บท 9: Chapter 9: Marry Me
"It's a wonderful day, let the simulation begin! Only 15 points left to repay the loan of 110 points, let's get started!"
Lu Yu had 95 points remaining, and he needed 15 more points to reach the 110-point repayment threshold. In theory, he could continue with a grand plan, but today, he wanted to try the random system, so he decided to start the simulation.
[Simulation begins]
[Talent selection phase: Each simulation will randomly present 1-6 talents of varying quality. The host can choose 1-3 of them.]
[Innate: Passionate Eloquence (3 stars): Your words easily sway others.]
[1: Silver Spirit (1 star): Lost the golden spirit, you're left with nothing but shamelessness.]
[2: Impulsive Spectator (2 stars): You are easily moved by others' words, but your actions become powerful in those moments.]
[3: Street Writer (2 stars): You have decent ideas but poor writing skills. It's recommended to give up!]
[4: One Coin (4 stars): Hey, friend, have you seen the movie "Ready Player One"? It allows you to resurrect!]
[5: Quick-tempered (1 star): Do you have any manners? Why are you shouting so loudly!]
Lu Yu: "...."
"No way, this simulation system won't be any fun if it keeps giving me a bunch of silly talents. I'll never achieve a good outcome in this lifetime with this!"
[The refresh of talents is influenced by the host's comprehensive attributes. In line with our commitment to never deceive the host, we will now disclose the probabilities of the host obtaining various talents. Please refrain from insulting the system casually!]
[The probability of the host obtaining 1-star talents is 43.18%, 2-star talents is 37.17%, 3-star talents is 14.19%, 4-star talents is 5.3%, 5-star talents is 0.1599%, and the probability of obtaining dream talents is 0.0001%.]
"Comprehensive attributes? Did I have attributes before? Where can I see them?"
[The host has a personal attribute panel, which can be viewed at any time upon request.]
"Alright, let me see what attributes I have."
[Name: Lu Yu (22 years old)]
[Current Identity: Human (Chaotic Good)]
[Attributes: Strength 6, Constitution 7, Spirit 10, Luck 4]
[Current Simulation Statistics: Total simulations 5, Achieved endings 1]
[Comprehensive Evaluation: You have insulted the name of a gentleman.]
"How can I improve my attributes?"
Lu Yu grasped the key issue. The system had just informed him that talents' appearance would be influenced by his attributes. Therefore, his top priority now should be to improve his attributes.
[Attributes will be upgraded after each completed simulation.]
"Why didn't my previous simulations improve my attributes?"
[Only simulations with interactions will provide attribute rewards. Without personal effort, how can one expect improvement? This system strongly disdains freeloaders and advises the host to work hard for his own progress!]
"I understand."
The meager outcomes from the previous simulations were not Lu Yu's merit. To genuinely improve, he needed to actively involve himself in events and rely on his own efforts to change the course of the simulation and earn attribute upgrades.
"What about the dream talents?"
He had experienced a 5-star talent once, and he knew how extraordinary its effects were. If a 5-star talent was already that incredible, then a dream talent...
[The host's abilities are insufficient, and he cannot obtain dream talents at present. The displayed probability is to prevent the host from accusing the system of falsehood. In reality, based on the host's current situation, dream talents are not attainable.]
[System's friendly reminder: Come back to try for the advanced talents in the future!]
"Alright, understood. Let's go. I'll choose one innate talent and one Street Writer."
Lu Yu didn't choose the Impulsive Spectator talent. It seemed too dangerous and easily manipulated by others. This obvious drawback made it not even worth considering.
[Due to the host's inability to achieve any outcome in the previous simulation, this current simulation script is locked as yesterday's script. The host is advised to carefully choose key options based on the talents and face death reasonably.]
[Simulation officially begins.]
[Age 1: You were born into an ordinary family. During the tradition of "Grabbing Objects," you held a pen, which delighted your family, believing you would become a great writer in the future!]
[Age 3: You had a rich imagination. Your stick figures on paper resembled ancient gods, but your parents were still delighted.]
[Age 5: In kindergarten, you were no different from other kids. You were mischievous, but other kids liked to play with you.]
[Age 7: You started primary school, where your eloquence and rich imagination made you the center of attention.]
[Age 8: You noticed a purple-haired girl in your class, ostracized by other classmates due to her background. She used to be well-liked, but after her father's imprisonment, that turned into exclusion. What will you do when facing this little girl?]
[Speak out against the classmates: Is it right for you all to bully others at this age?]
[Ignore completely: Sorry, that's not my intention. I don't know what's going on~]
This choice was different from the last time, but now that he had attributes, Lu Yu knew why his choices were different. In reality, any choice was based on his attributes, starting with the innate talent he chose and his growth at each age, all of which would increase specific attributes. When faced with an event, attribute checks would be conducted.
For example, in his scumbag life, he could choose to directly beat up his classmates due to his Strength and Agility A talents. But today, since he hadn't received any strength increase, he could only resort to using his words.
Lu Yu chose to speak out against the classmates.
[You sternly criticized the classmates who were bullying the girl, but they ignored it and continued to bully her. Your actions led to even worse ostracization of the girl in the class.]
"This is the result of inadequate abilities. Should I try an intervention?"
