Chinese QT, mc hops from world to world, being a double agent. He either is a double agent working for the dark side, or a triple agent where there is 1 “reveal” that he has been giving secrets to the enemy, but the intel he is feeding is incorrect, or he is stealing more valuable information from the enemy. I think in one of the worlds he gets captured and tortured, and it is filmed? They inject him with a solution that heightens pain and torture him for hours, but he doesn’t spill any info. I think maybe everyone turns on him because they think he sold out to help the enemy, but then MC finds the video and reveals it to the public? And he becomes a hero because 1) he survived hours of torture and stood strong, and 2) he looked really hot while it happened. There was one world where he and MC were childhood friends/rivals under the same master. In a flashback, the master and MC agree that it is necessary for ML to do his hero work in the light, and MC to do spy work in the dark. MC agrees to have his reputation dragged through the mud and to go down in history as a traitor, because the greater good of their country depends on it. ML’s keep finding out and revealing that they have told the world, and he will die a hero, and MC laments because he is losing his system points because he isn’t following his role. Im not sure if everything I’ve written is from the same novel, with Chinese QT everything starts to blend together sometimes.
