《Steal The Male Lead》6.1 Till Even Time Ends
Advertisement
Fei Qianchi opened his eyes, gasping a breath out.
[Host, you have entered your sixth world. In this world, I will be unable to help you anymore as the levels have gotten too high for me to accompany you. That being said, you will have to rely on yourself and the memories of the past body. You will still get a reminder for the percentage of the love meter, but that will be it.]
Fei Qianchi was a bit confused, but he also knew that ahead of time because of Fei Shang's reminder from before.
(I understand, Fei Shang. Please stay safe.)
[I will be fine, Host, thank you for your words. Goodbye, Host, I hope that everything goes smoothly in this world too.)
With that, Fei Qianchi heard a dinging sound in his head and knew that Fei Shang had really left. He wondered how things were progressing in Fei Shang's world. Fei Shang has been busy and gone for most of the time even in the last world too.
Just as he was thinking this, a string of information passed into Fei Qianchi's mind.
This world was a world where vampires existed in a country similar to China but not. Though existing, the vampires and humans were still very against one another. Vampires killed humans, using them as a food source while humans had their own vampire hunters to kill the vampires.
The main character was a human, Su Heliang. Su Heliang was a normal student attending a normal college. He had decent grades, nothing too spectacular. He had a normal household, not a soppy sad life story. But this wouldn't be a mission if his normal life was not interrupted.
One day, while Su Heliang was on his way back from his part-time job after school, he finds a vampire, Wen Zhuhei, the Male Lead, in an alley bleeding to death.
Like all main characters, even though Su Heliang was wary, he still saved and took Wen Zhuhei back to his small apartment and healed him. When Wen Zhuhei awoken, he nearly attacked Su Heliang but upon realizing that Su Heliang had saved him, he stopped himself.
Like how a lot of stories unfold, Su Heliang explains himself to Wen Zhuhei, telling the vampire to live at his home until he heals.
Wen Zhuhei, with a high level of suspicion, agreed as he was too injured to move around freely. They spent roughly two weeks together as they slowly fell in love with each, even though Fei Qianchi didn't understand how.
But, a conflict has to arise. Su Heliang's friend, Qi Wuliao, who Su Heliang thought was ordinary, was actually a vampire hunter. To make matters worse, he was the same vampire hunter who had tried to kill Wen Zhuhei. To make matters even more worse, Qi Wuliao loved Su Heliang. He was the friend who secretly loved his friend, because some stories always had them, the man who the main character thought was a friend but was someone who loved them instead.

So, Qi Wuliao tricked Su Heliang into feeding a poison, only poisonous to vampires, to Wen Zhuhei. Wen Zhuhei is left on the verge of life and death after consuming the poison and Su Heliang is left with heartbreak realizing that he had fell for Qi Wuliao's trick. He was also very sad that his friend had betrayed and lied to him all this time.
Su Heliang seeks out a man who Wen Zhuhei had always talked about, one of the vampire lords, Chen Xueyi.
Su Heliang was able to get in contact with Chen Xueyi somehow. He begged Chen Xueyi to help Wen Zhuhei, to which Chen Xueyi merely laughed and refused.
But, the main character always has a card up their sleeve, even though it seemed weird.
Su Heliang had an old relic from his grandfather that he offered to Chen Xueyi. When Chen Xueyi looked over it, he realized it was a vampiric artifact to strengthen their bodies. Chen Xueyi agreeed to the deal and healed Wen Zhuhei.
Su Heliang was so relieved with Wen Zhuhei awakening, he couldn't hide his love for the man. He confessed his feelings and Wen Zhuhei also admitted his feelings too.
Together side by side, they killed Qi Wuliao and any vampire hunters who interfered in their lives. Also, Su Heliang became a vampire after finishing college so they lived for a very long time. A war came up later, but they survived it with Wen Zhuhei becoming a vampire lord.
Fei Qianchi, who had read this information, was left speechless. What kind of world was this? The information seemed so fake, it was almost like a writer who just threw their story together without caring for their mistakes and leaving loopholes all over the place.
