That wasn’t wrong, but it was more like a threshold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you were too stupid or talked too much nonsense, she would lose interest instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But once you crossed that threshold, it was a different story.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, Foolishness had a bad habit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She loved analyzing people she found interesting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was like there was a system in her head that would shock her if she didn’t analyze at least one person a day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During conversations, she would automatically dissect the other person’s personality and motives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But all of that depended on one thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You had to make her curious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she got curious about you, she’d keep talking to you no matter what. You couldn’t shake her off even if you tried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And if the conversation satisfied her, she could probably die smiling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rita had experience with that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right now, after hearing about the four bullets, Foolishness had clearly taken the bait.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This gun, you really took it from Foolishness and then she forced it back into your hands?\" Quiet Mountain Foolishness asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, Rita only nodded and didn’t elaborate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two seconds passed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quiet Mountain Foolishness continued, \"How many ways do you know to obtain special bullets?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rita’s eyes lit up. She sensed an opportunity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She held up one finger, then explained in detail,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As long as I get all the gods to watch me, I can obtain one special bullet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quiet Mountain Foolishness said, \"Tell me about Starsea Foolishness. Show me those four bullets. In exchange, I’ll tell you a method you don’t know.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rita couldn’t help thinking that the two versions of Foolishness weren’t all that different at their core.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike with Byme, she didn’t hesitate or demand the answer first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She directly took out the four bullets and tossed them over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the bullets and revolver were a set, she could recall them at any time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as she was about to start explaining her encounters with Starsea Foolishness, Quiet Mountain Foolishness extended a finger and tapped the air toward her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dustfire’s trick was interfering with our conversation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rita opened her mouth again and realized the negative effect from Let It Die was gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She could speak normally now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dustfire is from your era?\" she asked, then corrected herself, \"Did Dustfire also go to Quiet Mountain back then?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quiet Mountain Foolishness replied simply, \"It specializes in curses.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rita immediately followed up, \"So the luck effect on me was removed too?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quiet Mountain Foolishness gave a faint, ambiguous smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you enjoy placing everything on something as intangible as luck?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rita smiled back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I just ate Dustfire’s lucky bento and became the luckiest person in the world. That’s how I happened to run into you right after you woke up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had already decided. From now on, she’d eat one of Dustfire’s bentos every day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quiet Mountain Foolishness: \"......\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even B80 frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rita blinked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m just stating facts. Why are you both looking at me like that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"BS Rita. I’ll remember that name,\" Quiet Mountain Foolishness said, scanning her up and down with a slight frown. \"Maybe it’s your appearance and aura.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she wasn’t speaking, she seemed calm and distant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the moment she started talking and smiling, something about her just felt... off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Strange.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The small robot beside her hugged the Gacha Machine and nodded vigorously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their Mechanoids had plenty of experience with this. Many had fallen victim before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rita took a deep breath and forced a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Let’s get back to business.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She dropped the topic of luck. Whether it was gone or not, there was nothing she could do about it anyway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Go on,\" said Quiet Mountain Foolishness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Foolishness noticed me very early on. Back then, I was still...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rita started from Chaotic Blocks, focusing on the part where Foolishness relentlessly hunted her down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Halfway through, she suddenly paused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some details had grown fuzzy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She took out her coin and spun it on the ground repeatedly, trying to retrieve the memory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After spinning it tens of thousands of times, she realized something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she strongly wanted to recall a specific memory, or subconsciously focused on a target, the coin would play the relevant memory for her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A gust of cold wind passed by.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rita noticed that Quiet Mountain Foolishness, who had been sitting several meters away, was now right beside her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was staring at the coin with clear curiosity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What is that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rita pocketed the coin and explained, \"A memory coin I made myself. After combining several items, it became a Starsea relic.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing how interested Foolishness looked, Rita couldn’t help asking,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re really interested?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That wasn’t an empty question.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the moment she appeared, Rita had openly displayed at least half of her items.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wrathful Moon and Cat’s Ideal floated nearby.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her Player Relic hung visibly around her neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the Gacha Machine on B80 was in plain sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And yet, Quiet Mountain Foolishness had only shown interest in two things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Foolishness Game.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And My Sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for what those two had in common...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My Sigh had fused with Soul Catcher.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the core game inside Soul Catcher, Truth or Dare, Truth and Truth or Dare, Dare...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Had been designed by Foolishness herself.\u003C\u002Fp>",1025,"2026-06-06T06:15:32.213Z",1,"novelbin.me","4160757710a6207f31e7f75f26b8be9d7b05dfa1a3d443d1a757320d7d14e56c","this-life-i-will-be-the-protagonist-chapter-1301","this-life-i-will-be-the-protagonist-chapter-1299",1404,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthis-life-i-will-be-the-protagonist-cover.jpg"]
