[MTL, BL] After Retiring From Horror Game Boss

18

Somewhere in the west of the city.

Dark, cold, and damp, like the depths of a tomb filled with corpses, this environment felt familiar and warm to him.

This was a small locker, and the boy's figure was squeezed inside. There were old textbooks covered with dust piled around him, and he didn't seem to notice how shabby everything here had become. He just hugged them silently. His knees were staring at a rusty dust in a daze.

"Why did he send us away?" After a while, he said reluctantly.

He put his hand on his thin chest. There was no heart beating there at all. He was already completely dead. However, he still made such an action subconsciously, because there, the empty chest seemed to be emitting... A faint cry.

Human head: "If it weren't for that human being, we should have said a few more words to the master."

"It's him again."

"..."

The jealous eyes became a little cold, like a lurking poisonous snake, but the delicate face was full of coldness. Still paradoxically showing a sleepwalking expression, it always gives people a feeling of being weak and confused.

But at this moment, his gray eyes rarely showed such an intrusive and even distorted look, because there was only one person in his mind.

"Master." He closed his arms around himself, bit the collar of his shirt, and murmured softly.

From the moment he became conscious, the first special existence he saw was Yu Ziyu.

Yu Ziyu in the fantasy seemed to hear his voice, looked back in his mind, and gave him a cold gaze. Such a gaze made him feel intoxicated, obsessed and...warm. It was this kind of master that made him Afraid and longing for closeness.

However, even in his imagination, he did not dare to get too close to Yu Ziyu. He could only stare longingly at the extravagant figure, as pathetic as he was now.

Just as the supernatural management department guessed, it was absolutely correct. The powers of the other six bosses in the dungeon were all infected from Yu Ziyu, so they were able to retain their sanity and willingly call Yu Ziyu their master.

——It was Yu Ziyu who gave him strength.

Before that, he couldn't understand, let alone imagine, why he needed to participate in the hell paradise like a boss.

As a result, Jealous allowed his servants to entertain and kill the players who were brought in. However, he who should have formulated relevant copies and restrained and governed the first-level monsters, instead curled up in the locker and hugged him like an adolescent who evaded responsibilities. They formed a ball, holding the still bleeding human head, numbly listening to the screams that sounded from time to time.

Why... why is it him...

He doesn't know how to control all this, even if the game has told him everything.

His power comes from the emotion of "jealousy", but because he cannot find a basis for jealousy, so in his own level of paradise, he is a completely failed lord with other monsters climbing on his head to show off his power, even if he Actually don't care.

However, everything just happened.

Jealousy can't remember the date clearly, because all the time in Hell Paradise is chaotic, but he can never forget it, just like a person who has never eaten candy will remember the taste of the first candy, and the exploding feelings are still in my mind. It was unforgettable for him to wake up.

That day, the screams of the players that never stopped suddenly fell silent, and if he felt something, he finally raised his head from the movement of hugging himself, blinking his eyelashes tiredly, unable to think about what happened.

Then, the locker was suddenly pulled open from the outside.

"Squeak-"

The sound was very loud, and he slowly realized that something was coming.

Cobwebs and dust fell on Envy's body due to the opening movement. He moved his jerky limbs and stiffly twisted his neck to look at the culprit. At this time, a figure fell into his eyes against the bloody light. This The figure of Tao was by no means some god who came to save jealousy. It only took him less than a few seconds to quickly realize this.

"Get out." The young man said coldly.

From this angle, Envy could only see his black trench coat and the snake crawling on the ground, and the sudden light made the photophobic little monster shed tears, and he turned his head dryly.

"W-Who are you?"

His lips were dry, and he had forgotten how to speak fluent words. Every word was squeezed out of his throat.

"Good question, then who are you?" The other party asked him back.

"Who am I?" He was slightly startled, not knowing the answer.

"You are the jealous, irresponsible boss on the first floor who makes players die meaninglessly and tragically." The young man leaned over and said coldly, and then he actually pulled him out and threw him to the ground without mercy. , so that he can no longer hide himself in the locker.

Envy couldn't see his facial features clearly because the young man put on the hood of his large windbreaker and deliberately let a black mist cover his upper body, blurring his face, but Envy could feel that he was looking at him. The strong young man was frowning, as if he was showing dissatisfaction after looking at him.

"..."

All Envy could do was stare at him in a daze.

"Take care of your servants." He clicked his tongue and said with disgust, "Although I am not a human being and I don't care about what you are doing, to be honest, those who are dragged into this game are more or less to blame for themselves, because since If you want to get something that doesn't belong to you, you have to take the risk of losing your life, but the problem is - you killed too many people."

The smell of blood reached the upper level, and it reached the point where he had to intervene.

Jealousy knows that a large part of this is definitely his responsibility, because he did not act according to the rules of the game.

The rules of hell paradise are like this. If human beings have strong desires, terrible negative emotions will breed. Not only will they do things in the worst way to get this desire...or they just have strong attachments. , they meet the conditions to enter here.

In each level, players can accumulate points in various ways, and these points can be exchanged for the things they dream of in the mall. Especially the final reward for passing the level is extremely attractive - they can realize any wish.

Jealousy is the lord of the first level... or rather the game planner, and his self-destruction caused all the monster materials to run around, harming the players without any rules, resulting in a high-intensity escape that simply did not allow the players to successfully pass the level. hope.

"You are more cowardly and incompetent than I thought."

Hearing this, Envy suddenly raised his head and stared at the young man helplessly. His emotions fluctuated because of these words.

"Next time something like this happens, I will kill you immediately."

This is definitely not just a joke.

