Reborn in Tokyo, talentless and unremarkable, I only want to lie flat and live a carefree life—but alas, I'm broke.

Working a job? Absolutely not. I must find a way to live off someone else immediately. Since no mature and beautiful rich woman is willing to support me... then I’ll just find a future rich woman, raise her myself, boost her affection for me, and then monetize that affection into cash!

This is Kuroba Akira’s original philosophy of lying flat:

“Future Sugar Mama Investment and Training Theory.”

As long as I can control the rise and fall of affection levels, and maintain a delicate balance between the "boats" (ahem, girls)... then one day—

I’ll live off soft rice until I die!

Our motto is:

“Lie flat, give up, eat soft rice!”

Breaking news: The long-missing businessman and investor Kuroba Akira has finally been rescued. The main culprits were reportedly several female friends with whom he had ambiguous relationships since his student days.

Let’s take a look at the moment he was rescued:

“Why… Even after I asked you all for so much money, your affection levels didn’t drop… they went up?!”

Thanks to Mr. Kuroba Akira for sacrificing himself to prove two important truths:

1. The stock market of affection is utterly unpredictable.

2. Sooner or later, living off others will come at a price.

3. (Bonus) This novel is a harem—but be warned: the girls are twisted.

[PS: It is important to note that the protagonist was in love in the previous life, but Bibi Dong did not cheat on the protagonist. Even in the original novel, Bibi Dong did not have a relationship with Yu Xiaogang, right? ]

[Chasing husband to the crematorium + black-bellied + decisive killing + beauty]

Traveled through the Douluo Continent to become Bibi Dong's childhood sweetheart. Because of awakening the peerless martial spirit, the twelve-winged fallen angel martial spirit, he was adopted as an adopted son by the Pope of the Spirit Hall, Qian Xunji, and was named Qian Chengxiao.

Blessed by heaven, eternal Lingxiao.

The company of childhood sweethearts is ultimately not as good as the one who falls from the sky, or the plot kills.

Ten years of daily companionship and care are not as good as that of the rubbish who suddenly broke in.

Licking the dog, licking the dog, licking until there is nothing left in the end.

However, because of the appearance of that rubbish, the adoptive father Qian Xunji gave the title of Secret Chamber Douluo to Qian Chengxiao, who was his adopted son.

Although Bibi Dong gave birth to his daughter Qian Renxue for him, it was also because of this that Bibi Dong hated him all her life.

Qian Xunji died at the hands of Bibi Dong, and because of his daughter Qian Renxue and his guilt towards her, he eventually died at the hands of Tang San to save her.

When Qian Chengxiao was reborn and adopted by Qian Xunji, he realized how sad it was to be a dog licker.

Bibi Dong: Chengxiao, I was wrong, please come back.

Qian Chengxiao: The belated affection is even more worthless than grass.

Ian has transmigrated, but he isn’t panicking at all...

Why? Because there’s no point in panicking when you’ve landed in the world of Fairy Tail, where the danger level is set to MAX!

Seriously, how is one supposed to fight the final boss who is immune to magic? Better leave that overpowered mess to the protagonist...

As for Ian, all he wants in this lifetime is to lay low and live a carefree life in the Fairy Tail Guild.

That was the plan until the year X778, when a little crimson-haired rice dumpling knocked on his door.

From that moment, Ian unlocked a dream simulation ability.

Thus, Ian began jumping across countless timelines, saving tragedies from unfolding.

In one of his dreams, he traveled 400 years into the past and took down the general who had abandoned Irene. He also saved Gray’s family and Ur, and effortlessly wiped out Deliora in the process.

He reunited August with Mavis, and casually sent August undercover to the Western Continent.

For the longest time, Ian thought it was all just part of a dream.

Then Irene dropped the bombshell: “Yes, Erza is your daughter.”

Ian: “Huh?!”

Selene: “Ian, you need to own up to your actions.”

Ian: “Own up to what? It was all in a dream! Can’t I cut loose a little in my own dreams?”

Oreki was admitted to a highly educated high school and placed in Class A.

With his keen sense, he quickly understood what was different about this school.

Just when you feel troublesome, you wake up the system and you can get super power rewards by completing tasks.

Teleportation can allow him to go home and fall in love at any time, and transparency can eliminate his sense of existence.

This life seems good and very energy efficient.

Then I got telepathy.

Sakayanagi Yusu: This school is so boring, but Oreki-san is very interesting. You can [play] with him.

Horikita Suzune: Oreki, who doesn’t study at all, got higher scores than me. Sure enough, I didn’t work hard enough! I studied for 16 hours today.

Karuizawa Megumi: Houtarou, thank you for saving me when I was in junior high school. Please date me on the condition of marriage!

Kushida Kikyo (regret): Clothes can’t retain fingerprints at all, so I just gave them away for free? ! (angry)

"..."

So you usually act serious, but in the end you are thinking about this?
