"Negative Trait?"
Liu Yuan stared at her phone, her delicate brows furrowing in confusion.
What kind of obscure term was this?
Shouldn’t this only appear on legendary-tier cards of the eighth rank or higher?
Because the power was too overwhelming, the user had to pay a certain price to wield it.
It was both strength and a curse.
Are you telling me this "mere" fourth-rank rare card also has a negative trait?
She didn’t see any negative trait…
Wait a second?
Huh?
Huh?!
Finally, at the very bottom of the card’s panel, she spotted a line of gray text that nearly blended into the background.
[Special Skill ③: But at what cost? — Must complete the "Daily Adventure" to activate Special Skills ① and ②. Otherwise, the card only retains its basic attributes.]
You see…
Cards below the legendary tier usually had black backgrounds with white text…
So this Special Skill ③ was gray text on a black background…
Excuse me, is today’s "adventure" an eye exam?
Complaints aside, Liu Yuan still channeled her spiritual energy into the card and chose to equip it.
The next moment, she felt a cool sensation against the skin of her legs.
Something incredibly smooth and soft clung to her skin, fitting snugly.
"Armor?"
"Leg wraps?"
With a bit of hesitation, she slowly looked down.
Her slender calves, slightly lifted as she sat on the bench, swayed in a graceful white curve.
So this piece of equipment was…
White thigh-high socks…
Liu Yuan: ???
Thigh-highs count as equipment?
But that wasn’t the main issue.
She flexed her feet and took a few steps.
The white stockings didn’t feel restrictive at all—instead, they made her feel lighter.
Of course, don’t get the wrong idea; it was just the agility stat at work.
Then, she chose to activate Special Skill ③.
Almost immediately, she received feedback.
[The equipped must loudly proclaim, "But at what cost?" to receive today’s adventure task.]
This… this…
This is way too embarrassing!
Liu Yuan nervously glanced around.
Thankfully, no one else was nearby.
In a voice so quiet even she could barely hear it, she muttered, "But at what cost?"
[Daily Adventure: Say "You’re amazing" out loud to the person whose name has crossed your mind the most today.]
[Current Target: I Want to Sleep]
[Daily Adventure Reward: Temporary use of Special Passive ① for today, +1 permanent agility.]
Huh?
Huh?!
Huh?!?!
A rush of heat surged to her face—no need to check, she knew she must be blushing furiously.
Do…
Do I have to say it?
It’s only 11 AM… which means 13 hours of automatic cultivation, equivalent to five days of effort.
Plus a permanent +1 stat…
If it’s for my brother…
Her finger hovered over Su Qi’s voice message button, pressing and releasing, pressing and releasing.
She’d already sent five completely silent voice messages.
Seeing those five messages, her eyes suddenly lit up—as if she’d found a solution.
If she sent a few more, mixing it in…
He wouldn’t listen to every single one, right?
Not that she didn’t want to say it…
But saying something like that… it’s just too embarrassing…
And wouldn’t it make her seem too casual…
Meanwhile, on the other end.
Su Qi saw the incoming voice messages.
He tapped to listen.
All he heard was the sound of wind and a girl’s soft breathing.
So… what did this mean?
Thankfully, each message was only two seconds long.
If they were sixty seconds, he wouldn’t have dared to listen.
Because Su Qi knew—sixty seconds wasn’t the limit of the message, but the limit of the messaging app.
After listening to three silent messages in a row,
Su Qi felt something was off…
Wait a second?
He suddenly noticed one message that was three seconds long.
He tapped it.
A sweet, tender voice, carrying the warmth of a girl’s breath, seemed to brush against his face.
"Brother~ You’re amazing."
[Pleasure +128]
[Sparkle +3]
Th-this… this is way too good.
Look, both are girls, but Little Iris’s voice is a million times more pleasant than his icy-toned little sister’s.
Ah, I’m dead!
No—worth it.
] This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game. The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions. However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw! To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards. For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure. Worried about characters losing affection points? No need. With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back. It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers. However... Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game. His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes. Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls." Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes... The type who will kill you if they can't have you... Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left. "I really just want to survive..." In short, this is a story of battling wits and engaging in a love-hate relationship with yanderes.
close your eyes and open them again, only to find yourself transmigrated into the role of a villainous male supporting character. Readers familiar with urban wish-fulfillment novels know that it is only through the relentless antics of the villainous male supporting character that the plot between the male and female leads can progress. As the villainous male supporting character, Long Aotian not only has to bully the female lead, harass the second female lead, and flirt with the third female lead, but he also has to go all out to antagonize the male lead. In the end, when his body is discovered, he is still clutching half a moldy fried dough stick in his hand. Fully aware of the plot, Long Aotian is determined to change his fate, starting with the female lead! In the beginning, the female lead lacks confidence: "Big brother, I hope I didn't scare you?" In the middle, the female lead treads carefully: "Brother Long, please don't hit me, okay?" Later on, the female lead becomes coquettishly clingy: "Aotian, it's time to pay the 'public grain' tonight." Long Aotian's legs go weak, and he feels like crying: "I taught you to be thick-skinned, not shameless!"
