At a small outdoor table in the amusement park, sunlight spilled onto the surface, casting dappled shadows through the gaps in the leaves.
Su Muwan listlessly sprawled on the table, her chin resting on the surface and her arms dangling limply. She kept muttering, "I'm so hungry, so hungry! I might starve to death here!"
"Luo Luo~!"
She lifted her head and looked at Qin Luo, who remained unmoved beside her. Blinking her eyes, she sparkled with excitement and said, "I want cotton candy, roasted potato skewers, crepes, and a sundae! Oh, and some matcha chocolate cake too!"
So why is it all snacks?
Qin Luo chuckled softly, a faint smile tugging at the corners of his lips as he looked at the nearly famished young lady. "Alright, Miss, let's go grab some snacks first."
However.
"Eh..."
Su Muwan slumped back onto the table, lazily saying, "But I'm so tired from playing. I don't want to move. Luo Luo, go buy them for me."
"Miss, does this really fit your cool and domineering persona?"
Ahem!
Su Muwan's expression stiffened at his words. She cleared her throat, took a moment to compose herself, and then opened her eyes, shining brightly at Qin Luo. "Luo Luo! Please, please, please! Buy them for me!"
Please...
Please...
You...
A second later.
Qin Luo looked at Su Muwan, whose eyes were now sparkling like little stars, and reluctantly stood up. He sighed softly, "This is just too unfair, Miss."
"Wait here for a bit."
"Yay!"
Su Muwan giggled.
Little Qin Luo, totally under my control!
Meanwhile.
In the shadows.
A figure emerged, dressed in a peach-colored kimono. Behind a folding fan that covered half her face, her lips curled into a slight smile.
Her gaze followed Qin Luo's retreating figure.
With a faint smirk, she whispered, "Send someone to follow him. Wait for the right moment... and kill him."
"Yes!"
Swish, swish, swish—!
In an instant, several masked figures vanished into the shadows, swiftly heading toward Qin Luo.
Alright.
Now then.
Sakurata Momo observed Su Muwan, who was still sitting there, with great interest.
Having finally returned from that damned alternate world.
Let me see what you and that so-called lackey of yours are capable of!
Thinking this.
Sakurata Momo closed her folding fan and snapped her fingers lightly, her eyes glowing with a faint light.
[Nightmare]! Activate!
Hum—!
In an instant.
The sky gradually darkened, and the surroundings twisted and distorted.
The cheerful laughter faded into silence, and the colorful amusement park rides turned eerie and sinister. The once merry-go-round horses transformed into terrifying skeletal steeds.
The smell of rust and blood began to permeate the air.
The shopkeepers' eyes became hollow, and the tourists on the streets slowly stopped walking and looked up.
The sun in the sky had unknowingly turned into a crimson orb!
Hum—!
A cold wind blew past.
Su Muwan lifted her head and blinked, looking at the bright sky. "Strange, why do I suddenly have this bad feeling?"
Never mind.
Su Muwan fiddled with her phone, wanting to scroll through some short videos.
But...
"Huh? Why is there no signal?"
Su Muwan sighed in frustration. "Can't they build a few more signal towers? If I get really mad, I might just take over and unify them all!"
In the shadows.
Sakurata Momo's gaze sharpened.
The [Nightmare], an SSS-level ability, could plunge an area into a living nightmare.
The power of this ability could affect reality itself.
It could also make people within its range unable to distinguish between reality and illusion.
However, from Su Muwan's reaction just now, it was clear that she had sensed something.
Heh, as expected of Su Muwan.
But unfortunately.
Sakurata Momo clenched her fist. Your perception is still far too weak!
You see!
In that alternate world, what she had experienced was nothing short of hell.
Yet she had endured and survived.
Her abilities had long since reached an unprecedented level!
Even you, Su Muwan, could never see through my methods!
This time, having returned, she was determined to lead the Sakurata family... to the pinnacle of Cherry Blossom City's underworld!
As for that lackey of yours.
If nothing goes wrong, he should already be dead by now.
....
....
Meanwhile.
"Boss, two cotton candies."
"Wait, just one."
After scanning the payment code, Qin Luo sat down and waited patiently.
A smile played on his lips as he recalled the amusing moments he had shared with Su Muwan over the past couple of days.
Hmm, the young lady is really adorable.
I'll buy all the sweets and then trick her into eating them with me.
Qin Luo, you're a genius.
