Chapter 130: Bachelor Night

"The thought that my sister might get innocently drawn into harem after her coma makes me livid," Masayuki said with his nose nearly brushing Feng's.

They were so close, so his words boomed within Feng's mind.

Zerze continued, "I won't act as if these thoughts are pointless." He titled his head, "With those guild masters and other people getting into harem through the game, it was just a matter of time before it would come into fruition. Still, if I have a chance to beat the fuck out of the man behind it, I won't stay idle."

"All you have to do is slowly teach your sister about the new world," Feng smiled widely, not deterred by Zerze's cold voice! "I have a lot of siblings, so my fighting skills should be up to par with yours; if not even higher." He sneered and taunted.

Masayuki chilled and scoffed, "What have you prepared for Bachelor Night? This is where I am going to beat you."

Problems in real life would halt his progress in the game world, so Zerze was ready for whatever Feng had planned for his bachelor night.

The golden-haired man beckoned others to come closer, "Of course, we have to be all warmed up for the night. Therefore, the first activity is football."

"Football?" Michu asked, his eyes already starry!

He had never played football with others, so his eyes lit up and he looked excited while others complained. Other than Zerze, Feng's friends found football boring! However, some exercise outside the game would do good for their bodies!

Thus, their lips didn't part to voice out their inward feelings.

Feng could see it, nonetheless. He smiled and added, "Most of us aim for the big family! On my path, I stumbled upon a lucky encounter and got a goldmine! I am sure that we are all blessed with an abundant future, but unlike me, you guys still have to work for it! For today's games, I have prepared a scoreboard with rewards."

Those were the words coming from the rich man!

Everyone got excited with something on the line including Zerze.

-

"Yuki, have you ever played football?" Michu asked.

"A little when I was kid," Masayuki replied.

He no longer raised his hand to punish Michu for using this nickname. Were he doing it until now, Zerze's hand would've been strained already!

Masayuki also couldn't bring himself to force Michu to change it!

If he wanted, he would have spoken to him about it and used a lot of arguments to change Lil Monke's mind.

As Michu valued this friendship, he probably would've changed it!

"The teams aren't decided, though," Feng chimed in and wrapped his arm around Michu's shoulder, "We need to decide team leaders. Since you want to beat me so much, I guess you are the team leader, Yuki." He giggled at the end.

"Continue to use that nickname and your fiance won't be able to kiss you at your wedding," Zerze threatened, "If you add Michu to my team, then I will let it slide for the remainder of this event."

"Sure! Haha!" Feng accepted the deal, "We all want to bully Yuki! You don't usually get a chance to bully that infamous cold killer. Right, boys?"

"That's so true! Well, we still need a third teammate for them." Feng's friends were quite social and they ended up playing rock-paper-scissors to enter Michu's team.

With the third member chosen, Michu and his two friends went to speak about the tactic!

It was a three versus three match!

"Kyota, do you know how to play football?" Michu asked.

"I was never fond of it. In the past, I used to get forcefully pulled to play some games, so I know some stuff," Kyota was a twenty-one years old man who was kinda short.

One would put him on the offensive or defense, but not as a goalkeeper!

Zerze had different thoughts, "You are on the goal." He was the team leader, so his voice had some authority!

Kyota scratched his hair, then agreed, "Alright." After some thoughts, he didn't want to risk arguing with Zerze.

Zerze's eyes shifted to Michu, "You should get the hang of the ball after playing for a while. I will continue to pass the ball to you for the first ten minutes, then we will both focus on the offensive."

With Zerze's plan laid out, Michu nodded brightly and promised, "I will do my best!" He took off the top part of his suit, then slowly folded it. Unlike others who just threw the bothersome clothes onto the bench, Michu diligently took care of it!

He patted his cloth, then stood up, "Okay! Let's play!"

The game began then!

On the offensive, Feng and Lagren smiled and challenged their opponents.

The third friend was the goalkeeper... And as the game began, he bent his legs and carefully looked at the ball!

However, Zerze snatched the ball so fast that the enemy goalkeeper blinked a few times.

The ball flew toward Michu even faster, but Lil Monke somehow reacted and took it on his chest!

"Hah?" The goalkeeper widened his eyes, then did his best to lock the ball in his view.

But once Michu kicked the ball, the whole world seemed to forget about it! It just flew so fast that it felt like the ball disappeared!

Luckily for the goalkeeper, Michu's aim was off and he missed the goal!

"Ahhh! I missed it! Sorry!" Michu apologized.

"Don't mind it." Masayuki waved his hand and returned to the initial position.

"Lucky, lucky!" Feng cheered and started the game anew!

He kicked the ball and reached the middle in the blink of an eye! His physical abilities were likewise top-notch!

In the center, his lips widened as Zerze arrived to face him!

"Yuki, Yuki, what can you do?" Feng taunted, then maneuvered the ball like a pro football player.

It seemed like he had an abundant share of experience even in this field! Using all he learned from his siblings, Feng passed through Zerze and closed up distance with Michu's goal!

