"Wh … Why?"
Mu Wanqiu heard this voice in her heart, and her cheeks were slightly hot.
"I … I don't know. I just asked casually. I don't mean anything else. Don't take it to heart, haha."
"Wanqiu, if I promise not to have too much to do with the NPC girls in the game and focus on real life. As a friend, will you be happy with my promise? "
Li Dong suddenly threw out a question in a calm tone, or rather, a ball.
"Uh …"
Silence.
More than ten seconds of silence.
Just as Li Dong was about to type, "Sorry, I asked a strange question. Don't worry about it," and then laugh and pass the topic.
"I think a game is just a game, after all. It's a bit strange to find a partner in the game, get married, and spend most of your time in the game, isn't it? What do you think, Guild Leader? "Mu Wanqiu said, adding a laughing emoji at the end.
"… Well, it's a bit strange."
Li Dong nodded and typed a line of words: "A game is just a game. It can't replace real life."
In theory, the wife in the game Galaxy Era was more than 99% realistic, and there was a certain probability of being "extracted" into reality, completely solving the problem of the current excessive number of single men. Legally and ethically, as long as the number of people who called out was large enough, it was not impossible to pass … In terms of partners, all players had the hope of finding the ideal partner in their hearts.
Therefore, for most players, the game was no longer just a game, but an existence that could really replace reality.
But …
Li Dong still gave Mu Wanqiu a slightly reassured answer.
"Okay, Guild Leader, we agree on this point. Thank you for your understanding."
"You're welcome."
The conversation ended here.
…
Eastern Jupiter.
He logged into the game and returned to the familiar classroom.
Li Dong looked around at the surroundings, at the students in the classroom, and then turned his head to look at the blue sky and white clouds outside the window.
For a moment, he fell into melancholy and worry.
Reality. Virtual reality.
An ordinary life at the bottom of society. A life close to the pinnacle of reality in the game.
Two different life experiences produced basically the same reaction in the brain's nerves.
What's more, the "wife" in the game was theoretically possible to be "extracted" into reality.
Therefore, most ordinary people generally chose the latter.
Even Li Dong, who was considered an ordinary person, had his heart waver. He considered getting a perfect relationship in the game.
"Reality is always so cruel. The so-called present is only a small group of people, but it's still easy for them to experience parting, hurt, and helplessness due to various reasons and conflicts … It's too difficult to obtain perfect happiness in reality."
"In this place, only in this place, no matter how great the difficulty, it has become a trivial matter."
"The difficulty of obtaining happiness here is only one percent or even one ten-thousandth of the difficulty in reality. It's as if you can obtain happiness by raising your hand. You don't even have to bend down to pick it up."
"Brother Qinghai, Brother Yichen, and Xu Kai in the dormitory all seem to have 'wives' in the game. Recently, they seem to have become completely different people. They are more cheerful, lively, and confident. They no longer have the image of a useless nerd. It's quite surprising."
And … a little yearning and envy.
Not bad.
Li Dong, who had never been in a relationship before, was indeed very envious.
His heart was a little restless.
Look at the current situation.
There was no need to say much about the delicate and lovely Denen Satoshi. Her heart was completely attached to him. She was the kind of relationship where if she had a good impression of him, she would definitely nod if he made a request to have sex.
Nishihara Kaori was very familiar with him among the girls in the class. She was quite scheming. If he was the kind of man with a central air-conditioning personality, Nishihara would have launched a fierce offensive early on, and it was entirely possible that something would have happened.
As for Tanaka Mei and Shangguan Feifei, both of them were quite realistic and materialistic. At first, they did not pay too much attention to him. However, when the game, The Brave Road of A Hero In A Different World, had more than 10 million downloads and his personal income had exceeded 50 million, their attitudes finally changed significantly. They were also extremely enthusiastic about him.
This caused cracks to inevitably appear in the "deep sisterly love" relationship between the four girls, who originally belonged to the same circle. Small conflicts and fights often broke out. The so-called deep sisterly love ended up hurting, alienating, and indifferent to each other.
Naturally, Li Dong was the source of all evil.
This was, of course, exactly what he wanted. This was the treatment of a harem man.
But … when you really experienced and experienced a so-called relationship, you would feel that it was not as happy and satisfying as you imagined.
Instead, you often felt a headache and irritation.
Even the average of five love letters stuffed into your shoebox every day was enough to give you a headache.
Falling in love with others was a kind of pain. Bearing too much love was also a kind of torment … The premise was that if you were not a so-called scumbag in nature, you probably would not have the fantasy of "I can handle many women."
Li Dong was actually a proponent of "monogamy." He believed that this was the most basic premise of love. Adding one more would immediately destroy this sanctity, and it would be no different from the animal world.
More importantly, although the game world was good, it could not be used as a meal. One day, he would leave the game and return to reality, only to find that he had nothing but dream-like memories. That was really a bit sad.
Besides, in the real world, Li Dong also wanted to be a "winner" and have real happiness.
Therefore, it was time to put an end to some things.
…
After making up his mind.
According to the estimated favorability ranking, as well as the depth of mutual bonds.
After school, Li Dong pulled Denen Satoshi to the back of the school building alone. The two of them faced each other and had a private chat.
Looking at the petite girl in front of him, who was lowering her head shyly but had a very strong heart, Li Dong felt pity and emotion.
So he did not beat around the bush and asked directly,
"Satoshi, you like me, right?"
"Ah …"
His words shocked Denen Satoshi. Her cheeks flushed, but she noticed Li Dong's serious eyes. She nodded and said, "Well, Ryu, how did you know?"
"A few days ago, you were bullied by a few girls and threatened to stay away from me, but you didn't say a word and resisted with silence … That's when I knew."
Of course, those girls were driven away by Li Dong, and she was freed.
Denen Satoshi lowered her head and asked, "Can, can I like you, Ryu?" Her words were filled with determination.
"Of course. Being liked is a very good thing. I'm very happy," Li Dong said with a smile.
"Then … then we …"
Denen Satoshi lowered her head even more. Her face was bright red, and she rubbed her hands anxiously. "Can … can be …" She could not say the last word, even if she mustered all her courage.
After all, the gap between the two of them was too big.
"Satoshi, I know your feelings, but …"
Li Dong said, "We're not very suitable to develop into a couple. I'm very sorry."
"Ah …"
Denen Satoshi's face turned pale. Her body seemed to be drained of strength, and tears fell uncontrollably. Even her consciousness became a little transparent and blurry.
"But … we can be partners, partners who will be together forever," Li Dong suddenly said.
Ah?
Denen Satoshi was taken aback. Most of the sadness in her heart dissipated. She was confused. Partners? Together forever?
Was this substantially different from being a couple?
"Satoshi, I suddenly remembered something recently. Actually, I … seem to be the god of this world."
