I'm not a drama god

The moment the last voice rang in its ears.

The human half of his body suddenly shuddered, as if he had recalled everything, and his right fist clenched involuntarily... He frantically suppressed the violent and greedy personality of the other half, while breathing heavily.

“My name is Wen Shilin, and I am a reporter from Aurora City.”

"You...and all your malice..."

"You can't deny me!!!"

Wen Shilin, kneeling on one knee, roared and slammed his fist, with bulging veins, into the other half of his dark face. A whistling sound suddenly rang out!

The iron fist of justice!!

boom--! !

With a muffled thud, the figure knocked himself to the ground with a punch.

The entire theater fell into a deathly silence.

I do not know how long it has been,

A figure staggered, supporting themselves on the floor, and slowly stood up...

Furthermore, the beast-like scarlet eyes had disappeared, replaced by a pair of clear and determined eyes. At the same time, the blackness on his body receded like a tide, completely transforming him into a human youth wearing a vest.

He was the second "human" to appear on this stage.

The moment he completely took control of this personality, the monster that was originally going berserk and smashing the earth in the real world also fell into a coma, and its appearance gradually changed to resemble his...

But at the same time, the aura of world destruction that was once at its peak receded like the tide, and it seemed to have completely turned into an ordinary person.

"call……"

Under the spotlight, Wen Shilin's gaze swept across the densely packed, eerily crowded audience below, and he let out a long sigh... He couldn't help but mutter to himself:

"So you're used to facing monsters like this every day...?"

"Lin Yan".

Even Wen Shilin felt his scalp tingle at the sight before him, but having been a reporter for so many years, he had seen his fair share of disgusting scenes, so he quickly recovered.

He roughly knew why he was there, because the last few lines of his life's script had already mentioned it... and the last line of the script was:

"I need to rescue Lin Yan."

Wen Shilin strode forward and walked straight to the edge of the stage.

His gaze swept over the audience, all of whom looked exactly alike. Finding Chen Ling among them would be an impossible task...

But Wen Shilin wasn't worried about that. He was very good at observing, summarizing, finding people, and rescuing people.

He walked slowly to the edge of the stage as he began to speak:

"Lin Yan".

"No... to be honest, you still haven't told me your real name."

"Do you remember? When we were about to part ways in Aurora City, you told me that if we ever met again outside the Aurora Realm, you would tell me your name..."

"I'm standing right here now..."

"What are you waiting for?"

Wen Shilin's calm voice echoed in the theater.

Upon hearing this, a "spectator" in the dark in the first row of the theater seemed to have some memory awakened. Struggle reappeared in his empty eyes, and his body trembled slightly.

Wen Shilin caught a glimpse of this spot out of the corner of his eye, a faint smile playing on his lips. He walked step by step to the edge of the stage where the figure was located…

Then he gently sat down in front of the audience.

"Lin Yan".

"I never thought we would have a chance to meet again."

"I never imagined I would come back to life in this way... No, perhaps I didn't come back to life at all; I'm just another 'me' perfectly copied here..."

"But... how can this not be considered another kind of rebirth?"

The audience member struggled more and more intensely. It was the first time he had ever heard someone speak to him in a theater... and it was someone he knew from the past, someone deeply etched in his memory.

The black paint on his face peeled away bit by bit, like plaster falling off a wall, revealing a painted face that had been prepared beforehand. But at this moment, his eyes were still struggling in confusion and emptiness.

Looking at him like this, Wen Shilin's eyes flashed with heartache, and his voice became even gentler:

“I don’t know what year it is now, nor do I know what you’ve been through since leaving the Aurora Realm… but I imagine it must have been a difficult and arduous journey.”

"I'm just an ordinary person, a reporter who's not very useful... Even if you tell me about all the difficulties along the way, I might not understand, let alone be of any help..."

"but……"

"This time, I think I can actually help you."

Wen Shilin stood at the edge of the stage, reaching out his hand to Chen Ling, whose face was gradually regaining its rosy hue... and then stepped off the stage!

The instant Wen Shilin stepped off the stage, he suddenly pulled Chen Ling, who was sitting in the audience, up from her seat. The two figures crossed paths in that instant...

He forcibly dragged Chen Ling onto the stage!

The moment their hands touched, Chen Ling felt as if he had woken from a nightmare. The first thing he saw upon waking was Wen Shilin smiling as he passed by him, his lips slightly parted:

"Lin Yan..."

"I'm so happy to see you again."

Chen Ling was stunned.

Having just regained his memories, he had no idea what was going on before he heard a thud and stumbled to the edge of the stage...

The two protagonists took less than half a second to switch places, and before other audience members could even react and rush onto the stage to grab the spotlight, a new protagonist had already been born.

After Wen Shilin stepped down, the pitch-black darkness began to climb up his body. He staggered and sat down in the spot where Chen Ling had just sat, and then it was as if he was nailed there, unable to move an inch.

Chen Ling, sitting at the edge of the stage, finally came to her senses!

"……Thanks."

Chen Ling looked at that familiar face she hadn't seen in a long time, her gaze filled with complex emotions.

He had personally devised this plan, and he had long believed that Wen Shilin would help him return to the stage... But when his old friend actually appeared before him, as if reborn, he was filled with mixed emotions.

Without hesitation, he immediately added:

"My name isn't actually Lin Yan... my name is Chen Ling."

Upon hearing this, Wen Shilin's smile deepened. Even though darkness had enveloped most of him and he felt his consciousness and self being suppressed again, he didn't panic. Instead, he calmly adjusted his vest and tie, as well as the camera hanging around his neck.

He looked up at Chen Ling, like a newly purchased ticket holder sitting down, smiling and waiting for the performance to begin.

"No matter what happens, I will always be in the audience supporting you."

"in addition……"

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Chen Ling."
