Miss Player, please don't cast spells on me.

There are also AI core fans in this world, who are simply players who like a certain AI. For example, a small group of core fans of the Xia Nuoer AI have already gathered in the group 'Where did Xia Nuoer go?'

These past few days, their most common comments in the group have been...

“No matter which game Saint Shanor is reincarnated into in the future, I will follow him until the end of my life!” and similar statements.

The character of Shanor has gradually amassed a core fanbase, which is indeed good news for Qingye Hui.

Furthermore, Kiyono Hai does indeed intend to continue Shanor's storyline in the next "performance".

However, this does not mean that Qingye Hui will only play the role of Xia Nuoer in the future.

Because the requirements for each "performance" are different.

Perhaps the next performance will require drawing upon the hatred of players to gain faith power, or the performance after that will require instigating wars between players to plunder each other and gain faith power.

In short, the requirements for the stage roles in "performance" are so numerous that it is impossible for Qingye Hui to dominate the scene with just the role of Xia Nuoer. Forcing it would ruin Xia Nuoer's character design.

"In short, for now, we should try our best to win the favor of more rich women. Who knows, no matter where we go in Tokyo, a rich woman might adopt us?"

Kiyono closed his eyes and focused his attention on... a Shanor who was in the first playthrough stage.

The player guest that Shanor was receiving was also a wealthy woman, a truly wealthy woman.

62. ID Caihua, what is the estimated maximum value of Faith Power that can be obtained?

The power of faith emanating from her is not just a question mark; every time Kiyono Hai glimpses her playing games, she is wearing a kimono that doesn't look cheap.

The landscape behind her also resembled that of an old mansion or courtyard.

They look like a wealthy family from Kyoto.

This female player named Caihua truly treated Xia Nuoer like a son, and showed absolutely no intention of dating him.

In her first playthrough, the things she did most were buying clothes and repairing houses for Xia Nuoer, and then sponsoring Xia Nuoer to complete her studies.

The most outrageous one is this Ms. Caihua. She even goes so far as to arrange blind dates for Xia Nuoer at school, looking for suitable women of marriageable age for him, and then trying to find him a wife.

Ms. Ayaka herself appears to be over forty years old, and her appearance and demeanor are those of a typical Yamato Nadeshiko woman.

She is also a true hardcore mom-type player.

Compared to Iori Sakai, who said she raised Shanor as a son...

But the kind of player who would ruthlessly push their son onto the bed late at night is on a whole different level.

All Qingye Hui needs to do is let Xia Nuoer be a normal, well-behaved student.

Go to class on time, report your grades to her after class, and occasionally go on blind dates with Ms. Caihua.

Although Kiyono Gray only earned five or six points of faith power from her, the accumulated amount over a day was not small, and more importantly, it was stable and inexhaustible.

Chapter 29 Dragged into the Abyss Named Shanor

Just today, when Kiyono Hai planned to act like a good boy in front of Ms. Ayaka, as usual...

Ms. Ayaka's game character standing outside the cabin gave Kiyono Hai an extremely strange feeling.

“I knew my sister was prone to getting caught up in characters like you, Xia Nuoer.”

Ms. Ayaka's character in the game is also a middle-aged woman wearing a kimono, but at this moment, she is holding her arms and sighing as she watches Kiyono Hai walk out of the wooden house.

At the same time, the voice she was speaking was also a man's voice.

Kiyono immediately peered through the screen behind the character and saw the appearance of the player who was controlling the character.

He was a man with stubble, who looked to be in his forties and had a very rugged appearance.

"who are you?"

Shanor's expression instantly turned cold, and at the same time, terrifying magical fluctuations began to accumulate in his hands.

"According to your understanding, Mr. Shanor, I am the younger brother of the player you serve."

"Don't get excited, don't get excited! I don't mean any harm, I just want to have a fight with you," he said.

Kiyono Haiya instantly recognized his true identity from the change in the ID above the game character's head.

62. ID Shattered Head - Hao Lan, estimated maximum value of Faith Power gained?

This ID indicates that this man, like the one Qingye Hui encountered before, is a top-tier skilled player belonging to a PK fanatic organization.

After encountering Owlface last time, Qingye Hui even went to look up information about that player organization.

The organization they belong to is called the 'Fighter Tea Party,' which Kiyono Hai will simply refer to as the Tea Party.

Tea parties are an organization that is highly respected by players.

Because they are not only a group of PK fanatics, but also active in strategy and speedrun communities for various games.

They are basically one of the highest-caliber player groups in the country.

"I created a young girl character on my own account before, and it took me almost half a day to finally meet you in my first playthrough."

"You ran away as soon as I mentioned fighting, so this time I had to use my sister's account to challenge you to a fight."

The player, nicknamed Hao Lan, scratched his head somewhat awkwardly and said...

"You can't run away this time, can you? Shanor!"

Why do you think I ran away?

Kiyono Gray realized that ever since she was caught and tortured by Owlface last time, she had been in a bad mood.

