“Why are you sighing, Your Highness?” Juicy asked as she looked at the moon fruit in the emperor’s hand.
“Just wishing this emperor had more slots in my harem… But I really need to do this... “ he said, making Harper who was standing to the side and listing glare at him hatefully. All men are perverts!
Last night he made her sleep with him again but this time his hands were not honest… Damn it, she couldn’t sleep all night, especially with Juice sleeping on the other side, she was really worried she would make a voice and wake her up.
MANIPULATIVE BASTARD!
Damn it! why couldn't she keep him out of her mind!
“Let’s get on with it! After you consume the fruits here you will be transported to the next level!” the emperor said. “The next level will be a waiting room where you just need to relax for a bit until enough participants pass. The real trouble is after that. The battlegrounds… Everyone will kill everyone there and only a few must survive, so just use the wooden shield I gave you to parry attacks and keep running if you encounter a strong enemy!”
“Will artifacts work?” Juicy asked as she inspected the rough wooden shield the emperor gave her. It was very strange.
“No… But this shield is made of special wood harvested from some dungeon... I bought it for a lot of money so take care of it. Even a magical attack would not be able to break this thing!” he said. “Now, let’s start with Liam! Eat this!” the emperor said, giving Liam one moon fruit.
Liam frowned then took it.
“I will make sure to return all the things I have borrowed from you… Just come find me at blue river city!” Liam said as he ate the fruit. “I will also find you 30 fat girls to repay for saving my life three times!” he added before he finished his fruit and a bright light surrounded him.
Moments later he disappeared into thin air.
“Rest in peace!” the emperor said.
“He is not dead you know!” juicy said.
“Yeah… But he is so cute, thinking he could escape my contract this easily…” the emperor shook his head as he gave Juicy a ring.
“What is this?” Juicy asked nervously as Harper glared at both of them.
“A storage ring… Inside of it, This emperor left something for you, a gift of sorts, for serving me these days…” he said.
“You think we will not meet later here?” Juicy asked, squinting her eyes.
“This place has more than 1200 players… The chance of us meeting is minimal!” he lied.
“Oh…”
“By the way, This emperor has long realized that you are very strong and have been hiding your true power from me… So if you meet Harper or Liam later, make sure to protect them!” the emperor told her. Juicy never really displayed her power on this level, as the emperor really did most of the fighting whenever they encountered danger.
“How did you realize that?” Juicy asked.
“Next time when you hug someone to sleep, use less force… This emperor was almost squeezed to death!” he said pushing the storage ring into her hand.
“Oh…” she blushed as she put the ring he gave her in her pocket before biting and eating the moon fruit without a comment. This one tasted like a very sour plum... But she just wanted to eat it and escape the grasp of this perverted emperor!
“Here’s a piece of advice, when the chaos happens in the end, don’t act, the die had already been cast, and you will change nothing. Just lay low, there is more than one hunter for the grand prize!” the emperor suddenly said just as she chewed. “Your friends Rain and Rea have already crossed to the next level… Be sure to find them, they might need your help my dear Turnip…” he added just as she swallowed then began to vanish… He chose to deliver his words at exactly that moment, diverting her attention.
She looked at him with shock as she disappeared. She realized that he had been scamming her all this time. This bastard must have known her real identity!
Damn!
She wanted to question him, but she didn't get a chance as she vanished. She didn’t even have to correct him that her name was Tulip and not Turnip!
“So cold even when getting scammed… Now I just need to find a few rabbits to kill and replace the slot… So troublesome…” the emperor said with a bright smile, then turned and looked at Harper who had been trying to keep her distance from him since last night.
“Now it is your turn, dear imperial concubine…” he said as he walked toward her.
“We are only engaged now…” she said, but couldn’t continue as he suddenly hugged her. She closed her eyes and waited reluctantly for his forceful kiss, but it never happened as she felt his weight suddenly slump into her as he fell to the ground.
She quickly opened her eyes and noticed the pale face of the unconscious collapsed emperor.
…
“Thanks, sister blue!” Rea took the moon fruit from Lin and ate it directly. Blue was the name Lin used here to hide her true identity.
“We are only missing one fruit each now…” Lily said as she watched Rain also eat his fruit, this guy was super strange. The fruit he was eating was a real one, but it was not affecting him at all.
