->''I want to see you become god.'' - Du Ze to Xiu
--> -- '''Chapter 7.2'''
The Reader and Protagonist Definitely Have to Be in True Love or 读者和主角绝逼是真爱 is a Chinese danmei WebNovel written by Tui (颓), complete at 96 chapters.
Summary: Du Ze is a huge fan of the web novelist Yi Ye Zhi Qiu. Or, rather, he is a huge Troll who likes to flame the author in order to get attention. Thus, even though he loves Yi Ye Zhi Qiu's latest ongoing [[HaremGenre stallion novel]] "Mixed Blood", Du Ze writes a critical review of it complaining about exactly the things that he loves about the novel - the MartyStu main character, his AllLovingHero actions, and his BattleHarem.
Sadly for Du Ze, it seems the author took his criticism to heart. The formerly lighthearted tale of a cute harem master suddenly became super dark and edgy. The reader could only helplessly look on as the protagonist was abused and betrayed, finally embarking on the road to becoming completely evil. Everything was a mess! One day, while reading a HardCore [[YaoiGenre yaoi]] {{Doujinshi}}, Du Ze was [[TrappedinAnotherWorld unexpectedly transported into a different world]] where he encounters Xiu, the main character of "Mixed Blood."
Xiu, an extremely intelligent and talented human warrior-mage, had just been revealed to be a descendant of an evil Lich. This resulted in him being hunted down by the whole of human society, including all of his former friends. Du Ze arrives just in time to see that Xiu, in Lich form, dying of his wounds.
That is just the first few chapters of this epic fantasy novel that has been completely fan translated into English.
