I'm Really Not the Evil God's Lackey

Lin Jie, a traveler from another world, runs a quaint little bookstore where he offers solace to troubled souls through carefully chosen books. With genuine kindness, he guides his customers toward stories that mend broken spirits, occasionally slipping in recommendations for his own writings. Gradually, his patrons develop deep admiration for him, many returning with heartfelt gifts to express their gratitude. They rely on his expertise when picking books and eagerly spread word of his unassuming shop to others.

Over time, they affectionately bestow upon him titles like “The Dark God’s Right Hand,” “Herald of the Flesh and Blood Scriptures,” “Author of the Corpse-Eater’s Sacred Texts,” and “Keeper of the Celestial Flock.” Unbeknownst to Lin Jie, his humble bookstore becomes a place of whispered reverence, where ordinary shelves hold extraordinary secrets. His customers, touched by his warmth, see him as far more than a simple bookseller—though he remains blissfully unaware of the legends growing around him.

Each interaction strengthens their belief in his hidden wisdom, and the more he shares his love for literature, the deeper their devotion becomes. To them, his recommendations are more than just books—they’re life-changing revelations. Yet Lin Jie continues his days with quiet sincerity, never suspecting the extraordinary role he plays in their lives.
