He feigned madness for eighteen years, all for the power of a god.

From the moment Bai Ye transmigrated, a strange torrent of information embedded itself in his mind—and his eyes began to perceive a world no one else could see. While those around him went about their ordinary lives, he looked upon a living hellscape: human heads arranged on dining tables, chunks of raw meat crammed inside wardrobes, and grotesque monsters oozing pus and blood through the streets. Branded a lunatic from his earliest days in the orphanage, he was treated like a plague to be avoided—"Stay away from him, or you'll catch his madness." For eighteen long years, Bai Ye endured isolation, mockery, and fear, with no way to make anyone believe what he witnessed. Then, on his eighteenth birthday, everything changed. The world tore away its disguise before his eyes, exposing the hideous, terrifying truth that had always lurked beneath the surface. In that instant, Bai Ye finally understood—he had never been the insane one. It was the world itself that was mad.
