2025-03-27 23:11:32Next Day,
"Ring...Ring...!" "Who is it so early in the morning?" Devansh just came out of the shower, wearing a towel, showing off his upper body, which had yet to develop. "Hmm... Goddess Ratna? What does she want?" He looked at his phone, seeing messages from Kiran Ratna. "Devansh: What's up, Miss Ratna? You remember me so early in the morning!" Devansh opened ChatWise and typed in their private chat. A reply came immediately. "Kiran: Well, I just wanted to express my gratitude to you for what you did yesterday. So, are you free today?" Looking at the message, he smiled, seeing that she wasn't asking why he did that or where he got the money from. 'How thoughtful of her, not poking for details,' Devansh thought in his head. "Devansh: Well, I am free. It's not like we have any classes today." "Kiran: Great! Then let's meet at MoonHeart Square an hour later! "Devansh: Ohh... Alright." "What exactly is this lady planning? But money sure is a wonderful thing. Just before yesterday, I was a nobody to a person like Kiran Ratna, and now she is even inviting me herself for a date!" Devansh muttered under his breath, laughing at the irony of his past situation. "Hey, Brother Devansh! What's going on? Look at the university forum! Is this shit true? But why haven’t we heard anything from you?" Just then, his roommates came back after their morning exercise and asked in a bewildered tone while showing their phones in his face. "Who started this joke? Can't you see someone is trying to make a fool of me? How can that be true? You know me well!" Devansh looked at the forum before glancing at his roommates' faces, which had an 'explain it to us' expression, before shaking his head and denying any claim. 'Who is trying to ruin my peaceful time at the university? Even though it's half true, I really am poor, not rich at all,' Devansh thought with an amused smile before shaking his head, remembering what kind of rumors had spread in the forum. One was even more absurd, saying he was the son of a billionaire who got tired of people looking at him with differential attitudes and judgmental eyes, so he yearned for a peaceful, quiet life. That's why he was living the life of a poor person at MariaGold University of Technology while hiding his rich background. Another rumor claimed that the reason he didn’t tell Aranya Sen about his tycoon background was that he wanted to find true love and not someone interested in his wealth. Devansh wondered if the person spreading these rumors was a fan of urban legend novels—each rumor was more absurd than the previous one. "Ohhh... so it's fake rumors! That’s why we thought—how could our Brother Devansh not tell us about this when we live in the same room?" His roommates nodded in understanding as they walked back to their beds before going to shower, leaving Devansh shaking his head at their idiotic thoughts. "Right, I need to reach MoonHeart Square," Devansh looked at the time and searched for a decent set of clothes before donning them and walking out of his dorm. Half an hour later, he arrived at the famous city square. In the middle of the intersection stood a sculpture adorned with milky-white glimmering crystal—a lady holding a half-heart-shaped moon. "No matter how many times I see this sculpture, it never gets old. Always shining brightly like a ray of hope." Devansh's vision rested on the MoonHeart Lady sculpture, admiration clear in his eyes. "Hey, lad... are you here to pick someone up?" Just then, a voice brought him back from his thoughts, and he frowned as he looked at the arrogant-looking middle-aged man standing beside his luxurious car. "An A8udi, not bad, Uncle. You really know how to choose a car; it does suit your personality. By the way, are you also waiting for someone?" Devansh recognized the car and commented sarcastically. The middle-aged man, however, seemed to take it as a compliment. "Hehe... Not just anyone can afford this beauty. And yeah, I’m waiting for my beautiful lady." The middle-aged man replied with a smug expression. Devansh was on his cheap bike, which he usually rode, so the middle-aged man was looking down on him. But Devansh didn’t take it to heart, merely giving him a cold smile as he waited for Kiran Ratna. And he didn’t have to wait long. "Devansh, over here!" Devansh heard the call, turned towards the source, and smiled, seeing Kiran Ratna walking in his direction from the other side of the intersection. But before he could move towards her, the uncle standing beside him stopped him. "Wait... wait... wait. Are you dreaming, lad? You can’t even afford a piece of the shoes she’s wearing, so don’t bother dreaming that you can date such a goddess." The middle-aged uncle spoke in cold, disdainful words, but they got stuck in his throat the next second. "Hey... what are you standing there for? Let’s go!" Kiran Ratna had already arrived by the time the middle-aged uncle was done spouting crap. Devansh just shook his head before gesturing for Kiran Ratna to sit on his bike. "Goodbye, Uncle. And don’t worry about me... worry about yourself!" Devansh gave him the middle finger with a smile and rode off on his old bike with Kiran Ratna sitting behind him. "Wha... What the hell...!" The arrogant uncle's mouth hung open as he saw a pauper driving a cheap bike take a goddess for a ride. Feeling a loud smack on his face, he couldn't help but fall down on his butt. "Damn... my heart can't take it." Feeling the pain from his wounded pride, he took out his phone to make a call. "Baby... when are you coming? I am still waiting for you at MoonHeart Square." The middle-aged man spoke into the phone in a flattering tone. If Devansh had seen him like this, he would have said, 'As expected, he is a slave.' "What... you haven’t left yet? Is your brain made of brick that it couldn’t take the hint? Get lost! We are done! Don’t meet me ever again." An even more haughty and arrogant voice came from the other side of the call, making the middle-aged man's expression turn sour and hurt. "Babe... Please... don’t do this to me...!" The middle-aged man almost cried out as he tried to plead, but the call went dead. The people watching scoffed at him, saying, 'Look at him! He was giving advice to someone else when he himself is a loser.' "What’s the 4ucking use of this money?!" The middle-aged man screamed in anger and sadness, startling a few strangers passing by.

