Perseus' gaze was focused on the screen, and then he noticed that the livestream had begun. Comments were already flooding in about him being a chef and a gamer at the same time.

“You need to focus on the game, not the comments. Press the start button when I count to 3. Got it?"

Perseus and Jeremy nodded their heads in agreement.

[Since you chose the weakest model, we will have no choice but to play the game differently.]

“No need,” Perseus murmured confidently. “I already know where everything is.”

“Starting in three, two, one, now."

Both pressed start, and Perseus moved his character immediately. He aimed to find the map first.”

[The model Hiro could teleport.]

Perseus grinned. “Did you forget that Alia can mask her scent and hide herself from attack?”

“As long as I can stay away from Hiro and don't go into combat with him, I am safe.”

It was not like that matter; he would see the attack beforehand anyway.

Alia, the Perseus model, made her way towards where the map that led to her b

    Ethan was surprised by how quickly the game had ended. "What happened? Why did the game end so fast?" he asked.Perseus tilted his head to the side. "I won?" he said, raising his eyebrows. "Who's next?"Eris cleared her throat, getting everyone's attention. "The next person can go next; the second game will be starting soon."Perseus put his headphones back on and waited for the next contestants to get ready. Ethan, on the other hand, tried to convince himself that Perseus had just gotten lucky.Perseus had a smile on his face as he defeated the second contestant. He did the same for all the others until only Ethan was left.He raised his head to look at Ethan. "Are you going to play with me now?"Ethan's jaw tightened, and his legs felt like jelly with fear. "No, I didn't say I was going to play today. Remember, we have a duel."Perseus realized what was happening, and Ethan was terrified that he was going to lose. A grin spread across Perseus's face."I understand that you might be

    Perseus ran past Nick without sparing him a glance. Startled, Nick wanted to call out to Perseus, but then Eris ran past him too. “Perseus, wait up!” Eris yelled out. Perseus wasn't stopping; he got out of the cafe and glanced around for any means of transportation. “Is Sherry okay?” [A 30%] “Has she been caught?” [88%] “Is she in danger?” [100%] “How high is the danger stake?" [90%] Shit! Perseus cursed when he couldn't find anything that could be used as a means of transportation. He bit his lips. “What's her location?” [The location will be shown on the panel next to you.] [One point per minute.] Perseus glanced at the panel before he began running in the direction Sherry was going. Eris, who had just run out of the cafe, glanced around before running after him. “Iris, is there a way to speed up my movements?” Perseus demanded. [Yes, you can be lucky to get the speed booster if you draw the lottery.] Perseus was still running as he controlled the p

    “Like I said, she isn't my girlfriend,” Perseus replied, his eyes searching the place.[There is a stairway behind the building; you can get to the top of the building that way.]The man still couldn't believe what he was hearing. “Aren't you going to save her?”Perseus shook his head. “No, you can cut the rope and let her fall off. It has nothing to do with me.”The man's jaw dropped as Perseus turned away and headed off.[Are you sure of what you are doing?]Perseus wasn't; he was just trying to cause confusion or make the man let go of Sherry.“What's the danger rate now?”[70%][What are you going to do?]“You said that there was a stairway behind that building, right?"[Yes.]Perseus knew that even if he gave the recipe to them, they wouldn't let Sherry go, but delaying the given time was going to make them hold on for a while.He frowned as he tried to figure out what to do.“Let's use the stairs; with my current speed, I can get Sherry out of there.”The first thing Perseus did

    Perseus turned his head to look at her. It was Sherry; why did she slap him?“How could you say that to the killer?! You made me think that you were going to abandon me, and then you almost had yourself killed because of me!” Sherry bellowed.“I was so scared up there; I was so scared!” Her body trembled.Perseus' gaze fell. “I'm sorry, Sherry; it was all my fault.”“I thought you chose your recipe instead of mine, and I figured that I haven't been helpful to you at all.” She broke into sobs.“What are you talking about?” Perseus asked, his brows furrowed in confusion.She raised her head to look at him. “People keep useful people, don't they? If you are no longer useful, they will let you go like trash that is no longer needed.”“What?” Perseus blinked, utterly confused.“My grandpa stopped taking care of me because I am not supportive of the family. He stopped liking me and also cut off my allowance; he made sure that I was only used when he wanted to help Eris.” Her sob hardened. “

    “Mr. Damon, we lost sight of the kidnapper. It was like he wasn't even there.” Lexi walked up to them.Perseus's gaze turned to Lexi; she had her eyes on him with a worried look on her face. He already guessed that they wouldn't catch the man.“I know who he works for,” Perseus muttered. “However, I don't know if you will believe me.”Lexi wanted to tell him that she wouldn't work for him, but remembering that Mr. Logan had his back, she nodded.“I'm willing to help any way I can,” she replied.“Good,” Perseus muttered. He didn't want to tell her that it was Roman, but he knew the Sullivans might have ears at the station. “I will give my contact details to you; I will text you when you are alone about it.”Lexi's brow is furrowed. “Are you getting my contacts indirectly?”Perseus shook his head. “No, I am going to collect it because you need my help to get the killer.”Lexi poked him in the chest with her index finger, a frown appearing on her face. “It is the other day around; you ne

