Blurb:
On Shen Rao's eighteenth birthday, he received a splendid gift from his best friend.
It was supposedly the hottest full-immersion game around, with a wide variety of characters, an intricate plot, and an ultra-realistic 1v1 experience.
His friend had even included a note: You're an adult now. Time to explore the grown-up world.
*
On his very first day in the grown-up world, Shen Rao fell into the arms of a handsome demon NPC.
The demon NPC was aloof, handsome, and had a perfectly sculpted six-pack.
Looking at the hand he'd accidentally placed on the man's sexy V-line, Shen Rao gasped. The grown-up world was this exciting!
*
Even so, Shen Rao planned to hold fast to his principles in the grown-up world.
Even though this NPC was exactly his type.
Even though the adult game scenarios were right up his alley.
Even though the atmosphere between them was practically bursting with pink hearts.
Even though... screw it, who cares!
His principles shattered. Since he was in an adult game, Shen Rao was especially bold.
He tried everything, from elves to succubi to cat ears.
There was just one thing that seemed off. The NPC always liked to say strange things to Shen Rao, such as:
"How about we meet when you get out?"
"Baby, I like you so much. How about I come find you when I get out?"
Apart from that, everything was practically perfect.
*
Shen Rao didn't take it seriously at all. Two months after quitting the game, just as he'd decided to forget the whole experience,
he opened his dorm room door on his first day at university and saw the NPC standing there.
The NPC smiled. "Long time no see."
Shen Rao: ?
You actually got out, you little punk??
A fluffy little comedy of misunderstandings: I thought we were dating, but you thought I wasn't human.