The entire tea party seemed to have their eyes on Shanor, a hidden boss who, despite being an otome game, possessed incredible combat power.

They would stop at nothing to fight Shanor.

This Mr. Hao Lan even used a voice changer when building that little girl ship.

If it weren't for Qingye Hui's ability to see the player's true appearance, he might have actually been fooled by the sweet, childlike voice he used after changing his voice!

This time, Xia Nuoer really can't escape, but Uncle Hao Lan, you seem to be in danger too.

Kiyono looked behind the screen and saw that the account owner, Ms. Ayaka, had somehow appeared behind her younger brother, Haolan.

Ms. Caihua's expression was terrifying; she had a strand of hair between her teeth and was holding a kitchen knife—a perfect image of a female ghost.

"You brat... what are you trying to do to my child?!"

After shouting these words in an extremely terrifying tone, Ms. Caihua immediately raised the kitchen knife in her hand and stabbed her stupid younger brother.

"Big sister! Wait, wait! I just wanted to have a match with your Xia Nuoer! Put the knife down! Can you please put the knife down?"

Kiyono watched as the once imposing Uncle Haolan was now being chased all over the house by his older sister wielding a kitchen knife.

During this time, Ms. Caihua also shouted things like, "Don't touch my Chanor with your dirty hands!"

Kiyono felt that if he didn't speak up at this moment, someone might die, so...

“Sister Caihua, I think I can have a match with your cousin, but there is one condition.”

Kiyono raised his voice to make sure the sound coming from the speakers was audible to the two people in the real world.

Hao Lan, as if grasping at a straw, quickly rolled to the speakers and moved the image of Xia Nuoer on the computer screen in front of his sister, only then stopping Ms. Caihua's crazy actions.

"Sister Caihua, you don't need to worry about me getting hurt. It's just a friendly match."

In this timeline, Shanor has been cultivated to be quite confident by Ms. Caihua.

After all, she's been on several blind dates, so it wouldn't make sense for her to be socially anxious.

Upon hearing Xia Nuoer's request, Ms. Caihua sighed softly, put down the kitchen knife in her hand, and looked at her younger brother with the eyes of someone looking at trash.

“You heard what that child said, you should know what to do next.”

"Yes Yes…"

Although Hao Lan was just going through the motions, he excitedly took out his own mouse and keyboard and switched with them.

Then, as he had hoped, the duel with Shanor began.

Kiyono Hai did not slack off at all in his battle with this Uncle Hao Lan. It was supposed to be a friendly match, but the fight was a different story.

After exchanging dozens of blows with Xia Nuoer, Hao Lan quickly realized that Xia Nuoer was indeed living up to his reputation!

The phrase "deserves its reputation" doesn't refer to Xia Nuo'er's strength, but rather to the undeniably exhilarating experience of fighting her.

Many game developers, or rather, many "gods" in this context, are playing the role of the BOSS...

Most actors who portray gods will add a bunch of annoying bullet-hell skills to the BOSS they are playing, such as full-screen magic beams, full-map magic orbs, and area-of-effect explosions.

This ability looks extremely cool and also has a lot of intimidating power as a BOSS.

However, for top players like Hao Lan, these kinds of bosses are very boring to fight because there is absolutely no sense of interaction.

It's pretty much like waiting for you to unleash a wave of skills before I rush in and land a couple more hits.

But Hao Lan's experience fighting against Xia Nuoer was completely different; it was the other extreme...

The experience of fighting against Shanor is incredibly interactive. Qingye Hui doesn't use any magic abilities; he just beats you down with punches and blows until you give up!

Game theory!

Hao Lan felt an endless game of strategy in his confrontation with Xia Nuoer.

He needed to be constantly aware of what Shanor's next move would be, how to block it, and after blocking it, he needed to consider what move to use to counterattack. Once he launched his counterattack, he needed to think about how to change his move so that Shanor wouldn't block it.

This layered, multi-layered game of strategy brings with it a hundredfold increase in operational difficulty and precision requirements.

But Hao Lan fought with great enthusiasm, and almost immediately after his encounter with Shanor, he entered a state called 'ZONE'.

This is the state of total concentration that all athletes and players around the world dream of entering. In this state, adrenaline surges and a mentally exhilarating feeling is addictive.

Unfortunately, Hao Lan hadn't even had a chance to savor this addictive state for long... Xia Nuoer instantly jumped back and raised her hand to make a 'stop' gesture.

"After all, this is Sister Caihua's body. If we continue to hit her, she will get hurt."

Kiyono Hai's reason was, of course, just an excuse; the key point was...

"Furthermore, player, I previously stated that if you wish to compete with me, you would need to grant me a small request, right?"

"What conditions?"

Hao Lan didn't treat Xia Nuoer as a game NPC; he had long regarded these AINPs as real people.

"As you can see, my mission in life is to meet players and fall in love with them in various ways. Whether I like her or she likes me, I will do everything I can to let players experience the feeling of love."
