A Conversation with the God of Revelry

After Li Hua awoke, the voice of the Deity sounded again.

"Adding 'leisure' to 'calm'... is barely acceptable."

"I'll reward you with a rope."

Then, the others gradually woke up as well.

The voices of the Deity rang out one after another.

Among them, Qianhuan, Robin, and A'yu all received two ropes.

Mosin-Nagant is the same as Li Hua.

And Grandpa Radish showed his Good luck again, getting a total of three ropes.

After everyone finished their drinks...

The God of Revelry spoke once more.

"Alright, everyone... this banquet has now come to an end."

"I will see you all off shortly—and will give you a small gift with you."

"The value of a souvenir depends on the number of ropes you possess."

After the God of Revelry finished speaking, most people breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's finally over..."

I can't believe it Grandpa Radish said, still shaken.

Robin nodded. "Yes..."

Undoubtedly, even for these experts...

The Instance before us is already extremely dangerous.

In fact, due to their own strength and rich experience, they may not have encountered a "life-or-death" Instance for a long time.

But this time...

They really almost died—just now, they nearly fell into Abyss of no return.

So...

When the Deity himself declared that the Game was over and about to end.

They even had a sense of unreality.

"That's it?"

This question inevitably arose in everyone's mind.

But...

In any case, it's a good thing that this messy and dangerous Instance has come to an end!

Of course, everyone present is also well aware of this...

Aside from the fact that this Instance itself involves Deity and is extremely difficult, there is another reason why everyone is in such a sorry state.

Fluoxetine.

Li Hua looked at the girl sitting next to him, who was resting her chin on her hand, and called out her name.

The Gambler looked very serious.

"After I get out, I will definitely come to Jiang City to find you."

I hope you won't break your promise.

Lin Yu smiled broadly as she looked at Li Hua's serious expression.

"Then I'll definitely look forward to it!"

After Lin Yu and Li Hua finished their conversation...

"Whoosh--"

Li Hua's chair and his two ropes were suddenly lifted, and his entire figure disappeared.

Mosin-Nagant also disappeared along with it.

Then, Qianhuan, Robin, and A'yu also disappeared.

Finally, there's the Carrot.

In just a few seconds, only Lin Yu remained among the Player on the field.

Then, the voice of the Deity rang out again.

"So... how's your thinking about what happened earlier?"

A new chair slowly descended, upon which sat a miniature version of the God of Revelry, cutting steak with a knife and fork.

He picked up a piece of steak, put it in his mouth, and looked at Lin Yu.

"I made sure to save you for last—now no one will interrupt our conversation."

Lin Yu looked at the God of Revelry, stroked his chin, and asked.

"I'm thinking about it, and... I have a few questions I'd like to ask you, is that alright?"

"Of course," said the God of Revelry, forking up half a potato. "However, I may not be able to answer your questions about matters outside of the banquet, after all, I am not the God of Wisdom."

"You now have eight ropes—I'll allow you to ask me two questions."

Lin Yu nodded.

"Two questions... that should be enough."

"The questions I asked were also related to the 'banquet,' and even specifically to this particular 'banquet.'"

"My first question is, I want to know what the Octopus would have served me if I had chosen [dessert]."

The God of Revelry looked at Octopus Ka, who was washing dishes in the pool.

"Card, the customer is asking you a question."

Upon hearing Lin Yu's words, Ka quickly raised his head.

"Oh, well... I'm planning to make a dessert called [Narrative Trick], which will probably look like a Brush Pen."

Hearing Ka's words, Lin Yu couldn't help but admire his own wise decision to refuse the dessert earlier.

Luckily, he didn't take it.

Otherwise, if this [Narrative Trick] were served, Lin Yu really wouldn't know how to clean himself up.

Certainly...

Now that there was no one around, Lin Yu could finally ask them.

After all, knowing the approximate appearance of a certain "Tier 2" Item in advance is not without its advantages.

This also serves as a way to confirm...

"As expected, the disguise of [the Mask] cannot fool the Deity and their agents."

Lin Yu sighed and said.

The God of Revelry interjected at the opportune moment. "No, the things on your face that have altered your appearance are beyond the comprehension of even me..."

"Even in that 'daydream' just now, I couldn't see your true face clearly."

"Until now, I can only vaguely discern some aspects of your identity—there is an entity equal to me obscuring your information... I can only deduce from your behavior at the banquet and the content of your dream that your 'Profession' is probably related to 'acting'."

As the God of Revelry spoke, Lin Yu looked at him in surprise.

This Deity doesn't seem to be lying.

Rather, it's more accurate to say that... Deity like the God of Change, who are so keen on Deception mortals, are probably a very small minority.

Moreover, Lin Yu also knew perfectly well who was probably covering for him.

The Crow mark on my wrist says it all.

Therefore, Lin Yu chose to believe what the God of Revelry said.

"You guessed correctly, regarding both Profession and 'Deity'..."

"So, my second question is..."

"What do you mean by saying I'm an uninvited guest?"

The God of Revelry put down his knife and fork, and used a napkin to wipe the spout of the teapot.

"Because the other six people came to the banquet after receiving my invitation... This is different from the other Game they participated in; what they saw was roughly like this."

With a wave of his hand, the God of Revelry unleashed a line of writhing blood-red characters.

"A special Instance awaits your participation. Would you like to accept the invitation?"

"This Instance was originally intended as a preliminary assessment for my selection of agents. These six are all Player I've observed who have potential... Compared to them, your 'rank' is still slightly lower, so you can't understand."

"This banquet is actually very beneficial to their next step—you'll understand once you've gone through the same number of 'Tier Advancement' as them."

"Of course, that's beside the point... Let's get back to you."

"In addition to the six I personally selected, I reserved one random spot, leaving it to 'Destiny' to decide."

"And what was unexpected, yet not surprising..."

"The guest brought by Destiny was indeed the most suitable one."

"Although you've only been in this Game for a short time, I believe..."

"You are the perfect 'Human Realm Agent' for me!"

The God of Revelry spoke with unwavering conviction.

Lin Yu looked at him and spoke with a smile.

"Thank you for your kind words. I have finished asking my questions."

So what's your decision?

"The God of Revelry asked earnestly."

Lin Yu's smile widened as he gave his answer.

My decision is...
