"Great Emperor, how did you leave Luowasha?" Su Ming'an asked.

The Jellyfish Emperor finished chewing the jellyfish skin and lazily leaned back in the chair, sipping on milk tea. He reluctantly freed one of his noble hands to draw the outline of a mask in the air: "A colorful smiling face monster brought me out."

"Kasadia..." Su Ming'an originally thought the Fun Demon had disappeared.

"It will be back to pick me up after a while, you can catch a ride back." Su Liujin lazily leaned against the chair: "During this time, consider it a holiday, and relax by letting Sique take charge."

"Why did Kasadia bring you out?"

Su Liujin drooped his eyelids, the straw making a slurping sound: "It said Luowasha has been unstable lately, to prevent the last Lighthouse Jellyfish from being eaten, it threw itself wholeheartedly into the protection of endangered species, saying 'Protect jellyfish, starting with myself.'

...A load of nonsense.

Seeing Su Liujin's simple face, Su Ming'an knew there must be ulterior motives from Kasadia. For instance, as long as Su Liujin and Su Ming'an meet, Su Ming'an could learn about the ride back, then follow Kasadia back. All Kasadia had to do was take further actions to completely hijack Su Ming'an's account, which wouldn't be difficult.

"You left me a note on the bed in Red Tower Kingdom because Kasadia told you I would come?" Su Ming'an said.

"Ah, yes." Su Liujin said: "I don't mind if you hijack my account, feel free to use it, as long as you don't do anything weird with my body."

With this, the information matched up. Su Liujin really was an innocent, simple jellyfish, inexplicably fished out from the sea, becoming a substitute for the Red Tower Kingdom's princess, and then inexplicably taken out of Luowasha by Kasadia. Su Ming'an thought of another suspicious person: "So, what about Hui Bai?"

"Hui Bai?"

"The one who took care of you in Red Tower Kingdom, took you shopping, sightseeing, divination..."

Su Liujin's expression went blank for a moment, his fingers trembled unnaturally.

Su Ming'an could tell this expression wasn't feigned, it was Su Liujin's first reaction upon hearing the name. His golden eyes showed a hint of confusion, as if this name was quite unfamiliar to him.

"Hui... Bai?" Su Liujin repeated: "Sea Emperor?"

"Not the Sea Emperor, just called Hui Bai."

"Hui Bai." Su Liujin lowered his head to think, he seemed to see a vast ocean with small boats drifting by, the scenery was beautiful, but unrelated to the current situation. He carefully recalled for a moment: "I don't know this person."

"You should have communicated with him for a few days, after you were fished up by Red Tower Kingdom, he took care of you until I came through." Su Ming'an said.

"Really? It seems like there was someone taking care of me... golden hair, blue eyes, silver hairband, called Hui Bai, apparently a minor noble of Red Tower Kingdom." Su Liujin tilted his head: "He was nice to me, I don't dislike him, but he seemed quite weak."

Judging by Su Liujin's words, Hui Bai didn't seem to be anything special, just a pure Red Tower scoundrel. It's just that his siblings were quite robust.

"Understood." Su Ming'an had extracted all the information from Su Liujin and stood up satisfied: "Excuse me."

—He needed to find someone.

Since Su Liujin could use the backdoor to come out, he also needed to use the backdoor to go back. He couldn't let Sique manipulate everything, that Magpie was full of mischief.

Boss Rabbit was out of the question, it would definitely laugh it off and refuse him. The Junk King had disappeared, wandering who knows where. Kasadia was obviously on the iron-blooded Sique's side. Aria was neutral and might not help him. He was unfamiliar with the Sixth to Tenth Seats. The only ones he could turn to for help were Starfire, who called him a "good man," and the Eleventh Seat who always said, "Only I stand on the same side as you."

"Hey, are you resting already? Want to play a game of jellyfish chess? I often played by myself in the sea." Su Liujin's voice came from behind.

"You guys play." Su Ming'an quickly left.

What he didn't see was Su Liujin silently watching his back, with a deep, lingering gaze.

...

"Knock, knock, knock." Finger joints tapped on the table, Su Ming'an called into the air: "Starfire, can you hear me? I have something I want to discuss with you."

Between the Eleventh Seat and Starfire, Su Ming'an chose to seek help from Starfire, since Starfire was a Luo Washa. He wasn't sure if calling the name aloud would reach Starfire.

