I'm bad, but players love me

[I understand. Ah Dai is not suitable for playing games with too much freedom, because she can turn "hero saving the beauty" into "I am an NPC."]

[If you're not good at it, practice more! If you can't afford to lose, don't play! The past is the past, and the present is the present. If you keep comparing the past to the present, why don't you compare it to when you were just born? Ah Dai, the glory of the past is gone!]

"Go, go, go. Just wait. Sooner or later, I, Ah Dai, will have my day of turning over a new leaf!"

A mere villain, how could a player like me easily surpass him? Ella's full favorability is a must!

She immediately began to analyze with Ella, "Aside from the ELO organization, are there any other hostile organizations in Cori City recently?"

Ella frowned, subconsciously avoided it, pursed her lips and said, "I'll tell my father."

It seems that the favorability is not enough and the other party does not trust me enough.

Seeing Yun Shuo couldn't let go of her gun, Ella's face, which had just cooled down, instantly became hot again. "Give it back to me, Yun Shuo. If you have this, I will feel threatened at any time and anywhere."

"Is this how you treat your savior?" Yun Shuo retorted casually and threw the gun back nonchalantly.

Anyway, I've pretty much figured out the technology, so I'll just get one myself when I get home. Stealing a gun is shameful, but stealing technology isn't. How can someone who's educated be considered stealing?

Hearing this, Ella straightened her posture and replied seriously, "Of course not. I will repay you, but only if you stand by me."

Unconsciously, Ella had relaxed and no longer demanded that Yun Shuo must be her subordinate. Instead, as long as he stopped hanging around in the ELO organization and didn't oppose her, everything else was fine with her.

But even these conditions that she relaxed were not something Yun Shuo would accept.

"Come on, I just saved you. There's no need for you to care about this." Although Yun Shuo said this, Ella would never think so.

Everyone has a rebellious nature. The more you try to stop her from caring, the more she'll care. Just like when you comfort a girl and tell her not to cry, the tears she was holding back will burst forth.

"I will repay you, Yun Shuo. I will repay you in the way I can accept and give." Ella declared solemnly again.

Then she turned and left, leaving Yun Shuo and A'dai, the player who lived like an NPC, looking at each other in bewilderment.

After walking for a while, seeing that Yun Shuo hadn't caught up, Ella couldn't help but turn around and shout, "What are you standing there for? Catch up, Yun Shuo."

Yun Shuo fell silent after hearing the voice which was obviously much softer than before, and then followed silently.

At this time, Ah Dai was still standing there, like a dog that was out of place, and no one even kicked her.

[The green hat is on your head, what can you do to me? ]

[Congratulations to Ah Dai for becoming the first player to be cheated on! ]

[Who understands? The new wife ran off with the old one! Ah Dai, hurry up and hold your Lumi tight. Don't forget that Lumi talked to Yun Shuo in the previous PV.]

[My wife ran away as soon as she said she would. Why is Yun Shuo acting like a vixen?]

Chapter 21: Disposable Killer

Setash hunched over the table, writing something non-stop. The quill in his hand trembled and jumped. Without even looking up, he asked, "You mean that old man found someone more powerful than you, who not only easily discovered your location but also crippled your arm? And then..."

His pen suddenly stopped, tapping the end of the sentence heavily. The "click" sound was particularly clear in the unsettling silence. "And then, you came back empty-handed without doing anything?"

The last word was pronounced with great emphasis. The woman who had been standing with her head lowered suddenly knelt down. Regardless of the slight pain in her right arm, she crawled on her knees towards her employer, trying to kiss the corner of his clothes in an attempt to gain forgiveness.

"I remember when I first hired you, you said that with your assassination skills, I wouldn't say you could capture and kill anyone in the Mechanical Kingdom, but apart from a few people, no one could escape unscathed from your attacks, right? But what about now?"

Beneath Setash's calmness was a suppressed rage. He kicked the kneeling woman in front of him away and asked, "Besides wasting money, what else can you do?"

"Yes, this is all my fault." She lowered her head dejectedly, the wound on her upper arm still aching slightly.

At a distance of a thousand meters, sniping at such a long distance requires adjusting the trajectory. The accuracy of firing the second shot before the adjustment is made is worrying.

From that day on, she had been trying to numb herself with these words.

But she knew that for her, who was blessed by the God of Machinery Mani and possessed divine power, as long as she began to adjust immediately after being shot, based on her years of experience and the distance between Ella and the safe zone at that time, it was entirely possible to kill her.

But if she were really given another chance to choose, she still wouldn't have the courage to fire a second shot under such circumstances. No, to be more precise, she didn't even have the courage to raise her head and look at the other person again.

Because she knew that if the man wanted to, he would be faster than her, and her position had already been exposed. Death was already upon her head, just waiting for her to look up and greet it.

That day, because she was afraid that he would stay there waiting for her to reveal a flaw, she did not have the courage to stand up and walk until she was completely back to the safe area from the rooftop. She just crawled like a snake, rubbing her arms and delaying the treatment time. The injury on her arm also left a root of disease, and it was very likely that she would never be able to lift a gun again in the future.

