Chapter 30: Don’t work hard but work smarter
Four weeks had passed since he had arrived on this little island.
His daily routine was to sleep, wake up, shower and brush, eat, exercise, and play games. He would also casually bathe in the hot spring, which he had also created back then.
Overall, he was very carefree, like he didn't care about anything else other than lazily relaxing.
At first, he was going to go find Edward and monitor him. But he decided to let him be for now. Because the more he interfered, the faster the story progressed. He did not want the butterfly effect to get out of hand. To the point that he would not be able to control it.
He also thought of someone named Eliza, who was going to appear next year on Outlander continent. She would appear as the successor of the Witch Emperator of Flames.
It was 8:15 p.m., and Zen was currently in the hot spring relaxing, his head tilted back and his face looking up in the sky. He was admiring the clear, starry night sky.
Back in his home, called Earth, the sky was very polluted because of the high amount of carbon dioxide.
The humans on earth were very destructive, doing things like burning fossil fuels, releasing chemicals into the atmosphere, and engaging in industrial activities that then released carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
That pretty much causes the atmosphere to thicken, blocking the stars from being seen.
Unlike this world, which uses solar energy and even mana stones as power sources. So the sky was very clear, and the captivating starry night sky can be admired by many people.
Zen had finished his bath and headed back to his small house.
He was going to message the three girls to play some games with him.
In fact, this past week he had been talking to Daphne, Celestia, and Fiona. They played games with him whenever they were free.
Daphne would often message him multiple times in a day to play some games with him. Although he found this girl annoying, he would agree once or twice since he also enjoys playing games.
Celestia and Zen talk quite often because Celestia is also a Magic Swordsman. She and Zen would often talk about somethings together.
While conversing with each other, she gained some enlightenment and was able to break through to Intermediate rank. After that, she could not help but have a good impression of Zen.
Fiona also talked to Zen about his circumstances. She would also tell him about her everyday life. Fiona had also broken through Peak Intermediate.
There was only a week left for the written test and the start of the academic year at Pontiac Academy.
These three were supposed to be part of Edward's harem, but now they were all talking to Zen. Which is such an ironic turn of events.
This was also part of Zenryx's scheme. He knew that Fiona was really important to his plans. Because of her close relationship with the two girls, she was really an important chess piece.
Zen did not even have to do much to get close to Daphne and Celestia. Both girls just came to him without even doing anything.
This was his definition of what he said back then when he just reincarnated, "not working hard and working smarter."
Which worked out perfectly for him.
Zen took out his phone, entered the group chat, and typed out something. He waited patiently for any of them to respond.
⋘ Group Chat ⋙
▼ Zenryxxx : Any of you down to play some games?
▼ Daphne : Me! Me!
▼ Fiona : Sure give me a minute. I have to shower real quick. I'm all sweaty and dirty from sparring with Marie! She did not go easy on me at all.
▼ Zenryxxx : Ok let us know once your finish showering.
▼ Celestia : Sure! I have not played any game for a long time. I think the last time I played was last year.
▼ Zenryxxx : What have you been doing?
▼ Celestia : Hmm just reading online novels to past time when I am free after training.
▼ Daphne : Hey Zen! What game do you wanna play?
'Ever since Daphne got close to Zenryx she has started calling him Zen'
▼ Zenryxxx : Daphne can you shut up for a moment. Is there anything else other than games in your brain?
▼ Daphne : Buttt you said you wanted to play a game :p
▼ Zenryxxx : Just wait for Fiona to come back.
▼ Celestia : Right?! You also have not been training recently both Fiona and me are already in Intermidiate. Zen is also in Advanced rank but we can ignore his progress. His just weird.
▼ Zenryxxx : Come on now of course I'm just that talented.
▼ Celestia : Pfff right… What a narcissist hahaha.
▼ Zenryxxx : It's called confidence :)
▼ Daphne : Hohoho who said I was slacking off. I just reached Intermidiate Rank yesterday.
▼ Celestia : Hmmm I guess you can do it when you try.
The three were all busy chatting with each other and 10 minutes have passed.
Fiona walked out of the shower, water dripping from her hair down to her slender neck. She took the towel from the rack and dried herself then proceeded to cover her body with the towel.
She took her phone and typed into the group chat.
▼ Fiona : Ok I'm finish showering let me just put my clothes.
▼ Zenryxxx : Ok we'll go ahead and wait for you in game.
They decided to play PUBG since they would be able to play as a 4 man team in this game.
Zen had also changed his in game name and stopped streaming ever since the incident last time causing him to unable to play the game.
The players all decided to go crazy just because they found out it was him.
Four of them played the game for about an hour and half with voice chat on.
After they finish another round of the game Celestia suddenly spoke out while yawning "Hey guys I'll get off now I'll be heading to sleep."
Zen replied "Ok I'll be off now too."
Fiona also said the same thing. Daphne on the other hand said "What?! It's only 11:30 pm Isn't it early?"
Celestia said "Early for you but it is late for us."
"Hey Zen play a few more with pretty pleasse" Daphne said trying to act cute.
"I'm getting off I still have plans for tommorrow" Zen replied.
They all then got off the game and went to sleep.
