Chapter 80 | Please Stop Possessing Me, Lord Evil God!

Despite her shame, a part of Grinya felt a sense of pride.

After all, this was one of the few advantages she could still offer.

So much time had passed, and the evil god had not reacted at all.

It seemed that even the great evil god had been deeply shocked by her beauty.

How could she not feel proud of that?

Hehehe!

Her thoughts drifted further and further away, until something in her vision shifted with a slight blur.

Her consciousness snapped back, but she suddenly froze.

Was it an illusion? Why did it feel like her pride and joy, her twin peaks, had become smaller?

No, no, that was impossible. How could breasts just shrink for no reason? The evil god wasn't such a shallow deity either. It had to be an illusion, just an illusion...

Her mind suddenly went quiet, falling into a heavy silence.

Because she suddenly realized...

The evil god actually seemed to be a very shallow deity.

Just as she began to overthink again, her vision suddenly cleared. The milky-white objects obstructing her view vanished instantly, allowing her to see her small black leather shoes with perfect clarity.

She was stunned...

Then, the voice of that great being returned:

"Done."

Done...

Done with what?

Done with... her chest?

Grinya's eyes lost their focus, her gaze filled with utter despair.

No—!

Her silent voice screamed in agony within her body. That ultimate despair reached a peak of emotion, breaking through some kind of seal and reaching a certain place.

"No—!"

"Huh?" Lu Xun looked around in confusion. "Did I just hear a scream? Am I hallucinating again?"

"How strange. Is it because I haven't slept? Am I hearing things?"

Lu Xun pondered for a moment but decided to finish the current plot point first.

【Peerless Fencer's loyalty has decreased by 20 points, currently at 79 points.】

"What?" Lu Xun's eyes widened. He shot up from his chair, his face almost pressing against the screen to read the line of text that had popped up.

Are you kidding me, bro!

What was going on? He just modified the bust size, and the character's loyalty dropped by 20 points!

Was it really that serious?

And what even was this loyalty thing?

Lu Xun found the game help menu. Within the wall of text that looked like an academic paper, he successfully found the description for loyalty.

"Loyalty represents the rapport between the character and the player. The higher the loyalty, the higher the character's performance stats and the lower the probability of betrayal. The lower the loyalty, the lower the performance stats, and the character may even actively betray the player."

"..."

Lu Xun fell silent after reading the entry.

Luckily he had restrained his impulses and didn't make any other bizarre modifications. If he had turned her into some freakish monster, he felt the Peerless Fencer's loyalty would have dropped to zero instantly.

Then he would have been stuck playing that male furry character.

Where did this loyalty setting come from? Why hadn't he seen it before? Was it added in this hotfix?

Lu Xun scratched his head.

There was no other way. To get through this idiotic passage, modifying the bust size was a necessity. He could just change it back once he was through.

Without those two heavy burdens, Grinya indeed managed to pass through the narrow alley with ease, moving almost without resistance.

However, the view was incredibly dark. He couldn't see anything clearly, even after turning the in-game brightness to the maximum.

'I should probably adjust the gamma settings before playing next time. This is so inconvenient.'

As Lu Xun thought this, an option suddenly popped up on the pitch-black interface.

【Dark Alley (High Risk), Recommended Level: 40.】

A hidden dungeon!

Lu Xun's eyes lit up.

A dungeon meant good loot.

At least, he had never lost out on any dungeon in this game so far. It seemed he had made the right choice with this side quest.

Hehehe!

With a predatory grin, he entered the dungeon.

As for the recommended level, he didn't even glance at it.

As a skilled player, what was the point of playing if you couldn't solo monsters at a higher level?

He had never failed a high-level challenge in this game, so Lu Xun was naturally full of confidence.

Of course, he didn't count that level 60 incident. That was a scripted death, and Lu Xun refused to accept it.

【Entering map...】

【Loading map...】

...

Unlike her previous entry into Wuxin Island, where she experienced a period of mental blankness, this time Grinya only felt the world spinning. Her head throbbed with dizziness, and then suddenly, the view opened up as she tumbled out of the narrow alley.

She temporarily regained sensation in her body, but she knew it was only for a moment. The evil god... no, that damned evil god would be back in a bit.

She looked down at her chest. Although the cardboard box on her head made it difficult to see,

Difficulty was one thing; being unable to see anything was another.

She really couldn't see her pride and joy anymore!

Even when she reached out her hands, she could no longer feel that soft presence!

No!

Why would he do this to her!

She sat on the ground and wailed. Though not a single tear fell, she looked heart-broken.

"Ahem!"

A heavy cough interrupted her crying.

She froze, then stiffly turned her head. Standing before her was a pair of straight, snow-white legs.

She slowly looked up and saw the look of utter disdain on Gexi's face.

Furthermore, Gexi was dragging a conscious-less man behind her.

"..."

Grinya realized this person meant trouble. She tried to play it off. "Actually, I'm just passing by. I didn't see anything, haha." She stood up and laughed twice without a hint of embarrassment before turning to leave.

The narrow alley was right there. Just as she prepared to squeeze back in, her head hit something, making her cry out in pain.

"Don't waste your breath. I've already sealed this place. Now, you can only enter, but you cannot leave," Gexi said with a smile, though it was a cold one.

She looked at the foolish cardboard man and sneered again.

"So, you all planned for me to duck in here, hoping to launch a pincer attack to take me down?"

Her smile was full of confidence, looking as if she had seen through their entire plan.

"I was a bit startled when you first crawled out, but it makes sense now that I think about it. Isn't this exactly the kind of tactic your cult usually uses?" She looked down at Mike, who had been beaten into a pulp. "Unfortunately, you underestimated the gap between us. One level 10 apprentice mage and one level 20 top-tier mage, and you think you can take me down together?"

She shook her head, her tone dripping with pity.

"How delusional."

As a genius diviner, seeing through the levels of other mages was basic skill for her. The two people before her were like open books. She only needed to move a finger to see what their Life Star skills and Life Crown talents were.
