My Bothersome Life - Chapter 387
I quickly stepped away from him as he turned into a puddle of black goo from my slight touch. I felt a little bad as I didn’t mean to kill him. I thought A-class monsters would be stronger, but at the same time, I had almost exhausted all my mana in trying to chase him. Tightening my grasp on the headgear, I looked for a place to enter the game.
I frowned as I tried to find a room where I could lay down. Unfortunately, the entire mansion had been trashed to the point of no return. The entire garden had been burnt down while the lower floors of the mansion had been filled with water. But the Roselia family was wealthy enough to easily replace all the things anyways.
“Is there a room in the mansion that isn’t damaged?” I turned to Luke.
“You’re not thinking of playing the game, are you?” Luke seemed stunned.
“I didn’t take the rest of the nineteen hours yet,” I quickly hid the headgear behind my back.
I flinched when the barrier shattered, making the sunlight drift back into the mansion grounds. Meanwhile, it appeared there were the people waiting to come into our mansion for the meeting that Lucius had called. The barrier had been blocking them from coming inside the entire time. Everyone’s face paled when they stared at the ruined mansion. It reminded them of the school that was in ruins before we escaped.
“Oh you can resume the meeting. I just recently got rid of another A-class monster for you,” I waved to the people outside the gate.
Lucius quickly opened the gate for them even though there was no way we could hold the meeting inside the mansion anymore. However, none of them came inside, still staring at the scene in front of them in awe. I took the chance to skip out of the gates to go up to Ben. I was sure there would be more headgears at his house in case this one ran out of power.
“Do you have an extra room at your house? I still need to level up,” I asked Ben.
“I don’t,” Ben gulped.
“I’m sure you do. It took me a lot of effort to get this headgear from that monster that I accidentally killed him. I don’t want to make the same mistake again so give me a room with more headgears,” I brightly smiled.
When Ben looked at Luke and Lucius for help, they both turned away. They knew how I wasn’t in my right mind. I continued to smile while I waited for his response. I really didn’t want to destroy more mansions today to find more headgears after this one died.
“I have an extra room,” Ben noticed my swirling eyes with only the thoughts of playing the game.
“Thank you,” I waited for a hover car to come.
“She’s addicted, isn’t she?” Ben whispered to Lucius once they entered the car.
“Rika still has nineteen more hours left in her turn,” Lucius warned him not to touch any of the headgears during that time.
“My harem and leveling up,” I happily hummed.
Ben led me to a room with gaming paradise. Not only there was more headgears but other virtual reality machines. My eyes sparkled as I glided my hands over some of them. There was even a gaming pod where it was made for laying down for longer periods of time. I could also spot the virtual library with a bunch of comic books and light novels. Big TV screens were included so anyone could see movies and the scene inside the headgear.
“I don’t want to leave,” My eyes sparkled.
I decided to enter the gaming pod first. I was interrupted when I was taking pictures of Muimeme. I hoped she was still online as I entered the game. Switching into my ikemen mode, I found her in the centre of the village square.
“Muimeme! Pose for me!” I got my camera out.
“You left me alone last time,” she sulked.
“I’m sorry, someone took away the headgear since I had to take turns with another person,” I sighed.
“This is the only time, ok?” She did a magical girl pose this time.
“MuiLover!” Someone interrupted us.
“Thanks for the potions! Do you want to conquer this dungeon together? Oni-chan?” She cutely tilted her head when I didn’t respond.
She was another game character I was trying to recruit into the harem. Her bright coloured clothes and innocent smile was almost aligned with the little sister type. I almost abandoned Muimeme to turn to take some pictures of her.
“We can go to a dungeon closer to the demon’s king castle this time,” I lightly patted her head.
“Me too! Me too!” Muimeme pouted.
I smiled as I patted their heads with both of my hands. It was nice being this tall, seeing things in another perspective. I quickly equipped myself before walking towards the teleportation square. The three of us teleported to the entrance to ancient ruins. I pulled out my sword before opening the door for them.
“Why is this dungeon so quiet?” Muimeme searched for some demons to kill.
“Oni-chan, hold my arm, I’m scared,” the little sister type looked up to me.
“You don’t have to ask Yuriri,” I offered her my arm.
As I ventured further into the dungeon, I found a level ten goblin. Lifting my arms to slash the goblin, I grinned from how easy it would be to kill monsters here. Meanwhile, Muimeme and Yuriri cheered me on from the back. Ahhh. This was the life I wanted.