A light breeze blew, flowers and leaves interwove outside the window, and he heard the faint sound of bells, followed by a tall shadow cast behind him, accompanied by the scent of jasmine.

...Starfire had arrived? That was quick.

"Tap, tap, tap."

Su Ming'an immediately turned around and saw — a large, plump rabbit whose ears touched the ceiling, standing over two meters tall.

...Why was it Boss Rabbit instead?

Its blood-red eyes stared at Su Ming'an, filled with an inorganic coldness, as if brewing with bloodlust.

At that moment, Su Ming'an felt an intense sense of danger, as if he was instantly targeted by a cold-blooded predator.

But in the next moment, Boss Rabbit quickly retracted that icy expression, its pupils curved with a familiar mischievous grin, as if the killing intent just now was a mere illusion.

"Oh dear, the dear Number One Player actually chose to call someone else, I've finally fallen out of favor, boo hoo hoo..." Boss Rabbit wriggled its plump body, layers of blood-red flesh undulating back and forth, even pulling out a handkerchief with its big white hand to wipe away crocodile tears from its cheek, filled with sorrow: "In the past, the dear Number One Player would call my name when in trouble, now there's a new love, and I'm no longer needed, boo hoo hoo..."

Su Ming'an: "Indeed."

Boss Rabbit displayed a shocked expression, wriggling like a worm: "Have I been rejected? Boo hoo hoo... my caring was all in vain..."

Su Ming'an clasped his hands together, seated at the desk, and suddenly spoke:

"Boss Rabbit, is the Eleventh World... really Luowasha?"

His eyes flashed sharply, staring at Boss Rabbit's expression, this was a question he had pondered for a long time.

Boss Rabbit's bright red eyes lit up with joy, as if its earlier crying was just a performance, now it truly found it interesting, and its big white hand supported its chin: "...Oh?"

The tears on its face disappeared suddenly, it leaned over, arms behind its back, and said with a playful smile: "Bunny doesn't know oh~"

Its expression changed quickly, and at that moment its expression was like that of a murderer who had just finished a kill.

Su Ming'an's fingers tapped on the table, and in the silent room, only the rhythmic tapping sound echoed. One person and one rabbit stared silently at each other, one expressionless, the other with a cold smile.

Boss Rabbit's attitude toward him had changed.

Su Ming'an could clearly feel it.

If in the past the attitude was still like treating a toy or a pet, not worrying about him causing trouble. Recently Boss Rabbit began to regard him with an equal and dangerous look, as if hoping for a brave warrior to stand out, or wary of a tiger or leopard that might suddenly burst out at any time.

Click-clack—

As the boundary between the Main God World and the game instance grew thinner, the aquarium's glass wall that separated them was gradually cracking.

Rustle, rustle.

The flowers and leaves outside the window continued to drift unknowingly. Just then, the last inch of the sunset silently fell on the distant horizon, light and swift, and in an instant, the brilliance vanished, as if changing from polar day to polar night in a moment. The night fell abruptly upon them.

——The rabbit's warmly smiling bright red eyes instantly turned as thick as blood.

Its blood-colored vertical pupils shone in the darkness, like the eyes of a hunter.

"...I'm here, did you call for me?"

At this moment, a sound came from the air, and a purple-haired black-robed man appeared on the floor, with eyes as bright as the moon. Perhaps not expecting the Boss Rabbit to be here, Starfire was surprised for a moment.

"Alright, alright, the protagonist is here, I'll be leaving. I'm not welcome here, and even dear Number One Player is tired of me... I'm going to turn dark." The Boss Rabbit bashfully drooped its rabbit ears, retreated dejectedly, and its figure gradually dissolved into the night. Then, it disappeared.

Su Ming'an's heartbeat was rapid; if Starfire hadn't appeared in time, the Boss Rabbit's eyes in that moment were very dangerous, with a look as if wanting to devour him whole.

"Starfire, I want to return to Luowasha." Su Ming'an expressed his request.

"You've come to the right person, only I and Kasadia can help you achieve this, others are unfamiliar with Luowasha and are still restricted by the [Rules]." Starfire nodded: "But even to accomplish such a trivial thing, I must pay a price. Although I am unconditionally helping you, you must remember, make sure to seize the opportunity in the Main God World, gather all the information before returning."

"Time?"

"I need to prepare for a while, I'll call you when it's ready."

"I didn't see you in Luowasha, where are you?"

