I'm just an internet cafe owner

Right now, the only person in the entire new store besides the staff is Shin, who is currently studying technology in the Red Alert world. Who knows how Leticia managed to fool him? This guy keeps buying more and more games, and it's become a series.

Mu Geng, lying next to Liu Yuan, complained, "Boss, is there something wrong with the location of your store? It's been several days and you've only had one new employee?"

"That can't be right! Maybe it's just bad luck?"

Leticia then brought over two cups of tea: "Perhaps the shop hasn't been advertised yet, would you like some tea?"

"drink!"

"+1!"

Liu Yuan felt that the employees he had hired this time were really great. Not only were they capable, but they were also good at handling things. He hadn't been able to help out at the branch these past few days, and instead, Leticia had pampered him and made him feel that if he continued to be so lazy, he would be a dead boss.

Just as he was reflecting on this, the door to the store was pushed open.

"Where is this place?"

The person who pushed open the door was a young man. He was not old, but his strong muscles proved his formidable strength.

Leticia greeted them immediately: "Hello, this is the 4D Space Internet Cafe. Here you can get anything you want."

"I want power!"

The young man named Baki Hanma looked at Leticia with determination: "I want to become stronger, strong enough to defeat that person."

"Um…"

Leticia hesitated. Through the network administrator's auxiliary system, he learned about the situation in this world. This world was a world primarily based on combat. There were no flashy superpowers, only muscles and brutal, visceral punches.

But do internet cafes have games that can satisfy his desires? Sett from League of Legends? Or perhaps…

While she was thinking, Liu Yuan stood up and recommended, "There really is something that would suit you, but I want to ask, are you able to handle it?"

"I?"

Baki didn't speak, but his aura told Liu Yuan what he was thinking.

Baki could sense the terror of the room. The three people in front of him looked thin, but they seemed to possess immense strength. His own strength was like an ant facing an elephant. Even if he could lift ten times his own weight, he could only pray to the heavens when faced with an elephant's kick.

But it doesn't matter. What he needs is power, the power to defeat Yujiro Hanma.

He disdains all external forces; like his father, he trusts only his own muscles.

Liu Yuan sensed the imposing aura emanating from him and pressed down on his shoulder: "Your muscles are strong, but unfortunately, you're training with brute force."

"what?"

At that moment, Baki felt as if his body was being crushed by a mountain. His intuition told him that the man in front of him had not used any special power, but had only suppressed him through the power of his muscles.

This man's aura was so terrifying; the man before him seemed to have slain all gods, Buddhas, demons, and monsters.

What should I do?

"First, get dressed, then sit down. I'll recommend some 'games' for you."

Liu Yuan sat down in front of the computer, holding Baki's hand, and turned on the computer to select a game that no one expected, and started beating up the kids.

"you!!"

The game's name made Baki feel insulted. He knew his weakness when facing strong opponents, but when faced with insults, he would strike back with all his might no matter what.

However, Liu Yuan put the glasses on his head: "Remember, you are the little kid."

With those words, Baki found himself in a strange place. He could feel the presence of his physical body, but at the same time, everything in the game seemed to tell him that there were real enemies here.

As if drawn by fate, when he turned his head, he saw a strange creature with purple fur and unusually developed muscles.

He looked at Baki as if enraged, and gave him the middle finger.

"Drink it!!!"

Baki admitted that he had been mocked, and no matter what, he was determined to kill this purple sweet potato spirit in front of him.

A great battle between the two is about to begin, but in their first encounter, Baki was caught off guard.

"What... kind of move is this?"

He found himself being lifted up by the purple sweet potato spirit by the muscles in his chest. He tried to resist, but neither kicking nor punching could budge the purple sweet potato spirit an inch.

"Damn it!"

Baki was slammed to the ground, followed by a barrage of light punches, heavy punches, light punches, heavy punches. During the continuous attack, purple lightning erupted from the purple sweet potato spirit wearing the skull mask.

"What? Is this something humans can achieve? I see, training muscles and internal organs to the extreme and strengthening oneself through bioelectricity?"

"Ouch! But it feels so good!!"

The back-and-forth battle between Baki and the Purple Potato Spirit in the game was very enjoyable. Outside the game, Kisara quietly asked, "Can he really have so much fun with such a small game? Doesn't he have any desires?"

"Have!"

Liu Yuan said seriously, "His desire is to become stronger, and by 'stronger,' he means muscles. He'll learn techniques and even risk his life to win, but for someone like him, nothing—no parrying, no firearms—is as important as this..."

A direct, bone-crushing attack is best suited to him.

"There are such strange people."

Meanwhile, Leticia felt inadequate. As the manager, she had played almost every game in the internet cafe, and this one was no exception. However, she had always played from the perspective of the attacker, never expecting that this game could also be played from the perspective of the attacker.

What are you thinking about?

"Such a simple game has so many ways to be played..."