Just as he was thinking this.
"Qin Luo!"
Su Muwan's voice came from a distance.
Qin Luo was startled and turned to look. He saw Su Muwan waving at him as she ran over.
He chuckled softly.
Oh, she couldn't wait... huh?
Qin Luo was about to respond, but as he watched Su Muwan running toward him, his expression suddenly darkened.
No, something feels off.
"Qin Luo, I thought about it and decided to come with you to buy the snacks."
Su Muwan playfully walked up to Qin Luo, her eyes shyly looking up at him as she said, "I just like being with you."
As she spoke, she reached out to take Qin Luo's arm.
Slap!
Qin Luo stood up and coldly swatted her hand away.
"Ouch! Qin Luo, what are you doing?"
Su Muwan winced in pain, her expression one of disbelief as she looked at Qin Luo's cold face. She pouted, "You hurt me."
"Are you mad because I asked you to go buy them alone?"
Su Muwan reached out again, trying to hold Qin Luo's arm. "I'm sorry..."
But.
Slap!
Qin Luo swatted her hand away again.
This time.
Su Muwan's expression froze.
Huh?
What... is going on?
The next second.
"Hah..."
"Should I call you idiots, or just plain stupid?"
Qin Luo sighed impatiently, his voice dripping with disdain. Then, with icy coldness in his eyes, he glared at the 'Su Muwan' before him and said, "Don't you dare impersonate the young lady I love in front of me!"
As he spoke.
Slap—!!
Qin Luo suddenly struck out, his hand slamming into the shocked face of the imposter.
"Ugh—!"
Thud!!
The figure fell to the ground, and with a puff of smoke, transformed into a female ninja with a shattered mask, her face filled with terror.
At the same time.
Crack!
Like a mirror shattering, the surrounding scenery completely collapsed.
Revealing its true form.
A cold wind blew past.
Qin Luo looked at the blood-red sun and the gloomy, gray amusement park around him.
He couldn't help but sneer. Staring at the terrified woman before him, he said coldly, "It's not even Mid-Autumn Festival, and yet you're already so eager to reunite."
Swish, swish, swish!!
The hidden figures could no longer hold back. They leaped out one by one, staring in shock at Qin Luo, who had seen through everything.
"How did you figure it out?!"
"Lord's ability should never fail!"
One of them couldn't help but ask.
"Ha! Idiots!"
Qin Luo sneered, a dark glint flashing in his eyes.
Gurgle, gurgle!!
Thick, black mist began to surge from the amusement park.
One after another, shadowy creatures emerged.
And Qin Luo transformed into the Shadow Monarch, his voice booming like thunder in the ears of the ninjas present.
"Don't you dare underestimate... the bond between me and the young lady, you fools!!"
"My foot radar never fails!!!!"
Everyone: !!
What on earth are you talking about!!

ave】 Shen Qingling was a man with peerless looks, a cunning mind, and the ability to play both the aloof noble and the innocent sweetheart—a master of seduction who could outplay any player. But after an untimely death, he found himself bound to a system and transmigrated into the tragic "true young master" of a melodramatic novel. In the original story, his childhood sweetheart treated him as a backup plan, his fiancée swore to break off their engagement for the sake of the "fake young master," and his own sister saw him as the family's disgrace. He was nothing more than a rat everyone wanted to stomp on. System 077: "Your mission is to change the original fate and conquer the goddesses." Shen Qingling: "Thanks for the invite. If seduction had tiers, I’d be max level." His childhood sweetheart knelt, begging for forgiveness: "Qingling, I was wrong. Please give me another chance." His ex-fiancée refused to marry anyone else: "Shen Qingling, I was blind before. In this life, I’ll marry no one but you." A yandere CEO went mad for love: "Shen Qingling, you can only like me. I’ll stop at nothing to make you mine!" His green-tea sister clung to him daily: "Brother, look at me, won’t you? I’m more obedient than them—I love you the most~" At first, they scorned and trampled on him. Later, they burned themselves like moths to a flame, all for his sake. His looks were his weapon, his sweet words the bait—heroines obsessed over him, villains turned to madness for him. Shen Qingling became a true male siren, igniting battlefield after battlefield of women fighting for his affection. Years later, when System 077—now one of the elites—was asked how to become as outstanding as it, it lazily exhaled a smoke ring and replied: "Just know how to cheer ‘666’ at the right time."
