Hao Ren, true to his name, is a good person whose ideal is to live a peaceful life as a landlord who is neither poor nor rich—at least that's how it was before a bunch of crazy creatures moved into his house. A secluded, dilapidated house, a bunch of somewhat abnormal non-human creatures, and a labor contract from a "god"—these three elements combined make Hao Ren the busiest landlord and most capable nanny in the world. Thus begins the most chaotic, strangest, and most abnormal landlord-tenant story. "From the day I put my fingerprint on the employment contract, I knew I was on a sinking ship..."

A black-haired forest elf, half-human and half-deer, plays the melody of the forest, while a hot necromancer sways her hips and dances gracefully with her summoned skeletons to the music. The halfling lay sprawled on the table, lazily building blocks with a stack of small silver coins. His shrewd little eyes scanned the money pouches at everyone's waists. The burly dwarf had one foot on the table, holding a glass of ale, and loudly chanting dwarven songs that no one could understand. Under the gaze of the moonless night, the night was peaceful and serene. This is where it all began; this is the story of swords and magic.

In the magical world of Yara, there exists another group of extraordinary professionals who venture into perilous places in pursuit of knowledge, wealth, excitement, and honor, seeking secrets hidden deep within the past. These people, who live with danger, have a fitting name—adventurers. There are many adventurers, and among so many people, there are bound to be a few oddballs. For example, there is a swordsman who used to be addicted to alcohol and women but now enjoys courting death all day long; a knight who regards gold coins as the ultimate pursuit; a priest who is mentally unstable and bursting with curiosity; and a magical genius who can fall into a trance at any time and become unable to take care of himself. What kind of strange stories will be triggered when such a group of eccentric people get together? Okay, all of the above is nonsense. Actually, this is just a short story about an abnormal, unscrupulous uncle and a few abnormal, troubled girls seeking self-healing, no, seeking redemption. I solemnly remind you: This story is purely fictional. If there are any resemblances to actual events, then you should definitely seek self-treatment.
