Lin Fan, still seething from earlier events, sat under a withered tree beside his chicken. The moonlight cast shadows across his face as he clenched his fists dramatically.
"H? Hei Long... he has a cult of beautiful, devoted women… I have a chicken that ate a spirit worm and now farts Qi mist…"
The chicken belched.
Lin Fan leapt to his feet, eyes ablaze.
"If Hei Long can make a cult, then so can I! I'm the protagonist! I was born for this!"
Cue intense, totally unwarranted motivational music in his mind.
Step 1: A Name
He pulled out a stick and wrote into the dirt:
THE HEAVENLY GLORIOUS SECT OF THE TRUE PROTAGONIST, SAINT LIN FAN.
The chicken pecked the name until it only said:
"Saint Lin"
"…Good enough."
Step 2: Recruitment
Lin Fan grabbed an old scroll he found behind a trash bin and scribbled on it with charcoal:
"JOIN THE TRUE HEAVENLY SECT OF THE REAL MAIN CHARACTER!"
Below it, he added:
"Free dinner. Possibly enlightenment. Definitely not a scam."