    [I understand that you wanted to save her because it was your fault!][They don't mean that you would give up your life to save her.] [Did you think that even if you saved her, the killer wouldn't come after her?!][Also, I have to punish you.]Perseus backed away. “For what?” He could accept the scolding, but he didn't want the punishment.[For giving up your life, I just came, and you are already thinking about dying!]“I wasn't, I swear."[How did you expect me to believe that?!][You also made me lose a lot of energy, and now I have to regain energy!]Perseus opened his lips to speak, but the electric current hit him. This time, it was harder than it had been at the station. By that time she let go of him, Perseus's eyes were blurry, and he was finding it difficult to stand.[This would teach you not to give up your life next time. Hmph!]It took several minutes for Perseus to regain his senses; by then, Iris was already sitting on his head with a glass of cappuccino.[How do you

    His high-pitched scream alerted Eris and Sherry, who were cooking in the kitchen. Eris was the first to turn off the gas and dash out of that kitchen; Sherry followed suit.At the same time, Perseus was about to open the door to get out when the ugly lady caught him by the arm.Perseus pulled his grip from the lady, and without thinking, he shoved her off of him, and that made her collide with the floor.[Your marriage is about to start.] Iris burst out laughing at Perseus's misfortune.[Don't tell me you are running from your bride! Hehe!][The punishment is for you to get married to her; that's the penalty for failing the mission.]Perseus raised his head to glare at Iris; she had a wide grin on her face as she watched him.“Baby, it's our wedding day.” The lady purred as she slowly stood up. “Don't you want to get married to me?"Perseus knew it was time for him to leave. He grabbed the doorknob and pulled the door open, but it wouldn't bulge.Eyes widening, he dashed for the bathr

    Perseus was already dressed when he walked down the stairs. His hands were tugged in his pants pocket as he made his way to the dining area.Sherry and Eris were already seated, his eyes drinking at the sight of all the food on the table.“Good morning.” The girls greeted him at the same time.Perseus smiled at them. “Good morning.”“Do you have an idea where Nathaniel works?” He asked as soon as he sat down.“I thought you already hired him,” Eris muttered. “I mean, you spoke to him yesterday, didn't you?”“I thought the same too," Sherry claimed.Perseus stared at the bandage that was on her wrists. “Does it still hurt?” He questioned.“What?” She peered at him.“Your injury.” He replied, averting his gaze.She looked stunned before a smile spread across her face. “I feel better; it doesn't hurt that much.”“So about Nat.” Eris chimed in as she dug into the plate of steaks in front of her. “I have an idea that he works for a famous restaurant, from what I have heard from my grandfat

    Two years later, Perseus was at the airport, having just landed back in his home country after traveling full-time for two years. He hadn’t heard from anyone during that time, as he’d been constantly changing his number while traveling. He had successfully visited 100 countries and would have continued if not for being called home by his aunt.“Perseus!” Sherry’s voice made him flinch as she called out to him.It had been two years since they last spoke. After the game, he had vanished, claiming he wanted to travel.[She waited for you, Iris noted. I doubt the others did.][He glanced at her. <

    Perseus smiled at the cheering crowd, then turned his gaze to the other side of the audience. His eyes widened in embarrassment when he spotted his aunt and Eriane, waving an old, embarrassing photo of him.His aunt was cheering louder than the teenage girls around her, almost as if she were a teenager herself.He wondered how she even knew about the game and its location since he hadn’t invited her. He was sure he’d be scolded later, but he didn’t mind. Shifting his attention away from her, Perseus walked to his gaming seat.As soon as they all sat down, Perseus glanced at the opposing team, just centimeters away. Sam, one of the opposing players, grinned at him, then gave Perseus the middle finger and mouthed, "Loser. We all know how terrible you are at gaming. Stop using your handsome face

    ‘What is my chance of winning now?’ Perseus questioned.Iris glanced at a panel, her eyes widening in shock. [79%][What am I seeing? You have upgraded to level 20 for discovering Forest's secret and finding a way to defeat him.] She squealed.[Is this really true?]A glint of relief slowly washed over Iris. There was hope that Perseus could finally defeat the man who had long wanted his life.[You can beat him now;] Iris claimed. [Just breathe properly.][His skills have been sealed with all of the points you have left. He won’t be able to use them against you anymore.] Iris announced.Perseus glanced at her, and a t

