Welco Wuxian as our new editor~

When Sui Yuan awoke in the new world, his mind was still focused on figuring out Zhao Xihe’s identity. Sui Yuan felt himself faintly grasping onto sothing, but it was fuzzy. He held his head, sitting on the bed for a long while until he finally gave up on thinking about it.

...Indeed, his IQ was a bit lacking. QAQ He should wait awhile until he gets a couple more hints before trying again....

Throwing the matter of Zhao Xihe’s identity aside, Sui Yuan began to browse his identity and assignnt for this world. He couldn’t help but feel deeply moved — unexpectedly, 5237 had not dug a pit for him this ti! (5237:..Hey!") It had truly helped him choose a normal and leisurely world.

This world was another ’Modern’ one and most of the plot’s developnts took place within an online ga. In other words, he could stay at ho all day and could leisurely play the ga while completing the plot. It couldn’t get any better than this!

After looking at his settings, Sui Yuan was so moved that tears were streaming down his face.

But to be honest, after after skimming the plot, Sui Yuan really couldn’t sympathize with the feelings of love and hate that existed within the ga. To Sui Yuan, none of the worlds felt real to him. Furthermore, this was a ga within these fake worlds, so it was even more difficult for him to conjure up any real emotions towards it.

——Why would you get mad if your ga character got killed? Why would you feel indignant while fighting over a piece of equipnt? Why would you like soone based on their ga character when you don’t even know what the person behind it is like in real life? Why would you worry and labour over a power struggle in the ga, fighting and scheming against other players? He completely could not understand any of this, what to do?!

Fortunately, the plot didn’t demand much from him this ti. Sui Yuan only needed to type out lines in accordance with the plot. Who cared if you were laughing or crying while typing those words?

Sui Yuan felt no pressure at all. ╮(╯▽╰)╭

Standing up, he walked over to the computer. Following what he recalled from the plot and his settings, he clicked on the icon for , inputted his password, and then saw his in-ga character.

The character with the ID [Disdaining the King of Hell] followed the righteous path. According to his in ga-character’s settings, he was a tank Of course, Sui Yuan didn’t quite understand the ga’s terminology and needed to familiarize himself with it a bit more. [Disdaining the King of Hell] had white hair, a righteous and majestic face, a healthy, lightly tanned complexion, and a tall and sturdy body. In addition, with the halo effect that ca from his top-notch outfit that had been refined and embedded with gems to the max, he was domineering to the point of blinding people’s eyes!

It could be said that Sui Yuan’s appearance had always been on the pretty, slim, and even delicate side. Even his real life appearance in this world was that of a small, handso, ordinary man. It was his first ti controlling a character that was as manly as this, and Sui Yuan secretly felt a little bit happy. It was clear that he also had the yearning to be powerful and domineering like any other guy.

Although Sui Yuan was very satisfied with [Disdaining the King of Hell]’s external appearance, unfortunately, [Disdaining Kind of Hell] was a villain role...and a cannon fodder gong at that.

According to 5237, the plot of this world was a cliche in gaming stories. It was so cliche, it couldn’t get any more cliche: cannon fodder gong [Disdaining the King of Hell] and the protagonist shou [Wind-Like High Official] t in the beginner’s village. One a main tank, whilst the other a healer — they were very well-matched and even their cooperation was not bad. Therefore, they decided to beco a team and level up together. They went from being normal friends to close friends and then beca inseparable. In the end, they even dated — [Wind-Like High Official] was 100% gay, while [Disdaining the King of Hell] was bisexual. For the two people to get together was the work of the golden finger given by the plot.

In the very beginning, the two husbands were very sweet and had a tacit understanding between them. Together, they rose to the top of the rankings, set up the guild {Heaven’s Alliance}, and developed and expanded said guild. [Wind-Like High Official] was reserved with his emotions. Although he wasn’t good at expressing them, he did his best. He worked hard without any complaints as he helped [Disdaining the King of Hell], willingly becoming the shadow behind his success. [Wind-Like High Official] drew up the rules for the guild and severely punished rule-breakers, not hesitating to provoke others’ complaints or hate. anwhile, with his help, [Disdaining the King of Hell] only had to appear magnanimous and bright, defend the rule-breaker, and emphasize the feelings of comradery. Therefore, the guild’s mbers had a very good impression of him.

