Chapter 123: Hello, You're So Flirty

~9 min read 1,779 words

But after she finished her conclusion, the doctor remained silent and stared at her with a very strange look.

What does that mean?

Cloi swallowed, feeling her whole body trembling, and waves of the urge to urinate kept coming.

Just as she was about to lose control, the doctor suddenly broke into a smile.

"Oh, that's good."

Then, without hesitation, he turned and walked away quickly.

Until he vanished into the darkness, Cloi collapsed onto the stone platform as if her bones had been pulled out.

So terrifying, too terrifying!

I'm just a level‑3 human, why is it so scary?

Now her desire to slack off vanished, and she quickly stood up to continue patrolling, fleeing this place swiftly.

"Besides, my family is wealthy, we discovered it early, so it's fine."

After a short rest, Bai Yesheng spoke with puzzlement.

"You logged on and immediately tangled with me; is it because you don't want me to ask what you've been doing these past two days!"

Ji Ming still thought she was a post‑disaster survivor, wanting to say something melodramatic.

Ji Ming wanted to ask if she was deliberately disgusting him, but seeing her earnest, thoughtful expression, he joined in the contemplation.

It is caused by damage to the upper and lower motor neurons, leading to gradual weakness and atrophy of the muscles in the pelvic region, limbs, torso, chest, and abdomen.

Bai Yesheng inhaled and said lightly.

Ji Ming hurriedly chased after him.

Therefore, among many professions, only pharmacists have an innate charm‑boosting effect from the start.

As for the few eccentric lunatics…

Damn!

"You..."

"Silly kid, stop being embarrassing, you should take it easy."

"If you want to lay your cards down, just do it; why are you taking advantage of me!"

Could it be that my inherent 23 points of charm are showing off again?

"I was just kidding, you hurry up and speak."

Having said that, he instantly teleported back to the Clinic.

"Something's fishy; increase the monitoring intensity."

Ji Ming was about to rebut, but suddenly closed his mouth.

"Fine, I've told you everything I have to say; from now on don't bring this up again, and don't tell anyone else."

……

"Alright, I'm laying my cards down with you!"

Is this the effect after breaking past twenty, where you automatically have a good impression on anyone you meet?

"Look, I can even walk smoothly now... Ah!"

"Even though I'm not online, I silently transfer power to you every night; I'm so disappointed you haven't reached double level!"

Ji Ming stepped closer, fixing his gaze on her eyes.

"I'm busy with something, you're too lazy; how can you lead me like this?"

【Zai Zai Zai? I heard there's a big move tonight, I'm about to log on, are you there?】

So he smiled.

"Hey, so many days have passed, why have you only leveled up twice?"

Ji Ming pressed a button, and Bai Yesheng's voice rang out from nowhere.

But Bai Yesheng didn't even look at his expression, lowering his voice and continuing to ask.

Moreover, it can be accompanied by various other ailments or mental issues caused by weakened immunity or low mood, which are extremely painful.

After pondering, there was only one possibility.

"Don't rush."

Who knows which gutter the ghost died in; anyway, it didn't even leave a name.

A hint of relief showed on Bai Yesheng's face, and the faint sense of distance vanished.

Watching her drift away, Ji Ming waved and summoned a flying bird, then asked.

Gah!

Bai Yesheng flipped through the player list with an air of it being natural.

"What, I haven't even dozed off; I just fell asleep..."

Could my ominous premonition be warning me to beware the problems here?

But in his conception, the ancient battlefield in the north should become increasingly active.

"Specifically, what illness is it? Could you tell me in detail?"

As a pure melee profession, a warrior gains health and agility when leveling up.

Saying that, she stepped forward.

Ji Ming was so angry at her he almost threw his back over in one breath.

"No, I'm serious. By the way, has anyone told you that compared to a few days ago, you now carry an aura of lewdness?"

"I'm sick."

She placed both hands on her knees, pausing between each word.

Ji Ming had already thought of an excuse for this.

"By the way, I see almost everyone in the closed‑beta group already has a squad, what about you?"

Her face flushed red then turned green, trembling her lips for a long time without being able to say a word.

As for the mage class, it's relatively free; when leveling up, it adds Intelligence and an equal amount of free attribute points.

"......!"

Ji Ming hadn't even had time to speak when he saw her lower her hand.

Seeing that his commotion had already attracted other players, Bai Yesheng could only pull him to sit elsewhere.

Bai Yesheng froze for a moment and let out an indescribable, agonizing scream.

"At your low level‑2, one hit will turn you into a newborn; hurry up and level up a bit."

Aurora Dance?!

Without going to the armory, the two still chose the slime in the western part of Dog Village.

Seeing that there were still about four hours of free activity time, Ji Ming decided to take Bai Yesheng to grind more monsters.

