The greatest protagonist of Chinese light novels.

I reincarnated expecting an epic story as you see in those Korean web novels, but I ended up being born after the world had been saved....by my dad.

I ended up being born to the strongest man in the universe. This has its upsides of course but it's not as good as everyone thinks.

After his fiancé died, the emperor went mad. As her substitute I was sent to his place to act like his new fiancé.
I was able to receive some love by following the dead thoroughly, yet abandoned when the dead returned to life.
When i died after trying so hard to be loved 5 times. I decided to give up.
"Its going to be different next time. I wont cling to them anymore"
Yet while trying to escape the emperor's grip.
"Is the place you are supposed to be not by my side?"
With a man who believed he would love me forever
"I would have been your grave if i had destroyed you."
The man she met on the road to her own destiny
The changing future, the revealed truth, and this tangled bond. Whats at the end?
Note****-This is translation for the novel called Save me from kakaopage, I'm not Korean or do i take Korean lessons so there WILL be a lot of mistakes, however i will do my best so that even if there are some stuff that doesn't make sense the story comes across fine

Lately I've been wondering when did all this start. Reading of web novels I mean.
I remember when I started to watch anime, around the time Kill La Kill just finished. From there I got into manga and webtoons. I then started reading japanese light novels because I couldn't wait for more anime/manga releases. From there I went to korean and chinese web novels. And I have branched further out with my reading interests since then.
Though I don't remember the first anime I watched, not do I remember the first manga and LN I read, but I do remember that my first korean WN was 'Everyone Else Is A Returnee' and the first chinese one was 'Revered Insanity'. Both of these works just resonated with me somehow.
So I'm still searching for novels that give me these feelings. Additionaly I'm also looking for the 'perfect' novel as well, a novel that just ticks all my boxes. I don't care if said novel would classify as a fan-fic or not. I have found some that come close, but non are 'perfect'.
I know I won't find it, but I still hope.
That's my ramblings for today.

Pov: James 

Every day it's so boring I get up in the morning go to work go home go to sleep , I wish something exciting would happen like a zombie apocalypse or just any thing that isn't normal like dungeons or those dungeon gates I often read about on certain Korean webnovels . But I never got why so many novels focused on the dungeon getting a body, it should be focused on the monsters and how the natives in a world reacts to the dungeon I've  always loved monsters or monster transformations . Well it's time to clock out and go home. I hated my job it's so tiring putting up new walls, renovating houses, painting walls, but today, today is special because today I got kill by a car and ended up in a weird black space , I can't even see my God damn hands that's how dark it is. Why does this always happens to me first I often get sick second a tree fell on my house a year ago , not to mention my brother wrecked my fucking car. The car I didn't really care about. .....

Okay WTF is that white light 

POV : GOD
(There's that bastard always cursing me) 
Hello James so glad your soul arrived here safe and sound. Now I know you have many questions but here's the problem , I owe the god of dungeons and monsters a favor and his world is in trouble here's his problem adventurer's can only level up by killing monsters in dungeons and in the wild but there aren't many strong monsters  and all creatures are needed to purify the energy of the world and dungeons help with purification of that energy, but adventurer's often destroy dungeons and sell the core so will you help my friend and I will grant you 3 wishes

/authors notes (so I'm thinking of making the dungeon like the gates in Korean webnovels)

This is a slice of life novel, so I will try my best to relate everything to you, my readers~
What is a Light Novel?
-A light novel is a style of Japanese young adult novel primarily targeting high school and middle school students. (Wikipedia). Yuki is a famous author in a Light Novel Site. She has published four novels in the first few chapters of the story.
What is a Mangaka?
Mangaka is the Japanese word for a manga artist. Outside Japan, manga usually refers to a Japanese comic book and mangaka refers to the author of the manga, who is usually Japanese. (Wikipedia). Nickson, a Korean teenager, is a mangaka, a Webtoon/Manwha artist, and he is currently studying Manhua works.
The novel involves the romantic relationship between Nickson and Yuki
Yuki is the main protagonist. But her role is more of the narrator. I am focusing the stories of the supporting characters. You could say that Yuki's life is perfect~
(I will further update this part)

"Let me colour your world with these words..."

Yuki Leigh, your average teenage girl, has a knack for writing stories. She goes to Japan, together with her best friend, Roxanne. They enrol themselves in the International Japanese School to chase their dreams. Leigh also becomes famous because of her works, making a title of her known as the Queen of Gores or The Lady in Blood. But nobody knows who exactly this “Yuki”-her pen name is since she never reveals her face in public.

