The male supporting character was actually myself.

A few months ago, my biggest wish was to become a big star, to achieve fame and fortune like the federal propaganda, and to bring my mother out into the world so that she could enjoy wealth and happiness.

But now, it's impossible forever...

Liars! All those advertisements, performances, and celebrities—they're all liars!

“She is furious.” The angel flapped its wings and leaned closer to look at the girl whose eyes were glistening with tears. A hint of pity appeared on its face as it looked up at the expressionless demon and asked in a soft voice, “Why don’t you grant her wish? The poor child is so sad and in pain, yet you turn a blind eye.”

Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow slightly. "Oh? If I fulfill her wish to slaughter all living beings, I can become a delicious meal for the angels to eat, right?"

"You will succumb to your thirst for power." The angel smiled beautifully and flew to his side, her white, glowing fingers gently stroking Jiang Chen's black wings with holy light. She whispered in his ear, "It won't be long before you become addicted to and unable to extricate yourself from the urge to kill. At that time..."

He reached back and lifted the other person's perfect, flawless face, a slight smile playing on his lips. "Let's make a bet and see who eats whom."

The angel clearly didn't understand his meaning, and covered his mouth with a laugh, saying, "You will never become stronger if you don't learn to take away; while I have been giving, so I am much stronger than you."

Keep going like this, and I won't eat you, and you won't be able to eat me either;

If you choose to become stronger, you might still have a chance to turn the tables.

"The devil is thinking about saving the world; the angel is inducing its destruction. Aren't we playing the roles backwards? Shouldn't angels be benevolent, flawless, and able to purify all evil?"

"Do you think this deformed world and despicable humans still need saving?" She tilted her head in astonishment as she looked at the demon in front of her, and said with certainty, "They are beyond saving."

Whether angel or demon, they all understand this principle.

Look, we descend to protect kind children, fulfill their wishes, and give them everything they desire.

But what were the results?

At first, their wishes were truly beautiful. They hoped the injured rabbit would recover quickly, the wilted flowers and plants would come back to life, the elderly would be healthy, and their families would be happy.

But soon those little guys were no longer satisfied. They wanted more snacks, more money, and prettier companions. They no longer cherished everything they had and instead became more and more greedy and wicked.

They want their rivals to die; they want their partners to devote themselves to them without them even realizing their infidelity; they want to get rid of old, useless elders to avoid being tied down...

In the end, they will want everything and will pay any price for it!

Human beings are insatiably greedy; they are beyond redemption.

If the angels who choose to protect do not strive to become stronger, they will only be able to perish alongside the lost beauty when those filthy human souls fall.

For the first time, the angel's smile vanished, and he said in a low, eerie voice, "Too many angels have perished because of the humans they protected. I haven't suffered that much yet, but I'm probably close. After all, he's already in his twenties and has ambitions..."

Will guardian angels die when humanity's finest qualities disappear?

"Didn't you say that angels are absolutely free? Since the one they protect has fallen, why don't you leave?"

“Because only the children chosen to be protected can see angels.” She sighed, looking helpless. “Even if they leave, they will only be temporarily spared from death, but other humans cannot see angels, and we cannot obtain energy by giving, so we will slowly die.”

Rather than die alone and powerless, it's better to give more and try your best.

Perhaps the energy gained can offset the negative effects, preventing them from perishing along with the good, and allowing them to choose what to give, selecting better wishes to fulfill and maintain balance. But as far as I know, very few angels are able to achieve a good beginning and a good end and attain an immortal soul.

Unexpectedly, even angels can be pitiful. While helping Qin Xiaoyao gather clues to pass the level, Jiang Chen asked, "Angels can also choose to be guided, right? As long as their good qualities don't disappear, you'll be safe."

"You've definitely never raised a child. Those human offspring are born evil."

If you don't believe me, observe carefully. It takes a lot of effort to teach them rules and maintain good character, but they seem to be able to cause trouble, swear, and do bad things without any instruction.

If you encounter an obedient and well-behaved child, they might be able to listen to some of what you say;

If they're unlucky, they might even find your nagging annoying and rebellious! I've been guiding him by giving, and so far the child hasn't gone astray, but the environment can corrupt him; who knows when he'll fall into depravity.

