The moment Shang Nan graduated from university, he was pulled into a system called the Saving Monsters System.

Every world contained monsters like these: they hid among humans, perhaps as students, perhaps as actors. Without exception, they were stunningly beautiful, and without exception, they had tragic, miserable lives—or childhoods.

So they despised humans. They could go berserk at any moment, wreaking chaos and destruction on the world they inhabited.

Shang Nan's mission was to make these monsters experience human love and beauty.

In the first world, Shang Nan's beautiful mother was frantically stabbing needles into a Paper Effigy she held in her hands.

"Step outside and get hit by a car!"

"You deserve to die just like your mother!"

"Stole what's mine—deserve to die!"

With every curse, the beautiful mother drove another needle into the Paper Effigy.

Yet the Paper Effigy in her hands kept its lips curved upward in a smile—a smile gentle and serene.

The System notified him that the mission target was outside the door. Shang Nan went downstairs and opened the front door—

Standing at the entrance was a slender, thin-framed boy, smiling at Shang Nan.

Shang Nan froze.

Because the person before him looked exactly like the Paper Effigy in his mother's hands.

Shang Nan's salvation mission hit a snag—

Because the monsters didn't seem to need much saving. Instead, they began sending Shang Nan courtship signals:

The Paper Effigy cut a string of little hearts from its own body and gave them to Shang Nan.

The nightmare creature invaded Shang Nan's dreams while he slept, weaving romantic dreamscapes for him.

The octopus extended its tentacles to curl around Shang Nan's ankle.

Shang Nan: "?"

System: Ooh, it's performing a mating display.

"....."

More than salvation, this was a gentle, compassion-filled taming.
