I'm not a drama god

My name is Chen Yan.

I am a genius in the art of drama.

The man wearing a mask and calling himself the "Red King" told me this time and time again... He said, I must hold my head high and be confident at all times, because in this era, there will never be another drama god with more potential than me.

He said, I will definitely become a demigod in the future...

But what is a demigod?

After that rainy night, Red King stayed in District 3, and I didn't go home either. My brother was dead, and there were only two adoptive parents left at home who wanted to kill me. I didn't want to go back, and I didn't know how to face them.

The Red King took me to live in the woods behind the mountain. He taught me many things... such as the secret techniques of "singing, reciting, acting and fighting".

"You are not a practitioner of Xishendao, so why do you know the secret techniques of Xishendao?" I asked him.

"I really don't know how to do it." The Red King smiled, "But I once met a Drama God who didn't belong to this era. He knew these things, so before I came to you, I specifically asked him for advice... I just repeated what he said to you verbatim."

The Red King touched my head and said:

"He's a very special person. You'll meet him in the future... His last name is Sun."

I seem to have some talent. The Red King only relayed part of the words of the Opera God, and I slowly figured out the complete secret method.

Especially the secret method of "singing". I always feel that it is a waste of talent to only use this technique to sing the "lyrics" of the opera scripts of the past. This secret method can affect people's souls through the opera voice and singing tune, and it should have more powerful uses.

These days, he took care of me like a family member, cooking for me, teaching me secret techniques, and washing my dirty costumes...

I asked him why he was so nice to me.

He said……

Because I am the hope of the next world.

I don't understand what he means... I have no relatives in this world anymore. My brother is dead and my adoptive parents want to kill me. Now he is the person I trust the most.

I asked him if I could become his disciple. After all, he had taught me a lot about Shinto, realms, and the secrets of opera, and I had already considered him my master.

He was stunned when he heard this question.

He thought about it for a long time.

Then he refused.

He said that he had never accepted an apprentice and didn't want to, and if I wanted, I could treat him as my brother.

He taught me in the back mountain for three days, and within those three days, I had mastered the complete four secret techniques.

That day, he told me that he was leaving...

I asked him what he was going to do.

He said the Red King always has his own things to do.

I felt a little regretful. Did I learn too quickly? If I were a little dumber and learned more slowly, could he have stayed a few more days?

Before leaving, he gave me a playing card, a jade pendant, and a strange piece of metal.

"From now on, you are the Six of Hearts of the Twilight Society," he said. "Do you remember our Twilight Society's goal?"

"Reverse the times and restart the world."

He kept repeating this sentence for the past three days, and I remember it very clearly.

"Well... in a while, I'll issue you a mission through the Twilight Society. If you encounter an unsolvable and fatal danger during the mission, crush this jade pendant and I'll come to rescue you."

I nodded. "What is this?"

"This is an archive of the times."

He patiently told me everything about the Time Archive. He said that this was the key for the Twilight Society to open the next world and the future of mankind. And now... the future of mankind is paved by me.

After listening to him, I was very nervous and scared.

I shoved the file back into his hands.

"This is too expensive. I... I dare not..."

How can I, a newcomer who has just stepped into the path of Xishendao for a few days, a first-level Xishendao, dare to shoulder the future of the entire human race?

But he didn't listen to my explanation, stuffed the file back in, and said seriously:

"You are the Six of Hearts. There are some things you will have to face sooner or later."

"You can use it with confidence..."

"Even if you fail, I'll cover for you."

After he said that, I felt too embarrassed to refuse and finally accepted the file.

Before he left, I was uneasy for a long time, but finally I tentatively entered the era archive...

It was a very strange time for me.

I pushed open the door of the toilet and saw a magnificent palace-like building with countless gorgeous scrolling plaques hanging above the shops, selling things I had never seen before.

I searched for a long time before I found the door to leave the building. But tall buildings like this were everywhere outside, and there were all kinds of cars on the road, none of which I had seen in the Aurora Realm. Everyone was dressed very strangely, and my costume looked out of place inside...

Nervous, uneasy, fearful, confused...

This era is so grand.

There, I was like a lost lamb.

Red King told me that after entering the era archive, the first thing to do is to go to a place called Shennongjia to get to know the Nine Lords.

But I was like an ant on a hot pan, searching for a long time at that time, but I couldn't find the boundary train to Shennongjia. I asked passers-by, and they said that to get to Shennongjia I had to take a plane, transfer to the high-speed rail, and then take a bus... I didn't understand, I really didn't understand.

After finally being taken to the airport, I got lost for a long time. They told me to buy a ticket, but then they asked for my ID...

That day, I missed the time that the Red King mentioned for the Jiujun exploration.

I really regret it. Why am I not from this era? If I understood this era well enough, I wouldn't have wasted so much time here, and I wouldn't have missed the Nine Lords exploration that the Red King mentioned...

I am such a loser.

After coming out of the archive, I cried for a long time. I betrayed the Red King's trust in me and destroyed the future of mankind.

I didn't sleep for two days and two nights. The huge pressure made me almost collapse. Finally, I walked out of the back mountain, but on my way to buy food, I was discovered by the organ dealers on Bingquan Street...

I'm only level one, and I don't have any offensive skills, but I tried my best to fight with them!

Face swap!

camouflage!

The secret of drama!

I regretted countless times why I embarked on the path of the God of Drama. If I were the God of War, perhaps I could have killed them head-on... It snowed heavily those days, and I was like a rat in the gutter, always waiting for an opportunity in the dark.

Finally... I found it.

At a suitable opportunity, I stole the ring-like sacrificial vessel and killed them with my own hands.

That was the first time I killed someone in my life...

The strong smell of blood made me feel nauseous and want to vomit. I stood on the messy ground full of corpses, my hands still shaking uncontrollably, but my heart was beating stronger than ever... I was terrified, I was scared, but... I stepped on their corpses and straightened my spine.

yes……

This world does not need a weak and harmless Chen Yan.

Now that I have embarked on this path, weakness is my original sin. My weak spine will become a fatal weakness, and my fragile emotions will become the root cause of all failures. From the rainy night when I was rescued by the Red King, the once harmless Chen Yan disappeared... The Red King has high hopes for me, and I don't want to let him down.

My name is Chen Yan.

I am the [Heart 6] of the Twilight Society.
