Conquer the world, young man!

[Anime Crossover] Conquer the World, Young Man! Author: Lamb Who Loves to Eat Meat

Congratulations, host, for activating the system and being given a great mission. Proceed into the unknown world! Su Liang is just an ordinary citizen, with no bad habits other than being a bit of a homebody.

And having never done anything particularly remarkable in his life, even the usually gentle boy couldn't help but swear in this situation: "What the hell is going on?!" Young man chosen by the great Tom Sue, strive to conquer the world!

Su Liang: System, I have a question. It says I should conquer the world, but the mission it issued has nothing to do with conquering the world! System: Host's rights are insufficient to access.

Su Liang: This can't be! What about human rights?! I'd rather conquer the world than get involved with these people! System: This is all the will of the great Tom Sue. As long as you conquer these people, you can naturally conquer the world.

Su Liang: What kind of twisted theory is this?! All this talk of a Mary Sue god is just for show, isn't it?! Su Liang has become a character in an anime he watched called "K," a cannon fodder character named Totsuka Tatara who dies right at the beginning. And this world... why is it so strange? A mix of various anime, completely illogical!

Chapter 1001 The Young Man Who Saved People

A laptop on the bed reflected a slightly pale face. The screen was playing a newly released anime from a certain island nation. Only when the ending theme started did the man sitting in front of the computer look up. His hair was a little messy, and his features were delicate, but his current tired appearance gave him an indescribable air of decadence.

"Sigh... I didn't expect Zun to die in the end..." Su Liang rubbed his slightly red eyes and sniffed. "Really, the official website said it was a happy ending, is this really a good ending?"

A rumbling sound interrupted Su Liang's mutterings. He glanced at the time on his computer; it was already past 2 PM. He hadn't even had breakfast or lunch yet, no wonder his stomach was protesting. He slowly got out of bed, grabbed his coat and pants from the edge of the bed, and dragged himself out of bed in his slippers to find something to eat.

Opening the refrigerator, Su Liang found only one cup of strawberry milk left. He opened it and gulped it down without even noticing how cold it was. He licked the milk stains from his lips, smacked his lips, and muttered softly, "Ah, ah, I'm still so hungry. How come there's not a single food left at home? Looks like I'll have to go out and buy some more."

Su Liang walked listlessly into the room, rummaged through his wallet, and found only a few crumpled bills inside. With no other option, he pulled out his bank card and stuffed it into his pocket, intending to check how much money was left. Although Su Liang was a homebody, he was still a sunny and handsome young man whenever he went out. As for how he supported himself, his job was indeed different from that of the average office worker.

Su Liang makes a living with his voice; he's a radio announcer, but only for a small radio program. His work hours are usually short and in the evenings. He also takes on some online voice-over work occasionally, but Su Liang's voice is always used to voice characters who are gentle and healing.

Unfortunately, Su Liang sometimes wished he could voice a cool, handsome character, but his naturally soft voice was a problem. However, many girls online liked his voice and always asked him to voice strange lines, such as, "Ah, it hurts, please don't do that..." or "I... um... that's enough..." The girls seemed to get really excited listening to him, and he wasn't good at refusing requests. But if saying a few words could make the girls happy, then it was fine.

Su Liang's parents were a very loving couple who frequently traveled around the world, claiming it was for their honeymoon—though they'd clearly gone on countless honeymoons. Thanks to these somewhat irresponsible parents, Su Liang's self-reliance skills had been thoroughly honed; he was quite adept at cooking, cleaning, and laundry. A week ago, his parents said they were coming home, but while they were traveling in Moscow, they suddenly discovered his mother was pregnant. This time, her morning sickness was quite severe, so his father immediately called home, saying they would stay in Moscow for a while until his mother felt better.

Su Liang wasn't bothered; after all, he'd been living alone for so long and was used to it. Stepping outside, he saw the bright sunshine and a smile crept onto his face; his mood improved. Come to think of it, living alone was quite easy for him.

Su Liang strolled leisurely across the street. The ATMs at the bank across the street were open 24 hours a day, making it very convenient for him to withdraw money. There were also several supermarkets on the same street, where he usually replenished his food supplies. Su Liang's neighborhood wasn't in a bustling area and was usually quite quiet, but it had a pleasant environment, which he quite liked. But today was different. Su Liang looked around; there were many more cars on the road, and quite a few pedestrians walking along the roadside. This was a rare sight of bustling activity.

