Howard And Hilda Ever Decreasing Circles

Sequel to Lord of Mysteries

Qing Xia struggled in the apocalypse, living a life worse than death. He had always envied those who died early, spared from experiencing this wretched existence after the world's end: black, polluted air; barren, cracked lands; toxic, contaminated water; and humans who no longer looked human at all. He truly wanted to escape this life, but he couldn't—not after his family sacrificed their lives so he could survive. So, he fought. He struggled. He bled, sweated, and cried until he became one of the last survivors on this desolate earth. However, during one of his team's routine purification missions, Qing Xia died... He thought that was the end, but he didn't expect to be reborn—in the body of an idol, no less! And this idol was on the verge of being kicked out of the entertainment industry. "Fine, whatever. I'll retire and become an otaku. I'll eat, drink, and sleep in peace…" In this peaceful world, he wanted to live his new life as Sian to the fullest, and in the best way possible. But...

Smugglers?... Damn it, damn it, leave me alone! I just want to live a lazy otaku life. Go do your business far away from me. Sian tried to live quietly, but life rarely goes as planned…And the winds do not blow as the ships wish. He found himself entangled in situations he could never escape. ---------------------------- A short skit : Someone: "Darling, help me deal with these people." Sian: "Stay away from me.

How about I just cut it off for you?" Someone, stripping Sian’s clothes: "Darling, you look so beautiful when you’re angry. I can’t take it anymore." Sian: "Go to hell! Ah—ahh! Stop it—stop!