He didn't even understand how Su Heliang and Wen Zhuhei fell in love. He didn't even get how Su Heliang just happened to have a vampiric artifact lying in his home. And how did Qi Wuliao live so long before Su Heliang realized his threat and then they killed him?
In simple words, this world seemed cliche. Especially with the friend who was not a friend but someone who secretly loved the main character.
And Su Heliang just seemed like an annoying character overall, must be because he was a white lotus (usually used to refer to someone very pure and innocent).
Fei Qianchi had a feeling that he was going to hate Su Heliang.
In fact, the world seemed so weird that Fei Qianchi rubbed his head in pain. He sighed very heavily as he calmed himself.
Then, he took in the memories of the past soul of his body.
The body he resided in this time was Chen Shujin, Chen Xueyi's older brother. Chen Shujin was considered the second oldest vampire alive and was the strongest vampire lord amongst the four vampire lords. Though he wasn't the oldest, he was the strongest with the most people in his clan. In a way, he was the leader among the vampire lords.

Chen Shujin was a relatively cunning person, though quiet in nature, he lurked behind the scenes. He was very powerful, having his knowledge built up for thousands of years. Chen Shujin was a major reason why the vampires were able to fight against the humans and the vampire hunters, having sacrificed himself to kill many vampire hunters during a major clash between the vampires and humans five hundred years ago.
Since then, having exhaust his power, Chen Shujin retreated into a deep slumber in a major vampire's secret valley.
Chen Shujin was a great leader and was one of the better vampire lords compared to Chen Xueyi and the other two vampire lords, Ren Shifei, the oldest vampire lord and the only female vampire among them, and Ti Mianzhong, the youngest vampire lord and often called the most devious of them.
Chen Shujin and Chen Xueyi could be said to be close in terms of their relationship but after years of slumber, Chen Xueyi gradually lost hope that his brother would awaken. That being said, Chen Xueyi began taking over the power, hoping to make sure all vampires stay loyal to his brother and himself. Chen Xueyi also gradually began hunting down vampire hunters and killing them.
Chen Shujin was not evil but he was not kind either. He ruled amongst the vampires, using his power and his status to fight against any who threatened and wanted to make a mess of the vampire's government.
Chen Shujin was nearly five thousand years old, existing long before the humans had begun their empire and slowly killing the earth. A witness to the human's struggle, Chen Shujin turned many humans into vampires, especially the humans who wished for revenge. Those who wanted revenge, he gave them the power to do so. This way, they could kill those who had wronged them.
This didn't make Chen Shujin a kind person, but it resulted in many of those vampires joining his clan and promising to protect him.
Throughout those five thousand years he had lived, Chen Shujin had never had a lover nor did he have anyone close to him other than Chen Xueyi. Chen Shujin and Chen Xueyi were 18 years old when they climbed their way up and took over as the first two vampire lords. Gradually, Ran Shifei and Ti Mianzhong also expanded their powers and became the other two vampire lords, making a total of four vampire lords.
During Chen Shujin's long slumber, Su Heliang and Wen Zhuhei had gotten together. Even after his awakening from his long slumber, Chen Shujin's body was wounded beyond recovery. He compromised and gave his power to Chen Xueyi, stepping down from his role as a vampire lord.
Not long after this, another war would come between the humans and the vampires. It was a war that shook the whole world as more humans voluntarily turned to vampires.
Chen Shujin would sacrifice himself to save the vampires, yet again, and later died in the war.
Chen Xueyi, not expecting that his brother would die before his very eyes, was filled with anger and nearly killed all humans in the war but was stopped by Wen Zhuhei and Su Heliang. Chen Xueyi was stopped because Su Heliang empathized with the humans. Because of this, Chen Xueyi was filled with anger and nearly killed Wen Zhuhei.
Chen Xueyi was not weak, though not as strong as Chen Shujin, his strength was not to trifle with for he was even more merciless than Chen Shujin. Before killing Wen Zhuhei though, Chen Xueyi stopped himself in his fit of anger. He left, bringing Chen Shujin's body with him and burying his brother's body.
