The Otaku's Quest for World Domination

A homebody uses food livestreams to conquer the Warring States Chen Xiaozhai gets electrocuted at a gaming expo and wakes up as a Song prince banished to the frontier. Faced with a thatched hut and moldy biscuits, he activates the Steam Inventory System. He summons instant noodles to end a famine and uses his Civilization experience to develop his fief. When the nobles mock his shabby lifestyle, he sets up a bronze cauldron and livestreams a spicy hotpot feast. The spicy aroma sweeps across the whole city, driving the nobles wild with envy. “What is this, my lord?” his old servant asks, trembling. Chen Xiaozhai smiles mysteriously, and the System suddenly chimes: “Existence points have reached the required threshold.” A flash of white light, and a full set of Mount & Blade gear appears in his hands.
