Summary of the Witch, I'm really not the Deep Sea Ancient God!
And guess what? Chen Qi popped right into existence there. He landed with this rare power called "Affinity with the Abyss," which somehow caught the eye of these deep-sea weirdoes – ancient entities who'd seen enough to realize he wasn't human anymore; they saw him as kin and kin only, not people.
He had all their crazy gifts but somehow still kept his own heart beating like a normal person's. With sheer guts and determination, Chen Qi aimed high: become the biggest Hunter this screwed-up world had ever seen. He faced freaky eldritch horrors head-on, using dodgy blades and fighting with unwavering belief.
Eventually, *Dove Times*, that big online thing everyone reads, plastered a headline on their site like it was a crime scene: **“A deep-sea abomination posing as human—tentacled tyrant of the Witch Sea! A manipulative fiend with royal ambitions and sinister ties to the Fifth Dynasty’s fall!”**
Pure rubbish!
Yeah, okay, maybe he *did* have tentacles. Maybe he messed with witches' minds, commanded some seriously creepy abyssal beasts, demanded tolls from nearby kingdoms, or even sang doomsday serenades alongside sea serpents.
But honestly? None of that makes him an eldritch godspawn! He's just a dude trying to survive as the best damn Hunter around. So he stood there atop the wreckage – you know, the floating hulk of a navy fleet he'd just torn apart – and calmly set things straight:
"Yeah," he said, maybe with a hint of weary confidence that felt real human. "I'm just a man... doing my job as a Hunter."
