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.

After losing her job, Wan Qian unexpectedly inherits the estate of an distant great-uncle—a remote countryside farm. She originally thought she could enjoy a leisurely rural life, working at sunrise and resting at sunset. However, she soon discovers that the farm is unbelievably strange—animals on the farm produce crops, whispers rustle from the wardrobe at midnight, and what flows from the faucet is not clear water but thick red liquid… Even more absurd, interns who come to work always mysteriously "resign," leaving only a calm and composed butler who hands her a new labor contract with a smile every day. Faced with all this, Wan Qian optimistically rolls up her sleeves: "Alright then, running a farm isn't easy. I have to find a way to turn a profit." So, using outrageous workplace logic and farm management experience, she tames an eldritch god into a guard dog, hires a midnight butcher as a chef, and even enlists a faceless girl as an accountant… While others tremble in fear, she leisurely patrols the farmland: "No slacking off! If performance targets aren't met, your wages will be docked." Thus, a farm where "humans and ghosts and monsters" beings coexist is officially open for business! —Horror? Not at all. With the right job assignments, every ghost and monster can be a model corporate worker!

World-Building & Core Concept: A terrifying new game has taken over the world, and humanity has been forced to play. Mysterious forces have invaded, trapping players in a deadly survival game where they must face terrifying ghosts, unravel twisted rules, and risk death at every turn. One wrong move, and it’s game over. The Protagonist's Special Ability: Luca awakens a unique power called "Temptation of the Dead," which boosts his natural charm with ghosts, making them inexplicably drawn to him. This ability flips the traditional horror game on its head. Instead of feeling hunted, Luca begins to develop bizarre, often absurd interactions with the very creatures meant to kill him. Main Plot & Character Dynamics: As Luca's special ability makes him the center of attention for a host of creepy, otherworldly beings, his journey takes a strange turn: A seductive ghost nurse, eager for his help with an "IV," shows an unexpected vulnerability and creates a weird but endearing dynamic. A bloodthirsty vampire countess becomes fixated on Luca’s blood, turning her thirst into a strange form of flirtation. A skinning ghost relentlessly demands he help her complete the “perfect human skin,” leading to hilariously awkward situations. Other ghosts, like a ghost bride and zombie princess, also form twisted and complex relationships with him. Growth & Conflict: Luca evolves from a simple player into the "Doomed Knight," and his partnerships—and emotional entanglements—with ghosts drive the plot forward. In the early chapters, the ghost Lina risks everything to protect him, building a bond of trust. As the story progresses, deeper conflicts emerge, such as power struggles and mysteries tied to the game world’s origins, hinting at darker, more complex forces at play. Style & Highlights: This novel blends horror with comedy, using a light-hearted, humorous tone to defuse the tension of the typical horror game. Luca’s interactions with ghosts—who find him strangely irresistible—provide countless comedic moments. The vampire countess, with her elegance and bloodlust, offers a perfect example of the novel’s unique blend of humor and horror. The character lineup is diverse, with female ghosts featuring both Eastern and Western fantastical elements. For instance, the "Soul in the Painting" combines Chinese fantasy with Western vampire lore, offering a variety of “non-human romance” scenarios that fans of the genre will love. In Conclusion: Thriller: I Am the Death Knight! is a wild ride, full of dark humor, thrilling adventures, and unexpected twists. It’s perfect for fans of horror, romance, and everything in between, offering a fresh take on the genre that’s bound to keep you hooked!

O desanimado mágico Zong Jiu transmigrou para dentro de um livro. Ele foi parar em um rascunho de um romance de terror e fluxo infinito, tornando-se o figurante frágil que morria tragicamente na primeira rodada da competição. Esse rascunho era bem interessante: entre dezenas de milhares de pessoas, apenas cem podiam sobreviver, e o mais forte do grupo poderia até ganhar um bilhete de desejo universal. Se fosse outra pessoa, provavelmente ficaria apavorada. Mas ninguém esperava que Zong Jiu, além de não ter medo, ainda conseguisse seguir até o fim, exibindo seus truques descaradamente o tempo todo. Quando ele parava de brincar e sua vida parecia segura, acabava se metendo em uma rivalidade com o grande vilão do romance. Hoje você tenta me pegar, amanhã sou eu quem te pega. Um vai e vem bem divertido, heh. No fim, o que era apenas uma provocação acabou saindo do controle, e os dois realmente terminaram na cama. Olhando para o inimigo que o prensava contra o chão, Zong Jiu ergueu o olhar preguiçosamente. — Se vai me matar, então mata logo. Para de falar besteira. Mesmo em desvantagem, ele não demonstrava medo algum e ainda continuava a provocá-lo. O outro deslizou um dedo gelado por sua orelha, indo em direção à artéria, mas, de repente, parou. — Que pena. Mudei de ideia. Antes, ele ansiava por matar Zong Jiu com as próprias mãos. Todos os dias, se arrependia de não ter arrancado sua carne, de não ter quebrado seu pescoço. Mas agora que finalmente o tinha em suas mãos, um desejo ainda mais urgente crescia dentro dele como ervas daninhas. Mais do que vencer ou perder, ele queria vê-lo chorando e ofegante, com os olhos vermelhos, implorando por misericórdia.