"So, where do you want to go?" Devansh asked as he drove his bike slowly. "Anywhere you want to go, as long as it's a good place," Kiran Ratna replied, her tone a little weird, though Devansh couldn't put his finger on why. 'Hmm... his personality is very attentive, and his back feels protective. It gives me the feeling that I am very safe with him,' Kiran Ratna's thoughts ran wild in her head as she sniffed his unique fragrance, coming from Devansh's hormones, which had been tempered a little by the System. 'Is the rumor really true?' Kiran Ratna's thoughts started to wander as she remembered the rumors floating around in the university forum. 'Is he really a rich young master, experiencing an ordinary person's life?' Kiran was starting to believe the rumor but was still doubtful about it, which was why she planned to confirm it during their little date today. "Alright... I know a place you might like!" Devansh thought for a bit before his eyes lit up as he remembered somet

Then how about this... now you should fuck off before I lose my patience." Ashen Graves stood in front of Devansh, grabbed his collar, and threw another bundle of notes in his face while sneering at him. "Ohh... wow, you sure are rich... throwing money around. Too bad this isn't enough to let you have my table." Devansh grinned at him and spoke in a sarcastic tone. Even though he was being held by the collar, he didn't mind it and remained very calm about it."You really are pissing me off...!" Ashen Graves hardened his expression as he clenched his fists while tightening his hold on his collar. "And you are making me mad...!" Kiran Ratna's eyes were a

Meanwhile, the last one present in the room sat lifelessly, staring at his phone, his expression frozen. He had just heard something shocking and heartbreaking."What did you say, Aranya...? I... I didn't hear it correctly...!" the boy asked in a trembling voice, his hand shaking as he held the phone to his ear. "I said, Devansh, let's break up!" A rasping, angry voice came from the other side, making Devansh lose all color from his face. "Wait... wait... wait... what do you mean, 'let's break up'? What did I do...? Please, tell me if I made any mistakes, I’ll correct them. Please don’t joke with me!" Devansh's words tumbled out in a stuttered

