The young man, Andou Minato, was deeply engrossed in a certain social game.... more>>

Its name was Dark Resonance—commonly known as "Dakurezo"—a simulation RPG set in a cruel world.

Despite its brutal content and lack of ethical considerations, it became a game of hegemonic status due to its fascinating characters and excellent storyline.

And so, while spending peaceful days playing such a game, he suddenly found himself transported into that very world.

Without knowing the cause, he was thrown into a world that, while great to play in, was the last place he wanted to experience in reality.

However, in that worst-case scenario world, Minato pondered.

He had no intention of interfering with the original story... it belonged to the people living in this world and to the protagonist.

Yet, even so, in such an extreme and harsh world, he couldn't help but feel the desire to lend a hand... <<less

During the Hongwu era of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang received multiple reports that Li Fan, the county magistrate of Fengyang, was extorting excessive taxes and living off the state while the people suffered. This top scholar, personally appointed by the emperor, had his integrity questioned, prompting Zhu Yuanzhang to investigate personally.... more>>

Li Fan was accused of blocking roads to collect tolls, arbitrarily imposing harsh taxes, paying lip service while disobeying imperial orders, inventing excuses, and extorting excessive taxes.

Tax collection had become so excessive that it felt like it had continued into the year 2050. The people of the Ming Dynasty had become impoverished, raising concerns about their ability to live well.

Zhu Yuanzhang: Today we will execute this treacherous official Li Fan. I doubt the Ming Dynasty can last two thousand years with such corruption.

Empress Ma: Li Fan is a crucial minister of the state! Ensuring the continuity of the Ming Dynasty for two thousand years!

Zhu Biao: Father, Li Fan only collects taxes from the wealthy, allowing the common people to live in peace and prosperity!

Zhu Di: Father, Li Fan helped me defeat the Franks and said we should collect taxes for five thousand years first! <<less

Before his reincarnation, Wen Yu always thought that his childhood sweetheart, Fu Chengque, was like the snow on the high mountain, unattainable.... more>>

But later, he realized that she was not ice and snow at all. She was clearly a penguin standing on ice. With one slip of her foot, she tumbled down the mountain…

Next door.

Fu Chengque looked at her golden finger and felt extremely puffed up! She wrote hastily: “I, the future empress, the superhuman, the destined deity Fu Chengque, am recruiting talents! Help friends regardless of reason, sign up quickly!”

But her tasks were not only related to her childhood sweetheart Wen Yu, but each one was super difficult!

【Make Wen Yu say “But I like it.”】

【Have a candlelight dinner with Wen Yu.】

【Whisper to Wen Yu for ten minutes.】

She’s just a girl, not a lover. How could she possibly complete them!

What’s absurd is that, although things didn’t go as expected, she still completed them all!

“So how many people have I killed with this hand? Hundreds? Thousands?”

“Uh… you haven’t killed a single person?”

“I haven’t killed a single person, and they call me an evil woman?”

“My teammates are protecting me, but I can kill the five of them”... more>>

Lin Xiao is the canary that Ji Shijin keeps by his side. He doesn’t have to do anything every day and has a bunch of gold cards to swipe casually. Not until Ji Shijin’s first love returns and he is kicked out of the house.

The homeless Lin Xiao stayed up in an Internet cafe for the night and was tricked into playing AD for a team with a box of instant noodles by a desperate manager.

At the beginning, everyone had low expectations for the canary. Who was a picky eater, needed to use milk for bathing, and had to go to bed at exactly nine o’clock.

Later, in a game, he achieved three pentakills. Causing numerous teams to fight over him, eager to recruit him at any cost.

The teammates gradually turned into licking dogs. Always protecting him during the game. Even the mid laner, who always went his own way, would personally help him buy milk and test the water temperature for him.

At first, Lin Xiao just wanted to live a better life, but unexpectedly, he became the favorite of the team and their main support. He didn’t let everyone down and led them to the World Championships.

When the former owner came to see him, Lin Xiao said, “I don’t want to be your canary anymore.”

—

Ji Shijin was still waiting for his canary to come back and admit his mistakes. But instead, he saw him open a live broadcast with a messy hairdo, looking like he hadn’t slept, and said to his fans with a sleepy face, “En, I promise you all. If we make it to the World Championships, I’ll do a month-long live stream in women’s clothing.”

Seeing that the canary he cared for was “struggling” to make a living, Ji Shijin finally decided to forgive him.

Later, he arrived outside the team’s gate, hoping to take Lin Xiao home.

The mid laner holds him by his shoulders with a vigilant look. The support of the team stood in front of him, smiling. The jungler was eager to fight and crouch down. The top laner already had TP around the back. Lin Xiao, who still looked sleepy, said, “I’m sorry, they are used to protecting me.”

Ji Shijin, who was burning with anger, impulsively invested ten billion yuan to establish a new team. No one knew how much he regretted it. That night, he said something unpleasant to his canary: “You’re just a bird that I raised. Just behave yourself and listen to me. What’s the point of showing off?”

— self-reliance, self-improvement —

Reading guide:

Giselle Anticia had only three things to her name.

A facade called ‘the Lady of the Barony of Vale’.

Lucas Taylor, the wealthiest man in the kingdom.

Though he was a commoner by birth, it was never a flaw.

In a world where ‘money’ was valued more than the hollow honor of nobility, he wielded the greatest power.

And it was solely because of a woman that he ended up making an absurd ‘investment’.

Giselle Anticia.

His former academy junior and current employee.

She was supposed to become the bride of an elderly nobleman because of her father’s debts.

It was unjust for a smart and talented woman to give up her future for such a reason.

Even the thought of the old man dragging her into bed made him nauseous.

That’s why Lucas made the outrageous proposal.

The only condition he presented was that she would pay off all her debts.
Despite her impolite gaze that seemed to ask, ‘Are you out of your mind?’, he persisted. <<less