——It had to be said, [Wind-Like High Official] was truly a good wife.

n degenerate when they have money. Although it can’t be used as a generalization, it’s definitely not an isolated case. [Disdaining the King of Hell] who had ’won success and recognition’ began to gradually overlook the help that [Wind-Like High Official] gave him. Likewise, he also began to feel discontent towards [Wind-Like High Official]. Although they were in an online relationship, [Wind-Like High Official], who was solemn and old-fashioned, continuously refused to et and even refused to video call. After all, as a gay person, if news of his orientation were to be leaked, it would cause severe repercussions on [Wind-Like High Official]’s real life. There were crooks mixed in with the honest folk. Swindlers who draped a sanctimonious mask over themselves were not uncommon. Before he decided that he could truly trust [Disdaining the King of Hell], [Wind-Like High Official] would not let their feelings in the 2D world expand into the 3D world.

Therefore, after being refused twice, [Disdaining the King of Hell] began to doubt [Wind-Like High Official] and guessed that he was ugly in real life and was afraid that their bubble would burst upon eting in real life. The feelings that arose from an online ga were weak after all. Furthermore, [Disdaining the King of Hell] wanted a physically beautiful partner. He didn’t act fickle, but he wasn’t devoted either. He gradually treated [Wind-Like High Official] with more indifference and went to fool around with another man he t in-ga who was pretty in real life.

[Disdaining the King of Hell] and the guy he t in-ga convened together in real life and tumbled in the sheets together. The guy was no push over either so the two of them eventually beca lovers. This guy thought of himself as the Guild Leader’s wife and especially hated [Wind-Like High Official], who the majority of the guild viewed as the ’Guild Leader’s Wife’. The new lover jumped around all over, attracting quite a few other players who held complaints against him to vent their anger. He thrust the originally harmonious guild into disorder. When faced with [Wind-Like High Official]’s criticism, [Disdaining the King of Hell] continued to protect his new lover, causing [Wind-Like High Official] to feel bitterly disappointed.

When [Wind-Like High Official] found out that [Disdaining the King of Hell] was two-timing, he ’peacefully’ broke up with him. For the sake of {Heaven’s Alliance} which he had invested his heart and blood into, [Wind-Like High Official] was willing to endure [Disdaining the King of Hell]’s new fla’s provocation. However, the other person simply didn’t want to let him off. In the end, [Wind-Like High Official] was ousted from the guild and was then invited into the guild {Carefree} which belonged to [Elegant and Humble Autumn Leaves], a supporting male lead who had favourable feelings towards him.

{Carefree} was a guild of close friends. Although it wasn’t big, the levels of all the mbers were still high, their equipnt was good, and their skills as players were also exceptional. Thus, they were also considered a well-known guild. Furthermore, there was [Lone Wind Wan Yi ], the number one god not only in their server, but across all servers.

...Basically, once you see a title like ’number one god’, you can be certain as to who the protagonist gong was. This ti was no exception.

As for how the feelings developed between the protagonist shou, protagonist gong, and the supporting male lead, it had nothing to do with Sui Yuan, who was a cannon fodder gong. [Disdaining the King of Hell] beca increasingly arrogant under the instigation and flattery of his new lover, causing {Heaven’s Alliance}’s conduct to beco more and more pompous and bossy. They looked down on other guilds, suppressing the other guilds in every way, making all the other players angry although they didn’t dare to speak out. At the sa ti, the new lover still held onto [Wind-Like High Official] and wouldn’t let go. He ca to provoke him many tis. In the end, he provoked [Lone Wind Wan Yi] and the mbers of [Elegant and Humble Autumn Leaves]’s guild {Carefree}’s anger on behalf of [Wind-Like High Official], causing both sides to start an all-out war.

