Wannabe Shine

Asmon had always been that guy—the wannabe influencer with big dreams but even bigger fails. His last-ditch attempt to create life-changing content went spectacularly wrong... so wrong, in fact, that it killed him. Yup, gone. Kaput. Lights out. But apparently, fate—or maybe some bored author up there—had other plans for him. Instead of staying six feet under, Asmon woke up in Valorcrest Land, a world where martial artists could punch mountains into dust, cultivate immortality, and basically make every kung-fu movie look like amateur hour. Oh, and the cherry on top? He transmigrated into the wealthy but cutthroat Thrumpwood family, where everyone’s flexing their talent like it’s an Olympic sport. Just when Asmon was about to spiral into existential dread, he got a ding—like the notification you’d get when someone finally liked your meme—but this one changed everything. "Congratulations!

If you’re unwilling, I’ll find someone else who can get the marriage certificates today.” His expression darkened as he pulled her close. “Once offered to me, it’s mine alone.” Unfazed, Arwen asked, “So, do you accept? If yes, we’ll get the certificates now.” “On one condition,” he said. “I don’t do contract marriages. The woman I marry will be the woman I share my bed with. If you agree, then we’ll—” “Not a problem. Let’s go,” Arwen said without letting him finish, pulling him into the Civil Marriage Bureau.