    Forest leaned in, his eyes cold and calculating. "This isn't just a fight. It's a battle of life and death. I often wonder why your parents gave the power I wanted most to you. I’ve waited for years to see if you’re worthy of the power you possess. But if this is all you have, then you’re not worthy and are just a piece of useless dirt occupying space."Before Perseus could react, Forest flung him across the room like a ragdoll. Perseus crashed to the ground, pain radiating through his body despite Iris’ efforts to heal him.[Perseus, we can’t keep this up much longer!] Iris warned. [You need to find a way to defeat him, or he’ll—]"I know," Perseus muttered, forcing himself to his feet. His vision blurred, but he refused to back down. "I know, Iris. But I’m not giving up. Not yet."Forest approached him slowly, almost leisurely. "So, what will it be, Perseus? Will you continue to fight and prove yourself? Or will you admit defeat and accept that you’re not ready for this?"“If you ad

    [You can! You idiot!] Iris yelled.Perseus snapped out of his thoughts and dodged the attack by moving to the side as quickly as he could. This time, he didn’t hold back his power and unleashed it to the maximum.[Good job.]The man’s eyes glinted with admiration. “Aren’t you a little thing?” he asked. “I get to see someone I can actually fight with without killing them first. This is wonderful. You’re amazing!”Perseus gritted his teeth. The way the man spoke, it was clear he was looking down on him. “What is your name?”The man was taken aback by the sudden question. “Why are you asking your killer their name?”“I just wanted to know the name of the person I’m going to kill before I kill them,” Perseus replied. “Is it that hard?”The man’s lips curled. “Fine. My name is Forest. Not a common name, I guess.”Forest? Perseus’ eyes darted to Iris. ‘Analyze him with the name.’[I am unable to analyze him.] Iris said. [I tried when he arrived, but it was impossible.]“Let’s continue with

    [Your death is near, host.] Iris said, appearing next to Perseus, her gaze fixed on Aera.[Why are you following her? Shouldn’t you be in the game?]Perseus glanced at Iris. ‘I should be in the game, but she insisted on treating my injuries first.’[You have to leave her and level up!] Iris cried. [I have no idea what’s happening, but the panel is blinking more furiously than before.][Your death is really imminent! You need to listen to me and run!]‘I’m not running,’ Perseus replied. ‘That man killed one of my family members and went on with his life. Now, he’s come after me, leaving Zeppelin out of the fight. If I run and he can’t find me, he’ll go after Zeppelin and kill him.’Iris’ eyes widened. [If you don’t run, there’s a high chance you’ll die.]‘I know that.’[Why are you with her then?]‘I can’t let Zeppelin face the same fate as our parents.’[It won’t take long for you to reach level 20.] Iris retorted.‘I have something he doesn't have.’[And what’s that?]‘I have you and

    Tossing in bed, Perseus looked away from Iris. “You don’t have to apologize, Iris. Even if I were to die, it wouldn’t be today anyway.”Iris scowled at him. [What did you just say?]“I said if I were to die, I wouldn’t—”His words were cut off as an electric current surged through him. The shock was so intense that he trembled all over, and when it stopped, steam was rising from his body.[That’s what you get for thinking about death, host!] Iris bellowed. [Do you know that both Lint and I will be gone if you die? Do you know how many people will be sad when you die?]Perseus flinched and slowly turned to lie on his back. Seeing the annoyed look on Iris’s face made him want to laugh.“I was only joking,” Perseus muttered. “I won’t die. I promise.”[You idiot!] Iris yelled, watching Perseus laugh. [If you die, I will kill you!]“How are you going to kill someone who’s already dead?”Two days later.“Are you ready?” Eris demanded, poking her head through the door to look at her teammat

    Ethan handed his phone to Perseus, who glanced at the picture. It was indeed him. They must have gotten it from security footage somewhere.Perseus nodded. “Alright.”“See you later,” Ethan said with a grin. “Don’t go anywhere alone.”“Okay.”Perseus stared at Iris. “I thought I told you to deactivate all of the cameras.”[I did,] she claimed. [I might have forgotten to turn the others off.]Perseus headed for the door since the game of the day would begin soon.[You were wearing a mask though. They wouldn’t be able to recognize you,] Iris said. [There’s nothing to worry about.]Upon reaching the general living room, Perseus met with the others, who were peering at him as if he had something on his face.“You were late, Perseus,” Liliana said.Liliana was standing in front of them with a woman with long lashes next to her. She grinned at Perseus, a smile crossing her face.“I had something to do,” Perseus replied. “I apologize for arriving late.”“No worries,” Liliana said. “Now that

    Perseus turned around to look at the man who had just spoken, ready to throw a punch if necessary.“Are you questioning me?” Cynthia demanded.From the look on her face, she seemed nothing like the woman she was with the leader. Perhaps seeing the man who had made her life a living hell taken by the police had given her some sort of confidence.“Nope,” he replied. “I was just worried if he would be able to lead the girls to his car. They are quite fierce.”“We know that,” Cynthia retorted. “Back to your job.”The men closed the door without any more questions, and Perseus glanced at her. He wanted to ask why she hadn’t let him use his fists but decided against it. In no time, the room was filled with women.Perseus gritted his teeth at the sight of them looking at him with terrified expressions. He wondered what all these women must have gone through to be that scared.“I will be letting them out now,” Perseus told Cynthia.“I will keep watch of the others,” Cynthia said before headin
