I'm just an internet cafe owner

Then Chelsea, being a newbie, got completely destroyed. She was tower-dived at level four and then killed by Zed's ultimate at level six. And then? Nothing more. Fifteen minutes later, the game ended.

The game score was a staggering 1:16, with all gold and all turrets gone. As for that one kill, it was a 1v1 solo kill by Jibril against Vayne in the jungle. After that, the opposing team relentlessly targeted Jibril, who continued to solo, ultimately contributing eight kills on her own.

After the match ended, Liu Yuan calmly opened a can of cola and started drinking.

"How are you all feeling?"

Kisara said expressionlessly, "Too strong. Whether it's combat skills or combat awareness, the opponent is top-notch. Under the power suppression, the opponent completely overwhelmed me. This character is probably much stronger than me to begin with."

In the game, aside from the skills that are locked by the system and require upgrading, she can use all combat techniques. However, at level one, she won once by recklessly charging in. Afterward, she discovered that her opponent could precisely dodge every attack she made, but would seize the opportunity to exploit any openings she made when her skills were interrupted or she was distracted.

In pure weapon duels, while one's skill may be superior, a severe lack of strength leads to defeat. Losing in lane control also results in losses, as does losing with teammate support.

There was nothing they could do; Liu Yuan was playing a carry-heavy character, and he was just there to coast, so the jungle role was practically nonexistent. But then again, even if Liu Yuan hadn't coasted, the outcome wouldn't have been much different. Their side, including Jibril and Kisara, had at most three capable players, while the opposing team had five all-around players with exceptional macro-level control.

There's only one way to win: everyone needs to have a good overall understanding of the game and their individual combat skills must be on par with the opposing heroes. Otherwise, against this level of AI, if even one player on the team falters, they're guaranteed to lose.

As for the highest level of difficulty, it's not about achieving a draw; it's about calculating every single detail without missing anything.

Yuna Takashima simply waved her hand and said, "I feel that all my actions were within their expectations."

Jibril clutched her chest: "I can't accept this! I can't accept this! Why did this happen!"

Liu Yuan patted her shoulder to comfort her, saying, "Because I'm a score-farming monster! With me around, you guys can forget about winning."

"Damn it!!!"

Chelsea was stunned; her confidence vanished in an instant. Unlike the others, she was completely dumbfounded.

"Newbie, don't be upset. If you really like that character, you can practice against the AI ​​more often. Once you've mastered the skill, you can even learn it in real life."

"What? Really?"

"Of course! If you're playing a character in a game, you'll gradually master their skills as your proficiency increases. But don't even think about combat techniques; you can only improve them through your own battles."

"it is good!"

Chelsea didn't say much; she had already made her decision.

She felt that if she could master Zed's skills and combine them with her Gaia Foundation, she would be able to successfully assassinate even special beings like Black Eyes in future assassination missions.

After playing a game together, Chelsea's nervousness gradually disappeared. During the game, everyone blamed each other and discussed combat strategies. Although they were bad at the game and lost, the sense of defeat and the joy of playing games with their companions were imprinted in Chelsea's memory.

Furthermore, she also learned something from the game: the proportion of time spent at work is different from that in real life, so there wouldn't be too much of a delay. If her basic work was up to standard, she could go home after get off work.

Overall, she's not bad, and besides, she's not stupid. Her dream is to correct this distorted world with her own hands. Gaia Foundation only allows her to disguise herself, but this Shadow Master ability is what she truly feels is the real power.

This will enable her to truly fight against the forces of darkness.

Thinking of this, she took out Gaia Foundation and instantly transformed into Zed, the Master of Shadows.

"The invisible blade is the most deadly!"

This sudden transformation stunned everyone, but Liu Yuan reacted very quickly: "Okay! But I think you need to change your lines."

What lines?

The girl asked in a puzzled voice, her voice completely different from Jie's.

"You should now say, 'The most lethal form of showing off is the subtle kind.'"