{Heaven’s Alliance} had strength in their numbers, but the majority were not good players. Furthermore, they didn’t work as one. Although {Carefree} had few people, each person was formidable, and they were well-coordinated. At the very beginning, both sides were evenly matched. However, as more and more mbers of {Heaven’s Alliance} grew tired from the continuous guild war and from being killed, one by one, they withdrew from the guild. Veteran guild mbers also began to disapprove of the change in [Disdaining the King of Hell]. After an internal strife occurred, the guild split up. In summary, cannon fodder can never beat the protagonist.

After {Heaven’s Alliance}’s split, [Disdaining the King of Hell] fell silent, with his tail between his legs. He guarded the broken {Heaven’s Alliance}, annoyed at himself for his earlier mistake. He turned around and began to reminisce (...) about [Wind-Like High Official] who had worked so hard in silence for him. Unfortunately, at this ti, [Wind-Like High Official] and [Lone Wind Wan Yi] had fallen in love, leaving no place for him to stick himself between them.

In the end, at the offline player eting, [Wind-Like High Official] and [Lone Wind Wan Yi] t in person for the first ti. They finally transferred their feelings from the 2D world into the 3D world. anwhile, [Disdaining the King of Hell] finally saw [Wind-Like High Official]’s real appearance and discovered that he was a cultured, refined, delicate, and pretty person. He felt even more remorseful about his cheating. However, by then, it was already too late.

After going through the plot once and finding where he was in the tiline, Sui Yuan summarized his task into four steps:

et the new lover and have sex.Indulge the new lover and force [Wind-Like High Official] away.Expand {Heaven’s Alliance}, cause a disturbance, and then get slapped in the face like ’papapa’ by {Carefree}.Go look regretful about his past actions at the offline player’s eting.

Out of the four steps, the one that was the thorniest problem was naturally, step number one.

To et offline... was not an issue, but what should he do about getting into bed with him?! Not only could Sui Yuan not stand getting intimate with anyone other than Zhao Xihe, if Zhao Xihe found out about this matter — even if they just held hands — the consequences were too horrible to even contemplate!

Just thinking about it made him feel as scared as if heaven and earth fell apart, OK?! He would definitely be tornted in all kinds of ways. He might even directly end up dying in bed!

Therefore, he couldn’t have sex with the new lover. But if he didn’t, could the plot still be continued? Sui Yuan’s head hurt as he pondered over this thorny problem.

——In short, he’ll just think about this issue when it’s ti to et in person! Isn’t there a saying: When we get to the mountain, there’ll be a way through? Sui Yuan comforted himself in this manner and firmly tossed this worry to one side.

He clicked on the button under the character that said [Enter the ga]. [Disdaining the King of Hell] wielded two broadswords and struck a formidable pose. Afterwards, the screen darkened. When the loading bar filled up, Sui Yuan’s character appeared in the safe area in the outskirts of the city. What he had to do now was familiarize himself with the ga’s chanics.

Although he’s never played a ga before, Sui Yuan had learnt the basic chanics from the settings. It wasn’t hard to familiarize himself with them. Therefore, the players watched their server’s celebrity, the number one MT [Disdaining the King of Hell] look like he was spazzing out: Gets off horse, gets on horse, gets off horse, sits down, stands up, waves his hands, hugs, dance, kicks... it was simply so stupid that people couldn’t bear to look at him!

——Where was the proper mighty and powerful great god?! Was he hacked?! Did soone specifically hack into his account to ruin his image? What hatred!

Therefore, many kinds of private ssages were sent to Sui Yuan, giving him no choice but to pause his familiarization practice with the keys.

【Guild mber A】：Guild Leader! What’s wrong? Are you OK?!

【Disdaining the King of Hell】：Oh. Nothing’s wrong, I’m just bored.

【Guild mber A】：...Hehe, it’s rare to see Guild Leader play around like a child....

【Disdaining the King of Hell】：.........

【Good Friend B】：Say! Who are you! You unexpectedly hacked into Disdaining’s account! Quickly give it back to him!

