5: Chapter 3: You’re disturbing my ga!
“Release , and I can give you unparalleled power.
I am a Quasi-God, just one step away from becoming an Ascender.
If it weren’t for the unique environnt of the ‘Promotion Ceremony,’ no one could stop , not even all the Secret Keepers in the city.”
“Heh, can that keep alive until next year?”
What about power?
Can it be eaten?
Don’t always think about fighting and killing; this is a civilized and harmonious society.
“….I can give you the wealth I’ve accumulated over a thousand years and make your life as luxurious as that of an emperor.”
“Haha, can that keep alive until next year?”
It’s attractive to enjoy life and then die, but that’s about it.
I’m just an ordinary otaku – how many coins does it take to play gas and watch cartoons?
Can having a bunch of maids dress up like sisters and play gas with make it better?…Well, it seems like it’s indeed worth a try.
Can I owe you and pay half a year later?”
“….I can teach you a love spell that will enchant won and give you the lover of your dreams.
No, I can directly enhance your charisma, making it impossible for mortal won to resist your charm!”
“Tsk, tsk, can that keep alive past next year?”
Ha, girls in the three-dinsional world?
Not interested…
It’s definitely not because I don’t want to drag others down.
“…..Lu Ping’an, stop with the half-year talk!
I’ll honestly tell you that the ‘Life Countdown’ is the price you pay for your Abnormal Ability, a curse you cast on yourself.
No one can save you, not even the great Mother of Life.
Choose a different condition – money, won, power, anything – just let go.
Otherwise, in half a year, when you die, I’ll break free.
You, as a mortal, must have people you care about – family, friends…”
“Tsk, tsk, can that keep you alive until next year?”
Thank you for the reminder!
I almost forgot.
“What do you an ‘you’?
Do you plan to take with you when you die?!
We have no grudges or grievances…”
As she spoke, Chris’ voice grew smaller and smaller.
In her confusion, it might have been true that they had no grudges or grievances, but with her threats, wouldn’t the enmity only grow?
“Stop making noise!
You’re disturbing my gaming!”
At this mont, Lu Ping’an was lying in his small room with the door locked.
His computer was downloading like crazy, and his TV was also playing gas.
He was extrely busy – on one side, the ga console and half a year’s worth of new gas; on another, classic ani and accumulated new episodes; and on yet another side, delicious food he had longed to eat but didn’t dare to.
The floor was already covered with empty cans from the “King of Impurity” soda.
With a fried chicken leg in one hand and ice cream in the other, his chin covered with grease, he would occasionally utter “delicious.”
How would a person who may die in half a year treat life?
He would face the cruel fate with a smile, seize every second to create a brilliant life, or…
“I give up, resign myself, can’t keep up!
If everything’s going to be over in half a year anyway, why not live a more relaxed life in the ti that’s left.”
Perhaps so heroes might still shine brilliantly despite facing death tomorrow, but clearly, Lu Ping’an is just an ordinary person.
Personality and enlightennt are shaped by experiences and mories.
In his previous life, Lu Ping’an was just a mortal – a salted fish that tried to jump but couldn’t escape the pond.
“This Abnormal Ability is aweso.
Even though it can’t save my life, it temporarily relieves from the pain and lets enjoy life.”
“Haha, I’m not giving up, I’m sitting here and racking up experience points!
How could I call it giving up?
I’m just hanging around and accumulating experience.”
So, Salted Fish Lu happily settled down to enjoy the remaining ti.
“So refreshing, ice-cold cola is so refreshing, wuwuwu, haven’t touched it in half a year…
By the way, Chris, there is sothing I need your help with.”
Suddenly, Lu Ping’an stopped and hesitated for a mont before asking.
“Mortal, what is your desire?
Power, wealth, I can give it all…”
Chris was imdiately overjoyed.
This was her first ti being “summoned” by her “master” – did she still have a chance?
“….
Speaking of which, it’s kind of embarrassing.
I do have a need.”
