Her dad's a demon. And she just wants to be ordinary. I batted at the curl of smoke drifting off the tip of my candle and tried not to sneeze.

New novel by Er Mu, author of 《Release That Witch》! The best fantasy online novel you absolutely can't miss in 2024! ------ Chaoyang had lived an unremarkable life for over twenty years, but then a sudden "awakening" disrupted his life—he awoke to become a demon from legend, sustained by wishing power.

The bad news was that most of the wishing power already had owners. The good news was that no one understood making wishes better than he did. At first, Chaoyang simply responded to prayers to survive, but as he grew in strength, he turned it into an industry. And the place where many wishes could be fulfilled came to be known as "Paradise".
