Three years after the natural disaster, the city has become a wasteland and resources are depleted. Just as people are preparing to rebuild, plants and animals mutate, bringing a new apocalypse. Zhong Shengwan unexpectedly encounters danger and awakens a supernatural ability called the Divine Brush. With their friends, they level up and battle monsters along the way.
"Lu Guiyuan! You said you like Lu Guiyuan?!"
"Keep your voice down!" Zhong Shengwan sat bolt upright and clapped a hand over Yi Yumian's mouth. His ear-splitting voice still echoed around the room.
"Mmph!" Yi Yumian clawed at Zhong Shengwan's hand, muffling a series of protests.
When Zhong Shengwan saw that he had lowered his voice, he let go, his cheeks burning. The two sat facing each other on the bed. The room fell silent, until Yi Yumian finally couldn't stand it anymore.
"When did you start liking him?" Yi Yumian stared at Zhong Shengwan, unable to hide his shock.
"I realized it during that earthquake," Zhong Shengwan said quietly.
"Then... what are you going to do?"
"Pursue him!" Zhong Shengwan chuckled.
"Huh?"
"What do you mean, 'huh'? I can't bring myself to stop being friends with him, and I can't stand watching him fall in love with someone else. Of course I'll do my best to win him over!" In the darkness, Zhong Shengwan's eyes shone brighter than the stars.
"Then I'll help..."
"Wait! I heard something outside. I'll go check." Zhong Shengwan jumped up and rushed out, but all he found was the quiet darkness of the night.
"Did someone come over?" Yi Yumian followed, looking nervous.
Zhong Shengwan shook his head and ushered him back inside.
As he turned around, he paused, as if he'd spotted something.
"...This can't be that cliche, can it?"
The door closed, and silence fell. Zhong Shengwan lowered his head, lost in thought, his lips pressed tightly together. Uneasy, he turned and opened the door again, looking toward the corner beside it.
Note: Childhood friends, both virgins, no switching, the younger one pursues the older one at first, and the older one dotes on the younger one throughout, having spoiled him since childhood. A brave, straightforward younger one who pursues love and saves his beloved X a devoted, dad-like, secretly gay older one with an irresistible boyfriend vibe.
The younger one has a growth-type Divine Brush ability that lets him draw objects out of thin air. His golden finger is weak at first, but becomes unbelievably powerful later!
There is a secondary couple, whose story serves the main couple's romance and doesn't take up much space.
The story opens three years after the natural disaster. There are no zombies, just a mutated plants-and-animals apocalypse and spiritual qi revival. A little ensemble cast and a sweet romance!
Theme: No matter how many hardships life brings, hold on to your ideals and dreams, and grow toward the light.
