Bound to a Life-Simulation Game

The Lower City is synonymous with disorder and violence.

Shen Zhi was born here, abandoned by his parents, and taken in by a kind old woman. He stumbled through life until he was fifteen.

At fifteen, the old woman passed away, leaving him all alone.

It was easy to imagine how hard it would be for an extraordinarily beautiful minor to survive in the Lower City.

Shen Zhi watched the strange man approaching with cold eyes. He tightened his grip on the dagger in his hand, ready to go down fighting.

Just then.

[Pet-Raising Game bound. Scanning data...]

[Name: Shen Zhi]

[Age: 15]

[Species: Lop-Eared Rabbit]

[Fullness: 10/100]

[Cleanliness: 25/100]

[Affection: 0/100]

[Your lop-eared rabbit is being attacked by a brown bear. Quickly clear the danger and raise this rabbit owo]

Shen Zhi: ?

He was human. Why had he been identified as a rabbit?

Before Shen Zhi could figure out what was happening, a lazy voice sounded beside his ear.

"Hm? A pet-raising game?"

"This little rabbit is pretty cute. Wait, is the first mission a fight? How do I do that? Let me see..."

The next second, the towering man before him burst into a spray of blood out of nowhere.

The man's voice sounded again.

"There, done. The rabbit's health is so low. Tsk, I have to pay to buy food?"

Shen Zhi couldn't believe it. He carefully wiped the blood from his face.

A clean, soft loaf of bread landed in his palm.

[You fed [Zhi Rabbit] [Bread] x1. Rabbit's fullness +40, affection +1]

[You gave [Zhi Rabbit] a [Full Grooming]. Rabbit's cleanliness +70, affection -50]

[You built [School] x1 for [Zhi Rabbit]. Rabbit's stats increased, affection +30]

What would you do if one day you were told that your world was a game, and that everything about you could be measured in data?

Shen Zhi was pushed forward by this mysterious force, step by step escaping the mire. He went from a filthy little rabbit to the new governor of the Lower City.

At the same time, his dependence on and possessiveness toward that voice grew more and more unhealthy.

"Is the game over here?" the man asked, searching again and again. "There's no second part? It can only end?"

Shen Zhi lowered his eyes.

He would not let his caretaker leave.

[Your [Zhi Rabbit] expressed [Sadness]. He wants to see you]

[Your [Zhi Rabbit] expressed [Anger]. He wants to see you]

[Your [Zhi Rabbit] expressed [Joy]. He has come to see you]

Yu Huaixu, who had poured tens of millions into the game, was gritting his teeth as he called the game company. "How could your pet-raising game end so badly? My little rabbit is only eighteen. I promised him I'd raise him until he died, and now it's just over? Hurry up and give me back my rabbit..."

His voice cut off abruptly.

Yu Huaixu saw a boy, so beautiful it was almost unbelievable, climb out of the game console beside his bed.

"Sir." The boy smiled with delight when he saw him.

"You disappeared, so I came to find you."

"Didn't you say... you'd stay with me for the rest of my life?"

-At fifteen, the moment your voice sounded, the course of the life I had left was already set.

-My habits, personality, methods... everything about me was raised by your hand.

-Other than loving you, there is no other possibility for my life.
