.
Theme: Your fate is in your own hands.
