-Main quest: Make the most dazzling first impression on the natives of each small world, then reveal a nasty personality, eccentric words and actions, and a foolish mind, going from everyone's favorite to everyone's most hated.
[1. A homophobic idol who hates fans who fawn over him x fans with all kinds of golden fingers]
Yuan Tanfei was blacklisted across the internet the day after his gorgeous face made its debut. During a video fan-signing, he bluntly asked whether the male fan who had paid to see him was sick in the head. A man chasing a male idol? Disgusting.
Among the male fans he insulted were young masters from the capital's elite circles, heirs to wealthy families, and veterans of the film industry... They had only just begun their first crush-fueled fanboying after leaving the newbie village, and had already run into the rudest, most hateful idol. Luckily, they all had mysterious golden fingers.
But why did those golden fingers only seem to work by rewriting common sense?
At the next fan-signing, and then after he was blacklisted and vanished from the internet, Yuan Tanfei could only say, all dazed, "Thank you, darling," when male fans blushed and bashfully confessed to him.
[2. A commoner sentinel who will stop at nothing to climb the ranks x haughty guides from an elite academy]
Yuan Tanfei really did his best to make the overbearing guides despise him. After placing first in the entrance exam and dazzling everyone, he also revealed a preference for sentinels.
While other sentinels fought tooth and nail to team up with guides, Yuan Tanfei wouldn't even attend the end-of-term mixers. Not a single guide had ever seen his true face.
The guides really did start to hate him :)
[There are no romantic advances aimed at anyone other than the protagonist. The guides are actually unpopular. The story structure is simple, and all romantic interest revolves around the protagonist.]
[3. A protagonist who exists only in a mysterious photograph x alphas frantically searching for clues]
When the colonel returned to his unit this time, he brought a photograph with him and claimed the young man in it was his betrothed.
He treasured the photograph, and only a few trusted subordinates had seen it.
There was nothing remarkable about him. He was just an ordinary young man.
The strange thing was that these disciplined alphas all caught the same faint scent in the night, and from then on fell into shared, unspeakable wet dreams and nightmares.
After they won the great war against the insectoid race, the colonel unexpectedly went missing in the outer universe. His trusted subordinates began fighting over the photograph... and frantically searching for the identity of the person in it.
[4. A dream guy who exists only in a novel x overzealous dreamers from outside the novel]
Yuan Tanfei is a highly popular supporting character in the hit novel I Battle the Immortals. He devotes himself to the male lead, sacrificing his soul to pave the way to immortality.
He dazzles every reader as soon as he appears with his "pure and kind" nature. Of the novel's 6,758 words of physical description, 6,666 are devoted to him.
Just as everyone is building forums for him, writing stories, drawing art, and churning out fanworks in full swing, the latest chapter suddenly has Yuan Tanfei tell the male lead, "The person who made you lose your cultivation back then was me, hahaha. I'm the legendary villain. Readers, you sweet little fools, your dream has been shattered."
The readers rejoice: Thank goodness! I knew you weren't in love with that pretentious jerk!
-Hidden quest beyond the main storyline: Resist bad influences. Preserve your straight heart and your virginity.
Yuan Tanfei completes it with flying colors.
Yuan Tanfei has no idea what it means to be the king of flirting with older brothers or the protagonist who teases younger brothers. He simply flashes a smile and completes the "dazzle everyone" objective. When he turns around, he discovers that the chosen ones of every world are wagging their tails and begging for his favor, even fighting each other over a single glance from him.
Using men's tears as a drinking snack is just too spicy...
Sorry, Yuan Tanfei just can't bring himself to hurt a man's feelings.
He's willing to listen to everyone's childhood traumas, the growing pains of adolescence, the dessert shop by their high school, the stray cat on the way home, the dusk that blurred their vision... By the way, could you give him a five-star review after you're done? Yuan Tanfei from the cannon fodder department is happy to be of service.^^
Reader's guide:
1. A scheming, flirtatious, career-minded bottom who sometimes becomes a poor straight guy backed to the edge of a cliff by gay men. Everything is for a perfect rating.
2. A brainless, indulgent, everyone-loves-him bottom.
