This System Is Toxic, But I Can't Quit It
by HGNORTH
Lin Mo, a 24-year-old office worker earning 6k a month, whose biggest wish in life is a raise. Then he gets a wish-granting system. System 777: cheap, sharp-tongued, with a Northeastern accent, a glowing blue meatball with two mung bean eyes. Wishes come true, but the cost is randomly rolled—from 'social death for three hours' to 'dying on the toilet for twelve hours,' all kinds of absurd stuff. Lin Mo: Can I switch systems? 777: No, dear, no refunds or exchanges. Ever since getting this system, Lin Mo has been bouncing between making wishes, social death, and temporary death. Even weirder—he discovers he's not the only one with this broken system. Thirteen hosts are scattered around, some pretending to be dead, others on their way to cause trouble. This is an abstract, unhinged story about wishes, costs, social death, and finding it oddly satisfying. Wishing feels great at first, but the cost is a funeral pyre. — Description from novelcodex.org
