Chapter 90: Big Bad Wolf and Little Red Hood (1/2)

Seeing Yue Kai's trio acting that way, the corner of Xie Feng's mouth contracted several times.

Although his appearance had become much more perfect than before, the facial features that only belonged to him, and set him apart from the rest, were still there. Therefore, as long as a person looked at him with a little attention, they would certainly notice who he was.

So, he knew that these three guys were playing with him.

While his left eye trembled and contained the urge to hit them, Xie Feng replied, ”You three... my morning was not very pleasant... and since yesterday, many strange things happened to me, so... if you don't want a beating,” Xie Feng paused for a moment and then continued talking in a calm but louder tone of voice than before, ”You better stop bothering me!”.

”””Kek!”””

As if they had trained it beforehand, the three reacted in the same way and they quickly surrounded Xie Feng.

”Big brother Xie, what the hell happened to you? Did you get a beauty treatment or something? How is it possible that from one day to the next, you went from an ugly duckling to a charming prince,” Yue Kai bombarded with questions.

Xie Feng rolled his eyes, ”Well, I'm sorry for being an ugly duckling, but at least no one ever confused me with being a woman... To be honest, it's hard to explain, just accept reality. It'll be easier for me that way since I'm not even sure what the hell is going on here”.

The three looked at each other and after a moment of hesitation, they stopped asking questions about Xie Feng's appearance.

He gave them a grateful look for understanding, as he really wasn't 100% sure what was wrong here.

Suddenly, Xie Feng remembered something and looked at Hu Chen: ”Hu Chen, just a moment ago you said that a player beat the despair mode in Samsara Online. Is this news legitimate?”.

Hu Chen nodded and gestured to Xie Feng with his hand to tell him to wait a moment. Then he started looking for something on his mobile phone. He said, ”Look, read this”.

After some searching, Hu Chen finally found what he was looking for and gave his mobile phone to Xie Feng.

At a glance, Xie Feng realized that this was the official forum of Samsara Online, so the news published here cannot be negated. At least, not the ones published by the staff members.

There, there was a piece of very recent news, in fact, it only happened a few minutes ago but the news had already become world news:

”Today, February 7th, 2030, two weeks after the official launch of the 100% immersive virtual reality video game, Samsara Online, the second player to successfully beat the Beginner's Village trial was born and, just like the first, this second challenger did it alone”.

Xie Feng looked at Hu Chen and asked, ”What is this player's name?”.

Hu Chen simply waved his hand, ”Just slide down a little further, that person's nickname is there”.

Xie Feng did what he said and, indeed, the player's name was there, but... When he saw the player's name, a strange look crossed his face, and he unconsciously looked at Hu Chen.

Apparently understanding his thoughts, Hu Chen gave him a strange look, ”*Cough*... Well, suppose this player is a woman... otherwise, 'F' for you big bro...Pffft- Hahahaha!”. Hu Chen finally could not contain his laughter any longer and burst out laughing.

Not only Hu Chen. Xiao Luo and Yue Kai also began to laugh.

Because except for people close to him, no one else knows his identity in the virtual world, the rest of the class looked at them as if they had gone crazy.

With a tired look, Xie Feng looked at the clouds through the window and whispered, ”Can there really be such a coincidence... or is destiny teasing me?”.

He turned his gaze to the cell phone screen and, there, was only one word written;

Kali.

Kali is a Goddess of the Hindu religion, like Shiva. What is more, Kali is one of the consorts of Shiva, the God of Destruction. Therefore, Xie Feng could only pray silently that this person be a woman and not a man with strange tastes.

Although Xie Feng is not homophobic, that is as long as it does not involve him... Therefore, with a dead expression on his face, he prayed: ”To all the beloved gods, please... Please let this person be a woman!”.

He did not give too much importance to this news. It would be a lie to say that he was not surprised, after all, he experienced the strength of the Guardian of Hell himself. But that is all, surprise. He is not so arrogant to think that only he could do such a thing, after all, this world is very big.

The first to stop laughing was Yue Kai and when he saw his expression getting a little ugly, Xie Feng frowned and asked, ”Hey, is something wrong?”.

Yue Kai spoke in a soft, low, and calm tone of voice as if nothing bad had happened when he asked: ”Big Brother Xie. Now that I think about it carefully, a moment ago you said 'but at least no one ever confused me with being a woman'... May I ask what you meant by that?”.

*Cough*... *Cough*... *Cough*

Hu Chen and Xiao Luo, who were laughing, started coughing furiously. Still coughing and with a look of incredulity, Xiao Luo answered him:

”I say, Yue Kai... Apart from you, is there anyone else here who has been confused with a woman? Big brother Xie Feng was naturally talking about you”.

Yue Kai stood up. His face was red and his body was apparently shaking with anger, ”You bastards! Do you really want to fight!?”.

Now it was Xie Feng's turn to join his friends and as if by agreement, the three of them backed up slightly and said:

”””Kek!”””

”Miss An had some last minute personal problems, so just a few moments ago she informed us that she will not be able to come to work today. So, all of you should study on your own during this free time. That is all”. After giving a brief but concise report, the English teacher left the classroom.

The full name of the teacher who could not come to work due to personal problems was Riu An, and she was a teacher of Economic History.

Yue Kai, the most playful of the four, turned around and supported his body on Xie Feng's table, ”Big Brother Xie, let's play basketball? The court is surely free at this time, we can use it for ourselves”.
