"Good morning brother."


"Morning."


"I had breakfast with me" he said, putting a bowl of soup on a table that could be adjusted on the bed.


“Yu Rou, can I ask for your help?” Yuan asked him as he was fed like a patient in the hospital.


"What's that?"


"I want to hear some fairy tales tonight." His words left him dumbfounded, who did not expect such a request.


“Why fairy tale?” He asked in a worried tone, afraid that the illness would finally mess with his mind.


“I made friends in the game, and he is a young NPC. I promised her that I would tell more fairy tales,” she explained.


“You told a fairy tale to an NPC? Big brother what are you doing, really?” Yu Rou sighed, thinking about how ridiculous he was.


“Do not let the fact that they are NPCs fool you into thinking that they are not worth your time. They move, think, react, and talk like real players. You won't know if they are real Players or not unless you ask them.


“Ya, yes. Just don't do anything weird to her, okay? ”


“Ant? Why did I do something weird?” ask Yuan.


“Did you not hear? There were many perverts who were killed for touching NPCs inappropriately. The death penalty is very harsh in this game from what I heard. ”


“A pervert touches an NPC? Can you do it in this game?” Yuan raised his eyebrows in surprise. What a deep game!


"ah! You're thinking of doing something perverted, aren't you!? Don't even think about it, brother! I'm forbidding you to do that as your sister! ”


“It only works if you are older, right?” She smiles.


“Then I will stop looking after you! Hmph!”


“Aiii Do you think your brother is some kind of pervert who likes to touch NPCs? Unlike some people, I have morals, you know. ” He sighed, and continued to speak, "By the way, what is this death sentence, and what happens if you die?" He was more interested in it than the pervert in the game.


“According to those who have died, some became unable to cultivate after death while some even lost their cultivation base completely, requiring them to restart from scratch.”


Yuan pondered. “So basically you have to start from scratch It is indeed very heavy for a game.”


“In addition, some people have already tried buying a new console to get started, but guess what? They still appear in games with the same characters!”


"So we're limited to one character no matter what?" Yuan was unable to understand the motives of the game makers for creating such a system; it was almost as if they wanted humans to live in another world with a life as realistic as possible.


“Ah, sister, it's time I go to school. I will take some fairy tales on the way home, ”he said before leaving.


"Thank you."



“He was not here” Yuan looked around to look for a small figure, but Xiao Hua could not be found. "I think he's home."


He decided to sit down and cultivate to wait for her. Seconds turn into minutes, and minutes turn into hours. Until nightfall, Yuan sat there like a stone statue, cultivating and not realizing that time had passed so quickly.

Yuan did not stop cultivating until it was time for dinner. “We couldn't play today but it's okay. At least I'll prepare a story for the next meeting. ” He stared at the night sky for a moment before logging off.



After feeding Yuan and cleaning it, Yu Rou began to recite fairy tales for her like a mother would tell her son before going to bed, but her voice was still too childish to sound like a real mother.


“How is my narrative?” he asked in a naughty tone.


“It sucks ”


“What”Good! You can read it yourself next time!”


"ah! Sorry, Yu Rou. I'm just kidding." Yuan hurriedly corrected himself, "Your voice is so heavenly that I thought you were really a fairy!"


Yu Rou blushed. “Shame reading this childish story out loud, know?” he said later, "I'll remember this debt of yours to me!"


"Yes yeah, I'll even give you my life, so get me some more fairy tales, okay?"


“”


“Yu Rou?” He called out to her after not receiving an answer.


“Brother, please don't say such a thing again,” Yu Rou said with a serious expression on her face, her voice rather sad.


Yuan quickly realized that he had messed up. "Sorry.." she apologized immediately.


"As long as you understand ..." Yu Rou left her side to close the lights, "Brother, this is late, you should sleep now."


“Un. Good night."


“Goodnight, brother.”



Inside her room, Yu Rou scoured the internet on her phone for some time before going to bed as usual.


“This Yuan player is very mysterious and confusing. In just two days since the game's launch, he was able to become the first Player to acquire Divine rank skills and complete the Hidden Quest. Is he even human?”


Despite not being able to play the game due to school and Yuan, he would still keep up with the latest information about the game so that when the time came to play, he would not feel too lost. “In the meantime, my brother toyed with the young NPC” he smiled bitterly at that thought.


"Wow, the reward has already risen to five million!" His eyes widened looking at the effort and money that others were willing to spend just to find this one player.


"So much fame .. how envious ..." she turned off the phone and closed her eyes. “Kakak also used to flicker with lights under his sigh spotlights” before slowly falling asleep.