Su Liang didn't dislike the street, which suddenly seemed so vibrant. Strangely enough, Su Liang seemed to blend in well in any environment, had many friends, and got along with everyone. He looked around and suddenly noticed a very cute girl on the roadside. The girl had pigtails, a big smile on her apple-shaped face, and was holding a large Pleasant Goat balloon. Su Liang's eyes lit up immediately. A loli! An absolutely adorable little loli!

Su Liang was filled with all sorts of tender feelings at this moment. He couldn't help it; to him, little lolis were simply adorable goddesses! Looking at the little loli's cute appearance, Su Liang felt an urge to take good care of her. To be honest, if he weren't a man, he would feel like he was overflowing with maternal instincts.

Just as he was staring at the little girl, a sudden gust of wind blew by. Su Liang squinted, and when he opened his eyes, the little girl on the roadside had tears in her eyes and was reaching for a balloon that had been blown away by the wind. Su Liang frowned, only then noticing that there was no adult with the little girl. The child was still on the road, and no one was watching her!

Without thinking twice, Su Liang immediately ran over, quickly grabbed the little girl's hand, and hurriedly said, "Don't go grab the balloon, we're still on the street. Where are your family?"

The little girl turned around and looked at Su Liang, her big black eyes wide open. She opened her mouth, about to say something, when Su Liang immediately felt a force behind him, pushing the little girl aside. His own body, however, was unable to control itself and flew forward, spinning several times in the air.

His entire chest ached terribly, a tightness in his throat caused him to spit out bright red blood, and the moment he hit the ground, excruciating pain shot through his bones. Su Liang gritted his teeth, his vision blurred, and he couldn't move. He could vaguely hear many sounds around him—the sounds of pedestrians and vehicles. Without a doubt, he was being watched...

"Oh dear, why did this young man rush into the road? Look how badly he fell!"

"Driver, why aren't you calling the police and an ambulance right now?!"

"Hey, this young man is really good-looking, how come he's so unlucky?"

"I saw this young man rush out just now to save this little girl on the roadside. He's such a good person."

"Waaah... Big brother, are you alright?" The little girl's voice trembled and was almost inaudible.

Su Liang felt extremely dizzy. Before losing consciousness, he couldn't help but wonder if he had been given the "friend zone" treatment. But he was glad the little girl was alright. He didn't want to die, and the car crash was really painful. He didn't want to die!

It seemed like only a moment had passed, yet it also felt like an eternity. When Su Liang woke up, he felt incredibly light, as if he had no weight at all. Su Liang looked at his transparent palm; he was indeed light enough to have become a ghost! Before he could even complain, he felt a suction force, and everything went black as he passed out.

Su Liang's consciousness remained hazy, but even in that hazy state, he understood: he was dead, truly dead. In the instant he became a ghost, he saw his own body lying on the road. The ambulance arrived, but it was too late to save him. His current state was strange; even in his dazed state, he still possessed his own consciousness and thoughts, unaware of what was happening. Logically, since he died saving someone, he should be able to go to heaven...

Just as Su Liang was in a daze, lost in thought, a sharp pain shot through his mind. Come to think of it… he'd had this pain so many times today! But after the pain subsided, a memory that wasn't his own appeared in his mind. He pieced together that memory, seeing a child abandoned in a park by his biological parents at the age of three. Luckily, a passerby took him to an orphanage, and he was quickly adopted. The child's adoptive parents didn't have a good relationship; the adoptive father was a compulsive gambler, and the adoptive mother left home because she couldn't tolerate her husband's gambling addiction. The child was then raised by his adoptive father. Although he was raised, he rarely saw his adoptive father, as the father was a gambler and irresponsible, often disappearing. The child's home was practically bare, and they often went hungry.

Su Liang watched the child's life unfold, up until the child reached adolescence, around fourteen years old. Due to malnutrition, the child was shorter and thinner than his peers. Su Liang couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy. Although the child's parents weren't irresponsible either, compared to the child in his memory, his life was relatively comfortable. Just as Su Liang finished processing his memories, a cold, mechanical voice suddenly echoed in his mind:

[Congratulations, host, on activating the system! Congratulations, host, on being chosen by the great Tom Sue and entrusted with a great mission!]

[System binding in progress... Soul binding complete]

The system automatically completed the process in the new dimension; dimension information received successfully.

[Perform character scanning, character generation, and host character confirmation]

"What's going on?" Su Liang was really confused. In this day and age, is it that even the dead can't rest in peace? And what's with this host system? Does he think this is a game? Su Liang felt that he would be doing himself a disservice if he didn't complain.

[Host, there's no need to worry. The great god Tom Sue has already decreed that you will be given a chance to be reborn.]

