LV67+3

An Intense Game

Silver Wolf, in ultra-serious mode, had racked up an astonishing score!

2:3

2:3

0:3

"Have you been practicing in secret?" Silver Wolf truly couldn't understand it.

Silver Wolf had won and lost throughout the entire night of gaming, so how could she fail to win even a single round against Kawaba Mutsumi?

"No, I went to sleep after talking with you yesterday." Kawaba Mutsumi spoke very seriously.

The maid, Ye Yu, had completely switched into spectator mode. Sitting on the edge of the bed on the other side, she held a plate and leaned forward to watch Kawaba Mutsumi's game screen.

In the end, Silver Wolf could only reach one conclusion. "You really are talented at games, but! This is only a fighting game. We'll switch to something else later."

"Mm, okay." Kawaba Mutsumi nodded. Faced with Silver Wolf's obviously challenging tone, she felt no pressure at all.

Because she had realized that although Silver Wolf looked a little short and spoke rather arrogantly, she was actually a total saint with huge boobs. (Huge where?)

Silver Wolf put away the game console and said, "Perfect timing. Your sister's here. Open the door."

Ye Yu got up, set down the plate, and went to open the door.

A uniformed woman with shoulder-length hair stood outside. Her outfit was crisp and efficient, without excessive decoration, yet every detail revealed the air of someone long accustomed to a managerial position. "Sorry for the wait."

"Sister Yue, you arrived seventeen minutes earlier than you said you would." After opening the door, Ye Yu stepped aside.

"Mm." She casually closed the door behind her. "Hello, Silver Wolf. I didn't expect you to arrive so quickly."

Silver Wolf teased, "Did you just rush over from the company?"

"Mm. Nice to meet you, I'm Kawaba Yue." Kawaba Yue gave a slight nod.

Silver Wolf indicated that she understood. "Mm, when did you find out... about the game-related matters?"

"You're interested in that?" Kawaba Yue hadn't expected Silver Wolf to be here for this.

Silver Wolf spoke casually. "Of course I'm curious. After all, I want to know how you feel. It's pretty shocking, isn't it?"

"There's not much to say. It was unexpected, but also understandable." Kawaba Yue summed it up. "After all, we gathered enough information that we were bound to notice something. I also investigated this so-called company many times in real life."

"Oh, oh, you even took action offline. So you didn't find out anything at all?"

"That's right."

"Ohoho, then it looks like official forces are involved~" Silver Wolf reached her conclusion in an instant. "So I suppose there was no further investigation after that?"

"Mm." Kawaba Yue nodded, indicating that Silver Wolf's guess was correct. "At the very least, we need to be prepared now."

Ye Yu stared at Kawaba Yue and Kawaba Mutsumi in surprise. "Oh my god, Sister Yue and Sister Mutsumi, you knew so early!?"

Kawaba Mutsumi gave an awkward laugh. "Ahahaha... I only found out one day earlier than you, Sister Yu."

Kawaba Yue was more straightforward. "No, Xiaoyu. Before, it was only a guess. I only confirmed it yesterday as well."

"Being able to guess it was already amazing enough!" Ye Yu looked at Kawaba Yue in astonishment.

Silver Wolf spoke up. "Actually, I have one small problem..."

"What is it?"

"I can't exactly live rough, can I?" Silver Wolf expressed her helplessness.

"That's true..." Kawaba Yue nodded. "Don't worry, we can arrange something shortly. Do you need me to... get you an identity?"

"Your company handles that kind of business?"

"We have our methods."

"Then there's no need. I took care of it last night." Forging an identity was child's play for Silver Wolf. She had even hacked into and modified Phanes's Game System; this childish network was nothing by comparison.

"Xiaoyu, go call the butler. Have him prepare lunch, and tell him that a good friend is visiting," Kawaba Yue said.

"Yes." Ye Yu left.

"Then I can have a taste of your cooking~" Silver Wolf continued, taking a plate of mangoes from the food cart.

Kawaba Yue looked at the Cartridge in Kawaba Mutsumi's hand. "This is?"

"Silver Wolf gave it to me... I can use my account from the game." Kawaba Mutsumi explained.

Kawaba Yue did not continue asking. Instead, she gave Silver Wolf a deep bow. "Thank you, Wolf Venerable."

Silver Wolf shuddered all over. "Hm? There's no need. It was just something I did in passing."

Silver Wolf had never come here to become some so-called local emperor, or someone like Homelander. As one who walked the Path of Elation, how could she see suffering and not act? Perhaps the twists and turns of the process were entertaining, but the outcome had to be good.

After eating a piece of mango, Silver Wolf said, "Hmph, then cherish this one and only item properly~"

"Mm, I will." Kawaba Mutsumi held the Cartridge in both hands and looked solemnly at Silver Wolf.

Kawaba Yue's phone rang. She also checked the time. "There's still a while until noon. I'll go deal with something first."

Silver Wolf nodded, and Kawaba Mutsumi nodded as well to show that she understood.

Kawaba Yue answered the phone and went outside.

Now only Silver Wolf and Kawaba Mutsumi were left in the room again. Silver Wolf ate mangoes as she looked at Kawaba Mutsumi. "Want to ask me how to use it?"

"Mm."

"It's simple. Just think about it." Silver Wolf moved her fingers and retrieved part of the little Cartridge's data, displaying it before Kawaba Mutsumi.

"! A system?" Kawaba Mutsumi immediately found it familiar. This UI was the same as in the game.

Silver Wolf clapped her hands. "OK, done. I don't need to teach you what to do next, right?"

"Mm-hmm!" Kawaba Mutsumi hurriedly nodded in agreement and began studying the system Silver Wolf had just given her.

Seeing this, Silver Wolf stopped disturbing her and brought up her own [Roleplay Cartridge]:

[Silver Wolf]

[Cartridge LV60→70 (Roleplay Level Increase)]

[Hidden: Unknown Save Cartridge LV999]

[Load: Low]

[Status: Just stayed up all night. Of course, that has no effect whatsoever on a Path superhuman like you.]

[Protection: Forest Moon God, Phanes]

[Remaining Cartridge Time: 21s]

[May you remain weak forever]

It's been a while since I checked, and it's already gone up ten levels? Silver Wolf ate mangoes while inspecting the system.

And Aha, where the hell are you? At first, you were still playing that teacher meme, but now you're completely ignoring me? Are you looking down on me?

No matter how Silver Wolf thought about it, that initial "Aha" never appeared again. Perhaps the system had been designed that way from the start.

Seriously, other than you, Aha, who else could loan out the power of LV999? Oh... Elio.

Silver Wolf thought it over carefully again. But he wouldn't make someone roleplay as Silver Wolf, would he? Looks like Aha is still more likely.

And there's this entirely new setting, the Abyss. No matter how I look at it, it has nothing to do with Honkai: Star Rail. Anyway, let's assume this place hasn't been Trailblazed yet.