"You will see me, later on." Starfire left quickly. It seemed like their interaction was just a transaction, without any twists and turns.

Su Ming'an sat quietly under the night, gazing at the deep darkness of the room. In that moment, the feeling of loneliness descended silently upon him.

Faint music came from outside the door, likely Lin Yin and Su Liujin were still listening to music.

He opened the live broadcast room, quickly checked the status of each player——and then, he saw something incredibly horrific.

This was an answer he wouldn't have thought of even after racking his brains.

...

[Bei Wang's Live Room]

[Popularity: 90 million]

[Popularity Ranking: No.5]

Bei Wang's live room had never been very popular; he was silent and not much of a performer. Only those who liked him stayed to watch.

But recently, his live room seemed to have been launched like a rocket, its popularity soared dramatically. Almost everyone passing by would stop and watch, becoming engrossed at a glance. The comments also increased several times, as if he suddenly became a sensation.

The reason is nothing else. It's not because he suddenly spoke eloquently, nor because he started creating performances, but because——

On the live screen, stood a woman with long ice-blue hair.

Her eyes were indifferent, her demeanor aloof, her beauty unparalleled, as if a snowy peak or a glacier flower. A long white robe draped over her, her long hair flowing, with an ice sword at her waist.

She was riding a white crane, flying towards the sky, passing through layers of blood-red clouds.

"Lady Tian Yu, are we leaving the Undead Territory now?" asked the attendant beside her.

"The Goddess of Life is dead, Fu En sacrificed, the Undead Territory has fallen into Aier and Sique's hands... this matter must be reported. As a protagonist candidate, I also need to gain more support in the Sky Plane." Tian Yu said lightly. Her pupils were pale, like the snow of the Tianshan Mountains. She placed a witch hat on her head and donned a hexagonal snow-colored robe.

Su Ming'an was dumbfounded.

...Tian Yu?

Why are you in Bei Wang's live room, using Bei Wang's main perspective, wearing Bei Wang's hat and clothes?

Although when Su Ming'an first saw Tian Yu, he thought she was a gender-swapped Bei Wang, it was clearly a joke, who could have thought...

Comments flew by quickly:

[This Luowasha is too wild, even gender-swapping is a thing!]

[Haha! Not a single player realized Tian Yu is actually Bei Wang! Even Su Ming'an didn't realize this afternoon!]

[After all, the speed of speech became normal, no longer a mute.]

[Am I the only one who feels strange? Is this really Bei Wang's gender swap, it seems a bit different in personality...]

[What nonsense are you saying? This is Bei Wang's live room! The first-person perspective of the livestream can't be anyone but Bei Wang! Bei Wang is a member of the Witch Race, although it started as a male, changing gender later is quite normal.]

…

Tian Yu looked at these rapidly flowing comments and gently sighed.

At first, she was a bit panicked, not quite used to the language of these comment streams, but she gradually got used to it later.

Long ago, she had a dream.

The God of Doom told her she would be possessed by someone named "Bei Wang," and everything would be taken away from her. She was a proud person, unwilling to be replaced, yet unwilling to harm others. So when Bei Wang crossed over, she did not immediately activate the Sleeping Spell Formation, but instead borrowed the God of Doom's help to leave a remnant of her consciousness inside.

She allowed Bei Wang to dominate her body, and since she was a member of the Witch Race, able to change gender at will, Bei Wang opted for a male form. She quietly watched his actions, indifferent as long as he did not go too far.

Until the third day of the instance, she was suddenly chosen by the World Tree as a protagonist candidate, and if she failed the competition, she would be torn to pieces. At that moment, she understood, although Bei Wang seemed smart, she had to take control of her own destiny, no longer allowing Bei Wang to act freely.

So, she activated the Sleeping Spell Formation, taking back her body, switching to a female form, and appearing to others with her real name "Tian Yu."

However, she almost got caught, as her sudden change raised suspicions among the comments, but she quickly disguised herself after the initial panic, saying it was necessary for the task, requiring gender swap.

Thus, the Lezi people laughed and spread the "Bei Wang's gender swap" story across the live room, only caring about how funny it was, not realizing the real Bei Wang was already asleep.

"I'm sorry." Tian Yu thought silently to herself.

Although you are a player favored by the world, meant to enjoy thrilling adventures.

But, I too have my own story to tell.

This is... a story personally written by an "NPC who should have had their role taken away."
