I'm just an internet cafe owner

"nonono~"

Before entering the game, Liu Yuan waved his index finger in denial, saying, "This isn't about playing; it's about giving customers a better gaming experience. I'll guide them now, and they can guide newcomers later."

"Tch, that's just sophistry."

I'm just a lowly network administrator, how can I question what my boss says?

However, their

The conversation drew the attention of Minato Namikaze and Tina.

"The Elden Ring? If biohazard weapons can be brought out, what about this game?"

Minato Namikaze and Tina were both curious, and just as everyone gathered around, the PVP began.

Subaru Natsuki and Kaori Fujimaru both activated the Magic Academy's blessing, so the first PvP battle started directly at the Magic Academy.

Subaru Natsuki chose a shield and a greatsword, a combination that allowed him to defeat many bosses and successfully explore many dangerous areas.

Fujimaru Kaori then took out her staff and the famous sword Tsukihime, ready to give Liu Yuan a real show of her skills.

And then? Then the two of them got a severe beating from Liu Yuan.

They certainly had extensive combat experience, but Liu Yuan was even more ruthless. Meanwhile, in all the games Liu Yuan played solo, he always played in realistic mode.

Coupled with his understanding of various weapons, he completely overwhelmed the two men, leaving them utterly unable to retaliate.

A shield and a mage? Liu Yuan jumped over and used a Valkyrie's Water Bird, and the person was gone. Then he used another Water Bird, and Subaru Natsuki was gone too.

"What kind of skill is this?"

"So handsome..."

Liu Yuan introduced, "Valkyrie's ultimate technique, Water Bird Dance!"

"Again!"

"Again!"

Subaru Natsuki and Kaori Fujimaru felt the pressure once again. As they explored the world more deeply and acquired more skills, they became a little arrogant. They used to feel they could defeat even the strongest bosses, but now they felt their arrogance was getting out of hand.

Elinora wielded her double-edged sword, rising up and swinging it to send two people flying.

The five-hit combo, a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood, perfectly and happily sent the two away.

Raising the Darkmoon Greatsword given to him by his wife Lani, three sword energies struck one person. Roll? Parry? Sorry, the mobs might give you that chance, but Liu Yuan would never give them that chance.

"What are all these things?"

"That greatsword is so cool..."

Liu Yuan introduced unhurriedly, "This is the greatsword my wife gave me. You get it after completing Lani's side quest. Come on! Take this move, Divine Body Transforms into Sword!"

"Desecrating the flame!"

The two were happily sent off three times in a row by the Olympic torch. In each battle, Liu Yuan would choose different methods of fighting based on the different preparations of his opponents.

At first, Liu Yuan tried all sorts of fun methods to send the two away, such as the Frenzy Flow and the Bleeding Flow. However, as time went on, Liu Yuan's fighting style gradually became simple and unadorned.

"Frost on the ground! Fujimaru!"

"Ready? Eat my Gap Light!"

"Success! Look at me...wait?"

Just as Subaru Natsuki's execution was about to hit Liu Yuan, Liu Yuan's game character disappeared.

Liu Yuan calmly shut down the computer: "That's enough. Playing any longer will affect business."

The moment those words were uttered, a huge question mark appeared above everyone's heads.

Liu Yuan, without batting an eye, said, "Keep it up, you'll catch up to me in no time!"

After saying that, he ran straight back to the front desk. Seeing this, Kisara couldn't help but complain, "Boss, you're really a scumbag. They were clearly about to win, and you cheated?"

Liu Yuan shook his head: "No, I'm not someone who can't accept failure. I just showed off and then ran away; it's fundamentally different. Besides, did I say I didn't lose?"

"Disgusting boss."

"I'll deduct it from your salary."

"Ha, I get a salary?"

"Don't call me trash, he'll have to thank me later."

At that moment, Kisara suddenly felt that his future was bleak. Following such a scumbag boss, even he, a demon, would become utterly despicable.

Subaru Natsuki and Kaori Fujimaru were dumbfounded. They were about to win, but then the person ran away.

Fujimaru Kaori looked at Mary beside her: "We won, right? Right?"

Mary nodded: "Given the situation at the time, you would have won if the boss hadn't quit the game."

On the other side, Tina, biting into a taiyaki, grumbled in dissatisfaction, "Boss, you're bad!"

Minato Namikaze, however, didn't share Tina's thoughts. He looked at Subaru Natsuki and asked, "Do you remember why you challenged the boss to a fight?"

Natsuki Subaru replied somewhat unhappily, "To improve my experience, but..."

"So, has your experience improved?"

"I…"

In that instant, Natsuki Subaru realized something. Recalling the battle of the past half-day, from being thoroughly thrashed by Liu Yuan at the beginning to having to be cautious and careful in dealing with him later on.

From recklessly rushing in at the beginning to eventually adapting to different situations and cooperating with each other.

Through constant battles, he almost learned to unconditionally trust his comrades.

