Zhu Wuyou transmigrates into a doomsday manga where alien species have descended and humanity unites to fight the apocalypse. The manga is serialized in episodic arcs and tells the stories of humanity's heroes.
The System says: You will play an important role. A very important one, indispensable to the manga.
Zhu Wuyou's hands tremble as she asks excitedly: Could I be one of the protagonists?
The System says: You are the villain.
Zhu Wuyou: ?
The System: You have to play the ultimate villain who ties all the story arcs together.
Zhu Wuyou: ?
Zhu Wuyou calms down and says expressionlessly: Then what can you offer me? Superhuman strength? A System shop? Manga comments?
The System: None of those. But you do have a villain filter. With this filter, you can just stand there doing nothing, and everyone will think you're a bad guy!
Zhu Wuyou: ...
With one rotten life, all she can do is give it her all!
Some time later, the System breaks down: Why do they all think you have a tragic reason for what you do?!
Zhu Wuyou is at a loss, too: I don't know!
++++++
I really do love this genre, and I really do want to write a beautiful, strong, tragic protagonist. I'm just really not good at it. The core premise won't change, though I may revise the blurb later.
There will be manga comments and forum posts. The protagonist will jump between the manga world and the readers' world (her own world), where she can see the audience's reactions to her performance.