【Disdaining the King of Hell】：...It’s . I’m just bored.

【Good Friend B】：...Why’d you give up on treatnt!

【Disdaining the King of Hell】：...Scram!

【Lone Wind Wan Yi】：Hacked?

【Disdaining the King of Hell】：...It’s —wait a minute! Sui Yuan quickly deleted the words that he typed and looked intently at the ID on the screen for a long ti, ascertaining that this was indeed the protagonist gong’s ID, and not so imitation.

If Sui Yuan didn’t recall incorrectly, then shouldn’t [Lone Wind Wan Yi] be lowkey and very seldom chat with people aside from his close friends in {Carefree}? Whether it was in the plot, settings, or his mory, [Disdaining the King of Hell] and [Lone Wind Wan Yi] didn’t have any kind of relationship, right? Aside from the face slapping he’ll get later on, that is.

Faced with the sudden appearance of the protagonist gong, Sui Yuan felt great pressure. He couldn’t just randomly reply to him like he had done with the other passerbys. Then... how should he respond?

Sui Yuan fell silent for three seconds and resolutely decided to ignore it. He received so many ssages, who would have the patience to reply to all of them? [Disdaining the King of Hell] was a great god after all! So he’ll just treat it as if he had never seen it before. ╮(╯▽╰)╭

He made his decision in this cheerful manner. In this way, Sui Yuan, ’playing God’, made [Lone Wind Wan Yi], who seldom reached out to other players, get a taste of the cold-shoulder treatnt for the first ti. It was truly gratifying, truly gratifying!

5237: ...You’re seeking death, ah! =皿=

As a qualified great god, not only did he have to be willing to spend money in-ga, he also had to have great skills. Although it was Sui Yuan’s first ti playing an online ga, he had once been a remarkable cha Fighter. So, no matter if it was speed of hand, sound judgent, or calculation speed, he greatly outstripped all other people within this ’Modern’ world. Even professional e-sports players were left in the dust, least of all online great gods who just played this as a hobby.

Sui Yuan believed that practice was required to acquire knowledge. It was only when put to use that one could determine whether a skill was good or bad. Therefore, Sui Yuan operated his max level 100 character to fight against a couple of little monsters at the city outskirts, slowly familiarizing himself with all of his skills.

Firepower, critical hit rate, buffs and debuffs, range of action, cooldown ti... Sui Yuan’s learning capability was first-rate and his mory was also incredible. Although the character had all kinds of skills and his skill shortcuts were nurous and complicated, at most, there were only 10-20 keys. It completely could not compare to the one hundred buttons he had to use as a cha Fighter. Basically, Sui Yuan treated his in-ga character as a cha for babies to play with. The difference in difficulty between the two was simply too great.

Low level monsters would die in one normal hit. The higher level ones would die in two or three. The peak level monsters at the sa level as his character would require the use of a skill and the top-notch, elite monsters required a combination of skills....

Sui Yuan killed his way through the lower level area to the higher level area. If Buddha got in his way, he’d kill Buddha. If a demon got in his way, he’d kill the demon. He simply could not be any more savage! Probably because he massacred too many mobs (?) but he ended up facing a field map BOSS monster.

Aside from the dungeon BOSSES, had two kinds of field map bosses. One was a common field map BOSS which normally took a party of 5-10 people to kill it. The other was cordially called the World BOSS. All interested players in the server had to relentlessly chase after it. Only after repetitively being killed, resurrected, being killed, resurrected, would they be able to grind down its health bar — of course, the reward was particularly generous.

The World BOSS’ spawning was announced throughout the server. As soon as it appeared, it would be surrounded by powerful players. So, the one Sui Yuan encountered was just an ordinary field map BOSS. Usually, the only option when encountering an ordinary field map BOSS as a single player was escape or be killed.

If Sui Yuan was a normal (?) player with even a shred of common sense, then he would definitely choose to turn around and run. However, it was a pity that Sui Yuan lacked common sense and only looked at the BOSS’ level that was 100, thinking it was just an elite monster with a big head. Therefore, he heroically t it head on.

