Chapter 59: Ancient Lineage (1/2)

It had been three days ever since Venomous' finding.

She had done great work by finding the clue to the Ice Tomb, but gathering 10000 from Yetis would take some time. Michu had been worried about something recently too and he often dazed while looking at Venomous.

She said, ”What do you need from me?” In the beginning, she couldn't help but scream inwardly at how cute her monke was. But too much sugar would kill even the snake, so she asked later on.

Also, it wasn't wise to keep the monke's head clouded with worry.

”So final exams are coming and I am bad at school... I thought that you could help me.” Michu confessed his thoughts. At first, he looked at Yumi with wide eyes, but then lowered to not look into her face. It was kinda embarrassing for him to ask about it as it would mean the meeting in real life.

It was impossible to teach this stuff in-game as Michu couldn't bring his student's book!

Venomous realized it and fear struck her face, ”That's...” The deepest worry was that her real appearance looked nowhere close to her in-game. It was solely because she neglected her health.

However, Yumi glanced at Sandra and her heart clenched, ”Well... We can meet.” Butterflies also teemed her stomach. She looked a little uncertain, making Michu wave his hands before her eyes.

”No need to force yourself! I will be with you in-game no matter what, Yumi!” He misunderstood a little, but Michu knew that he'd asked for too much. A lot had happened between them, but it was all in-game nonetheless. Meeting in real life would be too much and he also wouldn't opt for it if someone other than her asked him for it. It was because Michu was a tad different in real life and he often would get overwhelmed due to his poor origins.

Just the fact that his clothes stood out and reeked off with poverty would make others look down on him.

So other than Yumi, Michu would also refuse gently if some other friends asked him for a real-life meeting.

Still, the school wasn't forgiving!

”Your studies are important... Other than the game, I have a lot of free time.” Yumi would feel guilty if Michu failed the school and ended up repeating the class. He had asked her nicely for help and he was probably too poor to get help from a tutor.

She never had problems with school and her studies were further than her peers, so Michu's problems shouldn't be a problem for her, ”That's why... You can meet me in real life. We have the same time zone, but where do you live?”

”Are you sure?” Michu scratched his hair as he asked again. To his words, Venomous nodded. She never met someone like Michu and he wasn't a person who would comment on her appearance. He'd already done enough that she promised 'one close favor' too. Honestly, the more she thought, the less worried Yumi became.

”That would take you at least six hours by foot...” After Michu shared where he lived, Venomous estimated that it would take at least six hours if not more by reaching her apartment!

Michu wouldn't be able to use the bus or order a taxi. He also would rather save money for food, so while Venomous wasn't aware of that, she didn't say anything about using those services.

Of course, the monke wasn't let down! He smiled, ”Oh, it would mean one day off from the game! I will return in the evening by then...” The monke inferred.

”You never know what people you meet at night. Just sleep in my apartment for one night. I have two VR capsules anyway.” Yumi's words shocked Michu!

”Do you live with someone?” Why would she have two capsules?
