Anime Crossover: My Cheat Code is Myself Author: Ke Su Lu

Who in the family understands?

I was just walking down the street and did nothing, but I was forcibly transported to another world.

I've traversed ninety-nine worlds at the same time, and even encountered a useless system that's completely ineffective. It's really frustrating.

Fortunately, I'm quite capable.

They can share their abilities with each other.

Having traversed so many worlds, what does it matter if they're all just accessories?

Even a pair of underwear or a piece of toilet paper has its uses!

You can get rich by collecting garbage!

Besides, if you walk in the dark too often, you're bound to step in poop!

Since the system is useless, my cheat is myself!

Big shots like Xia Yan: So this is why you're not ambitious and just waiting to suck up to powerful figures? ×N

Xia Yan (Keychain): That's right, everyone is their own father. Dad, love me again!

Hentai Natsuhiko: You unfilial sons, it's time to show you who the real father is!

Chapter One: The Transformers of Destiny Rushed Towards Me

An island nation, Meiji 43 (1894).

An unknown village.

Forgive Xia Yan for his poor history studies; he couldn't determine his own year based on the era names of the island nation. As a college graduate, he couldn't even remember which year the Meiji Restoration started.

The other villagers knew nothing about it either.

The question is about the year Meiji 43. Last year was Meiji 42, and next year will be Meiji 44.

What is the Gregorian calendar? Is it edible?

The concept of the Common Era doesn't exist; being able to read and write already makes one a cultured person.

As for his exact location, there was no way to tell. This small, run-down village didn't even have a name, and the nearest town was so remote that even if he set off in the morning, he wouldn't be back until evening.

However, Xia Yan didn't have time to think about questions like "Where am I?" and "What time is it now?"

It was late autumn, and a light breeze was blowing at night.

Xia Yan was wearing only a thin shirt, and the small, dilapidated wooden house was drafty, so even inside, one could still feel a slight chill.

But the cool breeze blowing on his body was nothing compared to the chill in his heart.

Hiding under the bed, Xia Yan's view was mostly blocked by the bed board, and he could only see the blood spreading on the ground.

The oil lamp flame on the wall flickered, casting a swaying, terrifying shadow on the ground—a shadowy figure with two horns on its head.

The sounds of tearing and chewing kept coming from my ears, as if some ferocious beast was feeding.

The strong smell of blood made it hard to breathe, and the stench of entrails in the air made one feel nauseous.

But Xia Yan held back.

Forget about vomiting, he didn't even dare to breathe loudly anymore. He was even afraid that blinking too loudly would reveal his hiding place to the man-eating monster.

"The old folks in the village say ghosts eat people at night, and I thought they were just scaring kids, but you're actually doing it for real? Damn it, you're playing dirty tricks, aren't you?!"

"The problem is, I've been staying home perfectly fine, I haven't gone out at all!!"

"Why do all these unlucky things happen to me?!"

"Isn't this a bit unsportsmanlike?! Trying to trick and ambush a fourteen-year-old like me, is that okay? It's not okay! Absolutely not okay!!"

Xia Yan only dared to complain about these words in his heart.

After all, if he didn't try to distract himself with something, he was afraid his body would react with excessive fear and he would be dragged out and chewed up alive.

After all, islanders don't like to eat cooked food, and neither do island ghosts.

Xia Yan, full name - Ming Shenyue Xia Yan.

Of course, this is his name after he transmigrated; his original name was simply Xia Yan.

The orphanage director who found him gave him the name.

The old dean's surname was Xia, and he hoped that his son would become a person of both virtue and talent, so he named him Xia Yan.

I never expected that after finally making it big and becoming a small business owner, just as I was preparing to repay the old dean for raising me, I would suddenly be transported to a comfortable island nation.

Fortunately, he had purchased a large insurance policy before his death, and the beneficiary was the former hospital director.

His estate was also inherited by the orphanage, which was a way of repaying the old director for raising him.

"I hope that ghost eats less and gets out of there after it's full, so I can pretend nothing happened..."

