I'm just an internet cafe owner

Resident Evil 7 isn't scary? That's a complete lie. No way! Even a ghost wouldn't believe that.

Under Tina's persuasion, she happily started playing Resident Evil 7. Considering the good rewards for the realistic difficulty and that she had already played the escape mode and gained some experience fighting monsters, she felt that starting a realistic mode and completely playing as Ethan to experience his perspective didn't seem like a problem.

That's how it started, but then she gradually realized that something was wrong with the game.

In the game, Ethan arrives at Durwell's farm in search of his wife. He explores the abandoned farm, passing through the storeroom and finding the prison cell, finally discovering Mia in the cell with lights on.

Mia and Yotsuya prepared to escape, but Mia disappeared halfway through. Although the journey was dark and gloomy, it was still within Yotsuya Miko's tolerance.

After Mia disappeared, she followed the sound, opened the door, and walked into the dark staircase.

For Miko Yotsuya, this level of difficulty was nothing. She had encountered countless monsters during her survival attempts, yet she still managed to escape successfully through steady and methodical means.

But as she went deeper, seeing Mia lying on the ground and the flickering lights, she had a bad feeling. She tried to run, but Mia on the ground tackled her as if she had teleported.

As Mia broke her elbow, Yotsuya Miko truly felt terrified. Especially the large intestine sashimi, her father-in-law teaching her to drive a car, and even being chased all over the house by her father-in-law while figuring out how to escape.

This terror was no less than the escape within an escape, and in Yotsuya Miko's opinion, it was even more terrifying than the escape itself, because the escape system's support gave those with particularly poor foundations more courage.

And the people there are just mentally ill; I can escape.

But what about this father-in-law? This isn't just a mental illness; he's a monster. He chases you wherever you go, and a gun? Sorry, a gun can't kill him!

Chapter 186 Miko Yotsuya Gradually Gets Familiar with Everything

The plot of Resident Evil 7 is essentially the same: finding the key indoors, battling the chainsaw with the father-in-law in the basement. It's mostly action-packed and bloody, killing a few chocolate-paste-like creatures transformed from mycelium. You retrieve the key from a corpse, throw back the super-long-lasting time bomb Lucas threw in at the cake shop, and inject the completely mutated father-in-law with the serum.

Finally, after a series of battles and killings, the mutated Evelyn is defeated, and the game is complete.

However, the story of the seventh generation is very short overall, consisting of events that happen in just one night. With the highest difficulty level activated and having gained experience in escaping and fighting with Ujinsu, Yotsuya Miko managed to complete the game without any major incidents.

This is past

As she struggled to suppress her emotions, she eventually became expressionless, and gradually came to understand everything.

So-called zombies are nothing more than chunks of flesh; if you can shoot them to death, then there's nothing to be afraid of.

Especially when facing all sorts of nagging bosses, she only had one feeling.

The corpse is talking

She discovered that any terrifying monsters that Daodao appeared would be turned into corpses within minutes by her using a pistol, shotgun, and flamethrower.

Unfortunately, due to a lack of combat experience, several mistakes, and some time wasted on puzzles, Yotsuya Miko was unable to complete the game in one day.

However, the powerful attacks in the game affected her in reality. With half an hour left before closing time, Yotsuya Miko, having completed a certain section, looked at the save machine next to her, chose to save, and exited the game.

She didn't want to suddenly log off halfway through the game, because she was worried she wouldn't be able to adjust her mindset when she logged back in the next day.

As closing time approached, Tina, having finished her day's work, looked at the remaining time and considered whether to start a game of Red Alert. There were already some Red Alert invitations on TT, and joining now might allow her to avoid peak hours and be matched with other cute players.

But as she was thinking, she turned her head and was startled by Yotsuya Miko's empty expression.

"Yotsuya? Yotsuya? Are you alright?"

"Tina?"

Yotsuya Miko asked with a somewhat vacant look in her eyes, "Didn't you say it wasn't scary...?"

"Yeah! They're all mushroom-like people that can be taken down with guns, though they're a bit bloody. Are they that scary?"