Those quiet days instantly change when Yuki browses the internet and sees a manga adaptation of her light novel series under the artist name “Nick”, who she assumes is a student going to the same school, and she is right! She refuses anyone to adapt her story, given that these written texts hold something dear inside her heart.

It is the only source of happiness Yuki has when she feels alone inside her room.

Upon noticing the positive feedback of the manga, Yuki would let Nickson pass this chance only if he transfers a share of his earnings to poverty or charity. That is all Yuki wants to hear.

They sit next to each other and not uttering a single word despite being classmates inside the room. Everything is going swimmingly to the two, not until the student council elections show up. They want to claim the prize of “not attending any lecture in class” following their jobs as mangaka and author.

Yuki then meets Nickson’s relatives, who are not on good terms. She thinks that joining their affairs would make her and Nickson’s situation worse. But her emotions change when Yuki notices Nickson’s sudden shift of mood during examinations or in meetings. He is neglecting his work in the student council, grabbing the attention of the school and the two former student council officers. Eventually, she helps Nickson in her own way. Because of Yuki’s sudden interruption in his life, Nickson finally takes an interest in this light novel author. 

There are a lot of things going on as well! The three join a club, family problems, and relationship status they need to work out.

The club advisor, Benjamin Tsai, gives the author and the artist tips on creating masterpieces of their works. He also becomes their mentor when they feel stuck in a bottleneck. Benjamin is an avid fan of both Nickson and Yuki, so he knows everything about them, including their styles.

Along the way, they meet some friends and make a group together to prepare themselves for the university. If they want to pursue their passion, they need to do well for the upcoming entrance exams. Everything becomes serious and dull, considering they need to plan for their future jobs and roles. 

Yuki expresses her doubts about becoming a full-pledge light novel author, knowing that it will be a risky job for her to make money. Leigh admits she was lucky enough to win the competition before, but what will she do right now that she is losing her popularity as an author? 

This novel is a rollercoaster of happiness, sorrow, and other emotions from the characters. Every reader will unravel their stories one volume at a time, while the two, Yuki and Nickson, commit themselves as romantic couples soon. The story doesn’t need to be fast paced or slow since they will encounter problems and solve them one at a time. 
______________________________________________
I referenced the characters to the people I know. But keep in mind that I separate their lives and create fictional events on my own. I don’t have any opinions of what the character will do since the story explains everything in the present tense. All of them will have their characteristics, strengths and weaknesses. 

Huge thanks to these awesome people who are supporting this book! Especially to @Snowphira. She is the artist/illustrator of this novel. If you want to see Nickson’s illustrations, I will post them inside the first few chapters in the comment section!

Cheers, and have a wonderful life, everyone!

The screen flashed.

… This is human setting??

Chen Xiaolian’s mind was at a loss. He was suddenly visited by an immense sense of absurdity.

This is a game? A game?? A son of a bitch game?!

Having written numerous web novels and read numerous other web novels of various genres, the well-known Great God[1]novelist Chen Xiaolian immediately grasped onto the key factors.

Game? Transmigration? Infinite elementsgenre? Or another world?
Hmm? What is this?



Chen Xiaolian tapped it open; subsequently, a hexagonal frame appeared upon the screen.

In the central location of the frame was a flashing green dot.

Beside it were two yellow dots.

Chen Xiaolian considered it for a moment… Hmm, the green dot should be me while the yellow dots would represent the two females…

Eh?

There is also a red dot flashing non-stop. It seemed to be constantly moving?

Its speed is so fast!

At the same time, he heard a loud roar emitted from far away.

Chen Xiaolian’s mind lit up: The monster!

Wait… wait…

I am a little confused! I am a little confused!

I need to think about it in detail! Think…

Chen Xiaolian who was feeling muddled sat down.

The Korean loli sat up, running forward unsteadily. She produced a bottle of mineral water from who knows where, then unscrewed it with a great deal of exertion before handing it to Chen Xiaolian.

“… Thank you.”

Chen Xiaolian sighed. “What is your name?”

“Oppa, you actually know how to speak Korean!”

The little girl seemed very surprised.

“Err…” Chen Xiaolian was at a loss at how to explain it to her.

“My name is Kwan Ran Soo,” The little girl raised her head and said with a clear and tender voice. “Oppa, you can call me Soo Soo, my unnie always calls me that.”

“Soo Soo…” Chen Xiaolian smiled and pointed to himself. “I am Chen Xiao Lian.”

“Xiao Lan oppa.”

“It is Xiao Lian…”

“Xiong Lian oppa…” 练脸

“Xiao Lian (练) !!”