"... "

Chelsea reverted to her original form and looked at Liu Yuan with a sullen expression: "Boss, you're so boring. No girl will like you."

Liu Yuan, however, fell into deeper thought: "Women of the opposite sex will only affect my game progress..."

At that moment, everyone fell into deep thought.

Kisara: "In some ways... the boss is right..."

Jibril: "Well, I don't know how to refute that."

Yuna Takashima: "I feel that the boss is most likely to spend his whole life with games."

Kigenie knew Liu Yuan's preferences because Liu Yuan had said he liked big ones. Wait, Kigenie suddenly realized something and looked at Chelsea, while Chelsea, who had become Zed, also looked at Kigenie with curiosity.

At this moment, Mu Geng had a bold idea to make Liu Yuan obediently submit.

Chapter 165 Newcomers, New Daily Life (Additional update)

Kisara, a veteran of the internet cafe, had naturally heard some important information from Liu Yuan since he spent his days joking and teasing him.

For example, Liu Yuan might choose a size that is no smaller than what is possible because he is afraid of making mistakes.

Originally, she had no chance to fight back, but...

"Hey hey hey!"

"Hey you big dummy, are you coming or not? This time I'm setting up two hard AI opponents and three legendary AI opponents, wanna come?"

"Come!"

Kisara didn't think much of it and started the game again.

This time Liu Yuan got serious, but he still didn't choose to import data. Instead, he picked a hero that didn't seem to have much use in the game: Master Yi.

Because all actions in the game depend entirely on the player's skill, if you're not skilled enough, you can use third-person mouse and keyboard controls. If you're confident in your skills, you can become a swordsman and unleash a massacre.

They did win this game. Liu Yuan didn't slack off. He ganked the top lane and got the first blood. He soloed the enemy Piltover Enforcer in the jungle and easily took him down without the enemy hitting him at all.

In the bot lane, Jibril went into overdrive, getting one kill after another with the help of Yuna Takashima's Blitzcrank. Then in the mid lane… Chelsea's Zed versus Faker's Zed, and once again, the mid laner was getting completely destroyed.

However, it wasn't a big problem. Except for the top and mid lanes, the other lanes were all wiped out. And the top laner, Kisara, once again took on the Sword Demon. She is the Queen of Elden! One of the successors of the Drunken Sword Immortal. After she started to take it seriously and figured out the opponent's strategy, although she couldn't get a kill, she could still manage a one-for-one trade.

They played like that until dawn. With an hour left before the shop opened, Liu Yuan called a halt to the five-person internet cafe game.

That night, aside from winning the second and third games steadily, everyone got a little overconfident in the following games and copied the same lineup from the first game. As a result, they lost every game because the mid laner and jungler collapsed.

Actually, you can't blame Liu Yuan for being a jungler; his operational skills are far inferior to those of the opposing jungler.

As we all know, in these kinds of games, if the mid laner gets completely destroyed and the jungler gets caught out by the enemy's tempo, and the other lanes can't gain an advantage, then there's only one outcome: a complete collapse across all lanes.

However, as the number of matches increased, they dragged out the game longer and longer. At least in the last match, they played a game that lasted an hour, and they were getting closer and closer to winning.

"That's interesting, boss, shall we continue tonight?"

"Watching you and Aatrox just scratching each other in the top lane?"

The two bickered as they tidied up. While taking inventory, Takashima Yuna also gave Chelsea some pointers. Meanwhile, Kokichi returned to the main store, where she didn't currently have much work to do.

It's nothing more than giving a brief explanation of a new game. If she encounters something difficult, she'll call on Liu Yuan for help. As long as Liu Yuan isn't busy, he can arrive in half a minute.

Chelsea is very intelligent. Although she is not strong in combat as an assassin, she is very observant and has a high level of emotional intelligence in order to avoid being discovered.

After listening attentively to the work section and taking careful notes, she took out the Gaia foundation.

"Excuse me, may I change to a different appearance? I'm worried that having people in my world might affect my future plans."