"There are many ways to play, but most of the time we need to adjust the gameplay according to the customers' needs. Our internet cafe games offer a very high degree of freedom."

Upon hearing this, Leticia asked seriously, "Boss, are these game worlds real worlds?"

"No."

Liu Yuan replied with certainty: "If you ask whether the real world exists, my answer is yes. But whether it exists or not, I can tell you definitively that these are all fake, virtual. However, sometimes when the boss is in a good mood or takes a liking to someone, it might become real, who knows?"

Leticia pondered these words. If what Liu Yuan said was true, then was there an even more powerful being above him?

Just as she was thinking, Mu Geng nervously said to Liu Yuan, "Boss, something bad has happened! That person just now..."

Chapter 206 Mugen?

Before Mugeng could finish speaking, Liu Yuan looked over and was greatly shocked by what he saw: "This young man really knows how to have fun."

Baki's body didn't move, but his muscles contracted in sync with his game counterpart, causing blood to flow from his seven orifices. In fact, the damage he sustained in the game was reflected in reality.

"Wow! I never expected this person to have such talent..."

Kisara shook Liu Yuan's body: "Boss! Don't be a riddle reader! Tell me what it is."

The legendary "ghost brain"

"Ghost Brain?"

Liu Yuan explained in a serious tone, "Let me ask you, if you lie in bed and imagine yourself running for an hour, will that achieve the desired exercise effect?"

"How could that be! Lying in bed is lying in bed."

"But this kind of mind can do it. It can drive the body's actions, making every muscle move and achieve the effect of being exercised. This is the case with him. Logically speaking, this kind of talent should only exist in imagination, but I never thought I would encounter a real one today."

Kisara nodded: "What the boss said is very good. So the question is, how do we deal with this customer?"

Baki's state is that in the game he is passionately fighting with the purple sweet potato spirit, and outside the game his body starts to bleed and is even bruised from time to time, and his body is even deformed.

"Don't worry about it. Just record this set of equipment; it will be his exclusive equipment from now on. Oh, and when he comes back, settle the cost of the equipment; it'll be 100,000 per set."

"puff!"

This number made Mu Geng unable to hold back. She knew that the equipment cost 10,000 to purchase, but it would cost 100,000 to become exclusive equipment? This was the right to use the internet, not to buy it.

Leticia had no objections: "Understood."

"Alright, there aren't many people anyway, let him spray. His body will get used to it after a while."

Baki had forgotten about time and space; all he wanted to do now was kill the purple sweet potato spirit covered in lightning in front of him. The attacks between them were devoid of any fancy flourishes; it was all about the raw, visceral force of each blow.

"Drink!"

"ah!!"

In the course of the battle, the demonic shape formed by Baki's back muscles gradually became clearer. When his consciousness was about to fade and his body acted on instinct, the muscles on his back completely formed a demonic shape.

At that moment, his body instinctively delivered a punch, and the purple sweet potato spirit could no longer get up. In the game, Baki's body also remained incapacitated at the point of that final blow; he was dead in the game.

His brain initially accepted death, but then it suddenly realized he was playing a game. So his body started functioning again. Baki took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, and felt refreshed.

"Boss! This game is fantastic. Anything better?"

Liu Yuan stroked his chin thoughtfully and said, "This is a good option."

Thank you so much!

After saying that, Baki got up to leave. As he left, Kisara couldn't help but mutter, "He paid for several days' worth of games, and only played for a few hours..."

Leticia shook her head: "He has already gained some insight and doesn't need to stay here any longer. He's a genius, and even in the Little Garden, such a genius would be welcomed by many communities."

"It's not a big problem. There's not much difference between geniuses and ordinary people who come to internet cafes. When it comes to games, it's just a matter of whether you like them or not, whether they suit you or not. But in terms of beating them, theoretically, there's no game that you can't beat, even on the highest difficulty."

"But boss, we don't seem to have any fighting games..."

“It’s okay, if I say it’s there, it will be there.”

After saying that, Liu Yuan contacted the system: "System! I want to buy a game."

"256 million, please."

"But I only have a little over a million yen~ Could I use Kisara's lifespan as collateral?"

"No."

"Then I'll use mine. Give me a list of fighting games."

As they spoke, various fighting games came into Liu Yuan's view. Kung Fu, Street Fighter, King of Fighters, and so on—the games were countless. However, among so many games, Liu Yuan noticed one that he wasn't sure if it could even be considered a game.

Mugen, strictly speaking, is a battle platform, and its balance is a complete mess. It also has an internal ranking system, but how should I put it... it's kind of ridiculous.

If this happened in an internet cafe, Liu Yuan and Yuanhuan Zhenli would probably be the only ones at that level. Yuanhuan is truly capable, Liu Yuan is the owner, and the rules have eliminated them.

Others can be assigned to all sorts of strange levels, but that would make most players less interested in playing.

"System, can you balance this game?"

"Yes, we can balance the damage calculation and even set unique skills, but..."
