Marvel Gashapon Maniac

Fu You suddenly felt a headache coming on.

……

The Devil May Cry series sold out exceptionally well, and Thor sold out all the games he had on hand.

Novelty and word-of-mouth are the biggest advantages for game developers, and Fuyou has both.

Fu Hua also bought a copy of the game. She was very curious about Fu You and the training game she had created.

"Huh? Isn't this the class monitor? Did you buy it too?" Kiana, who was also returning to the dormitory, spotted Fu Hua flipping through game discs and went up to greet her.

"Hmm, I'm quite curious."

Kiana's eyes suddenly lit up.

"This game has a battle mode, class monitor, do you want to give it a try?"

Fuyou shamelessly added a PVP mode to Devil May Cry, claiming that "PVP is the best way to train players."

Seeing Kiana's excited expression, Fu Hua couldn't refuse and reluctantly accepted the invitation.

It's a circular area, much like a training ground, which serves as the stage for PvP in the Devil May Cry series.

Blood Palace, a PvE dungeon in the Devil May Cry series, has been turned into a PvP arena by Fuyou.

Fu Hua and Kiana stood facing each other.

"I see, it's a complete copy of the equipment I'm carrying?" Fu Hua said, looking at the equipment that was exactly the same as the real thing.

Although you don't start the game wearing Valkyrie armor, you still have weapons.

However, looking at the other side, Kiana's equipment was somewhat different.

"A red trench coat?"

Fu Hua immediately noticed the red trench coat that Kiana was wearing.

"This is the outfit worn by the main character of this game, and it can be unlocked after completing the story mode," Kiana explained with a smile.

Fu Hua sensed a conspiracy in Kiana's smile and silently pushed up her glasses.

"bring it on."

Fu Hua made a starting move; instead of guessing what Kiana was up to, she decided to attack and see.

Fu Hua launched the first attack.

Kiana did not use the Rebellion Greatsword on her back, but instead drew her twin pistols and fought according to the Kaslana family's gun-fu style.

The two sides clashed at close range, and for a moment they were evenly matched.

"Kiana, your gun-fu has improved quite a bit," Fu Hua commented, catching the gun butt that was about to hit her.

Kiana chuckled and said, "Of course, I've been training hard lately too."

"Alright, now I'm going to get serious, Kiana."

Fu Hua is now ready to fight seriously.

But Kiana revealed a knowing smile.

"Alright, I'm going to use cheat codes too."

"【mercury】."

The silver field spread, and everything around it slowed down to an extremely low speed, so even if Fu Hua wanted to avoid it, she couldn't.

In this almost frozen spacetime, only one person remains unaffected.

Kiana is using Dante's power.

The mercury style has the power to slow down the surrounding space and time.

"Hehehe." Kiana grinned mischievously as she watched Fu Hua move slowly.

……

"Haha, we beat the class monitor!" Kiana jumped and danced with excitement.

Fu Hua opened the game pod and couldn't help but shake her head.

I didn't expect this game to have a so-called "stun" state. If you don't have a special skill to use your momentum while in the air, you can't avoid attacks.

Indeed, we lost because of the information gap, and there's not much we can do about it.

Surprisingly, this game seems quite fun.

"Okay, that feels good. I'm going to the training ground to practice now."

Kiana used the classic "win one game and run" tactic, not giving Fu Hua a chance to turn the tide and immediately started another game.

Upon arriving at the circular arena once again, the figure with heterochromatic eyes appeared on the other side of the arena as usual.

Kiana stepped forward.

"According to the bet, I've already beaten the class monitor. Can you tell me the truth now?" Kiana said.

Looking at the smug Kiana, Tianqiong sighed, "Looks like she tried to outsmart me again."

Kiana chuckled but didn't reply.

Tianqiong slowly said, "What happened next can't be solved by being clever."

Despite saying that, Tianqiong still offered an explanation.

"Due to restrictions, I can't reveal too much, but you must have been curious about dreams with voices, right?"

"of course."

Kiana had once seen a strange being in a dream, and that being even mentioned her mother, Cecilia.

"That's the opponent you need to face, and you must master that power."

A golden spear appeared in Tianqiong's hand, aimed at Kiana.

"Therefore you must continue to grow stronger, strong enough to control that power."

