[Party] This bastard is really back I–

‘No, Fuck. Let’s calm down...’

After erasing the profanity in the chat window with backspace, I let out a warm breath.

It was too early to be certain that Cotton Candy Fox was Yoo Chae.

Above all, If I were to question him while pissed, there was no way to take it back if I found out that he wasn’t Cotton Candy Fox.

“Ha…………”

Now, everything fits like puzzle pieces. There’s no way they would take the Normal route on a party like this without any reason. It was all Cotton Candy Fox’s plan.

Unknowingly, I just joined the party and became a stupid bastard like no other in the world. Ah, shit. I’d rather join an official party recklessly and get kicked out than this.

‘Somehow, I had too much luck.’

I should have been more suspicious though. No, I mean who would have imagined that he would stick to me even while using a sub-account? Certainly not me. I came to this party and all I got was useless– Wait.

“…Huge amount of experience?”

My forehead was horribly distorted at the answer that popped out involuntarily. Do you think that experience is important to you when you are being teased by that Chae bastard?… There was nothing that could be said to be the truth of the matter.

‘The experience was sweet.’

It was so sweet that I thought my tongue would melt. It was even more so because it had been a rough week and I was craving for more. What is more important to a gamer other than experience in this type of RPG game?

“Fuck you bastard, damn it...”

If you’re going to deceive me by bringing a sub-account, then do it right. That way I can enjoy a happy game life without being guilty. At any rate, this bastard didn’t do anything right other than playing games!

After covering my face with both hands and muttering curses for a long time, I began to think seriously.

First, I should leave the party. Should I just close my eyes and get rid of it, pretending not to know? After all, that bastard is an idiot and I am the innocent victim, right? Even if I refused this time, there was no guarantee that that Yoo Chae bastard would give up.

I leaned against the back of the chair and looked at the ceiling. Actually, there was something else I was curious about.

Yoo Chae, what the hell does this guy want from me? Why is he helping me complete Raid dungeons by bringing a sub-account? I must have said it in a message last time. If I see your username in my eyes just one more time, I’ll block it right away.

Recalling that, I raised one corner of my mouth and smiled crookedly.

‘Well, looking at it, I didn’t see the username Yoo Chae.’

It’s Cotton Candy Fox, not Yoo Chae, so that’s a problem. Even with a beggar-like nickname of ‘Oppa’...

“Uh?”

At that moment, an amazing thought flashed through my mind like a lightning bolt. I touched my lips and tilted my head.

This is… If I do well, I might even get a raid dungeon and feed that Yoo Chae bastard a shot of his own crap, right?

I calmly considered various things and smiled deeply. I straightened my stretched body and immediately put my hand over the mouse.

[Party] Cotton Candy Fox: Is Monday okay? ㅜ.ㅜ

[Party] Cotton Candy Fox: Why are you taking so long to answer??

[Party] Cotton Candy Fox: ?

[Party] What Do You Soy Milk: It’s really not a big deal. ㄷㄷ

[Party] Let’s go Witcher: ??

[Party] Cotton Candy Fox: Sleepy-oppa??

[Party] Cotton Candy Fox: Knock Knock

[Party] Bumble Wing Wing: How are you?

[Party] What Do You Soy Milk: Did it go like that??

[Party] What Do You Soy Milk: You are not answering

[Party] Cotton Candy Fox: ㅜㅅㅜ...

[Party] Cotton Candy Fox: ㅜㅜ.....

[Party] Cotton Candy Fox: ㅜㅡㅜ

[Party] Suwon Special City: How long have we been here?;;

[Party] Let’s go Witcher: I think we’re gonna lose him in the first round

[Party] What Do You Soy Milk: oo I also wanna know when you’re going to come back

[Party] Cotton Candy Fox: ㄴwaiting

The last chat about waiting for me gave me chills. The character of Cotton Candy Fox, which used to look pretty cute, now felt like a sly nine-tailed fox that wanted to prey on my liver.

[Party] I’m sleepy: Sori Sori

[Party] I’m sleepy: an urgent phone call suddenly came up

[Party] Cotton Candy Fox: It’s okay!!

As I chatted, Cotton Candy Fox, who had been standing still, responded back and forth. I put up the soymilk that I received from What Do You Soy Milk earlier on the transaction window that is still on.

[Party] I’m sleepy: Thanks for this

[Party] I’m sleepy: soy milk

[Party] Cotton Candy Fox: haha~

[Party] Let’s go Witcher: What is it?

[Party] Let’s go Witcher: You threw trash at the benefactor who saved you;;

[Party] What Do You Soy Milk: It’s trash anyway

[Party] What Do You Soy Milk: I made it myself^^ haha

[Party] What Do You Soy Milk: It’s Sleepy-nim’s now haha

[Party] Cotton Candy Fox: ? ㅋㅋ

[Party] Cotton Candy Fox: Sleepy-oppa~

[Party] Cotton Candy Fox: soy milk, do you care about it? ㅜㅡㅜ

[Party] Cotton Candy Fox: How about a trade with this fox?

[Party] I’m sleepy: oo

[Party] What Do You Soy Milk: Ahh, that’s too sad

After trading the soy milk, I received a pair of shoes and a magic resistance bracelet and immediately wore the items.

[Party] What Do You Soy Milk: Sleepy-nim, you’ve suffered a lot of damage until now. ㅡ ㅡ

[Party] What Do You Soy Milk: How is the soy milk?

