Ling Yu loves Gu Qing, and everyone knows that her love is both cheap and foolish.
She treats herself like a stone under Gu Qing’s feet, moving wherever needed.
On graduation day, it rained heavily.
Ling Yu’s hands were frozen red, pitifully holding a hundred balloons, rushing into the auditorium.
In the crowd, Gu Qing appeared mature and alluring, her curves accentuated by the bachelor’s gown. She was surrounded by a group of boys and girls vying to confess their feelings to her.
Ling Yu called out to her: “Gu Qing…”
Gu Qing’s eyes were filled with disgust as she stared at her wet body, her tone laced with hidden anger: “Is this amusing? Ling Yu, I could never possibly like women.”
The auditorium was silent as a tomb; everyone thought Ling Yu would force a smile and shamelessly cling to Gu Qing.
However, no one heard it. In Ling Yu’s mind, the system prompt sounded: [Congratulations, host. The female supporting character’s plotline has been completed. Task reward: Natural Death.]

After Ling Yu completely disappeared from Gu Qing’s world.
One time at a bar, a friend asked Ling Yu, “If you liked a woman as cold and elegant as Gu Qing, would you find everyone else dull in comparison?”
“Liked?” Ling Yu casually swirled her wine glass, her tone nonchalant: “Having liked a stingy straight girl? I’ll let you know once I fall for her…”
That night, the fragmented, colorful lights of the bar danced across Ling Yu’s face. She was surrounded by admirers, living life to the fullest.
Gu Qing sat in the adjacent booth, clenching her fists tightly.

My name is Fu Li, a reborn being.
Before my rebirth, I survived the Third Honkai, only to perish in the endless stream of major Honkai events a year later.
Then, I was reborn, before the Third Honkai.
This time, I must be prepared to avoid another defeat.
Through a series of events, while I haven't escaped death, I have leveraged my intelligence advantage to reap a considerable reward.
In return, a wave of anti-entropic Titans, heavily armored drones, and armed soldiers descended upon me and my companions, chasing us to nowhere.
But I wasn't panicking at all. The Third Honkai Impact was imminent, and their offensive would crumble in an instant.
So I calmed down and waited patiently.
And then...
eh?
Glancing at the time on his watch, Fu Li looked at the usual azure sky, the usual Titan army, and Kiana, Bronya, and Mei, all wearing different expressions in the car.
—No? Buddy?
Where's the promised Third Honkai Impact!!!
Zhai Da is reborn into his small-town high school life in 2008 and awakens the [Life Equipment System].
Intense emotions, obsessions, and desires can imbue everyday objects. Zhai Da can then enchant these special items, refining them into powerful equipment for his own use. The best part is that this equipment can be continuously synthesized to increase its rarity, and he can even collect them to form complete [Sets].
Examples of his enchanted gear include:
[Old Man's TV]: Instead of getting addicted to the content, Zhai Da uses it to absorb study materials, becoming utterly engrossed in knowledge.
[Literary Girl's Pen]: Writing with it deepens memory. Seeing its power, Zhai Da can't help but say, "Girl, can I borrow your pen to copy my notes?"
Other equipment includes items like the [Lucky Coin], [Desire Lighter], and the [Magic Gift Set]. He also has artifacts like [Regretless Bugle Call], [Sage's Pen], and [Book of Knowledge (Mathematics)].
