“I, Shen Miaomiao, reluctantly took over a game company at the start.”... more>>

Fortunately, the rebate system awakened just in time. As long as the company incurred losses, the system would compensate me with ten times the amount!

So, the goal of this young CEO is to bring the company down! Financial freedom!

“I, Gu Sheng, transmigrated into a game designer at the start.”

Fortunately, the Game Treasury System awakened, allowing me to climb to the throne of the Game King by creating hit games!

So, the goal of this Game Director is to expand and create brilliance once again!

…

When a laid-back CEO encounters a determined game designer, the company’s direction gradually becomes abstract.

“You said no one plays mech games? What is this ‘Titan’s Fall’ you created?”

“You said the horror game market is lacking? What’s the deal with this ‘Escape’ game?”

“You said second-generation shooters are easy to lose money? Are you remaking ‘Call of Duty’?”

As Shen Miaomiao looked at the profitable financial reports, her mind buzzed.

Not a single penny was lost, so she made up her mind!

“From now on, let’s torture the players mercilessly!”

She couldn’t believe that she couldn’t lose this money!

Upon hearing this, Gu Sheng unfolded a stack of game proposals in his hands.

“Boss, take a look at these—’Black Blood Renegade’ and ‘Wolf.’ Which one should we start with?” <<less

Shang Que accidentally awakens to the plot of a novel and realizes that her ill-tempered top-star younger brother, Ji Jingchuan, is actually the villain in the story.... more>>

In a variety show, he is sharp-tongued, troublesome, and constantly making things difficult for the male and female leads. Ultimately, under the contrast of their protagonist halo, he is condemned by the entire internet and tragically killed in a car accident orchestrated by anti-fans.

However, Shang Que and Ji Jingchuan do not have a good relationship. Just two minutes ago, they were still arguing on Weibo.

The manager pushes open the door. “‘Friendship’s Little Boat’ has sent an invitation, but Ji Jingchuan is also a guest. I assume you wouldn’t—”

“Accept.”

The manager is stunned. “But Ji Jingchuan will be there too. You two better not start fighting on the show.”

Shang Que sneers. She is determined to show everyone what true familial suppression looks like!

Ji Jingchuan, infamous for his terrible temper in the entertainment industry, suddenly binds to a system one day. The system informs him that, in the upcoming variety show, he will serve as a foil to the male and female leads, get condemned by the entire internet, and end up in a miserable downfall.

Worse still, the sister he always thought didn’t love him will ultimately die tragically while seeking justice for him.

【System: Host, are you furious? Good! Use that rage to—】

Before the system can finish speaking, the delicate-looking young man erupts in fury. “If you’ve got guts, come for me! What kind of coward goes after Shang Que?! I’ll kill, kill, KILL!!!”

System: ?

Everyone knows that rising actress Shang Que and top-star Ji Jingchuan do not get along. Even before their fans start fighting, they’re already at each other’s throats.

Moreover, any program featuring one of them can never get the other to join.

So when news breaks that the two of them will appear on the same variety show, netizens are shocked. “Oh no, are they going to fight until they’re both bleeding?!”

On the show—

During breakfast preparation, Shang Que steps into the kitchen, only to be shoved out by Ji Jingchuan.

“You’re completely useless in the kitchen. What are you even doing here? Don’t blow the place up.”

Netizens: See? I told you they’d start fighting!

Then, Ji Jingchuan swiftly cooks a bowl of seafood noodles and slams it down in front of Shang Que. “Eat!”

Netizens: ?

During a puzzle challenge, Ji Jingchuan messes things up, growing increasingly frustrated. Just as he’s about to lose his temper, Shang Que kicks him aside. “Idiot.”

Netizens: Shang Que is clearly fed up with him.

Then, Shang Que calmly and methodically solves the puzzle, pointing as she explains, “See? Next time, do it like this.”

Ji Jingchuan: “Oh, got it.”

Netizens: ?

Midway through the show, there is an option to switch partners.

Netizens, convinced that these two who can’t stand each other will finally go their separate ways, eagerly wait for the moment.

However—

Ji Jingchuan: “Switch? Switch with who? Are you prettier than Shang Que? Are you smarter than her? Are you more capable than she is?”

Shang Que: “Even though he’s an idiot, the others aren’t much better.”

Netizens: ?

Later, when it is revealed that they are actually biological siblings, netizens finally understand.

“I knew it! Only family could fight like this and still stick together!”

