Hello everyone, my name is Ling Zhen, male, eighteen years old this year, one meter eighty tall (actually one meter seventy), an handsome man who possesses maturity, reliability, steadiness, humor, handsomeness, intelligence, and power all in one (not really).
Just now, I was leisurely lying in bed reading a unique Genshin Impact novel I had just found. Unlike the usual protagonists who could destroy everything and everyone in an instant, the protagonist in this story grew slowly through their own efforts, which I found appealing... Okay, I admit a small part of the reason was because I enjoyed watching them bond.
As I was engrossed in reading, a rift suddenly tore open beside me?!
"And then I was brought here... Hmm... Why is the teleportation point in the sky, hey?! Someone save me! I'm going to die, die, die!!!"
Seeing the forest gradually coming into view, Ling Zhen fearfully closed his eyes and fell like a watermelon splattered on the ground... Well, actually, he got caught on a thick tree branch.
"Hmm?"
Ling Zhen waited for a long time, but didn't feel himself dying. So he cautiously opened his eyes.
"Is this... a branch? Did I get saved?"
After confirming he was truly unharmed, Ling Zhen couldn't help but laugh.
"Hahaha~ I didn't die even falling from the sky, I truly am the protagonist... Ah?!"
Just as he was speaking with gusto, the branch behind him cooperatively broke, causing him to fall to the ground.
"Ouch ouch ouch... Oh, my old back..."
Ling Zhen painfully clutched his back and observed his surroundings.
"This looks like Teyvat, why did I transmigrate here? Wait... if I transmigrated, then where's my system? Hello? Hello?"
Ling Zhen fumbled for a long time without finding his system, and slumped to the ground in dejection.
"Sigh... Honestly, transmigrating without even a system, I'm more miserable than Ying Bao..."
As Ling Zhen was muttering to himself, a voice suddenly came from not far away.
"Hey~ You, get away from there quickly!"
"Hmm? Is that a girl's voice?!"
Ling Zhen's spirits immediately lifted. He quickly turned his head and saw a little loli standing on a tree not far from him.
"Ahem!"
Ling Zhen stood up, brushed the dust off his clothes, and walked over with big strides.
"Hey~ Hello, Miss. My surname is Ling, my given name is Zhen. You can call me Brother Ling Zhen~"
Seeing that the person below didn't understand her, the loli quickly spoke again.
"Brother Ling Zhen, run quickly, there's a wild boar here!"
Hearing the loli's words, Ling Zhen chuckled, flicked his hair, and said confidently.
"Hmph... Don't worry, Miss, a mere wild boar, watch me easily cut it down!"
On the other side of the tree, the wild boar, which had been enthusiastically rooting at the tree, seemed to hear Ling Zhen's words. It ran out from behind the tree and stared intently at him, ready to attack at any moment.
"Holy cow! Brother, Happy New Year! Little brother wishes you a good year!"
Ling Zhen bowed to the wild boar, then immediately turned around and ran away at the fastest speed he had ever run.
The wild boar was enraged by Ling Zhen's actions. It leaped up and charged at Ling Zhen.
As Ling Zhen was fleeing at full speed, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his backside, and then he fell backward, rolling several times on the ground, looking utterly pathetic.
"Ouch... my butt..."
"You, you, you wait, I'll save you right now!"
Seeing this, the little loli on the tree immediately spoke in a panic. Then she quickly climbed down and picked up some stones, throwing them at the wild boar.
"Hey! Come here! I... I'm going to eat you!"
Although the damage wasn't significant, the insult was extremely potent. It immediately attracted the wild boar's attention, causing it to turn and charge at her.
Seeing the wild boar charging at her, the little loli immediately wanted to climb back up the tree. To her surprise, as she turned back, she tripped over a root and fell to the ground.
"Ow! (≧﹏≦)"
"Little sister?! Holy crap! My reputation throughout my life, how can I let a little girl sacrifice herself to save me!"
Ling Zhen struggled to stand up, wanting to draw the wild boar's attention back. Just as he was about to speak, he realized it was too late.
"No!"
Seeing the wild boar nearing her, the little loli fearfully closed her eyes.
"Bang!"
The imagined scene of her being knocked flying did not happen. When she opened her eyes, she saw a woman inexplicably appear before her, blocking the attack.
The wild boar, realizing its attack had failed, immediately retreated to charge again. Seeing this, the girl rushed forward, using her katana to furiously attack the wild boar's limbs.
"Eat this stone!"
Just as the situation was at a stalemate, Ling Zhen suddenly appeared behind the wild boar and threw a large rock he had lifted with both hands onto it.
With this blow, the wild boar let out a painful wail. The girl seized the opportunity and stabbed it directly with her sword, killing it.
"Phew... How was that? My surprise attack tactic was amazing, right~"
Ling Zhen panted heavily and said to the girl beside him. Lifting that large rock earlier almost cost him half his life.
The girl looked at the man beside her and said softly, "Thank you..."
Then she moved to the side of the little loli she had just protected.
"Are you okay?"
"I'm fine, I'm fine. Thank you for saving me. What's your name, Miss?" The little loli stood up, dusted herself off, and asked.
"Hmm... Just call me Zi Chen. And you?"
"I'm Bai (^～^)"
"Bai?"
What a strange name...
Seeing that the two of them were ignoring him, Ling Zhen said speechlessly.
"Hey, hey, hey~ I saved you too, didn't I? Why aren't you chatting with me? To tell you the truth, I'm the protagonist of this world. After all, I transmigrated here~"
"Ah?! I'm so sorry, I forgot to thank you." Hearing Ling Zhen's words, Bai immediately said in a panic.
Zhu Zi Chen's eyes lit up, and she stared at him, asking.
"You transmigrated here too?"
"Of course~ Someone like me... Huh? Did you just say you also... Σ(|||▽|||)"
"Yes, I transmigrated here too."
Bai heard their conversation and covered her mouth in surprise.
"Wow?! Me too!"
This... If they are both transmigrators, then what am I? That cute little loli clearly has the protagonist's treatment, but my strength is inferior to that girl who looks tough...
Ling Zhen thought to himself, watching them, then recalled his recent series of misfortunes...
"Damn! Could it be that I'm just a supporting character?!"