“Hehe, did you change your mind after all?
I’ve seen human greed and desires countless tis.
This is human nature and the foundation of civilized progress.
Tell , aside from the ‘half-year’ issue, I can fulfill your every wish!”
Upon hearing this, Lu Ping’an breathed a sigh of relief.
Having a “pocket grandfather” willing to negotiate was indeed nice.
He wondered if the other protagonist transmigrators encountered the sa predicant as himself.
“Great, my desire is quite simple, though perhaps a bit embarrassing.”
“Haha, I have seen all kinds of ugly human desires.
You have seen my ceremonies and my Secret Realms, right?
Behind the glorious human skin, lies the demons, ghosts, and monsters that are my greatest pleasure.
Co on, let see just how ugly and dirty your desires are deep within your heart!
Human beings, they are a treasure chest filled with desires and greed.
Let see what kind of ugly and dirty desires you conceal beneath your mortal exterior…”
Lu Ping’an took a deep breath, realizing this should not be let loose to harm others.
He made sure to rember to take her with him when leaving, but now, indeed, he needed her help to satisfy his growing need…
“…Um, I want to read so doujinshi.
Can you leave for a mont?”
“What?
Doujinshi?
What’s that?”
Chris looked utterly baffled – was this so kind of new mystery or fable?
“It’s a treasure of mankind, the tenth art of the new era, a crystallization of love and beauty created by artists at the risk of imprisonnt…
Alright, I can’t make up more.
I’ll just show you.”
With that, Lu Ping’an opened the computer screen, clicked on the downloading folder, and opened one subfolder after another…
“……Human!
%…&%*, you’re ssing with ,….”
A flood of angry emotions and chaotic characters filled his mind, and Lu Ping’an used his “master” authority to block it.
Then he really opened a .jpg file, and after so ti, the connection was quiet as if it were a calm sea – the other party had already hung up.
“Tsk, finally quieted down, going on about mortals and such, their desire for life, and still in the throes of ‘adolescent syndro.’ The most annoying thing is this forced binding.
There’s no mont of peace all day long…”
From a certain point of view, Chris-chan’s life has already ended.
As her Ascension Ceremony failed, she lost everything to a headwind.
However, since Lu Ping’an inherited her “world,” the Secret Realm, which was supposed to collapse due to losing its source, was stabilized by preserving her soul as a spirit stabilizer.
She beca a spiritual possession for Lu Ping’an…
his personal grandfather.
It’s just that the advice from this “portable grandfather” is clearly not well-intentioned.
“…
Go to hold a sacrifice ceremony, gather thousands of sacrificial items, and make the Mother Goddess happy enough to grant more life…
As if I’m an idiot.
And she claims she’s lived for hundreds of years, always just sleeping?”
Now, Lu Ping’an and Chris’s relationship is very delicate, in a certain sense, it can be described as “living and dying together.”
If Lu Ping’an reveals the existence of Chris to the outside world, he is sure to die, and she will follow suit – that kind of “living.”
And if Lu Ping’an is sure he cannot live, he will definitely take Chris-chan with him in that sort of “dying.”
However, from another perspective, she has completely bound herself to Lu Ping’an, separated from the outside world, and cannot leave the “courtyard.” She has beco the only existence that Lu Ping’an can expose all the truth and ask for opinions.
“Blood Sacrifice, Magic Potion, Taboo Items, Xia Qin’s information is accurate; Chris really is a cult leader.”
But now, Chris’s advice is either to have Lu Ping’an killed or make him an enemy of humanity, so none of it can be trusted.
The more she tempts him, the more wary he becos.
“Indeed, I need to simr this ‘eagle’ for a while…
I’ll have to do it myself for now.
Her advice cannot be trusted at this point.”
Lu Ping’an is a newcor who’s just stepped into the Extraordinary World, and he lacks the “common sense” of a traveler from another world; he needs a guide.
Advance step by step according to the arrangent of Sister Xia?
It’s too slow, he doesn’t have that ti.