“Xiao Lian (脸) oppa…”[2]

“… Nevermind,” Chen Xiaolian gave up on this pointless conversation.

“Oppa, I am scared… where exactly are we? What is this place? And that thing, is it very, very bad?”

That thing… Chen Xiaolian helplessly clutched his head and pondered about the matter. “It is all right, this place is very safe.”

As a small child, there was a sense of trust and dependence toward elders in her. Hearing those words, a glimmer of comfort flashed through Soo Soo’s eyes. She then found a comfortable place that was close to Chen Xiaolian and leaned down onto the seat.

Takashimoto Shizuka stared blankly at the two of them.

The smooth communication between the two of them, in addition to the fluency of Korean words from the youngster’s mouth…

He actually knows Korean?

“Excuse me, you, you two?”

Shizuka could not resist opening her mouth.

“Err…” As expected, Chen Xiaolian found that he could understand the Japanese sentence.

“Please hold on for a while,” Chen Xiaolian waved his hand in a rather tired manner. “There seems to be some matters here, I need some tranquillity.”

“You can speak Japanese?”

“Hey, if we keep up with this pointless conversation, the readers will think the author is putting in filler words…”

…

Chen Xiaolian remained silent for over half an hour. After which, he got up and went to the entrance of the aircraft cabin and observed the area outside for a long time.

Roars from the monster could frequently be heard from deep inside the woods. Judging by the roars, he estimated the monster’s position and compared it with the red dot on the ‘radar’.

Chen Xiaolian was then able to confirm his speculation.

The red dot represents the monster.

Game? Setting?

Considering his identity as a writer, he had never experienced such a bizarre encounter… however, he had written about it before in his fantasy novels! Even if he had not written about it, he had still read about it!

Considering that, his mental fortitude and ability to accept his current situation should at least be higher compared to the normal person.

If this is a game set… firstly, ignore why something so absurd could happen. Solving the current problem takes precedence.

Game… If that is the case, there must be a quest!

Chen Xiaolian searched and found a frame titled [Instance Dungeon Quest] on the interface…

Open! Open it immediately!

Beginner’s Quest One: Kill or capture one War Beast, obtain the qualifications to enter Instance Dungeon.

Prompt, a known War Beast: ?

There is a question mark, open!

Instantly, a smaller picture of the earlier monster appeared in his sight.

Four-Eyed War Cat: B Class War Beast. Melee Type. Growth Quality: ???

Four-Eyed War Cat?

Chen Xiaolian’s face broke into an are you kidding meface[3]as he could not help but curse inwardly: Why not a Six-Eyed Flying Fish!

If this is a game… then the designer must be a real bastard!

…

The quest turned out to be that powerful monster.

But I… How am I supposed to fight it? A blow from its paws alone was enough to bring a tree down!

Considering my small physique…

Wait…

Chen Xiaolian who had experience playing numerous games immediately noticed something.

Beginner…

There should be equipment for beginners, right?

If this was a game, then they would never design a quest that had no possibility of being completed. That would only get the players killed!

There must be some other items that he had yet to discover!

After repeatedly checking several interfaces, including the Personal Settings, Chen Xiaolian exclaimed!

He jumped up from the floor.

Beginner’s Equipment Kit!!

Haha! I was looking for you!

Eh?

After opening it, he found a… steel orb?

Feeling a cold sensation in his hands, he lowered his head and saw that the steel orb had appeared upon his palms.

Activate!

Weng!

The steel orb suddenly transformed. That was…

A sword!

A “zi zi” sound similar to that of electric currents rang out. The steel orb within his hand had transformed into a metal handle, protruding from the handle was a beam of light…

At that moment in time, several words flashed through Chen Xiaolian’s mind:

Star Wars? Light sabre? Jedi Knight? The Force?

He did not even have the time to bother with the two stunned females behind him.

Chen Xiaolian tried waving this sword.

Chi!

The passenger seat beside him was directly cut into two! The cut was done in a neat manner and had left only a scorching smell!

“It is so sharp!”

Chen Xiaolian then had a sense of fear… Would I end up hurting myself?



Open!

One hundred points?

Under the Personal Settings interface, a ‘+’ sign appeared at the end of his personal attribute values.

Chen Xiaolian looked at the interface and pondered for a moment before making his decision.

What late stage growth… now is not the time for that kind of thoughts!

Let us not even talk about what instance dungeons or quests.

There is a monster wandering outside. What is imperative right now is to get rid of it; only then would we have the chance to escape!

Escape this place with our lives!

In that case, add them all into melee!

Endurancel! Physique! Agility!