Xia Yan was thinking despicable things.

Although he knew that the ghost was eating his parents' corpses, he felt no sadness at all.

He even felt a little amused if the other person finished eating and left quickly.

It's not because he's a time traveler that he's heartless and ungrateful.

In fact, Xia Yan, who was an orphan in his previous life, actually longed for a warm little home.

Unfortunately, my parents in this life are truly inhuman.

My father was a scoundrel; he was proficient in drinking, gambling, whoring, and smoking, and he would beat my mother and me together every now and then.

My mother is even worse than that scoundrel, my father. At least when he hits someone, it happens every now and then.

She's quite something; she takes her anger out on Xia Yan all the time. The first thing she does when she wakes up in the morning is give Xia Yan a big slap, with just the right amount of force to wake him up without hurting his brain.

It seems that all her unhappiness is caused by Xia Yan.

The fact that Xia Yan was able to live to the age of fourteen with all four limbs intact is already proof of his abilities in his previous life.

"Damn it, I should have just let myself be hit and killed by a dump truck back then!"

The thought that his current predicament stemmed entirely from a seemingly premeditated accident filled Xia Yan with rage.

He was simply walking on the crosswalk when, as he was crossing the zebra crossing, a dump truck suddenly appeared out of nowhere and ran a red light.

Although Xia Yan only had one foot on the zebra crossing and his whole body was still on the curb, the car seemed to have targeted him and actually drifted sideways towards him.

Damn it, if you're such a good driver, why are you driving a dump truck? Wouldn't it be better to be a race car driver?

Fortunately, Xia Yan was a regular gym-goer, and in a moment of crisis, he made a flying dive and a 360-degree somersault to get past the drifting dump truck.

Just as Xia Yan breathed a sigh of relief and celebrated his narrow escape, the car suddenly sprouted limbs like a Transformer and sped towards him again at 180 miles per hour.

The passersby around them all ignored this unbelievable scene.

Xia Yan didn't understand it, but he was deeply shocked.

In the instant he was hit by the dump truck, Xia Yan clearly saw the driver wearing sunglasses smiling and giving him a thumbs up.

It was a youthful smile, just like Teacher Kai's, with dazzling gleam on his large, white teeth.

It was as if it were saying, 'The higher-ups have decided that you will be the time traveler.'

Xia Yan really wanted to tell the other party to find someone else.

However, the driver gave no room for negotiation whatsoever, and directly punched Xia Yan into another world while driving the Transformer.

In response, Xia Yan immediately recited a line of poetry.

Sir!

Chapter Two: I hid much better than you did back then.

"Honestly, why am I suddenly thinking about those unpleasant things again? Now is not the time to think about such things!"

Xia Yan composed himself and ended the memory of the tragedy.

The eerie chewing sounds that had been echoing in the room had stopped at some point.

The surrounding environment was eerily quiet; the sound of the night wind passing through the cracks in the walls could be clearly heard, making the atmosphere even more eerie. The oil lamp on the wall was still flickering a dim, yellowish light.

"Have they already left?"

Xia Yan thought to himself.

According to the usual plot of horror movies, at this point, the protagonist should have breathed a sigh of relief and then slowly crawled out to see what was going on.

The man-eating monster should be hiding behind the protagonist, waiting for him to emerge so it can launch a surprise attack. After a struggle, the protagonist will escape at the last moment.

But only shark arms would do something like that!

"It's decided! I'll stay in this position and not move until dawn."

"No, just to be on the safe side, I will absolutely not leave this position even a fraction of an inch until the police or anyone else arrives!"

Although Xia Yan was shivering from the cold wind, he had no intention of moving at all.

"Generally speaking, since such non-natural creatures exist and legends about them exist in folklore, there should be people specifically responsible for handling such incidents!"

"Thanks to that scumbag couple, I've been working for three years to support myself and have even secretly saved some money. I'm not like a child who can't take care of himself when he's separated from his parents..."

Just as Xia Yan was mentally planning his future—