Wen Zhuhei would later become the next vampire lord with Su Heliang by his side.
Fei Qianchi read over the information in silence, making note of some important details. Chen Shujin's character was rather hard to say, but it merely meant that he didn't have much to fake. His relationship with Chen Xueyi was close but also not to overly close. Chen Shujin didn't have a lot of people he trusted even though he had a lot of people loyal to him.
Fei Qianchi didn't know much about Chen Shujin's life but Fei Shang had left some notes for him. Even though Fei Shang had said that he wouldn't be able to monitor him during this world, Fei Shang had already left some notes for him so Fei Qianchi didn't worry.
Fei Qianchi took a deep breath as his eyes glossed over. First things first, he had to get to Wen Zhuhei before that man meets Su Heliang, else war really will rage.
Fei Qianchi's eyes flickered as he pushed whatever was blocking him into the air.
He looked around.
Fei Qianchi was now Chen Shujin...

"Senior brother, wake up! It's me, your junior sister! What are you doing!?"
"Master! Master! Senior brother has gone out of control."
"Master, we have to stop fifth junior brother before things get out of hand. His Qi is unstable and he's been possessed by demonic energy. If this goes on for any longer, we may just lose him."
"You are my fifth disciple, the one who I had the most expectations for. What is it that has caused your Qi to go berserk like this? All these years, you've been a role model for your junior sister. You led the Fushui sect into greater glory. Tell me, Qianchi, why have you become like this?"
"Master! No, no, no, please, Master! Wake up!"
"Fei Qianchi, how could you?! Possessed or not, how could you have killed our master? How could you just kill the man who practically raised you, the man who taught you everything he knew? How could you betray him like that?!"
"Senior brother, I hope that when you awaken and realize what you've done, I hope that you won't blame yourself. As your junior sister, I will never resent you for killing me..."
"Fei Qianchi, you've killed everyone... Is this still not enough?"

The Fracture
It was a normal day for the inhabitants of ERT-5901, more commonly known by the populace as Earth. A beautiful planet with lush resources and fertile land, well at one point anyways. Children were born, the elderly died, and Man was as corrupt as ever. But hey, what can you do about that? Can’t change human nature… But that's not the point. Basically the planet was peaceful, for the most part. Certainly they were better off than the species on FTL-3470… We don’t talk about them. Better to leave that book unopened. Anyways, that was all until January 5th of the year 2025. When the sky broke. Fractured. Stunning ocean blue cracks were spotted in the sky all over the planet. A spiders web of cracks and crevices littered the blue skies, tearing all that global peace to shreds. All while Wyatt Walker, a sad example of a human being, was black out drunk in a bar somewhere in LA. This is a post-apocalyptic, portal isekai, high fantasy kind of story set on our very own green Earth! The world has fractured, broken. The inhabitants of ERT-5901 are in for quite the quick and dramatic change in their way of life. Murder, theft, and death have become the norm. Survival of the fittest to the extreme. If you can’t keep up, then good luck playing the game. Hello, Kaiser here! I am the author of this lovely story and I would just like to put a few disclaimers down here. First, English is, in fact, my first language. This by no means I will have perfect grammar and there are bound to be spelling mistakes (please forgive me) and places where I accidentally put plot holes. If you find anything, I would appreciate it if you could let me know so I can fix / change it. I also welcome any constructive criticism or opinions you might have about the story (doesn’t always mean I will change something). Second, I am by no means a professional writer here. Just a confused student who wanted to write something. So, uh, here's my story? Third, if you can’t handle any of the following I recommend you find a different story as I will by no means change any of these topics. [Gore, Profanity, Twisted themes, Dark scenes, and Death] If you’re a sensitive person or a queasy person I would highly recommend a different story. Fourth, I would like to write with freedom so I will by no means be lenient with my writing. I intend to write without mercy. Characters will die, bad things will happen, blood will be spilled, and humans will continue to be humans. I would like to write things as realistically as possible while still having that dash of fantasy. Not everything will be all dark and gloom, there will be happy and funny moments mixed! (Hopefully, not a lot of edge) Enjoy! ッ