I don't want my boyfriend to misunderstand me," Aranya said in a dismissive tone before she moved toward Ashen Graves' car. "But... how can you even think of getting back with this bastard?!" Devansh's voice quivered, unable to understand why Aranya would go back to a man like Ashen Graves, who could cheat on her without a second thought. "Devansh, don't force me to slap you. How dare you slander my boyfriend? He already apologized for that mistake, which wasn’t his to begin with. It was that bitch who seduced my boyfriend," Aranya said in a cold tone as she turned back to him, making Devansh look at her with wide eyes. "You... you—are you seriously going to forgive him with a single apology and believe that this bastard won’t cheat on you again?!" Devansh couldn't believe what he was hearing. She

"Damn... What's wrong with you...!" Devansh shouted back, almost getting drenched by the water the crazy girl splashed over him. He looked at the girl standing in front of him, holding an empty white bottle in her hand, her sharp, cold stare fixed on him. Her hair, silky and well-maintained, fell in graceful waves around her shoulders, framing her face beautifully. She had a well-balanced figure—neither too slim nor too curvy—with a graceful way of carrying herself. While she wasn’t breathtakingly gorgeous, there was an undeniable charm in her warmth and lively energy, making her slightly more attractive than his ex, Aranya, in a subtle yet noticeable way.[Name: Anaya Mira[Height: 164 Cm[Weight: 48 Kg[Appearance: 7.5/10 [Affection Level Towards Host: -40]As he was staring at her, a screen popped up in front of her, making him blink a little.

"Alright... then, Store Manager, I want the most expensive snack you have in your store. Get me enough so that all the friends present here can have one each!" Anaya Mira smiled as she spoke to the old shopkeeper, gesturing toward a particular snack. 'Let's see how you can flaunt in front of me, daring to flirt with me when you don't have a dime in your pockets,' Anaya Mira thought as she glanced back at Devansh after placing her order with the Store Manager. "Whoa... damn, Beauty Anaya Mira is sure ruthless. Hehehe... that guy is going to cough up blood for acting high and mighty, trying to flaunt in front of her," a man who was already annoyed with Devansh for getting Anaya Mira's attention scowled coldly and laughed upon hearing her order. "Who said he could flirt with her? Doesn't he know when to back down?" another jealous student commented coldly. While others were badmouthing him, Devansh paid them no heed and took out his Black Diamond Card, swiping it without hesitati

"Huh... Devansh Magnus, what are you doing here?" Aranya Sen also turned to him as she recognized him upon hearing a familiar tone. She asked with widened eyes and a skeptical look on her face. "Hmm... who is this, your ex-girlfriend? Why does she look like she just encountered the plague... Oops, sorry... sorry, I didn’t mean to blurt it out for you!" Anaya Mira, seeing the chance to annoy him, blurted out playfully while watching Devansh and Aranya Sen's reactions toward each other. "Plague, huh...!" Devansh did feel a crack in his heart, and his smile faded upon hearing her comment. 'What’s this loser doing here? Is he trying to cause me trouble by following me around? Damn it... I shouldn’t have gone easy on him!' Aranya coldly snorted as she thought, seeing Devansh not replying and just staring at her. "What... are you still following me? Let me make it clear for you. We are done, and I am already with Young Master Ashen, so don’t you dare cause trouble for me!" Aranya sa

As Devansh was busy with his thought process, meanwhile, the crowd was heating up, seeing the unexpected outcome between the rich-looking man and a pauper. "So, the so-called pauper was actually a second-generation hidden tycoon, while the one pretending to be rich turned out to be a broke fool who can't even buy his girlfriend a gift." Hushed whispers flew around the shop among the people present. "Damn, Syri! Good thing you took the chief’s advice seriously, or who knows what kind of disaster would’ve happened today because of some wannabe rich kid who can’t even afford a Marilyn Meri brand." Another saleslady whispered to her friend while covering her mouth with her hand. "Yeah, I never thought things would turn out this way. Phew... Luckily, I didn’t judge him by his appearance, or I would’ve dug my own grave!" The saleslady nodded back, glancing towards Devansh and patting her chest in relief as she looked back at her friend. "Humph... It's because of these pretentious fo

"BeautyLove_009: Yeah... I really want to see the art. With how focused Goddess was, the art should be amazing." There were still some genuine admirers supporting Kiran Ratna as she was done with the final touches."ModernConstructedArts: Thank you for having some confidence in me. I am sure you won’t be disappointed for waiting to see how the final art turned out to be." Kiran Ratna put down the tools before she thanked her supporters and smiled at their genuine comments.

