Inside a game-streaming room in Great Xia.
“Alright, guys, let's see what myth-and-fantasy games are out lately.”
“Hm? This one's kind of interesting. It opens with an animated cutscene, and the protagonist pops out of a rock? The game's called Defend the Heavenly Court?”
“A monkey? Ha! Looks like we'll be playing a monkey and defending this so-called Heavenly Court.”
“What?!! We're not playing the monkey? We're heavenly soldiers, and the monkey's the big boss?”
“Are you kidding me? Does the developer even know how to make games? A hundred thousand heavenly soldiers and generals against one monkey? That's a piece of cake!”
“Wait… Guys, something's off. There's something strange about this monkey. Let me take a closer look…”
The streamer stared in stunned silence as the monkey rampaged through the ranks of immortals, charging back and forth and sweeping everything aside. He was so utterly overwhelmed that he froze, then started scratching his head like a real monkey…
PS: This is a parallel world with no mythological history, a unified world, and no wars. That's all.
