Hearing Kael’s words, God of Wealth was stunned for a mont and suddenly felt a tingling sensation on his scalp.
Although he had many questions about the ga, this was the first ti he felt such genuine fear.
He managed to muster a slight smile and said, "Does the Lord also speculate about the world we are in, in private?"
"In fact, there’s no need to overthink it. A lot can be discerned from your characters alone."
Kael chuckled softly, and that aningful laughter made God of Wealth’s scalp tingle:
"Don’t be nervous. Just so spontaneous thoughts. How do you regard us originals?"
"Regard?"
"Those of us left behind here are just a part of the past, a shadow left behind in history.
We can only stay here, unable to touch the reality you live in, unable to accompany you into the future.
When you leave this place and return to your normal, real life, you know very well that everything that happened here is just a story, a dreamlike story.
Soon enough, you will forget these events, forget these words, forget our existence.
You will et people more worthy of your attachnt, maybe you already have, and you will ultimately have your own life, to embrace the tomorrow that belongs to you.
And we will still remain here, continuing with our emotions, our thoughts, our will, and our actions…
To you, what do we, the inhabitants, an to any of the Undead?"
Kael’s words left God of Wealth silent for a long while until he finally shook his head and reluctantly said:
"Who knows what this damned world will be like in the future? People with girlfriends can still break up, married people can still get divorced, getting into a good school doesn’t guarantee finding a good job...
At least at this very mont, I have cherished life here, loved the stories here, and I guess that’s enough."
Kael rarely had such long conversations with a player. He truly didn’t intend to give Strange Power Chaos God any special treatnt, but that didn’t stop him from having a longer chat with his old friend.
Especially since in his previous life he interacted with Cai Ketongshen the most – soone who could both be considered a boss and a friend who he could talk to.
But it seed that his actions had scared God of Wealth.
Although that was indeed his intention, he still distinctly felt the barrier between them when he saw God of Wealth.
He was a Human living in the real world, and to him or to the wider group of players, Kael was rely an NPC.
One couldn’t expect the players to empathize.
No matter how much they enjoy the ga now, the mont they discover that NPCs in the ga might touch reality, the first thing that most of them will feel is—
Fear!
He suppressed the superfluous emotions in his heart, and looking sowhat coldly at Cai Ketongshen, said:
"I’ve said a bit too much today. Rightly speaking, I shouldn’t reveal such impactful information to you without any good reason, according to the agreent I had with the Earth Mother Goddess Church. You know what I an, the information you can get from your investigation capabilities. But now that I’ve already revealed it to you ahead of ti, I wonder if you’d be willing to honor the agreent and take on a task."
Or perhaps what I said is not quite right... To be more accurate, it should be seen as a request of mine, not sothing that will be issued to you in the form of a task... a request." Explore hidden tales at .Côm
When Kael, with his hands crossed under his chin, gazed at God of Wealth from across the desk, God of Wealth could feel the cold sweat streaming down his face.
It was as if the person standing in front of him was aware that he was in a gaming world...
The horror of breaking the fourth wall made God of Wealth begin to doubt certain things.
If he rembered correctly, this ga didn’t originate from a corporation but from the military, right?
His mind inadvertently recalled the conversation he had with Xiao You.
Xiao You’s family was unusual, and when he played the ga with her, he was indeed more cautious in his attitude toward her.
After all, the shoulder boards of her father’s work uniform bore wheat and stars, which ant he couldn’t help but treat it with due seriousness.
He couldn’t help but think back to the ti when he first entered the ga. After touring the village, he, Xiao You, Qing Ya, and Guarantor gathered to chat by the cold pool.
At that ti, he asked, "What are your impressions?"
Qing Ya responded, "It’s a bit too realistic, in every sense of the word, very realistic..."
Then he asked Xiao You, "Xiao You, have you heard any news on your side?"
The reply Xiao You gave was, "The news of military-to-civilian transfer seems true. My dad told to play this ga more when I have ti."
In an instant, he felt as if he rembered many things from the past, rendering him even more silent.
When he looked up at Kael again, his expression had beco incredibly serious.
Regardless of whether this was an easter egg in the ga, a joke played by the ga operators, or if certain individuals from the Human Federation were scheming behind the scenes,
He was serious now.
God of Wealth carefully locked eyes with Kael and asked, "What is your task?"
