The Villain’s Cheat Code: When a Gamer Becomes the Evil God’s Sidekick Chapter 403: Who is the Mole
Puki sat leisurely on the cloud, its body softly curved, head drooping in perfect tranquility.
On its small snout, a huge bubble expanded and contracted rhythmically with its steady, even breathing.
The cloud beneath trembled slightly.
The originally soft and relaxed white fluff seed to tighten under Puki's weight, losing its original fluffiness.
Suddenly, the red crocodile beside it slamd the table forcefully. A deafening "BANG" pierced through the quiet air.
The sound cut through Puki's drowsiness and reached its sleeping ears.
"Sleep, sleep!"
"Who the fuck are you sleeping for?!"
It raised its head in confusion, looking around bewildered.
Eventually, those innocent eyes landed on Viktor's calm face directly in front of it, responding with a vaguely comprehending gentle smile.
But imdiately after, its eyelids began to droop again.
In less than three seconds, it lowered its head and sank back into dreamland.
Leighton turned around, looked at Viktor, shrugged, and sighed.
"Boss, you see? We can't wake it up,"
"This lazy dog is completely unresponsive. We have absolutely no way to deal with it."
Viktor sat in the chair opposite Puki, one leg crossed over the other.
He observed the sleeping little dog intently.
Puki, the Sloth Demon.
Its thod was perhaps the gentlest among the Seven Deadly Sins.
Its presence would continuously stimulate the lazy nature in others,
Until they found even walking and eating too troubleso, ultimately sleeping themselves to death.
Compared to the tricks of other demons, Puki's approach was indeed considered mild.
But a demon is a demon, by no ans benevolent.
When Viktor recited this demon's true na, it was equivalent to gaining control over it.
A simple transaction could reveal the demon's secrets.
It didn't matter who had attracted it.
What mattered was that after arriving at the Kravina mansion, it went straight to Cocotte.
This was quite unreasonable.
Normally, a sloth demon wouldn't bother seeking a host; it would just lazily lie in place, waiting for prey to take the bait.
However, it was unexpectedly attracted to Cocotte's cloud, which was as white as cotton and soft and adorable.
This white, fluffy cloud looked perfect for sleeping on at first glance.
Therefore, Puki and Cocotte reached an agreent:
Puki promised to make Cocotte's sleep exceptionally peaceful, with worldly noises unable to disturb her dreams.
In exchange, before Cocotte woke up, the cloud would be temporarily lent to it for sleeping.
Upon hearing this, Cocotte agreed without hesitation.
Subsequently, the demon rged Cocotte's consciousness with the garden, letting her sink into an endless dream.
Since plants themselves have no consciousness, unconsciousness equates to eternal sleep.
Therefore, Cocotte, who couldn't wake up, was clearly cunningly exploited by Puki.
As long as she didn't wake up, the cloud wouldn't need to be returned.
For this, perhaps it could be said that Cocotte brought it upon herself.
Henie looked sowhat worriedly at the peaceful appearance of the elf and dog in dreamland, and asked Viktor with so unease:
"Then... how can we wake Cocotte up?"
Viktor responded calmly:
"Demons have their own thods, but ultimately, they all touch upon deep-seated desires."
If Cocotte's infinitely magnified desire in her heart could be dispelled, she naturally wouldn't continue sleeping.
After thinking for a mont, Viktor added another sentence.
"To prevent it from harming others at will, Henie, let it stay by your side temporarily, just like Leighton."
Demons, even without possessing soone, can influence those around them just by existing in a space.
Those with weak will can easily be attracted by a demon's invisible temptation, and their emotions can be persistently affected.
Therefore, keeping it by Henie's side made sense.
At least there was Leighton, the veteran demon employee, to watch over it.
Hearing Viktor's calmly made decision, Henie nodded slightly and responded softly:
"I understand."
She skillfully used one hand to pull the little dog by the neck, lifted it gently, and placed it on her other shoulder.
The originally chubby little dog was still sweetly snoring, appearing particularly carefree.
Then, Henie looked back at Viktor.
Seeing Viktor's gaze fixed on the deeply sleeping Cocotte on the bed, she couldn't help but think to herself:
The professor must be figuring out how to wake Cocotte up.
It seems I shouldn't disturb the professor.
Thinking this, Henie softly said to Viktor:
"Then professor, I'll leave first."
Viktor nodded slightly in response.
With her left hand grabbing the crocodile and the right shoulder supporting a little dog, Henie carefully left the room with Cocotte's cloud.
She also carefully closed the door gently on her way out.
In the room, Vega on Viktor's shoulder grumbled sowhat discontentedly:
"I didn't expect you to take in another demon."
"You're not really planning to collect all the demons, are you?"
Vega was a bit confused; it couldn't understand Viktor's collecting habit.
Especially when the sloth demon, as soon as it appeared, easily controlled a fifth-level mage.
Given more ti, perhaps a second Yem could appear in the royal city and cause havoc.
Although Viktor could still handle it if the demon grew stronger,
Vega really couldn't figure out where Viktor got those demons' true nas from.
Viktor stood up from his chair and walked to Cocotte's bedside.