It seemed he could communicate with the so-called system in his mind? With Su Liang's excellent adaptability, he immediately asked in his mind, "What kind of 'Mary Sue' god is this? How do I get reborn?" He thought for a moment, then added, "They can't just let me be reborn for nothing, right? Are there any conditions?"

[As expected of the person chosen by the great Tom Sue god, the host is indeed very perceptive.]

[Rebirth comes with conditions: the host must fulfill the great god's requirements and conquer the world.]

Even though the system spoke coldly, Su Liang could still sense a sense of worship in its words, a worship of that so-called "Mary Sue god"... And what's with this "chosen by the god" nonsense? Did it think he was some kind of child chosen by God? And those conditions for conquering the world—weren't they a bit too childish? Su Liang felt that if he agreed to these world-conquering demands, his future would be a nightmare!

Chapter 2002 The Neighbor's Young Man

Perhaps Su Liang had been silent for a while, because the system spoke in his mind again.

[Host, think about it, if you agree to this condition, you can have a new life.]

Furthermore, if the host performs well, they can also receive many rewards from this system.

Su Liang was indeed somewhat tempted. After all, he had personally witnessed his own mangled corpse after being hit by a car. He was still so young, with so many things he wanted to try but hadn't yet. Moreover, he had never even had a girlfriend, and to die like this was truly unacceptable! However, even after being persuaded by the system, Su Liang remained remarkably calm, slowly saying, "System, since you've given me a second chance at life, can't you let me return to my original body?"

[The host's original body was completely dead, and the fact that the host could be reborn is already a blessing from the great god Tom Sue.]

[If the host does not agree, they will face annihilation.]

The cold, mechanical voice made Su Liang snort, and then he said, "Annihilate? I think the Tom Sue god you mentioned has already prepared a body for me to be reborn, and even my memories have been given to me. To easily erase me would be a waste of effort."

[Since the host understands the great master's expectations of the host, then work hard and conquer the world!]

Su Liang had no choice but to compromise with this childish goal and agreed, "Okay, since you've given me a second life, I'll naturally try my best to live on. But now it's time for me to 'wake up'."

[Host's soul has successfully linked with the character. Host opens eyes; a new world is unfolding before you.]

Su Liang discovered that he could now hear subtle changes in the system's tone from its cold, impersonal voice. He clearly felt the tone rise when the system uttered its last sentence.

Su Liang felt that his soul was no longer light and airy; it seemed to have taken on a physical form. He slowly opened his eyes, but his body was clearly lacking in strength, and his stomach was empty. He stretched out his hand and looked at it; it was the hand of a young boy, just like in his memory. He touched his stomach and sat up from the hard bed he had been lying on.

My gaze swept across the room's furnishings; they were quite monotonous and simple. Besides the hard bed, there was only a desk and a chair, and the walls were all white with no decorations. The blankets on the bed were also thin, but fortunately, the weather wasn't too cold. Looking out the window, the trees were green but not lush, so it seemed to be spring.

Putting on his single-layer shoes, Su Liang decided to first thoroughly explore his current residence. Leaving his small room, the outer hall wasn't large either, containing a master bedroom, a bathroom, and a rarely used kitchen. He assumed the master bedroom was where his irresponsible adoptive father would occasionally stay when he returned home. He opened the unlocked door and peeked inside; the room was somewhat dilapidated, and there wasn't anything particularly noteworthy. Then, he went into the bathroom. He remembered there was a mirror there, and he wanted to get a good look at himself.

However, upon seeing his reflection in the mirror, Su Liang couldn't help but frown in distress. The person in the mirror was a boy with short blond hair and eyes of the same color, possessing delicate and adorable features. Su Liang's expression immediately turned serious. He hadn't expected that the memories he had received would lead him to become such a person...

A row of information was displayed before him, about how he became the owner of this body.

Name: Totsuka Tatara

Sex: Male

Age: 14 years old

Race: human

Title: None

Overall attribute rating: F (Strength: F, Endurance: G, Agility: F, Spirit: B, Luck: EX)

Ability: Affectionate aura (Note: People around you will get along well with you)

Su Liang's brows furrowed even more. For someone like him who was a bit of a homebody, anime was an indispensable part of his life. And the person he had become was none other than a cannon fodder character who died right after appearing in an anime called "K," which he had just finished watching before the incident! He never expected that the memory he had gained would be Totsuka Tatara's childhood memories. Su Liang had only watched the anime and hadn't read the original work, so he never imagined that the smiling young man in the anime would have such a childhood.

Regardless, this body is now his, and he has officially taken over as Totsuka Tatara! However, what left him speechless was how low the body's attribute values ​​were! He immediately called out to the system in his mind, "System, even if it's some kind of Mary Sue god who wants me to conquer the world, at least give me a BOSS role, not cannon fodder!"