Originally, she thought that the man was just one of Ella's male lovers, and she even thought about watching the ugly appearance of this handsome man after Ella was shot in the head by her. But now, it was she who showed her ugly appearance.

"Of course this is your fault. You made such a boast when I hired you!" Setash roared angrily at first, then his tone suddenly softened. "How is your injury?"

"It's not serious." The woman replied respectfully.

"Will it affect my future use of guns?"

The woman hesitated, but she quickly concealed her hesitation and replied with a firm, pretentious expression, "It doesn't affect me."

"Okay." Setash took a deep breath and pulled out a gun from under the desk.

With a "bang," a round bullet hole appeared between the woman's eyebrows, and behind her was a large pool of blood. Her eyes still held a puzzled expression. One second was too short, and her brain didn't even have time to react.

She thought that if she knelt down obediently and admitted her mistakes respectfully, she would avoid being punished, so she knelt at her employer's feet. However, she did not expect that it was this posture that made it so easy for her employer to execute her.

"Want to lie to me?" Setash laughed at the woman's stupidity. "Let's talk about it in the next life."

Setash took out a silk handkerchief from his bosom and carefully wiped the still smoking barrel of the gun.

Blood splattered on his face, but no servant dared to remind him to wipe it. They just silently and skillfully dragged the body away and disposed of it, then began to wash the soiled floor and replace the blood-stained utensils.

This was so easy for them that it only took a dozen minutes or so for the study to return to its original state.

Only after everyone had left did Setash slowly wipe the half-dried blood in front of the mirror. "The man following Ella?" His azure eyes were filled with madness. "Man? Then he should have followed me, instead of living like a dog by Ella's side."

"I'm going to hold a banquet." Setash slowly wiped the blood off his face. "I'm going to kill her again at the banquet! If that man insists on going with her, I'll kill him."

Yun Shuo had no idea that his life was being targeted by someone again. He just continued to watch Ella coldly as she jumped up and down, trying her best to show him the beauty of "aristocratic life".

Ella was also a little discouraged by the "cold shoulder" behavior of the past few days.

Who is she? Ever since she was born, Ella has been held in the palm of everyone's hand, especially after she gained divine power with her first prayer. Wherever she went, there was a group of people chasing after her and flattering her.

Logically speaking, people born in slums would become corrupted once they experienced such a luxurious life, and Ella intended to use this to seduce Yun Shuo.

But Yun Shuo didn't, he still looked like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.

He enjoyed pickled cabbage and steamed buns, as well as steak and red wine; he put on coarse linen clothes directly, but disdained silk and satin clothes for being cumbersome; he took it for granted that his servants did work for him, but when no one was working, he would just leave a mess and clean up when he had time.

Ella even suspected that this person was born without a "pleasure" nerve, so he couldn't even distinguish between what was good and what was bad.

For every word Ella said, he would retort ten times. But Ella still owed him her life, and always felt inferior to Yun Shuo.

Over time, Ella couldn't help but become curious about the spirit of the ELO organization. "What kind of spirit do you guys have? How can there be idiots like you who refuse to take shortcuts?"

"The foolish ones are those of you who are so used to the sameness that you can't even accept the slightest change."

"Heh," Ella sneered, "Then I really want to see what happens if I treat other ELO people the same way I've treated you these days!"

"They will submit to you and be willing to be ordered around by you."

Ella looked at Yun Shuo in surprise, not understanding why he suddenly backed down in this heated argument. Did he finally figure it out?

Chapter 22: Invitation Letter

It is impossible to figure it out, it is impossible to figure it out in this lifetime.

"Then, you'll find that the number of people in the ELO organization is increasing. After you treat them like this one after another..." Yun Shuo exaggeratedly performed the etiquette of greeting people that he had recently learned. "Congratulations, Master Ella. You are already the undisputed commander of the ELO organization!"

"You!" Ella stood up with a jerk. She licked her upper teeth, quickly discovering the flaw in the other party's words. "The ELO organization is nothing more than that. You talk so gloriously, but to be honest, you're just asking for money. Your behavior is no different from those scammers and robbers."

"They're not asking for money, they're asking for life. All they want is to stay alive, not even to be dignified. That's why I say, if you can keep them all alive, the ELO organization will collapse!"

Ella remembered her father's words. She curled her lips and chuckled softly, "You're wrong. We don't need to keep them all alive. As long as I'm willing to keep a small number alive, the ELO organization will collapse on its own. However, I hope you understand that we, who are favored by the God of Machines, are supposed to be superior to you."

"Look, you're the robbers, and despicable ones at that." Yun Shuo also laughed. "Before being born into this country under the arrangement of the God of Machinery, everyone was equal. We were all chosen by the gods. But after being born into this country, different classes emerged. Is this something decided by the gods? It's your decision."

Ella wanted to continue arguing, but the appearance of a maid broke the tense atmosphere between the two. "Sir Ella, the city lord asked me to give you an invitation and requires you to appear."

"What invitation?"

"It's a party invitation from Lord Setash. He also invited the person next to you..." The maid didn't know how to address this man who had been flattered by her young lady in recent days but remained unmoved. She got stuck after saying "this person".