Having such a Quasi-God-level “grandfather” to guide him and help him cheat would make Lu Ping’an feel that his chances of survival are sowhat higher.
But now, both master and servant are in a “break-in period” – it’s the kind where they both try to wear each other down to nothing…
During this period, Lu Ping’an doesn’t want to expose too many of his needs.
He wants to tornt her and “boil her” so that it will be more convenient for them to get along long-term.
How can a Quasi-God look up to a mortal?
She needs so ti to adapt to this reversal of the master-servant relationship.
Humiliation, manipulation, teasing – this is the “feast” that Lu Ping’an has prepared for her, which will help her quickly understand her current position and who is in charge.
It will also help her vent her inner frustrations and discomforts.
Eventually, she’ll regain her senses after her rage, perhaps even more explosively.
“She’s not stupid; she should know better after a few more tornts…
It depends on when she really calms down; that’s when we can start communicating.”
Lu Ping’an puts away his ga console and takes out his books from the side, getting ready for today’s howork.
He’s pretending, but not entirely.
There are things that he really wants to play with and eat, and so are just for Chris-chan, who’s actively contacting him.
Having nothing to ask for and not caring puts Lu Ping’an in a stronger bargaining position during negotiations.
Take this, for instance: she’s even starting to offer him terms.
She’s getting impatient!
“Although the ti is pressing, you can’t rush to boil the eagle.
I’ll tease her for a month or two before making a move.
It’s kind of fun to watch her get angry but unable to bite .”
Xia Qin and the relevant departnts have demanding requirents for Lu Ping’an – to “grow and progress in an orderly and proactive manner under the supervision of official organizations.”
However, Lu Ping’an is not in the habit of entrusting his future to fate and others.
“…
Among the six top ‘Night Watchman Training Schools’ in the city, only one is public.
With my current level, it’s basically impossible for to be admitted.”
If he can’t get into an “officially-appointed institution” and gain more autonomy, it’s not just a matter of waiting another half year.
Now, Lu Ping’an’s actions are limited; he has to report even when he goes grocery shopping.
With limited ti and an urgent need to go out and have fun…
find a way to survive, to Lu Ping’an, it’s a matter of life and death.
Once again, opening the professional materials and textbooks Xia Qin provided, Lu Ping’an knew he wouldn’t be able to do it through normal channels.
“The Essence of Three-Year College Entrance Examination, Five-Year Mock Exam, and Ten-Year Secret Keeper Professional Exam Questions.”
It’s not clickbait.
When he opened the booklet, it was filled with text and illustrations, and it really was an entrance exam question.
A bag full of exam papers, piled up to the thickness of six dictionaries, and it’s just a high school freshman’s monthly mock exam.
“Runner?
Watcher?
Beast Tar?
Don’t just focus on the hot professions; the perfect fit for you is the best!
How to choose the best starting point for yourself from among fifty-three common paths, based on your awakened Abnormal Ability!”
Ha, fifty-three paths?
That’s at least a thousand Abnormal Abilities and Professional Skills to morize, which is not sothing that can be done in a short ti.
It requires understanding and experience in various actual combat situations, and it’s best to have professional instructors to explain it.
“Secret Realm Survival Rules (Newbie Edition): If you can manage to survive until the awakening of your Abnormal Ability, you win.”
That’s no use to !
Sir, I’ve already awakened!
What?
You want to enter your exam questions too, and you’re especially difficult, requiring answer application questions and scenario writing?
%#&…%!
These books that should be classified as fantasy have book numbers and covers, and they’re clearly from a regular publisher.
They are even textbooks for the Special College Entrance Examination.
As a ti-traveler, Lu Ping’an is completely incapable of following the basic theories, and even so of his “common sense” doesn’t pass muster.
And other candidates have at least been preparing for half a year, and there’s only…
“Fifteen days left.
If I just flip through the books, it won’t be enough…
I’ll have to find so new chives, preferably mature chives that can move on their own.”