Lily, who was very sensitive to souls, was sure of this. According to Victor, this guy had some strange curse that makes him attractive to demons. This could be probably the reason… His soul was already in a malleable state, so this fruit didn’t affect him at all!
Strangely enough, she didn’t really encounter rain in her previous life, he was not a part of Tulip's entourage. Something must have happened!
“Dear Red, is there something on my handsome face?” Rain asked as he watched Lily look at him. He had been trying to see what was under her mask for the last week but kept failing... He needed to act carefully so that Rea would not hate him!
“Just wondering whether punishing you would correct that crooked attitude of yours…” Lily said. Red was the name she was using here.
“My attitude is fine… It is your attitude of acting like a big sister all the time that needs correction… It is like some old lady…” he said.
“Do you want this old lady to kick that ass of yours… Don’t think that I didn’t notice you snooping around our ladies' sleeping bag last night!” Lily said. They were using only one big bag to sleep together, to bond with Rea. Although Lily was reluctant, she knew how important getting a scion friend like Rea was.
“Do you know that for a second there, when I met you I considered you a refined lady… Who knew that you are just a man hater!” he said, shaking his head. “All your perverted assumptions are false! I just wanted to protect you!”
“You are the one who needs protection! If it was not for me and Blue, you would have not found the fruits so quickly!” she said. She could smell the fruits a mile away thanks to her sensitive nose.
“Who knows! You haven't tried my strength yet! You are just....”
“Sister Red… Rain… Please stop fighting…” Rea suddenly yelled after finishing her fruit that tasted like a pear. “We are all one team here!”
“Rea… You are siding with them now?” rain asked, acting a little hurt.
“I am not!” Rea said coldly, she was already familiar with his acting skills, and without Tulip to keep him in check he was getting more and more brazen. “We need to work together,” she said. “Look… it is…” she paused as she noises a voice from the forest.
Lily and Lin also heard it and looked to the side as Rain prepared his weapon.
It keeps coming closer like a herd of buffaloes heading in their direction.
They looked at each other and then nodded. Lily and Lin quickly jumped to a nearby tree while carrying Rea who was not a player with them. Rain quickly followed.
It was just in time as many people who seemed to be fleeing something began appearing in the distance between the trees.
“HELPPPPPPPPPPPPP!” The one leading them was screaming in a very enchanting voice. She was a very pretty and very familiar haggard blond girl. She was so amazing that Rain had to swallow twice after looking at her.
Behind them as if keeping the pace, there was a group of rabbits hopping peacefully according to some strange rhythm.
Lily looked at Lin, then began to move to the side before the crowd arrived. Rain didn’t he was too enchanted to move.
“Rain! Come here!” Rea, who was in Lin’s arms, scolded making him quickly wake up from his enchantment.
“... I need to save that girl! It will just take a moment!” Rain said with a firm voice then began heading toward the pretty girl in the front to save her.
“Rain!” Rea screamed at him, but he just winked at her before turning and hurrying toward the blond girl whom Lily quickly realized that it was none other than Alex.
Rain quickly positioned himself on the top of a tree on the girl’s path, then descended after quickly tying himself with a rope intending to fish her from above. Sadly this didn’t work. Alex, who felt something falling from the top of her head, insincerely kicked it away with all her strength without even looking!
Poor Rain had no chance to realize what happened when he flew in a parabolic trajectory into the distance!
“RAIN!” Rea exclaimed fearfully.
“Don’t worry that idiot is still alive… Let’s go check how many bones got broken in that shameless ass of his,” Lily said as she carefully watched the rabbits. They all turned and watched Rain paint a rainbow of blood in the sky, they seemed to have intended to go after him, but as if receiving a command they all flinched at once, then turned around ignoring Rain, and continued after Alex and her ‘cursed entourage’.
Victor who had been communicating with her was right, those guys behind those trials seemed to be totally aware of Alex’s fate, and they too were totally lost on how to deal with her other than keeping her unhappy!
Right… Victor… That bastard was definitely hiding something. The way he was talking to her without explaining what he was doing lately, was the same way a cheering husband who was hiding another family across the country would do!
She felt an urgent need to finish with this floor and go find that pervert!
…
The small drone slowly drifted near the ground until it reached the mansion’s fence near a large tree where it slowly flew up, keeping with the fence then going down again when it barely reached the top.
