Chapter 16: One Hundred Percent Lucky

"Moshi Moshi~"

"Ayumi-san~ I know it's you, tell me what you want to say." Ren stretched his aching muscles and said.

Ayumi was stunned for a moment and said, "Oh, Amamiya-san, I have good news for you! "Edgerunners" ranked 14th in the latest popularity survey, and it's now first among the four new works!"

Ren yawned, "Ah, is that so?"

Ayumi heard Ren's carefree tone over the phone and immediately said anxiously, "Amamiya-san, this is the first time "Edgerunners" has ranked first among new works. Aren't you excited?"

"It's alright, after all, it's just first among newcomers, I think that's fine." Ren thought for a moment and said.

'What's so surprising about this? As a transmigrant with cheats, he's also a plagiarist. In fact, he had already embarrassed transmigrats by astonishing everyone and reaching first place in popularity without even releasing the first episode.'

And it seems that "Edgerunners" has been serialized up to... the sixth episode.

The previous plot tells how the protagonist, David, installed "Sandevistan" and immediately showed his power to erase his previous shame. The heroine Lucy also appeared. After being discovered by David using "Sandevistan", she decided to cooperate with him to steal chips.

The plot started to look good, and then Lucy told David her half-dream, and David joined Maine's Edgerunners team by mistake.

The plot of "Edgerunners" was very slow at first, but in the middle and later stages, the plot became very violent.

It's the kind of violence that makes people emo after watching it, and even become a cyberpsycho.

Anyway, after finishing watching "Edgerunners" in his previous life, the first thing he did was go online and play a game he hadn't opened in a long time, and fiercely kill Adam Smasher.

It wasn't just once or twice. For several days after watching it, he was like that, using David's jacket to kill Adam Smasher and holding Rebecca's gun to kill Adam Smasher.

On the fourth day, he finally stopped killing Adam Smasher.

But that was because he had a sudden idea and embarked on a journey to find the scenes that appeared in "Edgerunners" in the game.

"Let's stop talking about that for now, Ayumi-san, I'm about to move here~" Ren said.

"Huh? Amamiya-san is moving? Moving where?"

"Nowhere..." Ren scratched his head. "I just moved into a larger three-bedroom, one-living room house in Takeda-ojisan's other rented property."

During this period, he earned a lot of money from "Edgerunners". He serialized six episodes in three months, each with 15 drawings. He earned over 300,000 yen.

With an income of 100,000 yen a month, he couldn't keep living in the original rental house, which was less than 20 square meters.

So he wanted to move to a bigger one. It just so happened that the landlord had a tenant who didn't renew the contract two months ago and was planning to return to their hometown for a renovation.

There was a vacant standard three-bedroom, one-living room apartment, and the rent wasn't cheap: 40,000 yen a month. This is still in the suburbs. It can only be said that it's worthy of Tokyo.

But for Ren, this is truly affordable.

The three-bedroom, one-living room rental house is not too big for him.

The three rooms allow him to divide the study, bedroom, and entertainment room, to be more comfortable.

So, he decisively proposed to the landlord to move, and he started moving today.

"That's right... Then I won't bother you, Sensei," Ayumi said politely.

"By the way, I moved, and it might not be convenient to answer the phone with this one. I'll buy a new one and open a new mobile number later, and then I'll contact you," Ren said.

At first, his rental house was near the landlord's convenience store, so it was naturally very convenient for him to use this landline phone to communicate.

But after moving, it was different. It took several minutes to go out to answer the phone. He thought about it and simply got his own private mobile phone and mobile number.

"Okay, Sensei." Ayumi nodded naturally, which was also very convenient for her work.

"Hey!" Ren put down the box full of drawings and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Woof, woof!" Pochita bit her doghouse and followed him to her new home.

"Pochita, you've worked hard." Ren helped Pochita put down the doghouse and then touched her head.

Three months later, Pochita had grown a bit bigger and was no longer the same puppy as before.

But she still looked like a puppy.

Judging by the breed, she should be a native Japanese shepherd dog. She's very smart, well-behaved, and very obedient.

Anyway, Ren and Sakura love Pochita.

"Woof, woof!" Pochita rubbed Ren's palm very affectionately.

Ren smiled and said, "Well, it's time to get a new mobile phone and a new number."

"But speaking of new mobile phones, by the way... system!"

In front of him, a high-tech virtual interface that only he could see suddenly appeared.

"Wow, I haven't seen it in a while! There are so many points, and there's an extra skill!"

Ren's eyes lit up.

After opening the task list, the completed tasks were directly removed, leaving only those that had not been completed and the "Genius" stage task.

"What is this 100% Luck skill?"

He observed the new skill with some curiosity. It was just a silver-level skill, and it didn't seem very strong.

He saw his mind move and a detailed entry for 100% Luck appeared.