[Host, although your basic attribute values ​​are a bit low, your luck value is off the charts.]

Furthermore, the host can improve basic attribute values ​​and overall evaluation by completing tasks and exercising.

[The host is still just a young boy, with a lot of room for improvement!]

Enough already... The boy, now known as Totsuka Tatara, strangely felt that this cold, impersonal system was trying to be cute... But with such a high luck stat, it's no wonder he was chosen by a powerful being, right? He couldn't help but start criticizing himself now!

Having embarked on a new life, Toshitsuka needed to plan carefully to avoid becoming cannon fodder in the future. He needed to improve his abilities. As for his former, rather irresponsible parents, he was fortunate to have a child; otherwise, he would have been quite worried. As for his adoptive parents in this world, he didn't really care. Having been raised freely, he was used to this kind of life.

But as Totsuka Tatara, he also needed to address his hunger. The living room had the usual amenities: a TV, a refrigerator, a small sofa with a coffee table in front, and a dining table squeezed into the middle. Totsuka opened the refrigerator. Although it wasn't very full, thankfully there were some vegetables. He also found half a bag of rice next to the refrigerator. With rice and vegetables, it seemed he wouldn't starve for the time being.

After selecting a few vegetables and rinsing the rice, having all the necessary kitchen utensils, Totsuka skillfully chopped the vegetables, lit the stove, and began cooking. Totsuka's cooking skills were quite good; soon the aroma of the dishes wafted out, and the rice was almost ready in a few minutes. She placed the dishes on the table, and Totsuka couldn't help but smile, thinking to herself, "It seems my abilities haven't diminished anywhere."

But just then, a knock came at the door, a loud 'knock knock knock' that Totsuka couldn't ignore even if she wanted to. However, in her memory, Totsuka Tatara hadn't interacted with anyone at this time. The system notification also sounded at that moment.

[World fusion complete, host's plane has been merged, host's identity in the plane is complete]

[Main Quest for this Dimension: Conquer the World, Completion: 0/100]

[Side Quest 1 Begins: Try to get along well with your neighbors, young man! Completion (0/10) Completion Reward: Unlock System Shop Failure Penalty: To be determined]

So the person knocking on the door is the quest NPC, the so-called neighbor? What does the system mean by talking about worlds, planes, and fusion? But since the quest has already been triggered, there's no reason not to accept it. Having accepted the quest in his mind, Totsuka walked to the door and opened it.

Standing at the door was a handsome young man with short orange hair and brown eyes that were now sparkling. Apart from his somewhat longing expression, his demeanor was quite elegant and his overall demeanor was quite refined.

Totsuka looked at the boy who was much taller than him, and a line of information appeared in front of him.

Name: Taro Yamada

Sex: Male

Age: 17 years old

Race: human

Overall Attributes: E-grade

Ability: Can hear the sound of coins falling to the ground within a radius of 100 meters.

Totsuka's lips twitched involuntarily. The ability of the person in front of him was too amazing. However, seeing the boy's expectant eyes, Totsuka still opened his mouth and politely asked, "Yamada-kun, is there something you need?"

The boy named Yamada Taro immediately smiled, but his eyes couldn't help but glance at the dishes on the table. "I didn't expect Totsuka-kun to be home alone. It looks like Totsuka-kun is about to have a meal?"

Seeing Yamada Taro's expression, Totsuka immediately had a sudden inspiration. Could this guy have taken a liking to his cooking? However, the system's mission was for him to build good relationships with his neighbors, so he naturally went along with it and smiled at Yamada Taro, "Yamada-kun, haven't you eaten yet? If you don't mind, come in and eat with me. I cooked quite a lot of rice, and I can't finish it all by myself."

Upon hearing Totsuka's words, Yamada Taro's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but smile. "Totsuka-kun, do you mind? If possible, could we add a few more people?"

"Huh?" Totsuka was a little puzzled. Did he have a few more neighbors? But there was no need to think about it at the moment. He nodded and said, "It's okay, just don't complain about how small the house is."

Upon hearing this, Yamada Taro's smile widened even more, and he nodded to Totsuka, saying, "Then I'll trouble you. May I call you Tatara?"

“Of course.” Totsuka smiled as he looked at the task completion rate displayed on the system task interface (1/10), and showed even more sincerity to the person in front of him, “I can also call Yamada-kun Taro.”

Taro Yamada nodded happily. After exchanging pleasantries with Totsuka, he immediately ran next door and opened the door. Totsuka could still hear Taro Yamada's energetic voice calling out to his younger siblings.