However, Zerze's reactions were something else too!

Honed by the game and his battles, Zerze turned heels and chased after Feng! His eyes shone blue and he slid down on the field! His foot not only kicked away the ball from Feng but also toppled down the golden-haired man!

On his ass, Feng complained, "What the fuck was that?" That was strictly against the rules!

Masayuki patted his clothes and shifted his eyes to Feng, "I didn't expect you to fall... Well, if you are weak, then we can ask the referee about this move."

And where was the referee?

"Surely, no player can be a referee?" Masayuki added, his lips curled into a sneer.

"You little fucker," Feng replied.

A much more brutal football game unfolded then.

-

[Football Match Results!]

[3:2 for Team Yuki!]

[Kart Race Results!]

[Michu was the first!]

[Axe Throwing Results!]

[Masayuki and Feng were top1 with the same points!]

"If we sum up points... Michu is the top one! He scored the most goals in a football match and somehow won a kart race," Feng commented while doing math!

"Didn't he only win because of you two bumping into each other like idiots?" The rest of Feng's friends added with vacant eyes!

But all of them ended up bursting out with laughter and congratulated Michu! "Congrats, Michu! You will probably get a lot of red crystals from our rich man! Haha!"

"Thanks!" Michu was slightly overwhelmed.

It was a private room in the restaurant.

His heart wasn't stirred by the environment, however. Michu had just spent a day with a lot of people and it was genuinely enjoyable! No one had asked about his family or work, but just spent time with him!

Although Feng and the rest joked and curiously asked about Michu's girlfriend and even other 'possible' women, they were nice and never mentioned bad rumors about Venomous!

He sat overwhelmed by the emotions welling up his heart...

Warm tears tumbled down on his face, then...

"Michu! Are you that happy you began crying?" Feng laughed, but his smile was likewise warm!

Michu bit his lips and explained, "It's not about the reward... In my whole life, everyone looked down on me... They didn't want to spend time with me and other people always told their children to stay away from me... I wasn't alone, because of mom and Nana, but... I didn't do anything bad and I missed so much fun stuff... and valuable lessons too... It might be too late, but I am really happy I got to taste a little of it... Thanks, guys!"

Michu wiped off his tears, but those continued to tumble down on his red cheeks.

"Aren't we all kids deep inside, anyway?" Feng laughed, "It's not late for you at all, Michu. We are in the best era possible! A game that we all dreamt of during childhood became reality and we can damn play it. And since we're all adults, we can literally do whatever we want!" Feng raised his hand and hyped the crowd!

"Exactly! The game and its laws also have affected real life already! Don't we have the Harem Ambassador in person here?" Kyota slapped the table and laughed too! 

He carried on, "We can be like kids! Dream of women and powerful items all for ourselves, throw our zealous bodies mindlessly into fantasy quests, and complain if all of those slip away from our hands! Or we can be like adults and think of each step with business and other stuff in mind!"

"This is damn right! I remember my first epic sword!" Lagren shouted, "I could sell it and get proper equipment from top to bottom, but that sword was just too cool! It looked majestic... Nah, it looked fucking great! Haha! I couldn't sell it at all and lost it later on due to lack of proper equipment! Fuck! I could've made proper investments in-game and invested in stocks too!" He ended up crying like a brat.

"Thanks, guys!" Michu giggled!

Everyone reached for a beer and indulged in laughter, tears, and alcohol!

Zerze replied, "We all faced and will face more problems."

"Don't kill the mood, idiot," Feng threw an empty beer can at him and tapped something on his phone.

[Feng: I actually changed my mind. You pretty ladies just return home and enjoy free money.]

[Miss Stripper: As you wish, dear client! We have already booked your transfer!]

On this night, Feng planned to have a nice ladies dance and show off for his brothers! He changed up his mind at the last minute and shooed those ladies away!

At that time, Zerze's speech ended.

"We tend to forget a lot of things... We also miss a lot of things... Family, friends, lovers... I guess we all need at least one of them..." Zerze bitterly smiled and gobbled up the beer in one go! "I surely will help bring her back... After I do, I want you to become friends with her."

Before Michu replied, Feng pushed his nose into the conversation, "Haven't you heard my nickname, Yuki? I am the Harem Ambassador! I am the best person to explain Harem Law to your sister!" His eyebrows went up and down rapidly.

"You will never come close to her," Masayuki replied, his glare freezing those annoying golden eyebrows.

"Siscon! Haha!" Feng and the rest laughed!

Michu finally had enough room to speak, "I will take care of her! Hehe!"

His choice of words brought down memories from today, "Not only that old hag, but also my sis?" In a drunken state, Zerze stood up and added, "You can only take care of my sister if you are stronger than me!"

Still, with his arm around Michu, Feng answered back, "He already beat your ass, yo." Zerze's glare turned out to be more serious than never, "Hold him, brothers!"

Bachelor Night was as lively as one would've expected!
