Day 13. Morning.
“You know what to do tonight, oppa?”
Yu Zhiye digested the little drama suggested by his evil green tea bitch, but doubts can’t help but arise. “Noona, you sure this is really going to work?”
“Of course.” Chae Yoona flipped her stylish bangs. “Men, they’re just that easy. Oppa just needs to cooperate and Yoona will let our business take off.”
“Oh. If you say so.” Yu Zhiye didn’t really care how she did it, as long as she got things done.
Still, when he thought about how risky the game she will play was, Yu Zhiye can’t help but look at his bitch in a new light. “It’ll be hard on you, noona.”
“My, my, not at all. A little hardship is nothing, as long as... CEO Yu is happy.”
Right on cue, the enchantress immediately backed up what she said with another special care session for his morning wood like it was second nature.
The way her tongue polished his fishing rod was… impeccable, almost like she was enchanted by the rod’s lure buff.
Just how does this woman lower herself to worship what she felt disgusted by so well? Who knows.
Yu Zhiye only knew: it felt absolutely amazing no matter how many times she did it. Honestly, he might never get tired of this!
The best part? Such distraction... really won’t affect the speed at which he catches fish!
His hands were free to switch between reeling in that rod, petting that obedient head, and even accessing the system interface to catch up on the latest news.
On the so-called other continent, there wasn’t much happening, except...
[Little Dragon Maiden] This world is really rotten to the core. A gang of beefy men actually claimed I had heaven-defying talent and kidnapped me back to their sect to become a body refiner. What am I to do? Crys.
[Heavenly Sage] This fairy, the rivers of the martial world are deep. Might as well come seek a safe harbor and band together for warmth. If you agree, just add a friend and I’ll come save you even if I must overturn the Heavenly Courts!
Well, courtship drama. Typical.
Yu Zhiye didn’t know if the players over there were preserving resources or just love lurking, but there really wasn’t much activity from the eastern-themed player base.
On the flip side, the westernized steampunk world outside was much more lively.
[The Greatest Pirate to Have Ever Lived] Wahahaha! Scrubs! Your most legendary pirate is back at last! Now stronger and better than ever! Yours truly popped a player potion and officially became a player! Suck on that!
[I Am BatStark] Player? Mind sharing what perks you get from that? I’m sure everybody would love to know.
[Piss Off] +1.
[Please Suck Me] +2.
[The Greatest Pirate to Have Ever Lived] Fine, since yall begging me, yours truly will do you all a favor. You won’t believe how extraordinary a single potion can be! It actually gave me a whole system upgrade! I’m literally a gamer with hearts bar and all!
[Piss Off] Pooh. A HUD update? Is that all? You sure you didn’t confuse the word extraordinary with something else, buddy?
[The Greatest Pirate to Have Ever Lived] Pooh your head! If that was all, it wouldn’t be worth all the risks I took to get it! Let me tell ya, getting gamified completely changes your existence! Now, any damage can’t even make me bleed! Oh, the looks on those NPC faces when they thought I was invincible!
[I Am BatStark] Oh. Based on my analysis, that potion really turns you into a game character like in the original game? But since there’s a RPG mod, there must be other perks, right?
[The Greatest Pirate to Have Ever Lived] You’re right on that. But that’s all I’m gonna say. Even the greatest pirate won’t be silly to waste all me treasure doing a lecture for free. If you want to know more… come join my crew!
[The Greatest Pirate to Have Ever Lived] Yours truly led a crew of slaves and took over a ship as my own! Now the greatest pirate has officially set sail! Calling all players! This is your once in a lifetime opportunity to join the greatest pirate crew to have ever lived! Anybody that wants to sign up, just gimme your pickup location!
[Monkey D. Hyung] For real? For real?! Big brother upstairs, I’ll join! I’ll join! I’m stuck on an island off the coast of Hoen! Please come save me! I’ve just arrived, but the pirates here already wants to snatch my kidneys and stick me in the hide!
[One-Eyed Troll] Ma lucky man. This is your chance to integrate into the pirate culture. Feel the pain. Know pain. Make the world feel pain.
Damn! Yu Zhiye almost wanted to clap for that new kid on the block! Especially since the chat got even more lively with him kicking things off.
[AllBluesBeard] Butter me timbers. My dreams was to become a navy chef, but I spawned with a trashy pirate system on a broken cargo ship stuck in the middle of nowhere. Days ago, food stopped spawning. Now, the entire crew is staring at sea water and drinking northwest wind. Greatest Pirate upstairs, got space for an entire crew?
[One-Eyed Troll] Gratz buddy. Worry not, you won’t be the first chef to die from hunger. Here, have some imaginary fish and seaweed if that helps. Can’t swim? Pray to the Goddess of Storm and she’ll help.
[AllBluesBeard] Troll, get lost! I’m talking serious business here! I’ve got a whole crew depending on me! If you aren’t gonna help, stop messing around!
[One-Eyed Troll] Me? Messing around? More like you! If you can afford to chat here, quit wasting resources and go find a way to survive instead. At least get your bearings before crying for help. Middle of nowhere? Hah! Ya expect us to search for you like a needle in a haystack? Dream on!
The chat cut off there. Obviously, there really was no retort for that down-to-earth response.
Yu Zhiye sighed and closed the chat. “Guess it’s not just us. Everybody has it hard, huh?”
Perhaps starting in this desert where even birds don’t shit wasn’t so bad, after all.
Well... at least he’s doing well.
Yu Zhiye’s gaze drifted down and watched that beauty queen swallow for a long hard second. Yeah. She had it hard, but he’s doing well. Very, very well. Haha.
“Hey, if my life is a novel, it’ll be really colorful, won’t it? Sex, comedy, fun and games—it has it all!”
The only thing missing was plot armor-tier power that can turn the world upside down.
“Alas… I’m just a poor and weak fisherman. Hah...”
That only earned him a sarcastic look from the bitch, but the nibbling on the mushroom didn’t stop.
Yu Zhiye ignored the bitch trying to get his attention and reeled in the rod, only to find…
“What’s this? Haah? A rotten flesh?! Ew. I can really catch stuff that’ll make me lose my appetite, huh?”
He was hoping for chests or sticks, but this was what he gets. What bad luck.
The same bad luck applied to his chest opening yesterday. Only two sticks, which meant he’s still lacking another to craft a fishing rod.
“What an awkward turnout. Why can’t plot armor just hand it all over at once?”
Now, he gotta pray to the RNG god because even Jack and the little lucky charm didn’t have any spare sticks.
Unless they somehow get lucky today.
“Hmm… wonder what they’ll find out there today?”
