Chapter 63

It was the alliance territory GoodLuck swept and polished every day, where BBQ worked hard farming, and where the other alliance members each decorated the place charmingly with props they had bought.

Mo Yeonhoo had not wanted to see it ruined, so he had not cared about money or anything else. He had spent without even knowing how much he was burning through.

At Mo Yeonhoo’s words, Miu quietly looked at him. Soon, Miu’s character, dressed in tactical gear, slowly rose from where he sat and brushed off his hands.

(CH03) Miu: You really are a weird person

Mo Yeonhoo awkwardly swept back his hair. The truth was, he had almost forgotten that he had used those Instant Completion Tickets at all.

Miu seemed to have become certain 0momo0 was not a spy after seeing that, but....

No, then.

Mo Yeonhoo stopped short.

Why didn’t he say anything back then?

Come to think of it, hadn’t it been right after the Siege War that Miu had driven him into a corner like crazy, accusing him of being a spy? Of course, he knew now that had been a smokescreen, but still!

(CH03) 0momo0: But Miu!! Hypothetically

(CH03) 0momo0: If I hadn’t noticed this time and just stayed quiet

(CH03) 0momo0: Were you gonna use me~~ just enough without telling me and then throw me away;;???

...No way.

(CH03) Miu: lolol

(CH03) Miu: You’re sharper than you look

That was practically an admission.

(CH03) 0momo0: Waaah;;;;;;

So it was true?

(CH03) Miu: I was going to quietly finish the work, give you the gem, and wrap it up

(CH03) 0momo0: What??

(CH03) 0momo0: What the heck????

(CH03) Miu: Well.. if I thought I’d gone too far, I probably would’ve given you 2 or 3 more gems

(CH03) Miu: From your perspective, that might’ve been more profitable

(CH03) 0momo0: Excuse me??????

(CH03) Miu: lolololol

Miu laughed.

Really, as if it was nothing at all, with a perfectly calm tone!

(CH03) 0momo0: Wow;; Work??? Once it was done??????

(CH03) 0momo0: Huh???? You were gonna tell me after it was over???

(CH03) Miu: I apologized

(CH03) Miu: gave you quite a bit of money

(CH03) Miu: and explained the reason in detail..

(CH03) Miu: Isn’t that everything?

Mo Yeonhoo was dumbfounded by his shameless attitude. Miu, however, seemed unable to understand him instead.

(CH03) 0momo0: Wow;;;

(CH03) Miu: ??What

(CH03) Miu: Now that you’ve heard it, do you feel like you missed out?

(CH03) Miu: If it’s not enough, should I give you more gems?

(CH03) 0momo0: Wow!!!!!!!;;;

...This was legendary unlikable behavior!!

(CH03) 0momo0: No, whatever else!!! That means I would’ve kept getting hit and cursed at without even knowing why!!!

(CH03) Miu: Right?

(CH03) 0momo0: What do you mean right!!!!

(CH03) 0momo0: Then I’d be pitiful!!!

(CH03) Miu: Pitiful??

(CH03) 0momo0: Yes!!! I’d keep getting accused of being the spy and just get cursed at by you!!! And then I would’ve left the alliance!!

(CH03) 0momo0: Honestly, do you know how wronged I felt being framed as the spy!!

(CH03) 0momo0: I couldn’t even sleep!!!

(CH03) Miu: Is that such a big problem

(CH03) Miu: You get falsely accused once and walk away with pay for the work

My baby rabbit... r-right?

Mo Yeonhoo’s jaw dropped in disbelief.

(CH03) 0momo0: I don’t wanna take it

(CH03) Miu: ?

Miu seemed unable to understand, but Mo Yeonhoo ignored the trade request that came flying in again.

(CH03) Miu: Why??

(CH03) Miu: If you’re feeling burdened, it’s fine

(CH03) Miu: Just take it

(CH03) 0momo0: I was kinda annoyed, yeah..!

(CH03) 0momo0: But I don’t wanna take it

(CH03) Miu: I’m asking why?

(CH03) Miu: It’s payment for getting dragged into this and having things become tiring and annoying, so just take it comfortably;

At Miu’s urging, Mo Yeonhoo was the one who became flustered instead.

Of course he understood Miu’s position. He must mean to compensate him in advance because Mo Yeonhoo had taken damage because of him, and because he would need Mo Yeonhoo’s help from now on.

(CH03) 0momo0: I’m not tired from getting dragged into this, and nothing’s gonna be annoying. I can just help

(CH03) Miu: Why?

But Mo Yeonhoo had no reason to accept this.

(CH03) 0momo0: We’re in the same alliance

Because he was also part of <47>. It was true that he had joined because he was following Miyoung, but if they were looking for the spy to save <47> as members of <47>, then, well.

