[BL] The System Runs on Magic

༺❘✦ Ryo thought moderating online fan drama about Llewellyn — the world's most famous hero — was the worst part of his job... ...Then the System decided online arguments count as combat experience, and sent him straight into battle as Llewellyn's partner! His role? Magical crisis management, wrangling unstable Elemental forces, and helping tackle whatever magic is currently warping reality — all while keeping the world's most powerful hero alive. Easy, right? Except that now he's neck-deep in Dungeons and Distorted Realms — and just a little too fixated on Llewellyn's mastery in battle. And everything else. It would be fine if the System's matchmaking algorithms didn't keep pushing them closer. ━━━✦❘༻༺❘✦━━━ What you’ll find here: BL | Magic | System | Magical Apocalypse Character-driven | Feral Partnership | Emotionally repressed chaos (Slow Burn-ish + Mutual Attraction/Pining) | Elemental Magic | Banter | Combat | System mechanics | Slice of life downtime | VR Games | The apocalypse is already happening, and the internet is not handling it well.

The future empress who would dominate the world was still a helpless orphaned brat, tucked under Chen Kuang’s arm as he fled. The revered "Benevolent Immortal" faced his trolley problem and was forever burdened with an inescapable heart demon. The undying demonic sovereign was just a timid little maid serving a courtesan.

Chat Group: Swapping Bodies with the Bad-Ending Herta from the Start

“Got isekai’d because some ‘Jailbro ghost-meme’ shoved itself in my face? No problem—watch me speedrun my second playthrough!” Having just finished collecting every Persona mask, Bai Qian discovers he’s been added to a chat group—and to make things even worse, he’s swapped bodies with Bad-Ending Herta. Bai Qian is all set to follow the old, reliable routine: use spoilers to trade for resources. But he quickly realizes the group members aren’t quite what he imagined. Kiana: “Sirin, next move you defend—I’ll attack!” Toyokawa Sakiko: “Is this funny to you? Can someone tell me why I’ve become the embodiment of the Lord of Cinder? Where’s the Phantom Thieves crew you promised?!” Talulah: “From the skies over Ursus to the farthest edge of Terra—if I can’t save it from your failure… then let Terra burn.” Herta: “Before you say all that, can you at least pair up Laogushi and Machine-Head into a set of star-crossed sufferers?” Melina: “Here, I cast aside my dignity.” … “That’s not how a chat group works! You’re supposed to chat with me first, raise my affection, and trigger special events at specific locations—only then do you get to see my special CG!” Many days later, when Bai Qian sees the notification that the group has already finished building a basement, he’s stricken with grief. “What on earth is our chat group going to turn into?!”