Okay~

Yuna Takashima nodded in agreement, because the most important reason for signing her instead of Kurome was that she could transform.

In the blink of an eye, Chelsea's image transformed into a blonde, blue-eyed maid. Her perfect figure paired with the maid outfit is absolutely stunning, and coupled with her gorgeous appearance after the transformation, it's estimated that no one could resist her charm.

However, looking at this appearance, Liu Yuan shook his head: "Too good-looking, no way. And too big either. If it's your own talent, I won't stop you, but if you transform into a suitable size and have a good but not outstanding appearance, it will give customers a refreshing feeling but they won't stare at you for a long time."

At Liu Yuan's suggestion, Chelsea's appearance changed somewhat. Her maid outfit remained the same, but the size became average. Her appearance was also as Liu Yuan had said: very pretty, but not in a way that made her seem innocent yet not so striking as to draw excessive attention.

Finish

Having accomplished this, Takashima Yuna continued instructing the next steps. Kisara, however, asked quietly, "Boss, didn't you like big ones? Why do you want small ones too?"

"I prefer things that are all-natural..."

"... "

Kisara choked, one sentence ruined all her plans.

At exactly eight o'clock, the internet cafe opened for business.

The first person to enter today was Yosuke Shimazaki. As Chelsea greeted him with a "Welcome," he subconsciously looked up.

"Huh? A new network administrator? Where's Ms. Kisara?"

Kisara, standing behind, stood up and waved: "Here you are~"

"Oh! Miss Kisara is still here."

As soon as he said that, the elf beside him asked with a hint of jealousy, "Do you like Kosei?"

"No, it's just that I find her more pleasing to the eye."

Chelsea's expression froze at those words. She silently cursed her for lacking emotional intelligence before introducing the game, "Esteemed customer, we have a new competitive game in stock today..."

"Competitive games? No interest."

Yosuke Shimazaki is a staunch single-player gamer. He can accept playing in a team in single-player mode, but he absolutely refuses to play purely competitive games because he knows he's not good at them.

Chelsea was turned away, but it wasn't a big deal; the next guests, Spider Girl and Yoshida Saki, refused. Her recommendation didn't resonate with them, though Tanjiro was eager to try it.

He's recently hit a roadblock in his battles with demons, and he really wants to spar with a real person.

The Magical Girl Five Colors Team was even more interested; they were happy to accept a competitive game that five people could play together. Tatsumi's situation was more complicated. Although he had completed the Terraria walkthrough, he hadn't finished the Red Alert walkthrough yet. In order to build the mobile construction vehicle, he decided to focus all his energy on Red Alert for the time being.

The results were excellent. At least for the first twenty levels of the Epsilon Era, he created foolproof walkthroughs. As long as you followed the steps in the walkthrough, you were guaranteed to pass that level.

There isn't much work at the internet cafe. When new games are available, recommend them to the older customers. When new customers come in, try to attract them. Generally, two people are the most suitable: one guides the customer to state their purpose, and the other recommends games based on that purpose.

Unfortunately, there were no new customers today.

Besides these, they also helped answer questions for the guests. Since Chelsea was new and didn't know much, Takashima Yuna answered her questions. Liu Yuan and Kisara would chat with regular guests from time to time, and if there were any Easter eggs or hidden items near the other person's progress in the game, Liu Yuan and Kisara would also give them pointers based on the other person's personality.

And so, Chelsea's first day at work came to an end.

But tonight, she chose not to stay, but to return to her own world. She had been away for too long; she needed to go back and report on the completion of her mission.

However, before leaving, Yuna Takashima stopped her: "Just tell her you killed that little girl named Kurohime."

"Hey?"

"Believe me, she will never appear again."

"Ok!"

Chelsea nodded. She trusted Yuna Takashima because she had found her to be a truly kind person during their day together. Yuna was willing to answer all questions, helpful to anyone in need, and most importantly, younger than herself and incredibly cute.

I was initially a little scared because of the other party's strength, but after getting to know them, I liked them very much.