[Party] Suwon Special City: The fox took it just because

[Party] Suwon Special City: Drink well LOL

[Party] Cotton Candy Fox: ?

[Party] Cotton Candy Fox: Just now, I exchanged it

[Party] Bee buzzing: Fuck ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ ㅋㅋㅋ

[Party] Let’s Go Witcher: Ah, Fuck ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

[Party] Wat Do You Soy Milk: That’s funny af

I stared intently at the party chatting window. Seeing that they fit together so well, they must all be members of the Early Evening guild.

[Party] Cotton Candy Fox: So

[Party] Cotton Candy Fox: Oppa, are you going to keep playing with us??ㅇ_ㅇ

[Party] Cotton Candy Fox: Because you received my gifts!!^.^

[Party] Cotton Candy Fox: Can you add me as your friend~?

Cotton Candy Fox sent me a friend request before I even answered. There was a sense of urgency in that action.

<Cotton Candy Fox has sent you a Friend Request. Do you agree? [Confirm/Reject]>

I hit the Confirm button and hit chat.

[Party] I’m sleepy: Of course It was good for me haha

[Party] I’m sleepy: Thank you very much.

As soon as I accepted the offer, Cotton Candy Fox burst forth with a happy emoji. Seeing that, I laughed wickedly like a villain.

‘Yeah, I really like it.’

Because it will make you regret starting to do things like being a Netkama carelessly.

After three days of arduous work, I found a decent newbie in the user cafe for Zenoris while humming and connecting to [Drink some water] account.

[Guild] Drink some water: Hey Yoo Chae

No matter how much he told me to do whatever I wanted, the guild master was definitely Yoo Chae. So, after waiting for a long time as Drink some water, which I called for Yoo Chae to make a brief report, there was still no answer, so I started chatting.

[Guild] Drink some water: ??

[Guild] Drink some water: I’m online right now

[Guild] Drink some water: Not here?

[Guild] Mocha Bread: ㄴㄴ

[Guild] Mocha Bread: Gilma is in the arena right now

[Guild] Mocha Bread: The kids seems to have left the Guild chat to watch the arenaㅋㅋ

[Guild] Drink some water: Arena??

The arena was a battlefield where users gathered together to fight in a large area that could only be accessed by purchasing a separate coin.

It was also the only place where you could enjoy PVP without hassle since it’s a system that can attack or receive anyone from the moment you enter.

[Guild] Drink some water: Why suddenly the arena?

[Guild] Mocha Bread: I feel so happy

[Guild] The monster born of capital: oo He went there to relieve stress..

[Guild] Seasoned Crab Soup: The kids must be fucking dead by now

[Guild] Seasoned Crab Soup: Poor kids

[Guild] Haerun: Lord-nim

[Guild] Haerun: Another 100 people have passed away…

[Guild] Let’s do it: Hahahaha Fuck I should go too;;

[Guild] Drink some water: Is something wrong?

[Guild] Park Seung-jin 99: Ummm

[Guild] Park Seung-jin 99: It’s a bit long to explain.

[Guild] Drink some water: ??

[Guild] Drink some water: I’m fine, Please do it

[Guild] Park Seung-jin 99: Shit, so what actually happened is…

Park Seung-jin 99 began to slowly talk about everything he had seen through the Suwon Special City account.

The time was two days ago, that is, a day had passed since Sleepy-nim accepted Cotton Candy Fox’s proposal and formed a long-term raid party.

[Party] Cotton Candy Fox: Kya, sleepy oppa><~~!!

[Party] Cotton Candy Fox: Welcome~!!♥

[Party] I’m sleepy: haha

[Party] Suwon Special City: hahahaha~

[Party] Bumble Wing Wing: Hi

[Party] Let’s Go Witcher: Welcome

[Party] What Do You Soymilk: Let’s start quicklyㄱㄱ

The start of the raid was very ordinary, no different from the first day.

Yoo-Chae wore his Cotton Candy Fox mask like a natural and poured out her aegyo that was honestly burdensome to look at, and just like before, was unrepentant about it.

That was until the raid had ended without many problems.

[Party] I’m sleepy: Fox-nim

[Party] I’m sleepy: I think I’ll make myself more comfortable with you

[Party] I’m sleepy: You’re fine with it?

Cotton Candy Fox jumped over the chat since no one seemed to expect it. It was understandable to some extent. It’s probably because I’m sleepy-nim, who kept pushing him away?

Yoo Chae, who was one of the seniors who took in guild members and turned them into dope slaves, helped me to level up. It was only natural to turn around when the person he liked so much reciprocated.

[Party] Cotton Candy Fox: Sure! sure!!

[Party] Cotton Candy Fox: It’s totally fine ㅇㅅㅇ!!!

[Party] I’m sleepy: hahaha

[Party] Cotton Candy Fox: ㅠㅡㅠ

But the operation will start here. I’m sleepy-nim will have to look obsessed with her, so starting now, I will be adding the word “oppa” in every chat to refer to myself.

[Party] I’m sleepy: Oppa will do it for you^^

[Party] I’m sleepy: How was your oppa just now? Did I do well?

[Party] I’m sleepy: Oppa thinks you’re very pretty as a woman ha

[Party] I’m sleepy: Oppa now knows who the person behind fox is~

[Party] Cotton Candy Fox: ……
