Superpower manga artist Kobayashi Narumi

Synopsis

Lin Chengshi is a manga creator who finds himself transported directly into the world of his own serialization. His initial strategy involves blending into the background as a supporting character, hoping to avoid the spotlight while relying on the kindness of the original lead. However, an unforeseen butterfly effect results in the premature death of that very protagonist, leaving Lin—now operating under the name Salem—to navigate a dangerous landscape alone. Lacking significant combat abilities, he spends his time attempting to bring the deceased back to life, often relying on others for protection. The irony lies in the perception of the story's internal audience; forum users mistake his helplessness for a calculated act of deception, casting him as a menacing mastermind. This lighthearted yet tense journey rewards those who enjoy dramatic irony and the chaos of an author trapped in their own flawed creation, though the reliance on misunderstandings might grate on those seeking a straightforward power climb.