Fortunately, Ella didn't care about this. After taking the invitation, she waved the other party away.

The system, which had been silent for many days because of Yun Shuo's recent lying-down life, jumped out to deliver information when it saw this scene.

"Host, this Setash Lair is a villain just like you, a werewolf even more ruthless than a ruthless one. To inherit his mother's position, he killed his newborn sister at the age of seven, forcing his father to death. At the age of fifteen, he poisoned his mother and then framed his sister, sending them both away."

He also possesses divine powers, and his strength is considerable. However, host, don't worry about him dealing with you. Due to his personal psychological issues, he's very caring towards men, so he has always had a good reputation. Especially for men like you, he will definitely be very kind to you and will definitely treat you well!

Is this preferential treatment of yours legitimate?

Yun Shuo couldn't help but imagine the scene, and immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

Forget it, forget it, I'd better see if I can avoid going.

"What, you don't want to go?" Ella became excited when she heard Yun Shuo actively refuse.

Good man, things have changed, and it’s finally time for me, Ella, to punish you.

When she received the invitation, Ella suspected that Setash might have something to do with the previous assassination.

After all, I was saved by Yun Shuo during an assassination attempt, and you sent me an invitation to a banquet right after, and specifically asked Yun Shuo to go as well. It was a strange coincidence.

In this case, it would be safer to have a disguised guard with you rather than having Yun Shuo, the traitor, by your side.

Even though Yun Shuo had saved her once, it didn't mean he would save her a second time, especially since he had not only saved her once, but had also killed her once.

But, if Yun Shuo really doesn't want to go...

"You must go!" Ella grabbed Yun Shuo's hand and said, "Although I won't be with you the whole time tomorrow, I will send someone to watch you through the entire banquet."

At this moment, Ella's heart was filled with joy, and even the resentment that had made her speechless after being confronted by Yun Shuo disappeared without a trace.

Ever since he was "cuckolded" in front of others last time, Ah Dai turned his grief and anger into strength, searching everywhere for powerful characters with three stars or above, and then stepped up his efforts to quickly raise the other party's favorability to the maximum level to prove that he still has charm.

"What's cuckolding? I, Ah Dai, don't care at all, okay? As long as I have enough wives, no cuckold can catch up with me!" Ah Dai said self-paralyzedly, "Okay, let's invite the next wife, my dear Setash Lair. Those who don't understand yandere can leave."

【Ahhhhhhh, it’s my wife! 】

[Bet a coin, Ah Dai must die at least twice to reach the maximum favorability.]

Is this role difficult to obtain?

[It's not a question of whether it's difficult or not, it's just him, he's mentally ill, don't you understand? ]

[He's very cute when he's acting cute, but isn't it a bit outrageous to pull out a gun the next second?]

Is this gun legitimate?

Seriously, when I was playing his storyline, there were four options, and I died three times before I passed.

[This guy is a sadistic type, and he's a sadistic office worker.]

[It seems to be related to the player's customized gender. I think males seem to have an easier time.]

[What a coincidence, my Ah Dai is a female.]

"I remember its setting is similar to Cinderella." Ah Dai said as he flipped through the settings.

Setash has not been loved by his mother since he was born. His eldest sister looks at him as if he were a piece of air. The servants in the house just do their work obediently. No one will take the initiative to show kindness to him.

When he was seven years old, his sister was born. To him at that time, she was the only person in the world who was willing to hold his fingers and smile at him. However, his sister died of a sudden illness when she was less than five months old.

He thought the worst that could happen was a return to his old life, but his family blamed him for everything since he wasn't home at the time. After his father died of depression due to his sister's death, his life became even more difficult.

Everyone in his family avoided him like the plague, and he was often bullied at school. To survive, he fought hard and persevered, and fate finally showed him favor for the first time when he was fifteen.

The elder sister died after it was discovered that she had given her mother a chronic poison, and her mother died soon after.

He could finally live his life with his head held high.

Even though the scars of the past still remain on his heart...

Chapter 23: Mina's Provocation

Logically speaking, there would be basically no unfamiliar faces in a small gathering among the nobles, especially someone like Yun Shuo who you could tell at a glance had never attended a party before.

Yun Shuo had not received any standard etiquette education. His casual manners and nonchalant expression made him stand out among the elegant and smiling people at the table. Soon, people started to talk about him during the banquet.

"Who is that person? Has any illegitimate child inherited the family fortune recently? Lord Setash is really kind, throwing everything into the banquet." A pair of eyes hidden behind the gold-inlaid fan showed a mocking smile, and he talked jokingly with his friend beside him.

"You know his nature. To put it nicely, he's kind, but to put it bluntly, he's stupid," his friend replied in a low voice. "After all, no one could have imagined that he would be the heir who survived."

"Yeah, who would have thought? Someone like this, with such vulgar manners, looking like a bug that crawled out of some lowly place, actually has the right to sit in the same room with us. I always say that men can't manage a city. How can such illegitimate children have the right of inheritance? They are born pariahs and should be pariahs for the rest of their lives."

"Lord Ella will soon become the city lord. Hasn't the old city lord been in poor health? The party to welcome that adventurer was hosted by Lord Ella."