"Is this so..."

Kiana remained silent, and silently drew her twin pistols.

"Although I don't understand what you mean by all this, but..."

Kiana's crossed pistols are the starting stance for Dante's crossfire.

"As long as you get stronger, that's all that matters."

1. I accidentally fell asleep while typing, and then an earthquake woke me up this morning. I'm devastated.

2. As people get older, they often feel sleepy. But why does HL suffer from insomnia? Am I just weird?

3. (Continued from image) Wendy!

Chapter 19 Tony's Strange Path

Fu You, who had originally been interested in exploring the headquarters of Destiny, completely lost the desire to continue after receiving news of Luo Ji's return.

If Loki tells Thor...

Given Thor's frequency of drinking and bragging, the whole of New York would probably know about her by the next day.

Where will he put his dignity as a man after this?

"Rita, I have some urgent matters to attend to, so I'll head back to St. Freya Academy first."

In order to shut Luo Ji up before things happen, Fu You has no choice but to rush back now.

“Okay, I’ll take care of it.” Rita arranged transportation for Fu You to St. Freya Academy.

……

Fu You returned to her dormitory and, as expected, found Luo Ji waiting for her there.

Although Loki's face showed impatience and she was crossing her legs, she perfectly controlled the angle.

It seems the old queen's teachings are quite effective; at least Fu You can't control the gentleman so easily... cough cough, from a lady's perspective.

"Ahem, Luo Ji, you're here?" Fu You shrank back, considering whether he should make a run for it.

Luo Ji picked up a stack of documents and threw them at Fu You.

"I've basically finished my investigation, and there's virtually no situation where the two of you appear at the same time."

Loki directly stated her investigation findings:

“As the professional chef for the Avengers’ banquets, Fu You appears at the dinner table quite frequently, while you rarely attend gatherings.”

"That doesn't prove anything, does it?" Fu You smiled awkwardly, trying to make a last-ditch effort.

"It's okay, I'll just smash the game console in Fu You's house and see if he shows up." Luo Ji grinned mischievously and turned to leave.

Fu You had no choice but to summon the Heavy Bunny to stop her.

"No, we can talk this over." Fu You could only stop Luo Ji with a forced smile.

He handed his disco gun to Tony from another world, otherwise he would have made her dance to "Gokuraku Jodo" and filmed it to use as leverage.

"As expected of you, you bastard who makes tofu so hot!" Loki said through gritted teeth.

"Please, Mapo Tofu is a standard dish, okay? Cat's Tongue is just blowing on it."

"Change me back right now!" Luo Ji rushed up and grabbed Fu You's collar.

However, she almost lost her grip due to the rebound force of the impact.

"I can't help it either." Fu You quickly took a few steps back to prevent Luo Ji from using any strange curse magic against her.

"Our bracelets are different types, and you broke yours yourself, okay?"

"I don't care! My mother has already started teaching me what I need to know when I get married!"

Fu You couldn't help but feel ashamed; the Queen was truly grooming Luo Ji to be a future queen.

"If I find a solution for the system upgrade, I'll definitely let you know, okay?" Fu You reluctantly offered a hollow promise.

“Okay, but I have one condition.” Loki pouted.

"what?"

"Tell me as soon as you find her, and also... help my brother find a princess."

"Huh?" Fu You was dumbfounded. How could they have come up with such a question?

"Once my brother's queen is decided, I won't have to be taught strange magic by my mother every day!"

"Strange magic?" Fu You suddenly became curious. What did "strange" mean?

"You don't need to know!" Luo Ji roared, startling Fu You into quickly covering his ears.

"The old queen is quite shrewd; I didn't expect her to know so much."

Fu You muttered to himself.

……

Marvel World - New York

In the New York Sanctuary, Tony finished his studies for the day and planned to take a break.

Pushing open the gate, Gu Yi was sitting on a deck chair in the yard, wearing sunglasses and basking in the sun.

When she saw Tony come out, Gu Yi waved the Arctic Ocean drink in her hand.

"Would you like a bottle?"

"icy?"

"icy."

Tony nodded. "One bottle, please."

Before Tony could even process what was happening, he found himself sitting opposite the Ancient One, holding a still-cold drink in his hand.
