P..Pretend to be her boyfriend?

"Just wait a minute. Why do you guys go to the lift first? I'd like to do some extra shopping." Taiyi said.

Taiyi let the three people go first towards the giant bird's beak, which was actually a deep and narrow passage through which they could leave Magic Bazaar by the lift.

As the three of them walked away, Taiyi opened the game's shopping screen.

[WELCOME! My dear brave, do you have any "special needs" today?]

Lolly, the dwarf, was hiding behind a cloud in the shopping interface, looking very happy.

"Give me this and deduct it from the advance on my account." Taiyi pointed to an item and ordered.

"Uh...This one? You sure? Players cannot use this prop; you can only transfer it as a gift if you buy it." Lolly stressed.

"I totally understand your policy; shut up." Taiyi was impatient, "Give it to me now!"

"Okay~"

With a ding-dong, a heavy brick-like item fell into Taiyi's arms.

He rubbed his fingers over the entire surface of the "brick"; the inky blue velvet fabric was extra unique to the touch. It was a special prop that he paid AU$99 for.

Taiyi walked up quickly, and then he shoved the whole giant brick to Caroline, who was empty-handed.

"A birthday present for you."

"How did you know my birthday was ... Oh my gosh! This must be a costly gift, right?!"

Caroline was shocked as she opened the ink-blue velvet cloth bag, and inside was a giant magic book!

"Don't worry, it's not expensive." Taiyi patted Caroline's shoulder as he said gently, "Learn it well; you'll definitely become a professional magician!"

"Not just a wizard, Caroline," Luckiey shook the hand of this country girl from the Pacificia continent, "Sister Caroline, you will become a great wizard, and the whole world will remember your name. "

---Exit the game ---

Taiyi climbs out of the game pod once again; he now feels like he has an excellent gaming experience!

The gentle Caroline, the smart Luckiey, and the Haonan treat him like a "half-brother"!

Taiyi is looking forward to his future in the game.

The Vampire Castle?

Their team will make it out of the game! And there would be no attrition!

Just then, he found his phone lit up, tapping on the message to find an angry emoji inside.

[Huge Rain: Where are you?! Why are you offline?!]

[Huge Rain: I've been rushing around all day to see you! A whole day!]

Huge Rain was originally 6 hours away from the Redcoral Town, and he had wasted a whole day rushing to get into the B-level mission of "the Vampire Castle".

As a result, Huge Rain had just arrived at the outskirts of the Redcoral Town when he received the message that "Grand Magus" was offline!

This is outrageous! It's unforgivable!

[Grand Magus: I'm sorry, but our team has run out of playtime, so we've been forced to go offline.]

[Grand Magus: I'll pull you into the team tomorrow, okay? (,'-ω-)ノ" ('っω-｀.)]

Just as Taiyi thought he should add a few more words to comfort the adolescent teenager, Huge Rain's message came in.

[Huge Rain: Okay, that's all right.]

[Huge Rain: And! Don't! Repeat! That! Again!]

Wow, so many exclamation points; what a childish act.

Taiyi couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth as he snickered.

Taiyi thought silently in his mind, "Forget it; let's just start a group chat."

Since we are already a group, why not let Huge Rain have a sense of "team belonging" and communicate directly in the group to avoid invalid conversations.

[You have created a group chat, and you have been invited to "Bestie Warrior", "Lucky Priest", and "Huge Rain".]

[Grand Magus: Aloha, we're all on the same team, so we can communicate here from now.]

[Bestie Warrior: As my name suggests, I am a warrior.]

[Lucky Priest: Support class player. Just do yourselves; my auxiliary TEC will always follow you guys.]

[Huge Rain: ASSASSIN.]

What a cool boy, without any greetings.

Just as Taiyi was about to close the chat screen, he realized that he had thought of Haonan too maturely.

[Bestie Warrior modified the group name: We are family (4)]

[Huge Rain modified the group name: Vampires will be the souls of my sword (4)]

[Bestie Warrior: I don't like this name! It's unpleasant! Rejection!]

[Lucky Priest: ... Can you be less childish, warrior brother.]

With a long sigh, Luckiey finally settled this cyber dispute.

[Lucky Priest changed the group name: Professional Demon Hunters (4)]

[Grand Magus&Huge Rain&Bestie Warrior: Okay, No problem.]

Fortunately, Lucky Priest was there to mediate and avoid an Internet war of words, Taiyi said.

"Are you hungry? Let's have something to eat?" Minna sent him a text message.

Taiyi touched his stomach; after spending almost eight hours in the game, he was undoubtedly hungry.

"Where to eat? Let me pick you up." Taiyi said while taking off his VR game body suit and typing.

"Just the street where we used to eat when we were kids; I'll wait for you at your community's entrance."

Minna and Taiyi live very close to each other; they are neighbors by three miles.

Not long after, Taiyi rode his electric Ferrari - an electric motorcycle - to Minna's position on time.

Minna was wearing a long bohemian floral dress, and her thick black curly hair was cascading behind her, looking both elegant and saintly.

"Taiyi I! Here! ~" she smiled as she stood at the side of the road and waved at Taiyi, who was wearing a helmet.

"Sorry, no Ferrari at the moment. Can only take you on an electric bike." Taiyi pulled the electric motorcycle firmly to the curb, and he scratched his head a little awkwardly.

"Why do you think I would mind that?"

Minna laughed; she jumped sideways onto the seat of the electric scooter directly behind Taiyi; she was wearing a long skirt.

It was not convenient for her to sit down with her legs wide open like an average person; she could only sit sideways on the seat with her legs together.

"It feels like you were in high school and took me home on your bike," Minna said.

"Well, same."

Taiyi looked at Minna's face in the rearview mirror. Minna was not wearing any makeup, but her face was still as pretty and impressive as Taiyi remembered.

The hot summer wind lifted Minna's long hair, and her hair seemed to speak as if it was shouting, "I'm free!"

Minna's long and slender arms held Taiyi's waist, and everything looked so beautiful.

At a humble roadside stall, Minna and Taiyi chose their midnight snack, a steaming bowl of wontons.

"The taste of Shanghai." Minna lamented as she blew softly on the air.

Taiyi nodded as he gently stirred the chilled green bean soup aside with one chopstick and was staring at Minna, who was struggling with the hot steam.

She's so cute eating, like a cautious bunny, Taiyi sighed inwardly.

"Taiyi, can you pretend to be my boyfriend?"

Behind the steaming white mist, Minna blinked her eyes and looked innocent.
