From Shusheng Bar:

I: “General manager, I only said I will cook but did not agree to wash the dishes.”

He: “If you don’t wash the dishes, do you expect me to wash them?”

I: “Do you know a woman is most attracted to a man who can do housework? Especially when he is wearing an apron and washing the dishes. This is the ideal image of a good man in the thinking of a majority of the women. In order to create the prefect image of a good man, I feel it is necessary for you to wash the dishes.”

He: “A man who washes the dishes is really very attractive?”

I: “Really!”

He: “Well, I will believe you this once.”

He: “Xia Ye, come into the kitchen.”

I: “Do you need me to help you with something?”

He: “Just stand there and don’t move.”

I: “…..?”

I: “If there is nothing I can help you with, I’ll go out.”

He: “Standstill!”

I: “You asked me to come in, just to….. watch you wash the dishes?”

Me: “If you don’t watch, what is the point of me washing the dishes?”

I: “…..”

He is distressed: “I fell in love with a person, but I do not know how to say to her.”

I suggested: “This is simple! Directly tell her I love you, should be all right?”

He is worried: “But …… I’m worried that she will not accept me.”

I comforted: “How can since you are such an outstanding man? There must be something wrong with her brain if she doesn’t accept you!”

He nodded: “Well, I love you!”

I: “…… Huh, there is something wrong with my brain ……”

He: “……”

“When your gacha waifues are real but so are the monsters.”Leon had finally made it. After nearly a decade of surviving off instant noodles and blind faith in himself, he created the most chaotic, soul-crushing, and waifu-filled gacha game the world had ever seen. Then he sold it, bought a Bugatti, and hit the road to touch grass like any gamer should.Of course, the universe didn’t let that slide. How can a Gamer touch grass?One glowing portal. One crash. One very unexpected reincarnation later—he wakes up in his own game world.A world crawling with mutated, Abyssal beasts, corrupted cities, and a virus that’s slowly wiping out the population, especially males.A world where men are protected assets, female-led militaries run everything, and of course, there is also another world that is fully Corrupted connected to his new world.Now bound to a mysterious SSS-Rank Dungeon that activates when he sleeps, Leon has one goal: survive and become stronger.Which is easier said than done when every death comes with boosted pain, his system is still syncing, and half the girls he designed could probably bench-press a tank.But hey—at least they’re hot and lovable. That's what matters in the end anyways.....Just a heads up.This novel will be an amalgamation of everything with action, adventure, waifues, gacha game world building and all, comedy, harem, character interactions, emotional moments, desparation moments cuz it's apocalyptic world bruh. A good lore and all too.Smut will be less as I want to focus more on their character development and interaction in the harem rather than just sex.
