Chapter 93 (1/2)
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Could Zhao Youyue possibly do something that ruined this novel?
As mentioned earlier, there were three ways to exit a literary world. First, she could simply assign a character with superpowers to end the main protagonist’s life, causing that author’s work to crumble into pieces. She would then bear a consequence of bad luck in reality, and the consequences would be greater if she destroyed a literary work of higher popularity.
Zhao Youyue was done with the character setting of “Yu Shengfan” and would not modify it again to introduce any devastating superpower. Still, it would not be a hitch to kill the main protagonist. First off, she had become unable to differentiate between reality and game due to being intoxicated by excessive gaming. Then, she would stab Lin Feng in the back solely because he had refused to PK her for too long, thus she would just PK him in real life. Eventually “The Strongest King” became a novel which encourages people to appreciate life and stay away from game addiction. Not to mention, Professor Yang would strongly be recommended it on Weibo!
Everyone praised this Esports novel as it was full of positivity and emphasized the Core Socialist Values of Chinese!
This idea previously flashed across the mind of Zhao Youyue who had been restraining her own will to make troubles. She believed that it would be interesting if she made it to the news, but unfortunately, she would harm herself as well as the author. “Yu Shengfan” would forever remain in the hall of shame, and it would absolutely crush Rosemary’s reputation. As for the bad consequences that would befall her, it would not be as simple as the time she messed up “King of Superpower”…
It was actually the punishment of karma that arose from the resentment of readers. The readers’ love towards a character would transform to the willpower for Zhao Youyue to continue inheriting the character abilities, while their resentment would put a curse on her.
Despite her intention to cause a scene, Zhao Youyue was not that of an idiot. Thus, she had decided not to kill the main character, but instead allowed “Yu Shengfan” to follow him, so that she could grab more chances of appearing in the novel, hence increasing her popularity!
It was Zhao Youyue’s idea that “Yu Shengfan” had never bad mouthed Lin Feng. She wanted the readers to fantasize. Would it be that the rich lady “Yu Shengfan” was impressed by Lin Feng’s amazing skill and eventually fell in love with him?
Zhao Youyue answered that question with confidence——No.
But why would she do that?
She wanted the readers to be confused on purpose!
What is more, she wanted the readers to have a false impression of “Yu Shengfan” liking the main protagonist, but they were only in a relationship as loyal teammates. By shipping both of them together, wouldn’t the readers harbor a sense of commiseration for them in the end?
Would they be more sympathetic with “Yu Shengfan” this cute and innocent girl?
According to “Yu Shengfan’s” character setting, most people would take a pity on her, thus increasing her good impression toward readers. It would even encourage people to draw doujin-s of “shipping” Lin Feng and Yu Shengfan together, since one of the functions of doujin was to relieve some regrets from the main series.
This was the real purpose of Lady Zhao.
To display “Yu Shengfan’s” special treatment towards Lin Feng, other characters like Tang Yongkai were not so lucky. No matter men or women, she would always try her best to mock and humiliate them! Since Tang Yongkai was always cheerful, she definitely would bully him more…
Zhao Youyue actually wanted Lin Feng to be with another girl in the end so that “Yu Shengfan” would end up as a lonely girl character. Sigh, such disappointment, was it too much to bear?
Unfortunately, Rosemary had already decided that couples would not exist in this novel, even Zhao Youyue could sense the determination of “creator” while she was still in this world.
