Quite The Theatrical Inheritance, isn't it?

Daoistasj30T
Takashi Akiyama had spent his entire life dwelling in the shadows—a nameless face in crowded hallways, a ghost among classmates, his only solace found in the worn pages of forgotten books. Bullied, overlooked, and orphaned since birth, Takashi had long accepted his fate as just another invisible boy in an uncaring world. But everything changed the day fate knocked on his door—quite literally—with the news of an unexpected inheritance: a vast fortune, worth billions of yen, left behind by a grandfather he had never known. And with it came secrets… and danger. Later, beneath the flickering light of a classroom’s ceiling lamp, Mizuki stood before him—no longer the predator, but something else entirely. Her voice trembled: “My father ordered me to kill you… but I refused.” The room seemed to still. Then— A sharp knock. Gunshots. Screams behind the door. In that split second, Takashi saw his life shatter. Hinata, blood seeping from the deep gash across her back, stumbled into view. “Run!” she cried, her voice raw, desperate. Mizuki, collapsed beside him, tears streaking her perfect face. “Forgive me...” she whispered. In that moment, Takashi realized: He was no longer the invisible boy. He was the target. And the war for his future had just begun.

This Game Is Too Real

Author's message to webnovel readers: Hello everyone, I am Morning Star LL, and I am delighted to meet you all in this way! To be honest, I never imagined that my work would have such a large readership outside China. I was absolutely astonished when my editor told me there were thousands of comments. Before this, my writings were primarily aimed at Chinese readers, and it never crossed my mind that my words would one day be translated into another language. I am both humbled and grateful. I am also extremely honored that my recent work, "This Game is Too Real," has been given the opportunity to reach an international audience. Unlike my previous works, this book is probably the one into which I've invested the most time and effort. It is set in a fictional post-apocalyptic wasteland. The story mainly revolves around a once-thriving civilization that collapses overnight after a disaster. The MC from Earth uses a legacy system to disguise the entire world as a game, leading players on a quest to save civilization. It intertwines the fates of the struggling survivors in the wasteland with mutual redemption, while also uncovering the historical truths buried beneath the dust. This book contains several easter eggs with "Scholar's Advanced Technological System," but mentioning them might spoil the story, so I'll leave it to the readers to discover! Moreover, the overall tone of the book remains cheerful and light-hearted. Despite the world being harsh and full of danger, I believe that even in the darkest moments, the warmth and resilience inherent in humanity will continue to shine brightly, emitting the power to dispel the darkness. It would be my greatest honor if my words resonate with you! And the word "resonate" is also a major clue within the story itself. Thank you! by Morning Star LL —————————————— This game is too freaking realistic! Bricklaying, running errands, picking up trash, delivering parcels... At most, the company lets you experience the hardships of a 996 schedule, but here you can feel the extreme bonus of 007. Alright, enough chit-chat, the great Manager has called me to lay some bricks. That Manager said that as long as we work our livers off, he can get a brand-new set of power armor next month, and then he'll take us to explore a brand new map, picking up even more trash in the vast Wasteland! ... After teleporting to the Waste World, Chu Guang discovered that he had unlocked the "shelter system" and could summon creatures called "players" from a parallel world. From that day on, nothing in the Waste World was normal anymore.