The other party said in disgust, as if he was looking at some rubbish. Jealousy trembled subconsciously and looked away. Only then did he notice the corpses of several monsters lying at his feet. Not far away, several young men suddenly appeared to save them. The injured player who came down is shrinking back in horror, not understanding what is happening here.

I saw that the young man thought of something and turned to look at them. On the faces shrouded in black mist, there seemed to be a flash of red light in the eyes. Soon, the eyes of the players changed from frightened to confused, and they turned around. He turned around and left like a wandering spirit.

Then, the other party withdrew his gaze and said coldly: "Remember, I am Arrogance - the lord of the seventh level, your master."

He was so strong, confident and indifferent, and jealousy found that his body was shaking, but it was by no means complete. It was because of fear, but because he discovered that the young man in front of him was the same existence as him, but so strong that it was impossible to ignore. Everything about them was completely opposite, which made him unconsciously attracted by such a special figure. .

His godless eyes seemed to have finally found a place to focus, and he stared at the other person steadily.

Then, the young man knelt down half-kneeling. Jealousy was startled and subconsciously shrank back, but the other party just stretched out his hand and stroked his cheek, as if he was teasing an immature cat cub. Such teasing made Jealousy feel... Strange, but surprisingly not disgusting. He narrowed his eyes to enjoy it and heard the other person say: "Be good, jealous, I don't want to replace you."

"Do you think I can do it?"

"Otherwise." The young man said mockingly. He snorted lowly.

The non-existent heart beat, and from the place where the two people's skin touched, there was an absolute control and oppression, and Jealousy trembled slightly with excitement.

"Take care of your ugly servants." The young man said, "Don't let me find out that you let them kill players again."

"I, I will..." After a while, the voice of jealousy was as weak as the buzzing of mosquitoes and flies. "Master."

"Say it again."

He raised his chin. It was obvious that his figure was almost the same as that of Envy, even thinner than him, but he looked so strong and arrogant and could not be offended: "What are you talking about? I'll be louder."

"I'll do it," Envy was forced to say again.

The young man stared at him for a while, but seemed to find no trace of lying on his face. Then he retracted his fingers with satisfaction, stood up, and was about to turn around and leave. Jealousy reached out to grab his windbreaker, but the material missed his fingers. Well, he failed.

The young man looked back at him.

"Will we meet again?" Jealousy's eyes were full of expectation. He was very attached to the other person's brief touch.

He only needed this as a reward. The young man's strength was very useful to him. It gave him the feeling that he was no longer forgotten in the locker, but that someone finally realized and recognized his existence... Jealousy was waiting. An answer, his fingers tightening nervously on the edges of his shirt.

"If you do better than the others, it's very possible, because I like obedient children."

He was happy at the answer at first, but then his body suddenly solidified.

How many others...? Jealousy was startled by this, oh, yes, there are seven levels of Hell Paradise, and he is only the boss on the first level. There are other monsters in the darkness, so will the young man treat other bosses like he does now...?

Dark emotions quietly grew in his heart. Jealousy knew that it was not until this moment that he got the chance to take the first step towards becoming a real monster...

Because he finally remembered how to be jealous, so he got Gain your own power.

"..."

In the darkness, the still crouched figure of this young man was like a flickering candle, weakly blending into a mass of dark ink in the locker. After a while, Jealousy said to the head: "We can't stand other people's treatment. I can't bear the risk of losing him when I'm with my master."

The twisted and intense feelings of love almost burst out from those gray eyes.

The head in his arms laughed: "This seems to be the first time we have reached a consensus."

"As for the savior, he will not live long."

This is what the game informed him. Of course they will all see it, with jealous eyes darkly saying: "I We will find him and solve all the trouble before he threatens the master."

He cast his gaze into the air, where an updated game panel appeared. At this moment, Jealousy's name was marked, and all players would see him. The hiding place - the old abandoned school area in the west of the city, where a dark green light is shining, and they will soon realize how reality has changed.

"Right here."

Envy raised his head and said coldly. As his words fell, urban legends would come true, the magnetic field would be disrupted, and supernatural phenomena would begin to run around like rats in the sewer, spreading like a virus...

It was Jealousy's active alienation . He has come to terms with reality and re-selected his territory, and now, the copy of the first level of the game has finally been opened.

***

At the same time, in a certain room on the third floor.

After Lou Chen fell silent, he said, "I will not let jealousy or arrogance hurt Yu Ziyu."

"What do you mean?"

Not far from him, a man with a haggard face was sitting.

He was the previous minister, and it was precisely because of his invitation that Lou Chen joined the supernatural management department. However, this young man refused the request to become a minister and now only serves as the captain of the task force.

Now his late night visit clearly shows that the situation is extraordinary.

"Lao Yu, Yu Ziyu must become the minister of the supernatural management department. This is not me." Lou Chen narrowed his eyes. He leaned against the door frame with his arms folded, pointed his fingers, and slowly said, "This position It is destined to be his, even if he does not want to admit it, and I will wait for him to change his mind."

"He is just an unarmed photographer. If he becomes a minister, he will not convince everyone."

"A good leader. There is no need to charge into battle. "

In that case, what about you?" Hearing this, Lao Yu frowned.

"You said so, the answer should be obvious," Lou Chen curled his lips, "Me? Of course I am the knight who protects him."

He should have explained his motives, but then, he just stared quietly. Void, thinking of the missing companion.

He was looking forward to the day when he would confront Arrogance. Since the savior Yu Ziyu had appeared, then... the ancestor of supernatural power was destined to come, and then it would be their time of reckoning.
