Chapter 202: Why Was I Recognized in the Real World?

Why

Why would someone recognize her in the real world?!

Bai Yue Ling sprinted toward her home, her long legs pumping as the bag in her hand and the two large white rabbits inside bounced merrily with each step.

Behind her, a girl wearing a rabbit-ear hat chased closely, reaching out as she called, “Don’t run, Priest Hero, listen to me…”

“I’ve got nothing to say to you!”

Bai Yue Ling wasn’t running only because she’d been recognized. Another reason was that she had a very deep impression of this rabbit-ear girl.

Because she was the vice-president of the large guild To Wine and Song — Miss Jiu!

Just like Yingye, she was someone who, in past lives, had made Bai Yue Ling “kick her legs.”

And not only in the game. During the fifth reincarnation, Bai Yue Ling hadn’t played Fate World at all. She’d thought that by doing so she could avoid death. Yet a few people had broken into her home using in-game abilities and made her “kick her legs” in real life.

She clearly remembered that Miss Jiu was one of them.

As she ran, Miss Jiu shouted, “Priest Hero, so you live in this neighborhood too!”

Without looking back, Bai Yue Ling said, “I’m not Priest Hero. You’ve got the wrong person!”

“No way I’m wrong. A white-haired girl under one point five meters tall with such a huge chest — there’s only one in the world!”

“Don’t identify people by their chest!”

There were hardly any pedestrians in the complex at the moment, so no one heard the shouting as the two girls chased each other.

…

…

Because she was carrying a heavy bag, Bai Yue Ling quickly became breathless and was soon caught by Miss Jiu behind her.

As the distance closed, Miss Jiu suddenly leapt high like a rabbit and pounced, tackling Bai Yue Ling into a nearby flowerbed.

“Hehe… got you, Priest Hero~”

Miss Jiu grinned mischievously and straddled her, bracing both hands on either side of Bai Yue Ling’s neck so she couldn’t move.

Watching the rabbit-ear girl draw closer, Bai Yue Ling’s expression gradually spiraled out of control.

‘Oh no, oh no… this close — my social-phobia passive is about to trigger again.’

“Priest Hero, General Shijian returned in crushing defeat last night. That must have something to do with you, right?” Miss Jiu asked with a giggle. “I even suspect that Nature’s Archbishop came to the Panlong Mountains just to find you. Am I right… huh?”

Bai Yue Ling lay on the ground babbling incoherently, eyes unfocused and dazed, not hearing a word she said.

Miss Jiu frowned slightly and pinched Bai Yue Ling’s cheek without ceremony. “Strange… didn’t everyone say Priest Hero is a bratty little gremlin? Then what’s with this completely helpless weakling?”

Could it be… I actually got the wrong person, and she’s Priest Hero’s twin sister?

No matter what, better get her back to normal first.

Miss Jiu tentatively stood up and noticed Bai Yue Ling’s pale complexion improving a bit.

She stepped back a few more paces and saw Bai Yue Ling’s lips stop wobbling in waves.

Finally, she retreated completely outside the flowerbed — and watched Bai Yue Ling dust herself off, stand up…

…and immediately turn and run!

“Don’t run! I mean no harm — I came to invite you to join our To Wine and Song guild!”

“Get lost, dead rabbit! Go home and eat your carrots!”

“Carrots? I don’t eat carrots. I usually use them to stuff—”

“That’s exactly what I meant!”

Bai Yue Ling dashed to the entrance of her apartment building, swiped her access card to open the iron gate, and slipped inside.

Miss Jiu, without a card, could only stand outside, watching helplessly as Bai Yue Ling entered the elevator and disappeared from sight.

“Damn, such a good chance and I still didn’t catch her.” Miss Jiu shook her head. “But at least I know which building Priest Hero lives in.”

She turned and looked at the residential tower across from it, smiling. “Who would’ve thought the famous Priest Hero lives in the same complex as me — and our buildings face each other. What fate.”

“Whatever, I know where she lives now. We’ll meet again eventually.” Hands on hips, Miss Jiu said without the slightest discouragement, “She can’t possibly stay inside forever.”

Having figured that out, Miss Jiu skipped home, her pair of rabbit ears bobbing up and down like a cheerful hopping bunny.

But neither Bai Yue Ling nor Miss Jiu knew that someone had silently witnessed everything that had just happened.

Mu Yao stood by the window, blinking her lively, expressive eyes.

“So Xiao Bai really is Priest Hero…”

Her pink lips curved slightly into a wicked, enchanting smile, and her entire aura shifted instantly from pure young girl to seductive beauty.

If Bai Yue Ling saw this scene, she would definitely cry out, “This isn’t the Mu Yao I know!”

But the cute little Bai had no idea any of this was happening.

She was sprawled limp on her sofa at home, panting.

“The real-world identity I worked so hard to hide… exposed just like that…”

In fact, three people already knew.

Guodong asked, “She just came to invite you, right? Why didn’t you agree?”

“Because Miss Jiu has serious issues,” Bai Yue Ling said gravely. “And the To Wine and Song guild has serious issues too!”

As early as the first reincarnation, Bai Yue Ling had met that little rabbit girl, Miss Jiu.

She was lively, cheerful, friendly, and warm — a star player adored by countless people. By chance she met Bai Yue Ling, who at the time was a shameless lily-sea queen playgirl. The two hit it off immediately, chatting happily and sharing a bed the very first night.

It sounded quite wonderful, but Bai Yue Ling didn’t continue the story. She slipped away without saying goodbye the next morning and went to find another older sister.

The reason she left wasn’t that Miss Jiu was bad — it was because… her skills were simply too good.

…

!

It was said Miss Jiu had the dream of “becoming the most technically skilled courtesan in the world,” and after entering Fate World, the first thing she did was join the Judgement Church and deeply study the course “how to use the smallest finger movements to cause the greatest degree of living hell.”

So little Bai was completely no match.

And the To Wine and Song guild she belonged to was also not very normal.

The guild atmosphere was friendly, harmonious, free-spirited, and open. Naturally, this bred many overly intimate relationships.

It was said members often flirted while grinding levels, and before long their leveling sessions would move to the inn, with parties happening frequently.

The president and vice-presidents didn’t participate in such parties, but they didn’t deliberately stop them either, because the guild’s principle was “freedom and happiness.”

How free and happy? Put it this way: when Bai Yue Ling’s secret of juggling more than ten partners was exposed, Yingye’s first reaction was “you’re dead,” while Miss Jiu’s reaction was “why wasn’t I counted in?”

In short… the experience of nine past reincarnations taught Bai Yue Ling a profound lesson: do not interact with members of To Wine and Song. The closer you are to them, the closer “kicking your legs” comes to you!

After returning home with groceries, Bai Yue Ling rested a bit, made a simple dinner, then browsed the forums while waiting for maintenance to end.

Without realizing it, she fell asleep. When she woke, the server had already been live for one hour.

“Huff… log in, log in!”

Bai Yue Ling hurried into her game pod, returning to the Fate World she longed for.

[Respected Priest Hero, welcome to Fate World.]
