      Chapter 31 Cover
      by Gideon — Chapter 31: The Puppet Master – 7 With a work of art like yours, do you really have no idea whether it would amaze anyone? The only people who could possibly be impressed by something like this would have to be psychopaths, right? Storm really wanted to express his honest thoughts with complete sincerity. However... Under the relentless pressure of his survival instincts, Storm made a tremendous effort to convince himself that yes, that was right. He was a psychopath! "Perfect." Sincere…

      Chapter 30 Cover
      by Gideon — Chapter 30: The Puppet Master – 6 The final syllable seemed to linger faintly on "Qing Guizhu's" tongue... Sensing the danger, Tu Jin didn't hesitate for even a moment. A golden gemstone appeared out of thin air between his fingers. With a gentle pinch, it quickly disintegrated into nothingness. At the same time, golden afterimages appeared so quickly that even Storm couldn't see where they had come from or what they were made of. They all shot toward "Qing Guizhu" in a deadly assault— Yet…

      Chapter 29 Cover
      by Gideon — Chapter 29: The Puppet Master – 5 For the first time in his life, Tu Jin was so furious that he couldn't even get a word out. His hands trembled more violently than those of an elderly person in their eighties or nineties. Yet despite shaking so badly, he still tried to raise one hand and point at the little puppet, desperately hoping to awaken her sense of guilt. Unfortunately... The little puppet clearly didn't possess such a thing as a conscience, nor did she understand what Tu Jin was actually…

      by Gideon — Chapter 28: The Puppet Master – 4 "Ah la la, little one, how can you help someone else cheat like that...?" Seeing that his disguise had been exposed right from the beginning, "Qing Guizhu" raised a hand and gently tapped his cheek, looking somewhat troubled under Tu Jin's wary gaze. His refined, aristocratic demeanor crumbled almost instantly. He tilted his head to the side. Although his tone sounded irritated, his eyes held a smile, along with an indescribable hint of wickedness. "Cheating…

      Chapter 27 Cover
      by Gideon — Chapter 27: The Puppet Master – 3 Considering how the little puppet he had been licking had praised his appearance, Storm, being a man himself and well aware of the less-than-virtuous nature of men, didn't dare look in Night Jiujui's direction again. Even later, while the two were eating and he was cleaning the room, he kept his head down, afraid that the jealous lapdog might give him trouble. Not that he was looking, but the sticky-sweet conversation at the dining table still found its way into…

      Chapter 26 Cover
      by Gideon — Chapter 26: The Master of Puppetry – 2 To accommodate the little Doll, who didn't want to leave the room—and because Tu Jin himself had no desire to take her outside and risk running into Qing Guizhu—he naturally opted for room service. The only people qualified to work as servers on the third floor were the seven A+ Rank Players. Therefore, once the restaurant's serving hours had ended, several Players who were following the head chef's orders by crouching in the kitchen and peeling the skin…

      Chapter 24 Cover
      by Gideon — Chapter 24: The Master of Puppetry After thoughtfully glancing at her Puppet Bestowal and Silk Thread Manipulation skills, which could no longer be upgraded using points, Ye Jiujiu didn't dwell on them too much. Instead, she focused most of her attention on her now fully upgraded skill, Paint and Powder. It could be said that upgrading Puppet Bestowal and Silk Thread Manipulation to Lv. 9 had cost her only a certain number of points combined. After deducting the points spent on upgrading her…

      by Gideon — Chapter 25: The Master of Puppetry – 1 Study. Just as Tu Jin finished handling the last document and put the cap back on his pen— “Click—” A soft sound came from the door as someone gently pushed it open from the outside. Tu Jin had already guessed that the little Doll was waiting outside. He raised his eyes with an exasperated look, but before the smile could form on his face, his expression froze. Because… Something was clearly wrong with the little Doll. She was…

      Chapter 23 Cover
      by Gideon — Chapter 23: The Doll Is Delicate and Incapable of Taking Care of Herself (16) Ye Jiujiu considered herself a fairly reasonable person. She wasn't some kind of demon, after all. Since Tu Jin had admitted his mistake so promptly... "Then what exactly did you do wrong?" She raised her eyes, looking utterly aggrieved. What had he done wrong? Hearing her question, Tu Jin genuinely took a moment to reflect on himself. In his opinion, his greatest mistake so far had been failing to cut his…

      by Gideon — Chapter 22: The Doll Is Delicate and Incapable of Taking Care of Herself (15) You want points to buy stuff? Do I look like the stuff you want to buy? If not, would you like me to change my name to Stuff right here and now? The strange affection that had just begun to stir in Tu Jin's heart vanished in an instant, crumbling away like a mountain collapsing. Brought back to reality in a single second, Tu Jin stared expressionlessly at the little doll gazing at him with deep affection. Then he…
