Early Exit \u002F 3. Game Simulation\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>90% Discount Voucher: Allows you to purchase one item from the Exchange at only 10% of its listed price. The remaining Block cost will be covered by the Divine Game system.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Early Exit: Allows you to exit this Divine Game session 6 hours early without losing qualification for final rewards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Game Simulation: Select one attraction to simulate a trial run. Simulation lasts 10 minutes in-game and only 1 second in real time. Usable 3 times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now this was a real surprise—blessing and curse bundled together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hidden achievement was called \"Fine, I Admit I'm Popular\"—though in Rita's opinion, it should've been named \"Please Stop Inviting Me, I'm Tired.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just based on the name, it might seem like the only way to hop between parks was through other players' Forced Invitations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But considering the brutal six-hour time limit, Rita figured that such cross-park travel was only common in the first six hours—and maybe even only possible via Forced Invites during that period. Afterward? Who knew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to the \"I Can't Take a Hint\" reward she earned earlier for assembling a potion bottle Block, this was leagues better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once again, the three rewards clearly aligned with offensive, defensive, and strategic playstyles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The 90% Discount Voucher wasn't strictly an offensive tool, but in contrast to the other two, its meaning shifted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because only players who not only competed but also collected rare gear from others would choose it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you just wanted to buy back something you'd lost, the Early Exit or Game Simulation options were far more cost-effective.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But used wisely, the latter two could save you enough Block to buy back several fragments. Definitely better than spending the voucher just to repurchase your own losses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To Rita, the Discount Voucher was a veiled weapon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only someone dead set on collecting gear—on completing something—would pick it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She imagined what she would do if she were the owner of the elusive Game Machine That Loves Games.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If a nine-piece relic kept getting lost, until she only had one or two pieces left and no realistic way to get the rest—what then?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She'd list those final fragments at a premium.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she wanted to profit, she'd set a painful but not impossible price, hoping the collector would cough up the Block.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she wanted revenge, she'd list them so high that no one could afford them, shattering any hope of completion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Either way, a 90% Discount Voucher would be a crucial safety net.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With her mind made up, Rita chose the voucher without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A multicolored, rectangular Block appeared before her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she stowed it, Nivalis began nudging her repeatedly with the tip of her wing, jabbing toward the front.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rita frowned. \"What is it?\" she asked, lifting her head—only to be greeted by a line of Block legs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her gaze traveled upward: so many tails... and then, locking eyes with a pair of round button-like pupils.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nine Block tails in total—most of them white, but the tips of the topmost ones were black.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The figure standing in front of her wasn't overloaded with Blocks but still had a solid presence, roughly Rita's size.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the nine-tailed Block fox realized Rita had seen them, two smaller foxes flanking her stepped forward and planted their paws on the bumper car's hood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mistblade stood behind them, arms crossed, peering down at Rita from above.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In smooth fox-tongue, she said, \"So you're BS-Rita, huh.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>B8017913 translated dutifully: \"So you're BS-Rita, huh.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rita: \"…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a second, she had the surreal sense of being cornered after school by a bunch of mean girls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She'd just arrived in the March Theme Park and already run into a gang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But thinking back to that ominous silhouette she'd seen in the fog…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking about the difference between this park and the brutal July one…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And about the hidden achievement she'd just unlocked…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rita found herself feeling incredibly humbled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She even wanted to grab Mistblade's hands and say, Thank you for your service!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This fox was her lucky charm. A true savior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rita forced a sunny smile and, with B8017913's help, fumbled through her broken fox-tongue: \"What a coincidence! Out here having fun too?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mistblade's gaze swept across their bumper car. \"Looks like you've been doing well. Got yourself a ride, huh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rita: \"…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yeah, this was absolutely giving delinquent vibes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Rita didn't respond, Mistblade sneered. \"So how's reshuffling the teams treating you? Fun?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no good answer to that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, Rita didn't want to ignore her lucky fox.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I didn't really care about reshuffling,\" she said, \"It was more about… stopping people from blowing you up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mistblade blinked. \"Stopping what from blowing me up?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When it became clear she hadn't understood, Rita dropped it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wasn't about to admit that some gods were worried she might snap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no point arguing it out. Mistblade wasn't going to forgive her over an explanation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rita sighed. \"Not fun.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yeah right—not fun and yet you went and triggered it anonymously?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mistblade was about done with the conversation. Then she caught sight of that Block Rita had just acquired and frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You just unlocked a hidden achievement, didn't you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rita froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hesitated for only a moment, then put on her best confused-and-innocent face. \"No…? Those things aren't that easy to get, are they?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mistblade didn't believe a word of it, but she let it drop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mostly because she was afraid to hear the truth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stepped aside. \"Go on, enjoy yourself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two foxes withdrew their paws from the hood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rita didn't waste a second. She elbowed Nivalis hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nivalis didn't dare say a word. She hit the accelerator immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as they took off, they saw Mistblade's two foxes jogging after them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind them, Mistblade stood motionless, arms crossed, watching them disappear into the park.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was clearly planning to follow them—to figure out what attraction they picked and crash it for payback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nivalis \u002F Rita \u002F B8017913: \"…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rita: \"...Even Winter Sea · Frenzied Shark wasn't this clingy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then again, Winter Sea probably wanted to find her—but had a harder time tracking her down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every time she entered a new area, she'd run into Winter Sea. That wasn't coincidence. That was a man hunting her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She thought back to that black silhouette in the fog and chuckled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Winter Sea hadn't spotted her, maybe he was still standing there waiting like an idiot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nivalis, glancing backward: \"So… what now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rita: \"Pretend they don't exist. Come on, let's check out the Exchange first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She needed to see if the markets were connected across parks.\u003C\u002Fp>",1119,"2026-06-06T06:15:13.778Z",1,"novelbin.me","a59b7dabd91cdea991bf7aadca35f3f264623fae22f479069ccf9431b2adf21c","this-life-i-will-be-the-protagonist-chapter-642","this-life-i-will-be-the-protagonist-chapter-640",1404,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthis-life-i-will-be-the-protagonist-cover.jpg"]