Liu Yuan charged forward immediately upon unleashing his combat technique, knowing that Fujimaru Kaori would interrupt his attack. He trusted his comrades and chose different approaches based on the enemy's strength.

When facing magic, use combat techniques that counter magic or directly dash to interrupt it. When encountering melee combat, one person holds off the enemy while the other attacks from a distance.

Don't be impatient. Even though it was an experience I learned from the very first monster, I often forgot it when fighting Liu Yuan, only remembering it at the very end.

"I...thank you, boss!!"

Upon hearing the thank you, Kisara's face showed an incredulous expression. It was truly the first time she had ever seen someone so utterly despicable receive a thank you.

Liu Yuan then gently tapped her head with his right fist: "Because you have no idea what he wants. He doesn't want victory, and he doesn't lack experience. What he lacks is mindset."

Subaru Natsuki in Chapter Four: Letting His Strength Speak

"Young man, are you encountering any difficulties in your own world?"

Through personal conversations, Minato Namikaze deduced that he was in another world, and that the people around him also came from another world. To gather intelligence, he initiated a conversation with Subaru Natsuki.

"Yes, we encountered a very, very strong organization. My strength was too weak, and my planning was too poor. I..."

"Don't underestimate yourself, you are very strong."

Minato Namikaze said seriously, "In just half a day, you've improved to the point where you can even defeat the boss. If you still call that weak, then there aren't many strong people left in this world."

Minato Namikaze has a very keen eye, even though he's watching the battle through a screen. The fight over the past half-day has actually been incredibly exciting. Putting aside others, his own experience in Resident Evil 8 has greatly improved his mental fortitude and reaction speed.

He'd seen some of the Elden Ring games they played; they were true combat games with a wide variety of weapons and unique fighting techniques. Even without using the Flying Thunder God Technique, he wasn't confident he could defeat Subaru Natsuki in his current state.

Hearing this, Subaru Natsuki was excited, but he quickly remembered that he must always remain calm and think things through before acting. Seeing Minato Namikaze's experienced demeanor, he couldn't help but ask.

As for Liu Yuan? He was indeed fighting seriously from beginning to end, but he had a vague feeling that this was not the true strength of the internet cafe owner.

"Alright! Let me muster my courage and face them again!"

These words not only encouraged him, but even Kisaragi at the front desk couldn't help but applaud.

"Look at them, how passionate they are. And look at you."

"Me? What are you trying to say?"

Liu Yuan silently took out the duty roster. She had a good eye; there was no sweeping, mopping, or cooking work listed, but as she spoke, those words appeared on the notebook.

"Look at how brave you are, helping him improve his combat experience through your actions. I, Kisaragi, am proud to have such a good boss."

"Alright, alright, you can't escape this even if you keep flattering me. You're the network administrator, look at what you've been doing all this time."

"I didn't do anything!"

"You still have the nerve to say that you automatically cleaned up my shop after get off work because I delayed it."

"what…"

Kisara, who had been somewhat energetic, collapsed onto the table: "We were fighting side by side this morning, and now I'm being made to do this kind of thing, waaaaah..."

Inside the mansion, Natsuki Subaru, who had returned, jumped up excitedly.

"awesome!"

Her shout prompted Rem, who was tidying up the room, to involuntarily complain: "Emilia-sama's benefactor doesn't help with chores and even puts her shoes on the blankets. Rem's opinion of the guest has dropped significantly."

"Hey hey hey?"

Natsuki Subaru then realized that he was wearing shoes on the bed. He hurriedly got out of bed and said directly to Rem, "You are the maid of this mansion, right? There is something very important. The Witch Cult is going to take action tonight."

"?"

Rem had been expressionless until she heard those words, at which point she became murderous.

But at the same time, Subaru Natsuki drew his weapon and said seriously, "I have the ability to foresee the future. While I was unconscious, I foresaw a terrible future. Tonight, this mansion will be besieged by the Sloth-controlled Witch Cult. I don't know their purpose, but I saw Emilia's death, Rem's death, and your sister Ram's death. Please, believe me."

"impossible!"

Rem immediately retorted, "This is Roswaal's mansion, and the owner of this mansion is one of the few mages in the Kingdom of Lugnica. The Witch Cult, those lowly flies in the gutter, don't have the guts to provoke a mage."

"I have no reason to lie to you."

Subaru Natsuki used the same method he used in the previous loop, increasing the weight of his words through his strength.

He took out a weapon from his backpack, a weapon that Liu Yuan had lent him before closing the door.

The moment she drew her weapon, Rem revealed an expression she had never shown in any of her previous reincarnations.

"This is…"

Rem sensed an unparalleled, divine power emanating from this weapon, a power no witch cult could possess. Upon seeing it, she was certain it wasn't a weapon an ordinary person could steal. At the very least, she sensed she couldn't lift it.

A weapon that requires sufficient dexterity, faith, and strength to wield. When unleashing its combat technique, the golden wave spreads forward in a fan shape; the distance and power of the spread depend on the user's spiritual strength.