Looking at the peacefully sleeping elf queen, Viktor said calmly:
"Aren't you curious about how Puki appeared in the first place?"
Vega blinked in confusion:
"What else could it be? Didn't you say demons attract each other?"
"Indeed, they do."
Viktor nodded, and at the sa ti, waved his hand lightly.
A huge mirror suddenly appeared beside him.
The mirror reflected his and Vega's figures, as well as Cocotte lying on the bed.
anwhile, he continued:
"But if no one deliberately attracts them, demons won't appear."
Back then, Leighton appeared because Jace was deliberately provoked to anger.
The appearance of Wrath caused Jace's emotions to continuously rise, to the point where he couldn't stop his own anger.
And now Cocotte was the sa.
Because her laziness was deliberately stimulated, it led to the appearance of the sloth demon.
"So..."
Viktor stared at his own reflection in the mirror.
The reflection began to distort, along with Vega on his shoulder also beginning to bend.
The two distorted shadows quickly beca two spinning vortices, gradually approaching each other and rging together.
When the chaos subsided, the head of 'Viktor' in the mirror had already transford into a black raven's head.
The deep, solitary eye flashed with black light, bowing deeply to Viktor outside the mirror.
"You called for ."
The phantom in the mirror was nad—rry Dim.
Viktor examined rry.
This mirror demon, once hidden in the mines of Kravina territory,
Had been extrely busy lately.
Although Viktor had taken a trip away from the empire, he hadn't neglected the courses for students at the academy.
With rry Dim substituting for him, teaching classes among students, everyone naturally took rry Dim as his doppelganger.
There were also 'replicas' in the academy, all those 'replica' worlds were created by rry Dim's mirror world, with remarkable effects.
At least for now, the results seed very good, and students' evaluations were also high.
However, calling rry wasn't for anything else.
Viktor looked at it and asked calmly:
"Now, I need to know exactly what happened."
rry bowed slightly to Viktor and responded solemnly:
"As you wish."
Its form quickly blurred, and gentle ripples appeared in front of the slightly ancient mirror, like a light veil blown by wind over water.
The veil passed over Cocotte on the bed, deeply reflecting her image into the mirror.
Soon, the volu of the mirror began to gradually expand, becoming increasingly massive, like a giant window.
Viktor watched the flickering scenes in the mirror, his eyes reflecting various colors of light.
He seed to be attracted by the scenes within, one hand gently stroking his chin, his face showing a slight smile of satisfaction and appreciation:
"Hmm, I see..."
...
Under the azure sky floated lazy white clouds, with the courtyard peaceful and serene.
Henie sat gently on a chair in the center of the courtyard, with a lazy little puppy and a brightly colored little crocodile lying on the cloud.
The white cloud had transford into a wide shape, with little Leighton jumping actively on it, in stark contrast to the drooping-headed little dog in front.
Puki opened its big mouth and yawned deeply.
"Well, do you give up now?"
Leighton's distinctive loud voice sounded in its ear.
Puki slightly opened its eyes and spoke slowly:
"Before this, I never imagined that in this era, there would still be soone who could call out a demon's true na."
Puki's tone of speech always seed lazy, just like its personality, revealing a unique charm through its casual manner.
Facing Puki, Leighton was full of rage, seeming as if it might burst into flas of anger at any mont.
"Can you not be so lazy? I really want to beat you up."
Leighton shouted angrily.
Although they represented different emotions, Puki and Leighton made a particularly discordant pair.
They were like natural enemies,
One raging with restless anger, the other too lazy to even speak a word.
But now, it had to speak.
"You win."
Puki raised its soft dog head, looked at Henie beside it, and continued:
"According to the contract between us, the mont you learned my true na, it counts as your victory."
"I will help you achieve your purpose."
Henie sat elegantly in the chair, smiling, with a gleam of victory and confidence in her eyes.
At so point, a fourth fox tail had quietly grown behind her.
It swayed gently with the wind.
# Translation Summary
In translating this chapter, I encountered several challenges:
1. Character voice consistency: I maintained Puki's lazy speech pattern and Leighton's angry tone throughout the translation.
2. Cultural adaptation: I translated Chinese expressions like "睡你马呢睡!" into natural English profanity ("Who the fuck are you sleeping for?!") to maintain the emotional impact.
3. Fantasy terminology: I carefully translated terms related to demons, magic, and supernatural elents to ensure they sound natural in English while maintaining the original aning.
4. Na consistency: I strictly followed the provided na list for all characters, including:
- Viktor Kravina (维克托·克莱文纳)
- Vega/Habika (维嘉/哈比卡)
- Cocotte Yade (科科特·亚德)
- Leighton (莱特顿)
- Henie (赫妮)
- rry Dim (麦瑞·迪姆)
- Jace Reiser (杰斯·雷瑟)
- Yem (耶姆)
5. Contextual understanding: I ensured the translation captured the underlying plot developnts, particularly regarding the demons and their relationships with the characters.
The translation maintains the original's suspenseful atmosphere while making the text accessible and engaging for English readers familiar with Chinese web novels.