Chen Xiaolian temporarily left Endurance alone. The hundred points were fairly split between Physique and Agility.

Soon, the points were all spent…

His Physique rose directly from D to C, his Agility rose from C to B.

I do not appear to be feeling any different? Is there nothing akin to a burning feeling or a skill empowerment feeling?

Chen Xiaolian tried extending his hands out, and punched out against the wall of the aircraft cabin …

Bang!

The aircraft cabin wall, made of complex materials was suddenly left with a deep imprint of a fist! A deep dent was left!

Success!

Chen Xiaolian became excited!

He touched his fists… no pain! He truly did not feel any pain!

A state of mind developed after many years of writing novels kicked into action.

Chen Xiaolian did not impulsively take out the sword and go look for the monster for PK[4]– what would happen if he died? Who knew if this ‘game’ have any resurrection mechanism?

Perhaps… there would only be one chance?

Regardless, he would not take such a risk with his own life.

He sat down near the aircraft cabin’s entrance and considered for a very long time…

Observing that the sun was slowly setting down, Chen Xiaolian decided that he could not wait any longer!

He began to get busy.

The two females watched in shock as Chen Xiaolian started dismantling the passenger seats within the plane.

One by one… he had suddenly transformed into a mighty person as some of the heavy seats that were linked together were ripped apart by him!

This scene that happened all of a sudden, caused the two females to become terrified. While Soo Soo was still able to maintain herself, Takashimoto Shizuka shrunk away in fear, regretting the fact that she does not have the ability to shrink herself into a corner – the youngster had suddenly become dangerous.

Chen Xiaolian did not give any explanation. He simply dragged the seats one after another and threw them into the open space outside the plane.

He carefully set up his own ‘battlefield’.

The monster’s strength was very strong. In addition, it also boasted a high degree of agility… by creating some obstacles, he could limit the strength of the monster and allow him to bring his strength into play.

Hearing a roar coming out from the outside forest, Chen Xiaolian ensured that he had done everything he could in his preparations.

Standing upon the entrance to the aircraft cabin, Chen Xiaolian turned around. Seeing the two females situated upon the corners, he walked over.

“You two, stay here. Do not ever come out… No matter what, do not come out!”

Looking at Soo Soo, the little loli, Chen Xiaolian checked his pockets and found a piece of chocolate. He crammed it into her hands and rubbed her lovely mushroom like hair.

“Be good, wait for me here, I will bring you home!”

Gripping tightly onto the ‘sword’ in his hand, Chen Xiaolian gritted his teeth and strode out of the aircraft cabin.

At his back, Soo Soo tightly gripped onto the chocolate as she stared with her big round eyes at Chen Xiaolian’s back.

“Oppa…”


We attend school, find love, work, buy a house, pay our housing loans, insert weird faces in WeChat, watch movies… do any of you find anything amiss? One day, a group of strange people entered this world, equipped in strange clothing and possessing extraordinary powers, cold-blooded killers! They call themselves [Players]. 

Wait! Wait! You people want to kill me? You say I am NPC (Non Playable Character)? Stop joking around! You crazy bastards! I will fight you to the death! I will survive!

NPC beating up Players! Original residents beating up Transmigrants!

My world, my rules! What makes you think you bastards can come over and boss us around?

Treading the path of the strongest saviour in history, one destined to be filled with excitement!

…

Chen Xiaolian: From today onwards, an organization whose sole purpose is to oppose those bastards is established! Our guild shall be named… Player Thwarting Alliance!

Guild Member: Leader, this name, if we are to say it out, I fear we will be beaten up…

*NOTE* : I WILL KEEP ON UPDATING THIS WITH MORE OTHER CHARACTERS AND NEXT CHAPTER I WILL BE MENTIONING THE TITLE OF THIS LIGHT NOVEL AND HOW THE ML & FL ENCOUNTER EACH OTHER, LATER YOU CAN SEARCH AND READ IT ON WEBNOVEL!! 

