Chapter 2.1

When Sui Yuan opens his eyes again, the first thing he sees is the muzzle of a pistol pressed unwaveringly to his forehead. A pretty, but cold young woman stands on the other end of the weapon, as if…no, it’s more like when he even so much as twitches, she would immediately open fire and blow his brains out.

Therefore, Sui Yuan makes the sensible decision to keep absolutely still.

The young woman scrutinises his face thoroughly, then eventually deigns to open her mouth. “He Haochen?”

Sui Yuan nods lightly once, serene gaze locked on her cautious one.

The unknown lady exhales a little heavily, tension draining from her body. A little bit of warmth returns to her eyes, and she moves the muzzle of the gun away from his head. “Congratulations in finally crossing this obstacle and profiting from disaster. Does your body feel any different? Do you know what sort of ability you gained?”

“I’m still feeling a little confused.” Sui Yuan’s expression remains extremely calm, causing 5237 to continuously give him a thumbs-up. “Could you give me a moment to sort myself out?”

“Of course.” The young woman nods, a faint smile surfacing.

Sitting up, Sui Yuan covers his face with both hands and begins to skim over the details of his second assignment.

As expected, he really received the lowest score possible for his previous task. If it wasn’t for him conscientiously slaving away to ensure the ending remained the same, his points would probably have dropped to the negatives. After all, turning a BG world into a BL one is a very serious matter.

However, what truly surprised Sui Yuan is when he returned to the meeting point between worlds – the place of his creation – he ran into Qin Zheng. It was then he finally realized the other party is his colleague, a senior who played the role of the male lead.

Still, Sui Yuan feels somewhat wronged, as almost eighty percent of the responsibility in the last world is heaped on Qin Zheng’s shoulders. As an actor taking on the role of the male lead, he actually consciously diverted from the original plotline. How rude and irresponsible! It’s a shame, but Sui Yuan has never been one to cry over spilt milk. Therefore, he merely flashes the other a friendly smile before departing, praying in his heart that he will never have to work with this guy again. Cooperating with a pig teammate like that is akin to asking for one’s life!

Anyway, back to his current task. Right now, Sui Yuan has been given the role of a man named He Haochen. As an actor without a name of his own, he is of the opinion that addressing himself using a different name in each world is a very inconvenient thing, which is why Sui Yuan takes the opportunity to discuss with his system, ensuring that hereafter, he will continue using the name he was given in the first world, Sui Yuan. After all, the name of the character he is replacing is not his own.

Naturally, the character he is filling in as, He Haochen, is this world’s supporting male lead, and the young woman who held a gun to his head is the female lead, Leng Xia. At this point of the story, she has experienced rebirth. In her previous life, she died after surviving quite a few years into the apocalypse, then found herself being transported back in time, to the period just before Judgment Day.

As a rule of thumb for rebirth worlds, before the apocalypse arrives again, the main character will definitely come across other pleasant surprises. For example, personal interdimensional space and whatnots – as according to 5237’s ramblings.

Before Sui Yuan took on He Haochen’s role, the character was bitten by a zombie. Afraid that he will turn onto one of those creatures, the other survivors want to kill him, but are prevented from doing so by Leng Xia who knows the future. She knows He Haochen will not transform. Instead, he will become one of the most powerful Ability Users out there. In addition, He Haochen is the first man Leng Xia came to trust after her rebirth.