At that moment, Miko Yotsuya choked up. Then Tina leaned back on the stool, reminiscing about fighting various Gastrea and fighting alongside the protagonists of previous Resident Evil games.

"Indeed, once you get used to it, it doesn't feel as scary as those things you can see but can't touch..."

Even with the ability to erase vengeful spirits and special weapons to shoot down spirits, Yotsuya Miko felt an instinctive fear when she thought of the elusive creature and the existence that could not be defeated by ordinary means.

But she quickly rallied. The days of being unable to resist were gone; now she had a gun and that white light, and she was full of confidence.

However, she suddenly had a question. Based on what she had learned in the past few days, Resident Evil was a science-themed horror game, so why were her weapons and abilities effective against ghosts?

Upon hearing Yotsuya Miko's question, Tina seemed to remember something.

“I remember now, the boss said that Leon is a distant relative of a certain demon hunter. If demons can be hunted, then hunting ghosts and monsters with firearms in this world should also be possible. The boss also said that in many games, firearms are useful for these things. It’s just that these games haven’t been released yet.”

While Tina was explaining, she suddenly remembered something, so she opened the shop and bought a small bomb from Shubi.

"This is a bomb that Shubi put on the store. Here, take one and try it out. I feel like this thing should work on demons? After all, it's not a physical force. If we follow the theory of using magic to defeat magic, this should work."

This weapon was crafted by Shubi using spirits from her own world. These spirits aren't creatures from a fantasy setting; in Shubi's world, spirits are a form of energy. Although they possess life, they lack consciousness. Those that do become true superior races.

"How much is this? I'll pay you."

"It's free, you can have it. If it works well, just mention I recommended it when you buy it from Shubi, you'll get a discount!"

Not only are there discounts, but also rebates. Ever since playing Red Alert, Shubi has frequently crafted some strange and unusual weapons. Because she doesn't know their effects, she needs people to test them.

If you try it out before buying, Shubi will give you a discount. If the person you refer buys it, you'll also get a rebate, which isn't much but is still a nice bonus. Helping newcomers while earning a commission is a great way to earn money.

Taking the bomb, which resembled a hand grenade, Yotsuya Miko began to examine it.

"Won't this hurt ordinary people?"

"Yes, according to the description, the kill radius is about 100 square meters. It's a pure energy attack that can completely annihilate 100 cubic meters. The principle is unclear, but someone has used it and it's exactly as described."

"It won't be dangerous, will it?"

"Just don't use it on yourself or ordinary people. The kill radius is small and fixed, so you're unlikely to accidentally hurt anyone as long as there's no one around. According to you, you'll inevitably encounter those nasty guys in deserted places, right? Try using this on them then; who knows, it might work?"

"it is good!"

Yotsuya Miko nodded and put the bomb away. This was also a prototype made by Shubi, essentially a special bomb prepared to counter the special magic of the Forest Elves. It could be timed or thrown, and because its kill radius was limited, it would only neutralize the magic of the Forest Elves and would not cause too many casualties.

However, compared to the version sold to the public, Hugh's version is more powerful than the one in his own world. Adhering to the principle that firepower is justice, each version, at its maximum power, is comparable to the Sky Strike of the Skywing race.

With the internet cafe closing down, Miko Yotsuya returned to her own world.

Her world is noon.

She sneaked into the internet cafe during her lunch break, hiding in the restroom. It was thanks to the different time allocations she used online – enough for ten minutes in real life to be twelve hours in the internet cafe – that she managed to stay online for 10 minutes in real life and 12 hours in the internet cafe. Otherwise, skipping an afternoon of classes might have gotten her scolded by her mother.

As soon as she returned to the bathroom, she saw the familiar guy in the toilet bowl.

"Hey…"

Yotsuya Miko sighed and pointed her right hand at the vengeful spirit that had appeared. White light flickered on its body, and with a painful cry, the vengeful spirit vanished completely.

"Sure enough, this is a good way to burn off energy."

Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly heard a sound above her. Thinking it was another vengeful spirit, she drew her pistol and pointed it upwards. But it turned out that what was lying there was not a ghost, but a person.