The name of this novel changed overtime:
1) The Overnight: Tale of a Summoner Fox Spirit
2) Overnight: A Summoner Fox Spirit Tale
However I thought of other name or what this novel would look like if it was Japanese to begin with. Since my inspiration is Japanese and Korean light novels.
So it would be:
Overnight: 七番目の北狐 (Nana-banme no Kitakitsune)
or
Overnight: 일곱번째 북부 여우 (ilgobbeonjjae bugbu yeou)
However, the Japanese version would make more sense as I'm having a play with words with 'Northern Fox' the species (Ezo red fox) and 'Northern Fox' as the fox pack within the novel.
So I don't know if I would change the name or not.
The 'Tale' in the title is a bit redundant. Of course it's a tale. Since it's a very light, not serious novel, (~) somewhat children friendly...
And the fact it a fox spirit that would turn be a summoner... it is teased from the very first chapter however I think a lot of potential reader are misled from the title and just drop it early because it fail to deliver what they are coming for (since it's really slow-paced)
So I think "Overnight: The Seventh Northern Fox" is more accurate as the title since it's what the novel immediately deliver:
The tale of a fox in a remote forest in a game-like fantasy world.
(Which would really later on become a full-fledged summoner worthy of a tale.)
Since I have about twelve faithful readers (according to Inkstone stats), I don't think anyone would be too much bothered by the change. However, I wanted to write about it beforehand, just in case.

I've been thinking about how to start this novel for about more than 30 minutes and another 30 minutes for thinking about the title of this novel but I couldn't even get a hint properly since there's a lot of difference from being a reader and a writer. I've been reading light novels, sci-fi film novels past many years and every time I read I think about writing my own novel for many years and here today I am starting my journey of writing my own novel. 

Ahh you guys might be thinking what is this bullshit and start with your main thing or the good part where you guys can enjoy or we will leave this site already so let's get on the main point. 

For a novel to be good or draw readers from the start a good Name is required but I couldn't think of a better name other name than me. Call me a narcissistic or whatever since I have already decided on the name for this. 
My name is or the name of the Mc of this novel is Manish. 
What kind of crappy name is that for a Mc anyway for I don't care about what you guys might be thinking about my name  just let me use my name to get a feel of a what it is to be like a Mc of your own novel. 
"Hahaha ! "
There goes my friend laughing about the ideas of me writing a light novel using Indian names. 
As you guys know 99% of the light novels are used with Korean, Japanese, Chinese, and a bit styilsh name from Eastern countries. 

Well the one laughing above who is one my best friend goes by a name Manoj.N(N-Narayanswami.) 
Again what kind of name is that which you won't even be able to pronounce properly and even my full name is Manish Singh Rajpurohit for short Manish is better for here. As you guys might not know but in our Indian culture we always use our last name going by the father name Or the village name Or our caste name. 

We've been trying to do something on our own since our 1st preuniversity as you guys know every one wants do something on their own and it's every man's dream to make lot's of money to enjoy their life with their friend's and family. 
But as you all know 99% out of 100% people just think of doing something and don't have any particular idea of what do to. 
As you would've already guessed what's this about and we were also among those in the category of the former not in the latter since I have been thinking atleast for three years and wasting my time. 


Year 2021 due to Covid I have stopped attending my 2nd year engineering and I have been lazing around without any care for more than 8-10 months since they passed me on every subject without any exams on my 2nd semester. 

"Ahem"Correction not lazing around but reading novels to get some inspiration since there is a chance my family members may read this novel at some point if some day this gets famous. 

Well getting to the point about the decision of the government making a declaration for passing the students except government board students of 10th board and 12th board anyways, I've never been this happy or excited in my life so much coz my attendance was less than 30% and I had never hoped to pass my 2nd sem and I was prepared to get debarred well thank the heavens no I mean thank our Indian government. 
Well there is a good reason for that too let's drop this topic since I don't wanna get emotional after giving the reason for this and let's continue since I am in a good flow of right now. 

It would be hard to believe for many of my friends since I have always been ranking top since my junior School to high school till 10th board and they have been dropping after 12th since the start of the engineering. 
Most of the people are always same as me when they are at a age between 6-16 since they are in their own familiar world . When people start setting foot in 11th then the real world starts and you guys will be like "Ahh this world is so **** up, ahem I mean messed up. "
"Sigh" brings back the memories of dirty jokes the world has been playing with us. 

Again at the topic of doing something to be a successful man in life, and one of the most asked questions about "what do you wanna do?" when I talk about the above topic especially my good friend Sourav and Md. Maaz (Md-Mohammed)who have been in touch with me since 11th to 1st year Electronic communication(E.C.) and been studying with me in the same college. 

Well not now since I have dropped 2nd year thinking I will continue next year due to some of my own personal reasons and if you guys are really curious or wanna know the reason pm or dm   me or drop a comment in the comment box I will be replying you guys personally is what you guys will be thinking since I don't even know if I will continue with this novel thingy or is this 1 day seriousness about what will we do in the future if we don't do anything right now or let's start with doing a little thing or two seriously so we will be diligent and work hard later or is this just a spurt of  hot young blood. 
Talking about the young blood forget it .Let's talk about this in the next chpt.
