After quickly introducing herself, Lin Wushuang turned her attention to the two people in front of her who were severely socially anxious.

Aidan, who was walking with her head down, felt a sinking feeling in her heart and quickly turned her eyes to look at the girl next to her.

Unexpectedly, the girl buried her head even deeper than he did, and the look in her eyes, hidden by her bangs, was hard to decipher; she clearly had no intention of responding.

Thinking about the awkward silence that might follow, Aidan mustered up her courage and began to introduce herself.

"My name is Aidan, and my ability is [ Electronic Fantasy ]..."

At this point, for some reason, the girl next to him, whose eyes were covered by bangs, blinked slightly and looked at Aidan with some surprise, but quickly looked away.

At that moment, Aidan felt incredibly awkward. She didn't know why, but introducing herself felt infinitely more awkward than speaking normally.

But since I'd already said half of it, I had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue.

"Generally speaking, he has quite a few abilities..."

Aidan roughly reviewed her abilities in her mind.

"It has both ranged and melee attacks, some healing abilities, and decent speed..."

"Hey! I remember you're at the Human Limit combat power, right?"

Suddenly, Lin Wushuang seemed to remember something and interjected.

Aidan was taken aback, then nodded like a chick pecking at rice.

"Wow, when I was your age I was just reaching ' Starlight ' and you've already reached the top! Your talent is amazing!"

Although she had expected it, Lin Wushuang still showed an expression of great envy.

If the girl next to her could lift her bangs, she would definitely see those wide-open eyes.

Aidan blushed a little at what was said, and after thinking for a while, she finally came up with a way to describe her abilities.

"It's basically like I can use all the abilities from a game called Undertale."

" Undertale?"

"Yes, that's right..."

"Never heard of it."

"..."

Aidan suddenly leaned closer and explained somewhat excitedly.

"Oh, it's a really popular single-player game, it's really fun, and the characters are also..."

Aidan snapped out of her daze, her blank eyes meeting Lin Wushuang's bewildered gaze.

The former's face immediately turned as red as a monkey's bottom, and he quickly moved away to create distance.

"Yes, yes, yes, I'm sorry!"

Aidan herself didn't know why, but she would become unusually excited when talking about her favorite games.

So much so that they got close to others without even realizing it.

After giving the other person a few strange looks, Lin Wushuang turned her gaze to the blindfolded girl who hadn't said a word the whole time.

"Okay, it's your turn."

Aidan could clearly feel the blindfolded girl's body tremble, and then she began to shake with fear.

It was at this moment that Aidan probably realized that the girl in front of her seemed to have an even more severe case of social anxiety than herself.

After all, Aidan could at least say a few words, while this girl seemed to have difficulty opening her mouth.

After trembling and agonizing for a long time, he finally seemed to have made up his mind and reached into his cotton coat to search inside.

Finally, they pulled one out...

Notice board?

But this sign is particularly strange; it looks like it was forcibly taken from a game world.

There are no lights or shadows; the entire thing is made up of pixels, making it look like a square billboard.

Lin Wushuang was alright, but Aidan's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets in shock.

At that moment, he seemed to understand what the girl's ability was.

The girl pointed the sign at the two of them, and lines of text made up of pixels appeared on it.

My name is Yao Di.

[The ability... is also [ Electronic Fantasy ], the ' Starlight ' realm.]

"Ah?"

Lin Wushuang stared at the notice board with a look of surprise, her gaze shifting back and forth between Aidan and Yao Di.

"Holy crap, you two aren't long-lost siblings, are you? Not only are you both introverted, but you even have the same abilities?"

In fact, it wasn't just Lin Wushuang who was like this; the two of them were also incredibly shocked after learning about each other's abilities.

Aidan was shocked because the other person's abilities were the same as her own.

Yao Di felt that since they were both [ Electronic Fantasy ], why was Aidan considered to be at the Human Limit combat power, while she was only at the ' Starlight ' level?

"That's great! You two have similar abilities, so you can work together effectively."

As soon as Lin Wushuang said that, Aidan scratched his head and said somewhat awkwardly.

"Our abilities are probably... quite different..."

Yao Di nodded slightly twice, almost imperceptibly.

"Ah, why?" Lin Wushuang asked, puzzled.

Aidan didn't speak, but glanced at Yao Di, "May I ask what game your ability is...?"

[ Minecraft ]

"Oh, I know this game. I started playing it because Ye Linwan likes to play it."

Lin Wushuang continued talking to herself, while Aidan simply nodded and remained silent.

The air seemed to freeze in the blink of an eye, thick with awkwardness.

His awkward aura, coupled with the cold wind, made Lin Wushuang shiver.

"Tsk, no, why do I find it so difficult to talk to you guys?"

Lin Wushuang's expression was strange.

"Why does the atmosphere get so awkward when we're not talking?"

Actually, you can't blame these two people; they're both socially awkward.

They have difficulty even connecting topics, how could they possibly have a normal conversation?

Aidan and Yao Di, whose faces were already flushed from the awkward atmosphere, blushed even more because of Lin Wushuang's words.

Their faces flushed red at a visible speed; anyone who didn't know better would have thought they were two young people experiencing their first love.

"Alright, alright, let's not talk about it anymore, let's get going."

Lin Wushuang really didn't have the energy to continue chatting with these two people who had almost zero social skills, so she hugged her hand warmer and continued on her way.

Aidan and the other person breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, glanced at each other, and then quickly looked away, lowering their heads and walking forward.

However, Yao Di kept glancing at Aidan from time to time along the way, clearly showing some interest in this boy who shared similar abilities, personality, and social anxiety with her.

However, Aidan was completely unaware of all this.

After all, her eyes were completely covered by her bangs, so Aidan couldn't see her emotions through them.

The three of them continued walking in silence and awkwardness, and before they knew it, they had left the town and were in a desolate place.

The heavy snowfall continued, gradually forming white 'hats' above the three people's heads.

Even the ground beneath our feet was covered with a thick white carpet.

With each step, a "squeak-squeak" sound was produced as the ice and snow were squeezed.

Aidan was walking at the front, suddenly stopped, looked around, and took out a map from his pocket.

After carefully checking several times, he spoke to the people behind him.

We've probably arrived.