The stupefied 5237："......"

[Lone Wind Wan Yi] who was extrely bored and watched from the shadows, indicating that he couldn’t bear to watch this scene："........."

After the first skill hit the BOSS, Sui Yuan sensed that sothing wasn’t right. The other’s health bar was too great, its skin too thick, and its debuff resistance too formidable. Furthermore, its firepower was rather high. At this ti, he suddenly recalled that there was sothing called a field map BOSS. However, Sui Yuan had no intention of retreating. Instead, he beca even more resolute and fought even harder. His fighting spirit was roused as he had never t a worthy opponent before.

What happened next was that Sui Yuan thoroughly showed everyone what was called speed of hand and what was called combative awareness.

His keen foresight and speedy,nimble maneuvering allowed Sui Yuan to veer away from all dodgeable attacks. His series of skills were launched, wasting no ti or MP. What was most important was that he wasn’t stingy with his character’s red potions. He replenished his health and inner force in a tily manner. He also increased his attack power, defense, speed, etc. Of course, his internet speed was also very impressive and there was little to no lag. There also wasn’t any sudden fraudulent slowing down of internet speed from the provider — that was probably 5237’s contribution.

Skill, potions, movent — every aspect worked in perfect tandem. Sui Yuan, who played better the stronger the enemy was, finally understood the joy of playing online video gas. He was completely unaware that he had brought about a world-shaking, jaw-dropping miracle.

When he had nearly consud all of his potions within his inventory, the field map BOSS finally let out a resigned howl before falling to the ground, exploding into a bunch of good items.

Slightly calming down his excited heart, Sui Yuan suddenly felt rather disappointed.

"What are you getting distracted for! Quickly go pick up the items! All of them are good things! Quick! If you don’t they’ll disappear!" 5237 who was also fired up promptly reminded him. Its fierce and boisterous appearance made it seem like, if Sui Yuan didn’t do it, then he’d face the wrath of god and the dissatisfaction of the people.

Therefore, the first ga character Sui Yuan ever played bent his noble waist and began to pick up the scattered spoils of war.

"Also, you can peel off the BOSS’ skin. It’s also a good thing! Quickly peel it off!" 5237 continued to compel him.

As such, Sui Yuan obediently fished out a knife and squatted down before starting to skin the BOSS....

After Sui Yuan squeezed the BOSS’ carcass for all it was worth, it disappeared. Sui Yuan, who had beco very familiar with playing his character during this battle, also beca tired of killing monsters and planned to return to his guild {Heaven’s Alliance} to check out his base at this ti.

Exiting battle mode, Sui Yuan looked for the [return to guild] button. His character began to rub its hand while preparing for the skill but just before the scene shifted to the loading screen, Sui Yuan thought he saw a dialogue box flash up on the screen.

After the screen loaded, [Disdaining the King of Hell] had already returned to his base. Sui Yuan also clearly saw what the dialogue box had said.

—- [Lone Wind Wan Yi] wants to add you as a friend. Do you accept?

Sui Yuan："........."

#The spirit of the protagonist gong has yet to disperse!

The author has sothing to say:

I discovered that every ti I update daily, the comnts are always a lot less...you guys are making want to not update daily! QAQ This silly author has always been a klutz and am technologically handicapped. Therefore, the ga world this ti follows the fantasy route — what’s the fantasy route? It ans that things that would be unreasonable in a ga, is reasonable in this silly author’s work! [Enough! (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻] is not based on anything. It’s a mish-mash of all the gas that this silly author has played before. Don’t take this silly author seriously!

Eve: I hate their IDs. I swear half the word count is made up from the repeated ntions of all their nas. Also, yay to badass! Sui Yuan. And lookie here, looks like he’s a "gong" this ti.... Hehe. Also laughing at the thought of ZXH blowing a gasket reading the plot and finding out SY is supposed to jump in bed with another man.

Juurensha: They do pick really long usernas... And yes, hahahaha ZXH is probably cursing out 5237 and plotting revenge on him.

Cat: long nas...harder to rember, aish.
