Mission in another world with my transformed best friend

"That voice... isn't that the doctor who claims to be able to perform 'sex reassignment surgery without anesthesia'? Oh no, we've fallen into a trap! Run!"

After Wang Kai retracted one foot that was about to step onto the carriage, he immediately turned and ran, but his long hair seemed to be grabbed tightly by a small hand that reached out of the carriage door and was being pulled inside forcefully...

"Ouch! Ouch! Let go! Let go! You're going to pull my hair out! What if I go bald?"

"Anyway, your bald spot on top was already a bit bald before, I was just getting you into the 'brilliant' state ahead of time... Enough with the nonsense, hurry up and climb up here!"

"No! Let go! Someone is abducting a young woman in the street... no, someone is kidnapping a young boy in the street! Help! Waaah!"

After Wang Kai struggled and screamed a few times, a small hand suddenly appeared from nowhere and covered his mouth, then he was firmly choked. As his body was pulled backward, he felt as if two soft, squishy objects were pressed against the back of his head. It felt like...

In the half-second that Wang Kai was stunned, he was pulled into the carriage by a tremendous force...

"Uncle driver, hurry up, hurry up..."

A fragrant shout brushed past his ear. Wang Kai helplessly closed his eyes, intending to accept the cruel reality of fate, and sighed deeply.

"I'm not afraid of being shattered to pieces, but could you let me see you one last time before I'm cut off...?"

"What are you talking about out of the blue?"

"Just a heartfelt sentiment before I lost all will to live. I was only planning to use it for a little while tonight, but you 'intercepted' it halfway through. What kind of karma did I create? Waaaaah..."

"Haven't seen you for months, have you changed? Has your head changed too? You're just talking nonsense... Alright, get up now!"

"No way, you won't even give me a moment to linger, and you're doing it right here... in the carriage? I can understand not using anesthesia, but with the carriage being so bumpy, what if your hand shakes and you accidentally cut somewhere else?"

"Oh no, he's spouting incomprehensible nonsense. Could it be that I really went mad while leveling up? There aren't any 'mental hospitals' in this world, so what should I do?"

Zhang Lan seemed lost in thought and unease, and released her grip on his throat.

Wang Kai was also puzzled. They just let go like that, weren't they afraid I would run away... Did they want me to "castrate" myself?

No way, they killed my "son" and then went on to destroy my spirit! Oh no, Barbie Q is dead...

Wang Kai tilted his head slightly, looking up at Zhang Lan's confused face...

To be honest, observing from this angle and distance, I've almost forgotten what that man's face used to look like. Now, with that perfect face so close to my eyes, I don't feel visually fatigued no matter how long I look at it. It's like there's an irresistible attraction to me.

As for why Kyle became a "desperate simp," perhaps we can start to understand the reasons behind it.

Wait a minute, those delicately drawn eyebrows, her rosy cheeks, and her bright red lips... could she be wearing makeup?

As Wang Kai's heart raced, he smelled the fragrance emanating from under that small nose and felt the softness on the back of her head. This position was exactly the same as the one in some TV dramas where the male lead dies in the arms of the female lead.

To be honest, even as a grown man, he couldn't help but feel a lump in his throat when he saw that scene. Now that he has truly become the male lead in that scene in the TV series, whether it's a sex reassignment surgery without anesthesia, self-castration, or death, all fear has vanished without a trace. All that remains is his gaze at the female lead, enjoying the final peace before the end of his life.

"Zhang Lan, we're brothers, aren't we..."

"nonsense!"

"Dude, you smell so good right now..."

"what?"

"It's so soft too..."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Lan's gaze returned to the face less than ten centimeters below. She quickly caught a glimpse of something "familiar" in Wang Kai's eyes, and her scalp immediately tingled. She didn't know where the strength came from, but she grabbed his shoulder and pushed him forward...

"Get out of here! It would be better if you really became an idiot. Being with you means I'm always in danger of losing my chastity!"

Pushed to the opposite seat, Wang Kai finally came to his senses and slowly turned around to sit down.

At the same time, he kept his legs closed to hide the "bet," then carefully raised his head and said with a forced smile.

"Well, just now I... I was really scared out of my wits, and I was talking nonsense..."

"Did I scare you so badly that you lost your mind?"