(CH03) 0momo0: This is just obvious, isn’t it?;

He had been a little hurt all this time, but it was still something he could definitely help with. So when he rejected the mail acceptance and typed that, Miu fell silent for a moment.

As Mo Yeonhoo stared blankly, Miu sent another trade request.

(CH03) Miu: Take it

Ding. His mailbox lit up again. It was obvious even without checking.

(CH03) Miu: I would’ve given it to any other alliance member too

(CH03) Miu: And everyone else would’ve happily taken it

He had sent another gem!

(CH03) 0momo0: No, I said I’m not taking it????

This time, Mo Yeonhoo did not even press the mail. He immediately deleted it. Unopened mail was returned at once.

(CH03) Miu: I said take it

(CH03) 0momo0: I’m not taking it!

(CH03) Miu: Take it

(CH03) 0momo0: I won’t!

(CH03) Miu: take it ㄱㄱ

(CH03) 0momo0: ㄴㄴㄴ!

(CH03) Miu: ㄱ

(CH03) 0momo0: ㄴ!!

Trade declined, confirm, declined, confirm, declined, confirm....

Neither of them showed any sign of backing down. It seemed they would keep doing this until Mo Yeonhoo accepted. After they spent quite a while wrestling back and forth like that, Miu finally got irritated.

(CH03) Miu: Are you stupid?

(CH03) Miu: Why are you refusing something other people would happily run to take?

(CH03) Miu: Don’t you know that makes you lose out in life instead?

(CH03) Miu: Take it when I’m giving it to you, would you?

Mo Yeonhoo was impressed.

How can everything he says be that rude...!

At the same time, it was ridiculous.

(CH03) 0momo0: Miu, you’re not even sorry anyway!!!

(CH03) 0momo0: You’re giving it to me so you can use me well from now on;;!!!

(CH03) Miu: Yes

See!

(CH03) 0momo0: Ah, that’s why I’m saying I don’t need it!

(CH03) 0momo0: I’m telling you I’ll help you just fine even if I don’t take it???

(CH03) Miu: ?How do you help someone without taking things like this?

(CH03) Miu: Everyone takes things and lives that way

(CH03) Miu: You

(CH03) Miu: really aren’t the spy, are you?

“Wow!!!”

(CH03) 0momo0: mnㅇlaㅁnㅇmㅇ

He was suspicious of him because he would not take the gem?

Ms. Miyoung... has serious distrust of people and is really rigid!

When Mo Yeonhoo had seen him in person, Miu had been kind and full of affection, so he had not seemed like that at all. But in-game, he seemed to trust absolutely no one and drew harder lines than anybody else.

(CH03) Miu: Why aren’t you answering

(CH03) 0momo0: Are you gonna call me a spy again if I answer???!!?!? You said I suck at harvesting!!!

(CH03) Miu: That

(CH03) Miu: wasn’t on the level of sucking

He was honest even now! How could he do this! How could he get under Mo Yeonhoo’s skin this badly!

(CH03) 0momo0: hI’m h...

(CH03) 0momo0: going to bring ㅁsomething sweet hehe

He could not control his mind at all and felt like he needed to eat something.

(CH03) Miu: ?

(CH03) Miu: Yeah whatever

Of course, until the very end, his baby rabbit flipped his insides upside down by sending question marks as if he could not understand....

Mo Yeonhoo quickly went out to the living room to find something sweet.

There’s chocolate cake!

He brought over cake he had left from before, along with milk, and sat back down in front of the computer. After drinking a sip of milk, he scooped up a big bite of chocolate cake, and his head felt like it cooled a little.

Ah, I got too worked up....

This was not something to get this heated over, but Miu’s reaction had been so unexpected that he had gotten flustered and gone overboard without realizing it.

Feeling awkward that he had blown up at someone he needed to look good in front of, he quietly moved his character. But even when 0momo0 moved, Miu remained still. As if he had also stepped away, he was quiet. Mo Yeonhoo left his character alone again and let out a deep sigh.

He really is strange. In person, he’s so full of love and even treats me, just a customer, incredibly well. So why is he like this in-game? Is this that... split personality thing?

As he was thinking that, he suddenly felt like looking at the Nova Café account again. So he picked up his phone, which he had set face-down, and was startled the moment he saw the screen.

What the... why are there so many messages?

Not only was his lock screen piled high with message notifications, but there were even missed calls. The person who had called him twice was perhaps obvious.

Missed Call Now

Kwon Mieon (2)

And why had he sent so many messages? It was true that Mo Yeonhoo had started the game in the middle of their conversation earlier and had not been able to answer....

What could he have so much to say about?

He tried to check the messages in confusion, but pressed the wrong thing and the call went through as it was.

“...Ah.”

Flustered, Mo Yeonhoo tried to hang up immediately.

—Yeonhoo? 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ

If not for the other person’s voice reaching him right away, that was.
