[The King's Avatar] No Idea. They Said They'd Pay More, So I Came

Wen Yihe is an unremarkable esports commentator, famous in the Glory scene for losing pay over verbal slips.

She used to be a pro player, but retired before player salaries improved.

She also worked as a professional commentator, but deductions for her verbal slips ate up nearly half her salary.

Wen Yihe: What else can I do? I'll just make do.

Then one day, an old rival who had also retired sent her a private message, asking if she could come work as a tactical coach. He would help her win another championship.

A championship? If she'd wanted one, she would have already returned to esports to chase her dream.

So Wen Yihe replied with a firm "No."

The other person stayed silent for ten minutes, then offered something more tempting: triple the salary.

Looking at her long list of deductions, Wen Yihe fell silent too.

If it paid triple, she had to see if it was worth a try!

But a month after being dragged aboard this pirate ship, Wen Yihe let out her first cry of despair: If only I'd known, I wouldn't have taken money from a fellow pauper!
