"Whew~"
"Never mind."
With a heavy exhale, Lin Yu ultimately dismissed the idea.
The reason was simple.
Damn it.
With his limited skills, he wouldn’t get anywhere in the underworld.
"Ugh!"
"So annoying!!!"
Lin Yu frantically tugged at his messy blond hair, his mind a jumbled mess.
His heart felt just as chaotic...
"Maybe I should do something?"
Rubbing the faint stubble on his chin, Lin Yu wanted to distract himself and escape this suffocating emotional spiral.
Clean up the place?
He glanced around—the room was old but tidy, everything neatly arranged. Nothing to clean.
How about homework?
He turned to the open math workbook on the desk, eyeing the single word "Solution" he’d struggled to write in half an hour. Disgusted, he rolled his eyes.
Hah.
Using homework to relieve stress?
What was he thinking?
Then again...
Go out for fun?
But where?
And what would he even do?
After a moment of contemplation, Lin Yu found the perfect destination.
The little internet café downstairs!
The thought of the café made his eyes light up.
Now that he thought about it, ever since transmigrating, he’d been busy with Xia Muzhu and Tang Manman’s affairs or studying—he hadn’t touched a computer once.
Let alone played any games.
Tsk tsk!
What a slacker!
Lin Yu shook his head regretfully.
Back in his past life, he’d been an ioi prodigy!
A Silver-tier powerhouse right out of placements, then casually climbed to Gold. During the summer after the college entrance exams, he’d even pushed to Diamond II.
Earning a spot in the Canyon’s Peak.
A true genius!
Too bad...
Lin Yu sighed softly.
He never got to spend the free RP the Canyon’s Peak gave him before transmigrating.
Damn it!
Feels like losing a fortune!
"Ah well."
"Wonder if my skills have gotten rusty after so long."
Excited, Lin Yu stood up and stretched his shoulders.
"Perfect timing—nothing else to do today."
"Let’s go!"
"Time for some fun!"
He turned to leave but paused at the door.
Spotting the small mirror on the shoe rack, he bent down, adjusted his slicked-back hair, and studied his reflection.
Hmm...
"Looks a bit fairer, huh."
Noticing the reduced contrast between his tanned right cheek and his naturally pale left, Lin Yu nodded to himself.
Seems the sunscreen and makeup did help.
"But if I go out like this, should I still wear makeup?"
Frowning, he hesitated.
Even with his right cheek lightened, the difference was still obvious.
Going out like this would definitely draw laughs.
But doing a full face?
Even a quick routine would take at least half an hour.
Lin Yu glanced back at his bedroom, his heart itching like a cat was scratching it.
Half an hour?
No way!
My blade thirsts for blood!!!
After a moment’s thought, he dashed back to his room, rummaged around, and dug out the mask and cap he’d worn when entering Xia Yueshan’s school. Once equipped, he bolted out the door and downstairs...
...
At the café, he booted up the computer, eagerly created an account, and happily launched the game, clicking "Start Match."
In champion select, he instantly locked in Blitzcrank.
After such a long break, Lin Yu decided to warm up with support—no need to ruin others’ games.
Once roles were locked in, the loading screen appeared. Staring at the familiar art, Lin Yu couldn’t stop grinning.
League of Legends!
Let’s go!
...
Six hours later...
That damn Zilean!
I’ll punch this bastard to death!!!
How is he so infuriating!!!!!

ts me of treason?" "Correct. The host must return to the capital and gradually build up influence." "Wait—I have half a million soldiers, and you want me to go back to the capital to 'build influence'?" "Host, you are currently the Northern Garrison General, loyal to the Great Xia Dynasty." "Of course I am loyal to Great Xia! Absolutely loyal!" "But you keep referring to yourself as 'We'..." "Never mind the details! Summon all the regional commanders and military officers!

lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore."
