Chapter 2 Chapter 2 The player decided to trick the NPC. …
Not only are players' fists harder, but their heads are even harder!
The overly long CGs force players to control their skills, but players don’t just sit there and wait.
While playing hide-and-seek with Skip, the player randomly glanced at the 'inspiring' club declaration.
Sweeping past the young freshmen, sweeping past the mature seniors, sweeping past the students who all shouted "Changsheng Lihai! Go Go Let's Go", the player finally found Skip hiding in the corner, and immediately skip, skip, skip, skip everything!
The player didn't take a second look until the slightly glowing option stopped in front of him.
[——I want to become the world's number one tennis player! ]
Hey, tennis player, isn’t he a farmer?
This should be the new way to play!
Players accepted it well and clicked on the speedrun CG quickly.
"...Although you have joined the Rikkai University Tennis Club, this doesn't mean you can slack off. Those who come here with the intention of relying on past performance should be prepared for harsh treatment!"
"If there are no objections, the first-year students will solve it on the spot—"
There was a sudden commotion below, and they hesitated to speak.
"Hey, hey, look, that guy is..."
"He climbed right up... uh... my eyes..."
Under the intimidation of the deputy minister, the first-year students, who had been as quiet as chickens, lowered their voices and shouted softly.
Everyone couldn't help but look at the figure who strode out from the vacuum zone of the crowd, and rolled onto the podium with his hands and feet and a ground roll. His movements were crisp and smooth, without any drag!
Of course, besides the first-years, there were also some confused people who started to make a fuss: "That brat! He actually dared to confront a third-year senior. He's too strong!"
Yanagi Renji and Sanada Genichirō, who were closest to the front, were the first to discover it.
Marui Bunta and Jack Kuwahara, who were one step behind them, saw the face rolling up a beat later, especially Marui Bunta's expression suddenly became very interesting.
He didn't know what he was thinking about, his face turned pale and cold sweat broke out, and he looked like he wanted to rush forward and stop the person who was about to make a move.
——Oh my God, the podium is only this big. If that guy does a series of non-stop spinning and jumping here, no one will be able to dodge him!
No one can understand Marui's worries.
On the side, Niou Masaharu and Yagyu Hiroshi, who were also third-year regulars, did not miss the face-changing segment of these two people.
Yagyu Hiroshi didn't say anything, but just pushed his glasses as if it had nothing to do with him. Nioh, on the other hand, took a closer look out of curiosity.
In just one glance, he saw the freshman brush off the dust on his body with both hands and then stand in front of that guy Sanada with a stern look, looking up, staring at him with his lifeless and dark eyes without blinking.
Silence, silence spread in the air.
Sanada frowned, "First-year, you..."
The player clenched his fists and raised his hands high: "I want to be the world's number one tennis player!"
Genichiro Sanada: "..."
If you just look at the actions and words, you can understand it as disruptive and provocative.
But what was strange was that the player said this with no expression on his face.
Sanada's expression was somewhere between anger and confusion, but he held it in. "If you don't have anything else to say, I'll go down now and prepare to disband."
Marui Bunta and Jack Kuwahara in the back row silently covered their faces and shrank back. They didn't know why, even though it was the boy who said this, they were the ones who felt embarrassed.
Yanagi Renji narrowed his eyes and stepped forward to rescue him, but the black-haired first-year student, whose back was facing him, twitched his ear, as if sensing his approach, and turned his head to stare at him.
Being stared at by those dark, opaque eyes, a bad premonition quietly spread in Liu's heart.
The next second,
Yagi Kei A, with Yanagi as the center, raised his hands and clenched his fists and ran in a circle, "Did you hear me? I want to be the world's number one tennis player!"
Yanagi Renji: "..."
Marui and Kuwabara wanted to turn their backs and not see anything.
Liu tried to take out the notebook from his pocket, but when he thought about the new student in front of him who had just appeared today, there was no data record at all.
He remained silent and withdrew his hand as if nothing had happened.
"...Puff puff," Yagyu Hiroshi pushed his glasses again and could already feel Niou's body shaking with laughter beside him.
"That boy is so interesting," Ren Wang said, not forgetting to give him a good impression. "He actually dared to say such words directly to the 'Emperor' and the 'Advisor'. How brave~!"
The player was so anxious that he clicked the option twice and finally got rid of the stiff state and regained control of his body.
[Nioh Masaharu favorability +5]
Players who were enjoying their hard-earned freedom looked up and found that there were suddenly more NPC favorability prompts, and many new NPCs refreshed in front of them!
Yay! I haven't seen the face before, the greeting mission continues!
Seeing that the person finally stopped running in circles around him, Yanagi Renji found his voice again, "It's good to have ambitions, but now..."
The player clicked on the taskbar to check and said, "Hmm."
Yanagi Renji: “…………”
Player A takes the opportunity to come forward: "Hello."
