MTL - It’s Not Easy Being a Master - Chapter 46 Old things

Insane. Traitor. Terrorist.

Kurokami Haruto, a 16-year-old high school student, lives an ordinary life with his older sister Kurokami Satsuki—a beautiful, gentle nurse who’s… a little too devoted to her little brother.Haruto always dismissed rumors about “Awakened Ones”—people who suddenly gained supernatural powers—as nothing more than internet nonsense. Until one day, after fighting with scoundrels to defend a strange girl, he woke up to a system interface flashing before his eyes:> 《 SYSTEM: “Chosen of the Abyss” Activated 》> • Main Skill: [Moonlight Blade Manifestation] - Summon up to three spectral swords.> • Main skill: [Abyssal Devour] – Absorbs energy from the moon, converting it into personal strengths.> • Hidden Skill (Rare): [Yandere EXP Farm] – Whenever a yandere develops feelings for him, all main skills gain double experience.> • System Service: “Scanning for yanderes within 10 miles… Detected: 1 target:Kurokami Satsuki.”Haruto: “…What is this?!

them. That is, until his life deemed his playthrough unfair and gave him a red card. Poison was his family's best friend, as everyone had at least tasted it once, not twice because they never could.Death was never on his calendar, neither was an offer for a divine gig. Enter the Deity of Stories, a celestial being with a fetish for plot twists, who offers Min Jae a deal he can't refuse: become her divine cameraman.No, not the kind with a lens, but one who records the tales of mortals. In return, he gets a second shot at life, in a world where his dearly departed parents are alive and well, ready to dote on him from birth.Reborn as Judge (because “Min Jae 2.0” sounded too dull), he quickly realizes this new life is no gift. This steampunk utopia, filled with airships, clockwork gadgets, and an alarming lack of Wi-Fi, thrives on manipulation. But who needs the internet when you have a divine camera and the sharp mind to control it all?Judge isn’t just here to record stories; he’s here to write them, casting himself as the mastermind behind every twist and turn. Armed with his divine powers, he navigates complex schemes, power-hungry nobles, and ruthless industrialists, all while keeping his ultimate goal hidden: to ascend to godhood and rewrite his own fate.Of course, he generally makes a glorious mess of things, all while trying to keep his dear parents blissfully unaware of his less-than-angelic schemes. But as the stakes rise and the Deity of Stories watches his every move, Judge must tread carefully. Can he manipulate his way to the top, or will he become just another character in someone else’s plot twist?---Just a quick disclaimer: The book steers clear of any unwanted adult stuff. However, it does feature a potentially disturbing amount of violence—enough to make you wonder about the author's mental health.So proceed with caution—and maybe a shield!