After pondering for a while, Lu Yu gave up on intervening here. There was only one chance per simulation, and he believed he should make a big impact later.
[Age 9: Unaware that the girl was still being bullied, the kind-hearted purple-haired girl didn't tell you about it. Although you tried your best to help, the girl was grateful for your assistance, and you became friends.]
Wow, Raiden Mei, are you an angel?
[Age 11: After becoming friends with the purple-haired girl, as you grew older, your classmates gradually gave up on bullying her.]
[Age 12: You graduated with the purple-haired girl. Fortunately, you both entered the same junior high school.]
[Age 14: Your excellent writing skills, rich imagination, and essays received praise from teachers.]
[Age 15: You began writing stories with the purple-haired girl as the protagonist because you believed such a beautiful person should be a novel's female lead.]
[Age 16: You messed up your college entrance examination because you treated the essay as a novel. As a result, you could only attend a less prestigious university. One day after the exam, you arranged to meet the purple-haired girl. What do you want to say to her?]
[Invite her to your less prestigious university: How about we both attend the same university together?!]
[Wishing her well: I'll attend a less prestigious university, and you'll go to a top-notch one; we both have a bright future!]
"If I choose option 1, kind-hearted Raiden Mei might agree. But since I bear the name of a gentleman, I must choose option 2."
[You wished the purple-haired girl well, placing your unfinished novel in her hands before leaving.]
[Age 17: You enrolled in a less prestigious university.]
[Age 19: You accidentally submitted a manuscript to a website and surprisingly got a publishing contract. You started fantasizing about becoming a novelist.]
[Age 22: You graduated and ended up in a dead-end job at a factory.]
[Age 25: Your encouragement of colleagues to complain about the boss was discovered, and you were fired.]
[Age 26: While walking on the street, you encountered the now-adult purple-haired woman. She had become a high-ranking executive at a company and, seeing your desperate situation, invited you to be a security guard in her company. Will you accept?]
[Accept: I'll take it as a way to make a living~]
[Decline: What's the point of being a security guard? I'd rather sit on your lap!]
"I'll accept."
[You accepted the purple-haired woman's invitation and became a security guard in her company.]
[Age 27: A group of Honkai Beasts attacked your company. While everyone else panicked and fled, you remembered the purple-haired woman. Her office was on the top floor, and you had to rescue her. However, when you arrived, the purple-haired woman looked different. She wielded a Long Katana, and the Honkai beasts bowed to her in worship. The woman's identity as a Herrscher was exposed. Faced with this terrifying sight, you chose to escape.]
"I was curious why there weren't any sudden plot changes. It seems like it's because I didn't meet her during my previous simulation at age 26. But this time, I've got her; it's time for a random entry!"
[Random entry time locked, begin random entry.]
A flash of light, and Lu Yu found himself in a room. It was an ordinary independent office, with overturned tables and chairs indicating that something had happened. And there, standing in front of him, was Raiden Mei with devil horns on her head.
"Why are you here?"
Something was wrong with her attitude and tone! This couldn't be the normal Raiden Mei. It was because of partial Herrscherization that her personality had changed?
Raiden Mei's cold gaze fixed on Lu Yu.
"I..."
Lu Yu didn't have a chance to speak before Raiden Mei's sword hovered above his neck. As he guessed, her first Herrscherization, though incomplete, had affected her personality. Fortunately, her inherent kindness kept her from killing him as a mere ordinary person. But it was only a moment's hesitation; if she had to do it, she would.
The sword slowly descended!
What the heck? Is the difficulty of random entry this high? No wonder he wanted to run away in the simulator. But... the people in the simulator weren't Lu Yu himself.
Once he accepted the fact that he wouldn't die even if he died in the simulator, Lu Yu became invincible!
"Wait! I have something to say! Just one thing!"
"Oh?"
Hearing Lu Yu's words, Raiden Mei's sword stopped above his neck. She wanted to know what the man had to say.
"Miss Mei. You are the protagonist of my first novel."
After saying this, seeing Raiden Mei's slightly impatient expression, Lu Yu decided to go all out!
"Mei, I like you, from a long time ago. Although this situation isn't appropriate, please listen to my confession!"
"Mei, I love you. Marry me!"
Raiden Mei: "????"
What's up with this guy? He suddenly confessed to me? Should I...
Before she could react to the man's words, Raiden Mei felt a wave of energy rushing toward her.
A mischievous smile appeared on Lu Yu's lips; he succeeded!
Lu Yu's lips met Raiden Mei's. Surprised, Raiden Mei instinctively tried to escape, but Lu Yu was prepared and firmly held onto his prey.
Their lips touched, eyes met.
It was sweet, like nectar. The feeling was akin to touching scented jelly. At this moment, Lu Yu sublimated; he felt like he was enveloped in cotton candy. Seizing the opportunity while the other party wasn't paying attention, the pink pudding found its way to its battlefield—it launched an assault and found its opponent!
The puddings touched each other gently, tenderly.
In the first second, their lips were tightly pressed together.
Five seconds later, a sharp sword pierced Lu Yu's heart.
The tremendous pain of death and the softness of the lips enveloped Lu Yu simultaneously.
This life was worth it!
