Chapter 399: A Passerby And Contingent Worker (1/2)

Each novel world has its personalized style, with an intense spread of unique contents. Each world would always be relative to its author's behavior. Zhao Youyue was very well aware of this, as she had already gone through dozens of worlds.

Within ”Dog Days,” Zhao Youyue felt surrounded by a leisurely ambiance. Her whole body was held down by such an immense weight, that she had no desire to lift herself up.

She did not despise it. This lazy, harmonious world could serve as a vacation for her mind.

Adhering to her original plan; she took control of the pa.s.ser-by character ”Hua Xiaomao.” She set the character's behavior as an amicable, adorable young girl. What else would boost her popularity if not for textbook cat-like behavior?

The male protagonist never ever found out the reason of him morphing into a dog. Naturally, Zhao Youyue followed the same format here. Why is she turning into a cat? Who knows?

Such was the advantage of writing fiction. The author was literally the G.o.d of every fabricated phenomena, and held the keys to the logic behind it. If she morphed into a cat, so shall it be. No explanations were necessary. In the first place, how could the male protagonist morph into a dog?

The bizarreness of his shape-s.h.i.+fting was a clear indicator of this novel's energy level. Of course, this meant that there could be others out there, morphing into cute animals at random.

Zhao Youyue finished keying in the settings related to this young cat-morphing girl - ”Hua Xiaomao.” The completed vessel was ready for her to occupy.

Zhao Youyue, or rather, ”Hua Xiaomao” did not blatantly rush atop the stage. No matter the case, her actions in the novel world had to start off slow. Otherwise, sensitive authors would sense something amiss. This character was just a pa.s.serby, aren't I writing about her just a little too much? She's stealing the spotlight …

She could not risk being spotted. As long as she gave her best effort, readers would eventually take notice of her.

She had to move in like a ninja, since she was starting off as a pa.s.serby. Novels would most likely collapse if she went in guns blazing.

It had been a while since Zhao Youyue took control of a pa.s.serby character like Xu Jing and Hua Xiaomao. All of her recent characters had been known to their respective authors. She had more free will, without risk of arousing suspicion. The authors would only presume that they had entered some sort of 'zone.'

On the contrary, pa.s.serby characters were as good as ”dead.” That's right, they looked as healthy as horses, but it was their final play. After the one-time show, the puppeteer would cast aside their strings and leave them in the dark, never to be remembered again.

Such pa.s.serby characters were plentiful in web novels. For instance, a salesperson who took a slap from a protagonist in some pa.s.sing city. They would never show up for the second time.

As for those professional gangster cameos, they only served to elaborate on the bravery of male protagonist. They would generously hara.s.s the female protagonist, only allowing the male protagonist to express his stand in the face of injustice in hundreds of ways. A female protagonist earned her chance to be impressed, the hero earned his chance to save the beauty, those gangsters earned their opportunity to take a beating.

Nevertheless, the possibilities of such coincidences occurring in reality, were almost none. How could a lady find herself in the middle of some shady business involving some small-fry gangsters, the logic was nonexistent…
