I'm the boss of every single monster in this horror game.
After finally getting a day off, I was mistaken for a newbie by the newly updated System and kicked straight into an S-rank instance.
The three new players who joined the same round saw me in casual clothes, and their eyes lit up. A sacrificial lamb had just arrived!
The leader sauntered over with a sneer. “Hey, buddy, stick close. Don't go wetting yourself in a minute. We won't have time to rescue you.”
The live comments went wild, too:
[Hahahaha, it's over. This guy looks like he'll just be cannon fodder.]
[If he survives five minutes in an S-rank instance, I'll eat my keyboard on the spot. Screenshot this!]
At the mouth of the alley, Auntie Li was stuffing human heads into her basket. She looked up, saw me, and dropped the basket with a clatter.
I walked over and patted her shoulder, lowering my voice. “Auntie Li, I'm off today. Don't make a scene. Just carry on as usual.”
Her face turned green. She nodded frantically, fumbling to stuff the head that had fallen out back in.
The players beside us stared in disbelief.
“Are you crazy? Talking to a ghost?” the leader cursed, then turned and charged into the apartment building.
At the stairwell, a hanging ghost was on tiptoe adjusting the height of his noose. When he saw me, he froze in midair, not knowing what to do with his hands or feet.
As I walked by, I casually said, “It's too low. Raise it two inches. It won't feel comfortable otherwise.”
He nodded frantically and scrambled up to adjust it,
No cp, the above set up suspense and foreshadowing, 👍
It made me laugh so hard, my pants are a sealing device🤦