The little white cat listened to the CPU running at full speed for a while before it finally understood, "Angels are also quite pitiful, but if they want to live, they can't think about eating my host!"

Jiang Chen had a sudden inspiration. "I can see you, so why don't you just grant my wish?"

Angel: ゛(◎_◎;)

To satisfy, to fulfill the devil's desires?

Can this work?

“You need to give to gain power, but the condition is that you can only give to those who can see you and make wishes to you.” He said matter-of-factly, “I can see you too, and I also need the angels’ gifts, so why can’t we give to each other?”

Fluffy dumpling: o((⊙﹏⊙))o

You can even exploit bugs like this?!

The angel was clearly stunned, and after a long while, he stammered, "I...I haven't tried it, I don't know if it will work."

Moreover, at the beginning, only very small wishes can be fulfilled. There are still many restrictions. It needs to be specific and not too excessive...

"I want two strawberry ice cream cones," Jiang Chen said without hesitation.

She looked a little nervous. As angels and demons are incompatible and hostile species, it just didn't feel right to grant his wish now.

But if one could truly gain energy through giving, one wouldn't have to perish and die a tragic death...

"Ice cream cones? Okay, that's easy." The angel hurriedly wrapped herself in her pure white wings, then unfolded them, revealing two strawberry ice cream cones. She hesitated slightly before handing them over, "Ice cream cones made with angelic light, I don't know if they'll be good for you..."

Jiang Chen took it, then handed one back to her, asking, "Will fulfilling my wish increase your energy?"

The angel subconsciously checked his mana bar and, sure enough, it had increased by a tiny bit.

"It works! I can grant your wish!" She took the ice cream cone with great joy and took a bite. It was cool, sweet, and had a strong strawberry flavor.

“From now on, we’re partners.” Jiang Chen extended his right hand, and the other person gave a crisp high five. “Happy cooperation!”

Having successfully turned the all-powerful wishing machine against him, he was in a good mood and reminded her, "Qin Xiaoyao, stay away from them. Don't let them think you're easy to deal with. Yes, that's it. Put on a poker face that's always on guard."

"Although others can't see us, but..." The angel muttered to himself as he looked at the handsome demon, "It doesn't seem like it'll have a good impact. And... you have to try to stay true to yourself. Don't get greedy for killing to become stronger and get targeted and eaten by other angels."

Are there any other angels in this world?

Angel: o﹏o

Good question! But I don't know either...

"Logically, they should exist, but I've never seen them. After all, they are just memories and experiences inherited as energy increases. It's also possible that this world is too distorted and cruel, and no angel is willing to descend."

Seeing the people below busy at work, she simply sat on the tree trunk, eating an ice cream cone and grinning, "Hurry up and make a wish, I can give you more and better things!"

"Is it really meow?" The fluffy little creature jumped onto her shoulder, tilted its head, rubbed against her soft white feathers, and grinned mischievously. "Host, let her marry you and become your wife!"

Jiang Chen rolled his eyes at the little white cat, pointed downwards with a sigh, and said helplessly, "I have to help her complete her mission first. By the way, can your power revive the dead?"

"That's an incredibly big wish!" The angel looked troubled, thought carefully, and nodded, "It's possible, but there are many restrictions, and the person making the wish needs to have an extremely high level of connection with the other person to have any hope of success."

When you first form a bond, you can only make a maximum of two small wishes per day. Reaching the level of resurrecting someone requires a very long period of accumulation.

"As long as it works, take your time and don't rush."

He spread his wings and landed beside Qin Xiaoyao, giving her a warning in a low, devilish whisper.

So, when the group of six people were taking a break after searching for clues to the cemetery in the dark and misty woods, professional actor Zeng Hao took out a bottle of water from his backpack and handed it to them, saying, "You've worked hard. If it weren't for your help, I definitely would have gotten lost and never found my way back."

Qin Xiaoyao not only didn't take it, but took a step back, her face full of vigilance. "Thank you, no need, I have water in my backpack."

She moved to a spot a little further away from the others, took a bottle of water from her backpack, unscrewed it, and sipped it slowly.