[Rerolling Talents at the Start + Early Beta Test Access] ... more>>

Early Talent: [God of Thieves] (S-Level)

Midgame Evolution: [One-Person Party] (SS-Level)

"A free soul is never bound by the thorns of nobility. There’s no need to ascend to the divine altar or sugarcoat our deeds. We are thieves lurking in the shadows—know yourself, and then revel in unbridled joy."

As the world turns into a game, every player awakens a divinely bestowed talent:

[Holy Light] , [Immortal] , [Breath of Winter] , [Frozen Throne] , [Elegance Never Goes Out of Style] , [Clock Out, Then Become a Chef God] , [Best Supporting Role] , [Marshmallow] , [Butter Beer] , and so on...

After being reborn, the first thing Yu Xunge does is rush home to force-feed her brother—soon to marry into the Su family—a bottle of liquor, ensuring he misses the first beta test of the game.

In her past life, this s*umbag had manipulated her endlessly. It wasn’t until her dying moments that she discovered he had been scheming against her from the shadows all along.

On her deathbed, she learned she was nothing more than the villain in a male-oriented novel about a live-in son-in-law’s rise to power. All the malice and suffering she endured? It was him shifting blame onto her from behind the scenes.

This time, it’s her turn to operate in the shadows.

Male and female leads? All your fortunes? They’re mine now.

Every day when Cheng Shaofeng wakes up, his first goal is to make this world… a little more like a video game.

The players exclaim:

“This game is so grind-heavy! I find new materials every day!”

“There are tens of thousands of skill combinations, and I can even learn skills from random passersby. I’m going to max out the skill wall at the base!”

“Enough talk, the Lord just announced a new map has opened. I’m going to speedrun the dungeon and write a guide for the others to farm it!”

“The world boss has appeared, everyone, let’s grind it together!”

Watching the players grind until their eyes turn red, Cheng Shaofeng shrugs:

“You can see for yourself, it’s not that I want to rule the apocalypse—it’s just that they can’t stop grinding!” <<less

In the Great Xia Federation, inside a gaming livestream:

“Alright, that wraps up our experience with this anti-war game. I’d give it a 4. Now, let’s check out the next anti-war game… Huh?”

“Starting off with an immersive storyline? The game’s called… Normandy Landing?”

“Looks like a landing operation scenario. The streamer’s on an assault boat, but positioned toward the back—can’t really see what’s happening up front.”

"Ren, are you interested in video streaming?"... more>>

Ren, who had no particular hobbies besides dungeon exploration, was suddenly approached with this question by one of his few friends, Yuya.

"Streaming? Do I look like someone who’d be interested in that?"

"No, not really."

"Then don’t waste your breath. Besides, I already turned down your offer to appear in your videos before."

Just as Ren enjoyed dungeon exploration, Yuya’s hobby was video streaming. He had asked Ren to appear in his videos several times, but Ren, having no interest, had refused every time. However, this time, things seemed different.

"That’s not what I mean. I’m suggesting you create your own channel and try streaming yourself."

"You really think someone who won’t even appear in your videos would bother with something that complicated? Or does this have something to do with you complaining about your channel not growing?"

"I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t related—but that’s not the only reason. This could benefit you too."

"Benefit me?"

"Yeah. Remember how you were complaining about the rise in explorers with bad manners recently?"

It was true—he had complained about that.

In the past, all items obtained through dungeon exploration had to be submitted to the government first. After evaluating whether personal ownership would be allowed, explorers were either permitted to keep their finds or compensated with money if the government decided to retain them. There were also many other regulations that put explorers at a disadvantage.

Frustrated by risking their lives for what felt like an unfair system, many Japanese explorers had started leaving the country for more explorer-friendly nations. Seeing the situation as a serious problem, the Japanese government made sweeping reforms last year, making it easier for explorers to earn a living.

But as a side effect, there had been an influx of beginners treating dungeon exploration like a casual part-time job—leading to a surge in bad behavior.

"Sure, most of those rule-breakers are probably students, but I think the biggest reason is that there just aren’t enough chances for people to learn proper etiquette—especially through platforms that young people actually use."

Yuya had a point.

Unlike those seeking to make a fortune, Ren became an explorer simply because he loved dungeons. He constantly studied on his own to improve. But for someone just looking to make easy money, knowing the basic rules was enough—there was little reason to dive deeper into learning proper manners.

"But even if I did a stream about dungeon etiquette, who would bother watching it? And making videos involves more than just shooting footage, right?"

"I’ll handle everything except the filming. What I need from you is to record inside the dungeon."

"Inside the dungeon?"

"Yeah. It’s easier to understand if you show the rules in action instead of just explaining them."

"I see…"

And so, with a little push from Yuya’s smooth-talking, Ren reluctantly agreed to start streaming. <<less
