Turning the traditional setup of villains opposing heroes on its head, this story follows a villain who awakens to self-awareness and finds himself helpless and forced to compromise when confronted by a powerful protagonist. Knowing he is destined to lose, the villain begs for mercy and proposes the outlandish idea of joining forces with the protagonist to fight against the author's control. As they use each other, their feelings begin to shift in subtle ways, and they even become cultivation partners. With a light, humorous style, the story explores profound themes such as fate, free will, and tangled emotions.