"Waaaah... I have no water, I'm the only one who doesn't have any..." Sun Dieqi was dragged and pulled to the grove of trees. Her high heels had long since fallen off somewhere; her red miniskirt was also in a mess. Fortunately, Fang Fei's jacket could barely cover her up.

The effects of the medication wore off somewhat, but she was still dazed and confused from the shock and needed time to recover.

Seeing this, Fang Fei helped her open the backpack and was speechless. "Sister Sun, what's wrong with you..."

The bulging but not heavy backpack was switched by Jiang Chen—originally, the program team had arranged it for Qin Xiaoyao to solidify her image as a "hindrance" or "ignorant person," a fabricated label.

Inside were several sparkly and glamorous outfits; some expensive cosmetics; and various glittery headdresses "stolen" from the dressing room. Aside from these useless items, there wasn't even a bottle of water or a knife, leaving the teammates speechless and the audience indignant.

"Damn it, can't we just kick this piece of trash out of here who only screams and drags us down?"

"She's so quick to steal! The cosmetics are labeled 'For Use Only in the Dressing Room,' she's just taking advantage of the situation!"

"The staff who selected these actors should atone with their deaths; Sun Dieqi can't be redeemed!"

"I thought Qin Xiaoyao would be the most disgusting character in this show, but who would have thought that her character would be so reversed? Sun Dieqi is really disappointing."

"No wonder she's dressed like that; I guess her only asset is her figure..."

…………

The audience's opinion was overwhelmingly negative, and the game center couldn't even control the public opinion.

The back of game designer Qiao Yi's exquisite suit was soaked with sweat. He could imagine what the consequences would be if this mission failed. His Majesty would absolutely not tolerate the failure of the plan!

"Initiate the massacre plan, increase the difficulty!" After hesitating for a moment, seeing that the actors were about to complete the second scene's story in just a few minutes, he slammed his right fist on the table and decided to go all in.

The attempt to frame Qin Xiaoyao is likely to fail. Hopefully, the show's entertainment value will be high enough to garner audience approval, giving him some leverage. If the ratings reach a record high and he can win the race to become the most popular game designer, he shouldn't be quietly eliminated out of consideration for the audience…

Sun Dieqi's backpack on the runway caused her approval rating to plummet to almost zero. Zeng Hao sighed helplessly, took out a bottle of water from the backpack, and handed it to her, saying, "Have some water and calm down."

"I suggest you don't drink water casually." Qin Xiaoyao said in a cold tone, "Brother Hao, don't misunderstand, I didn't mean to target anyone. It's just... in the first three reality shows, all the mistakes I made were because I drank water given to me by other people, to the point that I don't remember those details now."

While it's important not to harbor malicious intent, it's always wise to be cautious about what you put in your mouth.

These words shocked not only the performers at the show, but also the audience who were immersed in the show.

"Really? Qin Xiaoyao was drugged?"

"Holy crap! This is breaking news! I need to do some digging and see what happened. If she was drugged and that's why she's acting this way, then we were wrongly accused before, weren't we?"

"Qin Xiaoyao is nobody! Who the hell would want to drug her? Stop trying to whitewash her!"

"But she really did an amazing job this time. There's really no reason for such an outstanding girl to kill a cat or set fires..."

…………

Chapter Nine: Zombies!

water?

These words were like a wake-up call. As the effects of the medicine wore off and she calmed down a bit, Sun Dieqi belatedly realized what was happening. Looking down at her disheveled appearance, she suddenly covered her face with her hands and cried out, "Water! I drank the water the makeup artist gave me!"

I... I didn't intend to dress like this!

And my backpack, it wasn't originally filled with these things, it wasn't!

Her hysterical, incoherent outburst of crying and wailing stunned everyone.

"No wonder! Anyone with a brain wouldn't make such a basic mistake. Sun Dieqi is a veteran actress! She must have been tricked!"

"After searching, I found that Qin Xiaoyao did have a scene where she was drinking water at a previous fashion show, and she started acting crazy shortly afterward."

"Sun Dieqi is finished. She exposed the show's secrets and is going to be silenced, right?"