She recognized this person; it was Yuria Nibutō, who had caused her trouble yesterday. She never expected her to appear here today.

Once she confirmed it was a person, she put the gun away.

What are you doing here?

"You truly are a powerful exorcist!"

Yuria Nibutō's voice trembled. She possessed incomplete Yin-Yang eyes, allowing her to see harmless vengeful spirits. She could also vaguely discern the shadowy forms of particularly powerful vengeful spirits.

Just now, she confirmed her earlier suspicions: Yotsuya Miko was indeed a powerful exorcist; she simply aimed at a shadow the size of her right hand and it vanished. She had climbed up out of curiosity to peek when she saw the shadow pass by; otherwise, she wouldn't have witnessed such an exciting scene.

Chapter 187 Bomb Curses the Spirit

Yotsuya Miko looked at the excited girl and walked straight out. But just as she stepped out the door, the door next door opened and Yuria Nigurodo came out.

It was only then that Yotsuya Miko noticed the bento box the girl was holding. Eating a bento box alone in the toilet was a symbol of loneliness in this country.

After hesitating for a long time, Yotsuya Miko extended an invitation: "Would you like to have dinner together?"

"Huh? Me? Is that okay?"

Yotsuya Miko nodded; one more person wouldn't be a problem for her and Yurikawa Hana. However, there was one thing that really interested her: could this girl also see supernatural things? And to what extent?

Yulia kept talking throughout the journey, but Yotsuya Miko didn't bother to reply. She vaguely sensed that the girl in front of her could only see things to a certain extent; if she were truly seeing the terrifying beings she knew, she definitely wouldn't be so excited.

At least...

Yotsuya Miko looked towards the playground, where a large, vengeful spirit was taking one student after another for test in the middle of the playground at midday, but unfortunately no one could see the evil spirit.

Yotsuya Miko had little motivation to deal with this evil spirit. Using the power of the Fungus Lord? She was too hungry to use it right now. A pistol? If she actually took that out, she would be 100% sure to get herself killed.

"Senior? What's wrong? Did you see something on the playground?"

"Ah."

After Yotsuya Miko agreed, she asked in return, "So, to what extent can you see?"

"To what extent?"

Is it a specific image or something else?

"I…"

She wanted to say that she could see a specific image, but when she turned her head, she found Yotsuya Miko staring at her with a terrifying look in her eyes. The aura emanating from her made her feel as if this senior had fought her way out of a mental hospital.

In some ways, her feeling wasn't wrong. Whether it was the escape or Resident Evil 7, disregarding the physical aspects, the mental state was indeed insane.

"Only blurry shadows can be seen."

"I see."

Yotsuya Miko did not ask any further questions.

"Senior, am I really useless?"

"No, I think you're very lucky. Let's go eat."

Yotsuya Miko's tone was calm yet tinged with envy. How she wished she were just an ordinary person, so she wouldn't have to be exposed to danger every day if she couldn't see these guys.

Unfortunately, there are no "what ifs" in this world. Even with some power to resist, she wouldn't dare act recklessly. The outside world is so vast that if she went on a killing spree, she would definitely be locked up as a mentally ill person.

Therefore, she had only one goal: to keep these terrifying creatures away from her home, so she could take a peaceful bath and sleep soundly. At the same time, she realized her abilities were still somewhat lacking. If she could, she wished she could grow strong enough to resist multiple ghosts approaching her on the street, or even make them run away at the sight of her?

She knew it was possible, but it would cost money.

"Money, money..."

The thought of money completely erased my feelings of envy.

Upon reaching the rooftop, Yotsuya Miko fell silent upon seeing her friend's condition. A demon with only arms was clinging to Yurikawa Hana's body. Her friend was brimming with life force, which was being steadily drained by the demon.

"This should be able to protect people, right..."

Yotsuya Miko took out a hair clip, something that would allow her to surf the internet without worry for a long time if she sold it, but she couldn't bear to sell it because of Liu Yuan's legend. Now that she has the ability to exorcise ghosts, the most important reason for keeping it is for her friend.

"Xiaohua, I have a gift for you."
