[“Pure White” has joined the “Dark Players Mutual Aid Group.”]
Bai Yue Ling waited for a while, but no one responded, so she typed:
[Pure White: Why’s no one talking?]
Ming Die tapped her head. “Duh, it’s 3 a.m. Who’s going to chat with you now?”
Fair enough.
She’d have to wait until daytime to see who was in the group.
Fingering the ring lightly, Bai Yue Ling looked up. “Anything else?”
“Nope.”
“Then at dawn, Ying Ye and I will follow Aiya to the capital to meet the third princess,” Bai Yue Ling said. “Want to come with us?”
Ming Die shook her head. “I’d rather stay in the castle and sleep.”
“Fair enough. You can keep Luoluo Yue company since she can’t go anywhere,”
Bai Yue Ling said, patting Ming Die’s shoulder. “Don’t miss me too much.”
Ming Die glanced at her.
“White Night Castle still needs a lot of work—comfy furniture, some elegant paintings, and a teleportation array so you can return anytime…”
Bai Yue Ling smirked inwardly.
All that talk just means you want a teleportation array to see me every day, huh?
She knew these big sisters’ tricks all too well.
With personal matters settled, it was time to head back to the first floor to sleep.
Otherwise, if Ying Ye and Aiya found out she’d been alone with Ming Die on the second floor, they’d definitely get the wrong idea.
As they descended the stairs, Bai Yue Ling’s curiosity sparked.
“By the way, can I check out the other floors of White Night Castle?”
She wanted to see if there were any other prisoners, maybe a succubus big sister like Luoluo Yue.
Ming Die seemed to see right through her.
“The third floor holds a dragon girl with a nasty temper. I suggest waiting until level 20 before challenging her… unless you’re eager to die now.”
Dragon girl?
Bai Yue Ling instinctively pressed her snowy thighs together, haunted by bad memories.
In her first cycle, she’d flirted with a dragon girl NPC, leading to a story she never wanted to relive.
Back then, she was naive, thinking a powerful, haughty dragon girl would be fun to conquer.
Then one night, that dragon girl scared her so badly she logged off immediately and didn’t return for three days.
Why was she so terrified?
Because dragon girls had thick, powerful tails far more agile than fingers.
Never mess with a big sister with a tail!—a lesson learned in blood and tears.
***
With dawn still hours away and Ying Ye and the others unlikely to wake up soon, Bai Yue Ling logged off to take a bath.
Leaning against the bathroom wall, she let the water cascade over her chest, her soft hips feeling the cold, hard tiles.
The contrast of hot water and cool porcelain left her feeling refreshed and alert.
It was the third day since World of Fate launched.
Bai Yue Ling was about to leave the novice village and step into a wider world.
Compared to casual players still grinding rabbits in their starting areas, her progress was lightning-fast.
Her goal was clear: head to the capital to take revenge on the Rose Kingdom’s third princess, who had betrayed her in a past life, leading to her “curl-feet” humiliation.
But how to exact revenge?
The third princess was a cunning, cold-blooded villainess, a master of mental magic who could read people like an open book. Ordinary schemes wouldn’t work on her.
“No matter what, I’ll start by making contact,” Bai Yue Ling muttered.
“The mission has no time limit, so I’ll figure it out once we’re in the capital.”
She dried off with a towel, ate a few pieces of bread, and rested in bed until 7 a.m. before entering the game pod again.
[Welcome to World of Fate.]
Back in the game, Aiya had woken from her meditation, cleansing herself with holy light under the morning sun.
Holy light was versatile—it could deal damage, heal, illuminate, ward off evil… its uses were endless, depending on how you wielded it.
Bai Yue Ling looked around, puzzled. “Where’s Ying Ye? Did she log off?”
“I’m right here.”
Ying Ye’s voice came from behind, startling Bai Yue Ling.
“Eek! How are you there… I didn’t even notice you?”
Turning, she saw Ying Ye leaning against the wall, wearing the ninja outfit Bai Yue Ling had given her, blending seamlessly into the shadows.
“I love this gear,” Ying Ye said with a smile.
“Great stats, lightweight, and perfect for stealth. Even you didn’t spot me this close, Little White.”
“Stats are secondary. The real perk is how sexy it is…” Bai Yue Ling mumbled.
The ninja outfit was primarily deep purple, with a sleeveless top that revealed a glimpse of underarm when raised, barely containing her ample chest.
A large bow cinched the waist, connecting to a tight skirt that just covered her hips, paired with long black boots that highlighted her snowy “absolute territory.”
It was elegant, practical, and combat-ready, adding an air of mystery and coolness to Ying Ye.
This outfit was made for her… Bai Yue Ling swallowed hard, thoroughly satisfied.
But Ying Ye had other thoughts.
She relished how well the outfit hid her presence, thinking,
‘With this stealth, I can tail Little White without her noticing. If I catch her flirting with another big sister, I’ll have every reason to “punish” her.’
“Everyone ready?” Aiya asked, her silver skirt armor gleaming with holy radiance in the sunlight.
“We’ll head to a nearby town to rent a carriage and aim to reach the capital by tomorrow morning.”
The capital was the Rose Kingdom’s bustling main city, a hub of intrigue and power where major factions converged.
As they prepared to leave, Luoluo Yue wailed reluctantly,
“Ugh, you Otherworld Travelers are all leaving! What’s a prisoner like me, stuck here, supposed to do…”
Bai Yue Ling frowned. “Isn’t Miss Ming Die staying to keep you company?”
Luoluo Yue’s face soured, and she sneered,
“Hmph, what good is a cold undead? This succubus needs the steamy passion of beautiful girls! Only desire can feed a succubus!”
Ming Die, lounging on her bone chair, said lazily, “Keep whining, and I’ll have Little White lock you back in the second-floor cell.”
“Sorry, my bad, please forgive me!”
“Weakling succubus~ Caving so easily.”
“Shut it, you gremlin!”
After a quick farewell to Ming Die and Luoluo Yue, Bai Yue Ling embarked on her new journey, aiming to corrupt the third princess and develop White Night Castle.