I don’t know if it was an illusion this time, but the notification of increased favorability took a while to pop up.
[Yanagi Renji Favorability +5]
(19/52)
At this moment, Yanagi Renji finally sensed Sanada's mood and slowly responded.
The player flipped through the NPC file: +5+5+5+5+10...
Oh hoo!
As expected, no NPC can withstand the friendly offensive of the players!
Yanagi Renji wanted to say something, but the first-year student had already turned his head away.
Marui Bunta and Jack Kuwahara walked forward silently, especially Marui Bunta, who patted his shoulder with a deep expression, as if saying 'I understand you, everything is self-explanatory'.
willow:"……"
The player is unaware of the undercurrents surging behind him, and his mind is focused on the present.
After all - the player has already noticed the black-faced NPC next to him!
Because there are always bright hints on him!
[Pick up] is about to rush to the player’s face, if you don’t pick it up, you are not a human being!
But you still have to go through the task before picking it up.
The player raised his dead eyes, and Sanada looked at him silently as well.
The players understood.
As expected, since the last sentence ended with the NPC, it is now the players who should initiate it!
Hmm, it seems that the NPC program is very advanced and will actually wait for the player to answer. Click it and try it!
Player A goes up: "Hello."
Genichiro Sanada: "..."
Genichiro Sanada: "…………"
Player:?
The player pokes him.
No response?
Then the player pokes again.
Yanagi, Marui, and the others watched as the first-year student seemed obsessed with getting a response, spinning around Sanada in a 360-degree spinning top, so fast that it even left an afterimage in the place where it was.
By the way, he kept reaching out to poke people, and in a trance, Sanada almost became a fixed human stake.
Everyone: This, this… O mouth O teeth are so white!!
Having experienced the baptism of the player's previous strange operation, Marui miraculously understood what he was going to do and immediately extended a helping hand and shouted,
"Just talk! Sanada! Just talk!!"
Others looked sideways, and the subtle gazes made Marui almost cry for a moment.
——If possible... he doesn't want to understand at all!
After a heart-to-heart decision, before he was actually stabbed into a human stake, Genichirō Sanada finally gave a concise response: "...Yeah."
[Sanada Genichirō Favorability +5]
(20/52)
Big win for the players!
The greeting mission is suspended, and now there is something more attractive to players——
[Pick up]-click!
[Obtained a hat given by grandfather × 1]
Yagi Kei did a double jump on the spot with his left foot stepping on his right foot, and under the confused - unbelievable - life-doubting gazes of everyone, he directly lifted the hat on Sanada's head and held it tightly in his hand.
He grabbed Sanada's hat with both hands and raised it high above his head as if he had won a trophy. He COSed the goddess of victory holding up a torch, and the lifeless dead fish eyes on his face suddenly burst into bright light!
Everyone who witnessed this scene: "..."
The only victim, Sanada, whose hat was taken off: "…"
"Hold on—hold on, Vice Minister Sanada!! This kid is just young and ignorant, you must hold on!!"
"Hurry, hurry, hurry, someone come! Pull them, pull them!"
There was a commotion and a roar of anger.
“…¥%#¥%)&——Too lax!!”
The player, who was only thinking about the new item he had just picked up, scratched his ears and did not put it into his backpack. Instead, he directly clicked on the introduction and looked at it expectantly:
[The hat given by grandfather: The expectation placed on grandfather should be something that someone cherishes.
Luck +25, Health +20]
The player's eyes suddenly lit up!
Golden Legend! The players are so lucky!
【Remarks: (Already bound) (Unusable)】
Player: “…”
What the hell?! What the hell are you saying to a little cat like the player?!
Marui Bunta, who was holding onto Sanada tightly, fearing that he would lose control and beat up the poor first-year student, wiped the shouting from his face and, relying on his pitiful 15 points of initial favorability, turned around in time to look—
There was a loud "bang".
Everyone, who were in a panic, turned around at the sound. After seeing the situation, their expressions became even more dismal.
"No, what happened to that first-year?!?"
"Hey! Forget about Vice Minister Sanada for now!! Come and help him up!"
"—Hey, hey, cheer up! First grader! Don't faint and try to scam me!"
"Soul—this kid's soul is floating away! Help!!"
“…”
After a lot of chaos, the player was surrounded by NPCs in the center, as if to punish the neighboring village for repeatedly coming to steal chickens and make trouble.
Players don't care about them.
Players just feel suffocated.
The top-quality equipment that players finally got turned out to be bound equipment. Players couldn't even get a sip of soup, let alone eat meat.
The player laughed out of anger, and when he opened his backpack, he stopped and started harassing the online customer service again.
Rikkai University Tennis Club, temporary meeting room,
The others were dismissed and only a few regulars were left. Everyone discussed what to do with this freshman who had performed so many miraculous operations on his first day in the club.
