Haunted by a Soul Reaper, I Become a Star

-

Su Yu is a little-known actor with an outstanding appearance and absolutely terrible acting skills. He spends all year drifting from one production set to another as a pretty prop.

After a night shoot one time, Su Yu discovers that he's "floating" over a desolate graveyard, surrounded by a group of "people" missing arms and legs.

Su Yu: I must be going crazy.

Ghost One: Kid, you've got a pretty face, but your acting is so bad it's painful to watch. Are you here to get revenge on society?

Ghost Two: Can you just quit acting and quietly be a pretty prop?

Su Yu: ...

Great. His acting is so bad even ghosts can't stand it.

-

Su Yu can act now!

After discovering this, the entire entertainment industry is thrilled. They finally don't have to put up with that gorgeous plastic flower anymore!

But isn't his acting improving a little too quickly?

Viewer One: Su Yu's villain is so convincing! Did he study in prison or something?

Exactly. He beat several evil ghosts into submission before they agreed to teach him everything they knew...

Viewer Two: Su Yu's devoted second male lead seems ready to die for the heroine at any moment!

That's right. He really did die for love.

Viewer Three: Su Yu does a pretty good job as an overbearing CEO who's cocky, wild, and always looks impatient!

Su Yu agrees. He pieced the character together from the way countless ghosts described the big shots of the underworld. It's the real deal!

Lu Yanshi has recently noticed that the ghosts in his jurisdiction have stopped fighting and causing trouble. They don't scare people in the middle of the night anymore, either. Instead, they gather secretly as soon as night falls.

"Go follow Xiao Su's Weibo! That singer's about to overtake him!"

"Go vote for Xiao Su! Our Underworld Support Squad can't lose!"

"Go visit your son in a dream and tell him Xiao Su needs active fans!"

Netizen: "The old man is over eighty and still idolizes celebrities!"

Lu Yanshi: ...

Even ghosts are idolizing celebrities now?

But this Xiao Su looks a little familiar...

Much later, Su Yu has become a hugely popular star.

During an interview, a reporter asks who he is most grateful to for helping him along the way.

Su Yu earnestly recites a long list of names...

Fan: The tattooed guy and the blond guy are one thing, but is "Headless" really a name a living person could have?

Late one night, when he gets home,

Su Yu is pinned against the wall. Cold lips roam over his chest. "I'll give you one more chance. Who are you grateful to?"

Su Yu is about to answer when a strange tingling spreads across his chest. He arches his head back and cries out, his voice turning soft despite himself. "I love you the most..."