Perhaps some players mess around in the game, but for Sunlight people this is a painful reality, so few would dump all their precious free attribute points into Charisma.

Being tangled up with Aurora Dance like this, Ji Ming didn't feel like probing her personal matters any further.

"I'm here, I'm here, hurry and log in!"

He was about to launch a harsh rant, but then thought, after all she's just a patient, and swallowed his words again.

"Hard to describe, it's like the women my father brought back; it probably has a seductive charm."

Since the players' war is still some time away, Ji Ming didn't waste this rare leisure; he spread out his blanket and went to sleep.

His face tangled for a moment, then he let out a sudden 'pfft' laugh.

Finally, with a sudden 'whoosh', he stood up, turned his head in a huff and walked away.

"I respect your mother!"

"I believe… I believe everything, okay!"

"I thought you'd be in the sissy squad, after all these days have passed and there are still zero sissies."

Bai Yesheng hesitated for a moment, then slapped his thigh.

Ji Ming opened his mouth, saw that all avenues were blocked, and could only nod.

After changing into proper player gear and attaching a level‑5 panel, Ji Ming saw an excited Aurora Dance in the Hall of Saints.

When he opened his eyes, he found it was actually a flying message.

But sitting side by side on the bench, there was still a hint of something left unsaid.

"Just ALS."

"You have to stack the money this~high to buy a plot here; why are you, in your poverty, worrying about me?"

"I…"

"Don't go!"

Ji Ming had no choice but to climb out of bed.

"I'm also asking you this very seriously!"

For these simple‑mechanic, low‑attack monsters, just having a hand is enough; under Ji Ming's lead, she quickly reached level 3.

However, the demonic Qi issue in Sunlight City was raging, while here it grew ever quieter…

"But you're only level 2, damn it!"

He had just closed his eyes when he felt a burst of multicolored light, as if something shone on his face.

By then it was already eight o'clock, and the spearman had announced the battle time on the public screen.

Ji Ming fell silent.

Aurora Dance stamped his foot.

"By the way, keep watching her; I'll come back later for an assessment."

"It's not really a serious illness…"

I guess I won't keep leveling up and actually turn into a tailless male succubus…

It wasn't until today that Ji Ming finally equated Bai Yesheng with Aurora Dance.

Because of the Ice Bucket Challenge, the disease was once 'trendy'; as an online surfing expert, he incidentally learned about it.

"..."

"Uh, no, I'm just seriously urging you to work hard…"

Ji Ming thought for a moment, then ordered.

Ah, this…

As a class that majors in the body and minors in magic, odd‑level upgrades add HP and Agility, while even‑level upgrades add Agility and Intelligence.

He probably feared she wouldn't believe him, so he emphasized again.

She gave him a resentful glance; Aurora Dance's expression softened, and she sighed.

"…you're the newborn!"

"Do you remember the address I sent you? I'm a wealthy lady's daughter from the capital!"

The bird spoke, carrying a fresh breeze.

"…sigh!"

Aurora Dance's complexion changed, and she stepped back.

"I haven't even thought you were weak, yet you call me lazy!"

I don't spend much time online, so I didn't do it; we'll see how it goes when the closed beta comes later.

Why do I feel like you're about to brew something unpleasant?

Good son, thank you for being filial to Mom.

Stunned.

Looks like it's still labor reformation; they turned a dangerous werewolf directly into an honest good person.

ALS may be terminal, but it doesn't kill you outright.

Um, Aurora, there's something else: the game actually has a recording function, so I accidentally…

Understood.

Yes, she didn't lie.

I've indeed had some health issues lately, but they're all over now; I'm recovering well and feel stronger and stronger!

If you don't want to hear it, fine!

What they call ALS is amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, also known as motor neuron disease.

Not simple!

What does "saucy aura" mean?

Thus, breaking all conventions, Ji Ming suddenly felt a bit anxious.

Keep a calm mind, understand?

Saying that, he also gestured.

Aurora Dance, however, remained self‑righteous.

So everything she said was true?

Quickly supporting the Aurora Dance who almost fell like a dog chewing mud, Ji Ming slipped a wooden stick into her hand.

Ji Ming jumped in fright and instinctively moved her hand away.

I am the capital city's rich lady heiress XN.

After forcing Ji Ming to delete all recordings, she then smoothed her slightly disheveled sideburns.

But then she pressed his shoulder, her face full of affection, and said.

Having barely met, she glanced at herself and actually asked.

The cruelest part of this disease is that patients whose intellect and emotions remain normal must watch clearly as they gradually lose motor ability, inching toward death, as if being slowly frozen.

Ji Ming forced himself not to say "I know" and put on a businesslike smile.