Sanada and Yanagi had already learned everything that had happened before from Marui (the master) and Kuwabara, who had witnessed the new abstract operation.
At this moment they are looking for new recruits to see where this guy comes from.
A sophomore who has become one of the regulars, Kirihara Akaya had noticed this new student at the induction ceremony just now.
After all, shouting "I want to be the world's number one tennis player" in front of everyone is exactly the same as when he just joined the club last year!
However, this guy seems to be even more arrogant than him. He even dared to expose the hat of Vice Minister Sanada...
Kirihara Akaya rubbed his chin, his gaze unable to stop drifting to Sanada's head on the other side.
In short, the freshman who took the hat seemed to return it to Sanada for safety reasons and surrendered.
But Kirihara, who has the same rebellious bloodline, has already keenly sensed it——
This guy is definitely still plotting something in secret! He definitely doesn't look as calm as he is now!
Kirihara took advantage of everyone's inattention and slowly moved to the side of the first-year student who was staring at the ground in a daze.
Looking left and right, no one noticed, perfect!
Kirihara leaned over to see the first-year student's expression, and when he raised his eyes, he was met with a pair of lifeless, lifeless eyes, and - a sinister twist at the corner of the lips.
—He’s laughing! He’s actually laughing like a villain boss!
So scary!!
With a "bang", everyone looked over and saw that their unreliable junior fell flat on his butt in front of another even more unreliable junior.
Everyone: “…”
Everything went dark, and I couldn’t see the future of Rikkai University.
The player ended the dispute with customer service and received a guarantee that "only player-usable equipment will appear in the future", and received a random item gift package as spiritual compensation for the player.
——It is said that the highest level of equipment that can be obtained is mythical equipment!
The player was in a good mood. When he finished packing his backpack after returning with glory, he opened his eyes and found a dazed-looking Kelp Head sitting in front of him.
Kelphead pointed at him and trembled, "He, he was actually laughing eerily just now! How weird! This guy is so weird!"
The player stared at Kelp Head.
Wow! Another new NPC!
Mission, mission, players’ missions are delivered to your door!
Marui Bunta: "Okay, okay, Akaya, be more tolerant of the younger generation. Don't point your fingers at people. It's rude!"
Jack Sanghara looked left and right.
Niou Masaharu was extremely curious about this new student from the beginning, and he approached her as soon as he got the chance.
"I said, your name is—"
Here comes another one!
The player decided to do the quest first.
The player turned around and said, "Hello."
Although it didn't go as Niou expected, he still responded: "Oh hello, that's really your first sentence? Let me guess what you'll say next..."
[Niou Masaharu Favorability +5]
(21/52)
The mission is almost halfway through!
The players' hearts are filled with joy and motivation again.
Niou Masaharu started the conversation by throwing out some ideas, waiting for the first-year student to speak.
He waited.
He waited for a while.
The first grader stared at him and turned his head sharply, and everyone's eyes followed him.
The player will lose it after brushing the good impression.
The player said to Kelp Head: "Hello."
Niou Masaharu: “……?”
Others: “…” Why does it seem like they are not surprised at all?
Kirihara Akaya, who was in the center of his sight, was confused: "Me, me?"
He didn't expect that even though he had just said bad things about someone, the other person would actually greet him politely.
Wow, he is so polite. He must have misunderstood the other person!
Kirihara Akaya sniffed, temporarily forgetting the pain in his butt, and felt extremely moved.
[Kirihara Akaya Favorability +10]
(22/52)
Player:!
The player's eyes became sharp.
The normal favorability is 5, but Kelp Head gave 10 favorability at once.
A big favorability player, players quickly marked him as a 'favorability booster'.
For some reason, Kirihara shuddered, and a chill spread to the back of his head.
“—This is outrageous!!”
Sanada's scolding made Kirihara immediately get up from the ground.
The player looked around for a quest object, but the left and right sides of the scene were occupied by two large figures.
The player is puzzled, the player looks up from the sitting position of a primary school student,
Sanada: "Now explain to me why there's such a large area above the Nibukai!"
Liu: "When you apply for admission, you can't just fill in your name and age and submit it. You'll be considered maliciously disruptive."
Hearing them say this, Marui and Kirihara came over to take a look.
As expected - there was only name and age, no information about birthplace, identity, or past experience.
Sanada crossed his arms and pulled his hat down. Then he thought about what the first-year student in front of him had just done, and his face darkened.
"Now you have one chance to explain. Tell me honestly why you deliberately didn't write it!"
Marui Bunta, who had a 15-point favorability, and Kirihara Akaya, who had a 10-point favorability, both looked at it together—
Players recall, players think, and players come up with answers.
Yagi Kei: “Oh, I’m an orphan.”
Sanada: "..."
willow:"……"
Others: “…”
——I told you not to mess with this guy!!!
The author has something to say:
