"I have already said it, Bluegreen-Clad only has eyes for Flowing Light that scoundrel!" Baby520 harangued irritably. "You see, in order to stand up for you, I killed Flowing Light's child. Bluegreen-Clad actually killed me for 35 times! If it weren't for my quick escape, I might have dropped to level 30 now."
In reality, she has already dropped from level 95 to level 88.
"Sorry, baby, I know you did everything for me. I will buy equipment from the shop to make up for the levels that you have lost." In YY's little room, Venus tried her best to cajole Baby520.
Baby520 thought of the news that Bluegreen-Clad had sent her and was irritated to the max. "No need! Bluegreen-Clad said it, in future if I get online again, he will continue to kill me until I quit the game."
Today, she had really gotten to know the power of the rich. Whatever rich equipment was nothing in their eyes. To a normal person like her, however, it was irresistible.
Venus also knew that Bluegreen-Clad had sent a message on Public Chat but she did not expect such an outcome. She was angry with Bluegreen-Clad for ignoring her and how he had actually unwaveringly gotten together with Flowing Light and even had a child with her.
No, she did not want that child given birth. Even if they were to be able to conceive in future, or even if it only means delaying the time they have a child, she will let Flowing Light have a hard time.
Baby520, who had gotten the most benefits off her, was unable to turn her request down. She could only risk getting killed by Bluegreen-Clad in her sneak attack on Flowing Light.
However, Venus still decided that it was just an NPC treasure and even without it, Bluegreen-Clad would still kill Baby520 several times to vent his anger. Who knew that to Bluegreen-Clad, his anger was absolutely irreconcilable.
Did Bluegreen-Clad care so much about the child that Flowing Light was carrying? For that child, he had actually spent so much money buying the resurrect books. She discovered for the first time that she did not understand this man who usually looked so calm. No, he still looked very calm. Only, he changed whenever it was a matter relating to Flowing Light.
"Venus, I am quitting the game today," Baby520 said coldly.
"Why?" Venus asked immediately. Baby520 was the "gun" that she had painstakingly raised, so how can she lose it just like that?
Baby520 said bitingly, "What can I do apart from quitting the game? Bluegreen-Clad will not let me off, and I have better things to do than to let him kill me everyday."
"I'm sorry, it's all because of me," Venus said apologetically. "But can you not quit the game? If you were to go like that, I would be very guilty. I will go plead for mercy with the gang boss, and ask him not to pursue this matter, okay?"
Baby520 grunted. "Just save your energy. Even if the gang boss were to let me go, what about the Matchless people? Can I defeat them just by my own efforts? The new gang that I had joined even kicked me out of the group in fear that they would get implicated by me! I'm no longer able to play this game, and I don't want to play it anymore!"
Actually, Baby520 regretted it now. She shouldn't have accepted those things that Venus had given her. It was true that accepting favors from others had not gained her an advantage but caused her to be beholden to them. She couldn't blame Venus—She could only blame herself for being greedy, thinking it was actually free lunch that fell from the sky.
It seemed better now. The numbers that she had painstakingly trained for have now all gone to waste.
"Then train for another rank, and I'll help you." Venus suggested.
Baby520 rejected decisively. "No, I really don't wish to play anymore. You are rich, so you can afford it. But I can't."
If she were to continue staying, she would get implicated in the affairs of Venus and Bluegreen-Clad. But she did not want to create trouble anymore. Even if it meant starting the game all over again, she would choose another area.
Venus noticed that Baby520 had made up her mind. It was useless to say anything now and she was a little disappointed. "Alright, let's play again when we have the chance."
Indeed, this was just lip-service.
Baby520 also understood and she sighed. "Venus, give up on Bluegreen-Clad. If he even cared about you, he would not have been so lovey-dovey with Flowing Light. We were all mistaken at the start, thinking that he was hiding from Flowing Light when he wasn't online for several days. But look at his att.i.tude towards Flowing Light later—he clearly likes Flowing Light!"
"That might not be true. Perhaps he just wants the power of the Matchless." Venus insisted.
Baby520 furrowed her eyebrows. "What's the difference? Isn't it all the same outcome? He could not divorce Flowing Light and marry you again. In that case, why don't you choose the Son of Heaven who is so in love with you?"
Son of Heaven? Before, Bluegreen Belt and Vine Flower had already stood on his side, persuading her to give up on Bluegreen Clad. Now, even Baby520 was saying the same thing.
Venus' eyes drooped, thinking of those days when the Son of Heaven was accompanying her. The Son of Heaven did treat her very well. That time, when she entered the beauty contest, Saori wanted the gang boss of the Sacred Temple to kill her and the Son of Heaven had almost wanted to go to the Sacred Temple to confront that couple. Thankfully, he was stopped by her.
In the compet.i.tion for relatives, it was also the Son of Heaven that saved her in the nick of time, allowing her to escape Motherf.u.c.ker's hara.s.sment. Later, Motherf.u.c.ker teased her repeatedly again in the wilderness and it was the Son of Heaven who helped her out of it.
She was deeply grateful to him but had never thought of getting together with him. But when she heard about the real truth about the Son of Heaven while asking around, she regretted it.
In truth, the Son of Heaven was no more than an errands boy, weathering the storms everyday outside. He aged more rapidly than others, and earned his money through the hard way.
No matter how diligent was his, he could not ensure that every customer could be his. His earnings every month fluctuated- sometimes they were high, other times low. When his earnings were low, he could only secure the base earnings.
Just like this month, the Son of Heaven told her that his sales earnings were not good. He had to run a large order outside and would not be able to play for a few days. Just as well, did he think that she would miss his company?
Lately, she had been completing missions with Son of Heaven everyday and could not help but think back on the photo that he had sent her in the past. He was just a 26-year-old man, and because he dropped out of school very early, he looked like a 36-year-old.
That sunburnt skin and unconcealable wrinkles at the corner of his eyes, unkempt hair and beard, skinny frame, and a word or two of dialects made him unacceptable to her.
Venus thought that if anyone a.s.sociated her with him, saying he was her fiance, even if it was only in the game, she would have felt disgusted.
Also, that unstable income of his, if it was only the base income, he might not even have enough for himself to spend, let alone buying things for her in the game.
Could such a Son of Heaven hold a candle up to her?
It would only be for an ulterior motive if she were to get together with the Son of Heaven. Only, she would not tell this to Baby520.