The roommates of Devansh gritted their teeth in anger, seeing the malicious comments on their Goddess's channel."They won’t back down unless someone teaches them a lesson. They really are underestimating her charm." Devansh smirked coldly, seeing the blind fans of Xiaomai trash-talking on Kiran Ratna's channel."Hmmn... who the hell is this!"

Meeting Ayush, he got reminded once again about his heartache and his past struggles. He really didn't want to experience it again; those feelings weren't very good for his health. "Wait... wait... no, you can't." Anaya panicked hearing Devansh's words, and the emotion which she didn't know existed inside her showed on her face. Her eyes became slightly red and moist. "Anaya... we are done. Go home and think it through." Devansh said in a flat tone before shaking her hands off him and left her standing there in a daze. "No... no, Devansh... wait... listen to me... I... I was...!" By the time she came back to her senses, Devansh was already gone. He was nowhere to be seen. She kept shouting mindlessly before her tears streaked down from her already red, moist eyes. "I think I already fell for you, Devansh. I am sorry that I wasn't able to express myself clearly!" Anaya wiped her eyes, feeling the pain in her heart as she muttered to herself, before in a daze, she walked back to

"Hey... look at the brave guy, acting so smug," one of the men pointed at the card Devansh was holding and spoke to his friends. "Alright... let me show you why you should never look down on a simple man who doesn't like to show off!" Anaya smiled coldly at the men making fun of Devansh before she took the Black Diamond Card and went to the sommelier’s side. "Hey... if that loser can pay for the wine bottles, then I will drink ten such bottles in one breath!" The man who was the first to flirt with Anaya spoke in annoyance and a cold tone as he looked at Anaya's hand. "Hey... hey, are you sure?" Devansh looked at him in a playful tone. "Damn... this fucker. Fine... I am a man of my word. Go ahead, show us how you're going to embarrass yourself." The young man clenched his teeth as he replied. "Hehe... we will see who is going to embarrass themselves." Devansh grinned as he gestured for Anaya to proceed with the transaction. Anaya swiped the card and input the code before t
13. EchoBar
"The painting shows a boat sinking in the vast ocean, which could symbolize struggle, loss, or something coming to an end. The ocean represents powerful forces like fate, emotions, or challenges, while the boat stands for human efforts or dreams," Anaya Mira tried to explain in simple words so Devansh could make sense of it. "Okay... okay, I get it. It's a true work of art: a floundering disaster floating in a sea of failure. Just like me, a while back!" Devansh stopped Anaya from explaining more as he related to what the artist of this painting wanted to say. It clearly resonated with his life before he met the System. "Huh... what do you mean...?" Anaya Mira asked with a confused expression, hearing Devansh's last words. "It's nothing... by the way, you really know a lot about these arts!" Devansh shrugged and changed the topic by complimenting her. "Hehe... it's just a little knowledge, not too impressive at all." Anaya smiled happily while trying to look like she didn’t ca

"Damn it... this guy is really testing my patience, forcing me to take action. Don't stop me! Today, I will flatten this bastard!" The blonde Young Master became incensed upon hearing Devansh's savage reply and almost jumped at him before he was caught by his lackeys. They looked around and saw that others were also present. Not wanting to get into trouble with the professor, they stopped their troublemaker Young Master before he really caused a scene."Young Master, calm down." the first lackey said in the blonde's ear, in a hushed tone."Yes, you need to calm down and look around; if you cause trouble like last time, you might be suspended this time." the second lackey reminded the Blonde Young Master of something, which immediately made him calm down."Humph... I am letting him go today, but I won't let him get away after humiliating me!" the Blonde Young Master huffed, glaring at Devansh before he shrugged off his lackeys' hold.Devansh ignored the stuck-up loser and looked at h