Infiltration success!
ANONYMOUS 80085: WOW GLORIA, THAT WAS ONE SMOOTH OPERATION
ANONYMOUS 800850005: YEAH… BUT I JUST HAVE A FEELING THAT THIS IS GOING TOO EASY
ANONYMOUS 800858008: HOPEFULLY WE WILL BE ABLE TO SEE SOME OF THE RUMORED BRIDES
ANONYMOUS 8008: AREN'T GLORIA’S BOOBS ENOUGH FOR YOU?

ANONYMOUS 800818008180081: THANKS IT WORKS!
“Yes, the drone is being controlled by our cameraman here. He is an expert who served 19 years in the army recon unit!” Gloria said, silently cursing for the tenth time as she noticed the user names. It seemed like forcefully making the user names on the stream anonymous was a failure. “Let’s continue!” she said.
The drone that descended to the ground, made its way between the bushes slowly, keeping its distance from the main route.
ANONYMOUS 0: THIS IS BORING! WHEN WILL WE SEE SOME ACTION?
ANONYMOUS 80085555: RELAX, EXECUTING A CRIME NEEDS PATIENCE!
ANONYMOUS 800850005: HOW DO YOU KNOW WHERE TO GO? WE CAN'T SEE A THING!
ANONYMOUS 711: WHERE IS THIS COOKIE THING?
ANONYMOUS 80082: USE A BROWSER EXTENSION!
ANONYMOUS 711: DAMN IT DON'T HAVE THOSE ON MY WHITE BANANA PHONE!
“Don’t worry, we know where we are going! We got the mansion’s plan from the city hall, although they are not accurate, many of the main features are the same!” Gloria explained proudly. She had to use her ‘talents’ to get those plans, but she would never say that, or many of the fans would request a demonstration! “We are now starting by heading to the gym, it is the closest building to our direction!” Gloria said as the drone made its way hopping from tree to tree, trying to reduce its noise as much as possible until the gym was visible.
Then it had to stop.
A young maid was passing next to it as she swept the fallen leaves from the path…She was singing some kind of song…
….u chu…
Tonight I rode his train again…
It was faster than a plane!
Chu chu...
Her voice trailed off…
ANONYMOUS 80085555: WHAT WAS THAT SONG?
ANONYMOUS 0: I DON’T KNOW, BUT MY BLOOD BOILED JUST HEARING IT FROM THE MOUTH OF THAT LOLI… ARE THEY DOING SOME COSPLAY PARTY HERE?
ANONYMOUS 80082: PROBABLY NOT… I HEARD THAT THOSE RICH BASTARD ALWAYS HAS SOME STRANGE HOBBIES!
ANONYMOUS 8008: I WANT STRANGE HOBBIES LIKE THOSE TOO!
ANONYMOUS 0: YOU ALREADY HAVE…
ANONYMOUS 80085555: WE ALL DO… WE JUST DON’T HAVE THE FINANCIAL MEANS TO PURSUE THEM!
“Indeed!” Gloria said, “Let’s continue, soon we will reach the GYM, we are taking a roundabout route toward the man in the mansion to avoid detection!” she said as the drone lifted from the tree and then began heading toward the Gym.
BANG!
Suddenly something hit it making it stop in its tracks and fall to the ground in one swoop… It was a net that someone launched at it!.
“I got it!” some girl said from a distance.
“It fell somewhere here…” another said.
Moments later two very pretty red-haired twin girls appeared in the drone’s camera frame, frowning as they looked at it. One of them reached for it and grabbed it. The image was lost seconds later, but the sound was not. It lasted long enough to hear the crashing sound and what the girl said afterward.
“It is a close-range one… Send the hounds and the chicks to search the perimeter!”
“DAMN IT! We need to run….” Gloria yelled and the streaming feed ended.
The young man, who was watching the show with a half-empty box of high-quality tissues at his side, didn’t move.
He was in shock as the screen turned black with a DISCONNECTED message. It took him a while to figure out what he just saw. He jumped abruptly from his chair and then ran out of the room.
“MOM! I found them…” he yelled as he headed downstairs. “MOM!” he kept yelling! “...My sisters!....”
“KYAAAAAAA! Michael! You damn pervert! put your damn pants on when you leave your f*cking room!”