"Yes, yes, no, no... I was so scared by that old man Hani that I didn't come to my senses for a moment. Plus, I inexplicably bumped into you... no, I mean met you. My brain couldn't quite process what was happening, and with all these emotional ups and downs, it's no wonder I was a little confused, right?"

When the name of the key figure was mentioned, Zhang Lan paused for a few seconds, then turned her small face to the car window and spoke in a gentle tone mixed with a hint of helplessness.

"Yes, if I hadn't been so eager to get away and clear my name, I wouldn't have been led by the nose by him for so long. Just a little warning: even if you're going to draw your sword against a hero, don't make an enemy of this old man. I feel like he's some kind of being beyond human comprehension..."

Wang Kai barely heard a word of Zhang Lan's casual words. Only after Zhang Lan looked away did he finally dare to look at her properly.

It's not so much that she's changed, but from head to toe she's transformed from a tomboy into a stunningly beautiful princess.

A small sun hat, trimmed with gold thread, was perched diagonally on her head. Her once shoulder-length blonde hair was now styled up, with a few strands peeking out from under the brim. Her lightly made-up face transformed the girl's youthful beauty into something noble and elegant. Her thoughtful expression was a weapon of mass destruction capable of evoking men's sympathy.

Wearing a noble evening gown, even though she was just sitting, the dress still accentuated the girl's perfect curves. Below, her small, delicate feet were encased in high heels, with a white ribbon tied around each ankle.

With all the beautiful scenery combined before him, Wang Kai's "dementia" gradually worsened.

Under such an "aggressive" gaze, Zhang Lan also sensed something was wrong. When she turned her face, their eyes met, and both of them froze for a moment...

"Zhang Lan (Er Gou)... Ah? No, no, you say it... You go first!"

A sentence, almost identical in every word except for the form of address, rang out simultaneously, causing the two to freeze for a few seconds. Then Zhang Lan clutched her stomach and couldn't help but burst into loud laughter, and Wang Kai, scratching the back of his head, inexplicably joined in with a silly laugh.

"We've been neighbors for ten years, but only lived together for three or four years. Our synchronization rate is ridiculously high. Fine, ladies first, you go first..."

Zhang Lan quickly suppressed her laughter, leaned back in her seat, and took out a handkerchief to wipe away the tears of laughter from the corners of her eyes. Then, she carefully looked Wang Kai up and down before starting a conversation.

“It’s been almost two months, no, since you started ‘leveling up,’ we’ve rarely spoken like this, right?”

"Yes...that's right. Now that I've returned after mastering the skill, what's your opinion of me?"

While responding, Wang Kai kept his legs tightly tucked in, after all, the timing of this opening statement was so close to that "bet." In order to nip the risk in the bud, he needed to quickly shift the topic back to the recent past.

"Evaluation? Aside from the very beginning, when Martha and I went outside the city to collect materials and fought some monsters, I've hardly ever left Merck Town, let alone taken on any adventure quests... I've almost forgotten that I'm an adventurer too, sigh..."

As Zhang Lan sighed, her words continued to jiggle between Wang Kai's tense nerves.

In a moment of urgency, Wang Kai decided to steer the conversation toward "adventure" and replied.

"The identity of an adventurer sounds exciting, but it's actually quite tough. It's similar to the job I used to do—the work is heavy and exhausting, the pay is low, and there's even the risk of death..."

"Really? I think you're enjoying yourself... Look at you, all that bulky breastplate, chainmail, elbow pads, and knee pads are gone, and now, in simple clothes, you do have a bit of a 'knight-errant' look. Judging by your gamer-like mindset, this 'knight-errant set' should be pretty strong, even if it's a bit dirty..."

"What 'Heroic Set'? It's just ordinary clothes, nothing like those 'white-grade' outfits with any special bonuses like defense, agility, or strength?"

"Really? That surprises me a bit. Wait, what's that... 'stick' at your waist?"

Fortunately, it only mentioned "waist" and not "between legs." Wang Kai's slightly relaxed nerves tightened again. To divert attention, he turned slightly to the side, showing off the iron rod to shift the focus.

"It's just an iron rod. Compared to what I have on me... no, compared to my fists, it's easier to kill monsters with 'it'."

"No way!?" Zhang Lan snapped out of her daze, her slightly surprised eyes scanning the other person again. "You, who's thoroughly studied the 'game manuals,' went out to 'solo practice' for months, and this is all you've accomplished? Hey, what's that ring on your finger?"
