"Oh! It's Cutiepie69! You can call me Cutiepie!"

"Cutie… pie?" XuanLake was not sure if he heard this right. He observed Yunyu from head to toe and saw no pink attribute in his gear. But the name was enough to make XuanLake took a step back carefully, "Is that really your game id?"

"Yes!" Yunyu excitedly showed his profile to XuanLake. He had previously fabricated his profile to hide his real identity. XuanLake stared at the profile of this guy and found that he was not lying.

***

Registered Name: Bai Yunyu

Game id: Cutiepie69

Level: 30

Passive: The god of cute stuff!

Catchphrase: In the name of the moon, I shall punish you! Kyun~

***

"Your id really is Cutiepie69…" XuanLake mumbled. He couldn't believe a man would be this shameless to write his game id like that. Since the game would scan the player's real id to match the player's in-game facial feature and gender.

"Indeed! Brother Xuan, please call me Cutiepie in the future!"

"Cutiepie…" XuanLake mumbled. Although it was an embarrassing name, somehow, it was lighthearted enough to make him less guarded.

[Pupa: Ding! Fatemeter increases to -35%.]

[Pupa:… you seem to be very proud of that catchphrase and game id. You can mask it with your skill if you want, you know…]

[NOPE! I am wholly proud of that name! If the real Cutiepie69 is here, I will worship him as my sect leader of our secret society!]

[Pupa: Secret society?]

[Yes! The name of the secret society should be the society of mature with magical heart!]

[Pupa:…]

[What? The original Magical girl fans are most likely working young adults or even married at this point!]

XuanLake frowned as he read that innate passive. There were many passives in this virtual reality game. There were plenty of ways to create a passive skill. One should be creative and start combining various passives obtained by slaying monsters, creating potions and magic tomes, going to specific places, or even doing miscellaneous stuff.

XuanLake had seen many people with creative passive, but god of cute stuff?

"What does your passive do?"

[Eh, for real though, what does that passive do?]

[Pupa: Nothing. Well, it has no advantageous effect. This passive is an advanced version of 'Cute Power' passive. It just makes every regular attack or spell that you do turns into the cuter version that is completely useless.]

[Pupa: Since you have the highest rank of this passive, all cute attacks you do will be five times more fatal, just like what happened with your Heart Hurricane.]

[Pupa: Cutiepie69 also has developed this passive, so any attack copied from Sailor Moon will be ten times more fatal. There is no limitation of the multiplier, so if the base damage of your attack is 10000, it will break through the 99999 damage limit and so on.]

[Huh, that is a fantastic effect! Probably the best out of the bunch!]

[Pupa: Well, it's too embarrassing for many people, so nobody ever equipped this passive. Besides, to unlock the god of cute stuff, you have to do so many humiliating stuff, like cosplaying and act cute in public.]

[Well, shame on them then!]

"This passive makes my attack cute!" Yunyu said. He wanted to show off any attack copied from Sailor Moon, but that might be too much of a showoff and would make XuanLake suspicious.

"Here, I will show you my attack!" Yunyu raised his index finger in the air and chanted, "Rock Throw!"

XuanLake peered, waiting for that very typical low-level earth attack where the player created a medium-sized rock that he could throw anywhere. The medium-sized rock finally appeared over Yunyu's head. Then, in less than a second, a bright light engulfed the rock and turned it into brown jello.

Brown… jello.

Yunyu threw the jello in a similar style like he did the rock throw, and the jello just… jiggled on the floor.

"That's my passive! I turn everything into cute stuff!" Yunyu said proudly.

…

'What the fuck is that useless passive?!' XuanLake was screaming inside his head. He had the urge to facepalm after seeing passive so useless. It might as well be deleted from the game.

'Well, at least, I am sure that he is a completely useless meat shield that I can use in case of emergency,' XuanLake thought, he lowered his guard slightly against Cutiepie69.

[Pupa: Ding! Fatemeter increases to -30%.]

"Well then, since it's still early morning, why don't we go now? We can teleport through the nearest teleportation statue in the meadow and walk until we are in the range to teleport again. I think we can get to Ander town after a day of walking and teleporting," XuanLake said.

"Sounds great!" Yunyu nodded enthusiastically. He held XuanLake's hand. XuanLake immediately slapped Yunyu's hand away;

"What are you doing?!" XuanLake glared at Yunyu. There was an obvious disgust in his eyes as if he was looking at a nasty bug.

"Eh? But we are going to teleport, right? I have to hold you to follow your teleportation," Yunyu said.

"Just hold the hem of my shirt," XuanLake said.

[… Ding: Bai Yunyu's Fatemeter decreases to -10%. What a jerk! He looks so disgusted!]

[Pupa: I would do that too if I were him.]

[… Ding: Bai Yunyu's Fatemeter decreases to -20%.]

[Pupa: Honestly, though, if you have a real Fatemeter, I bet it will be filled to 100% immediately after a wild night.]

[Well, nothing fixes a misunderstanding better than a wild night together… teehee.]

Yunyu innocently held the hem of XuanLake's shirt. XuanLake took out a teleportation crystal, and a blue circle engulfed them. In an instant, they were teleported under a statue in the center of a vast meadow.

"We are in the Faran Meadow. We will have to walk to Faran City, about half a day until we can reach the city. Then we can teleport to the Ander Forest statue," XuanLake explained.

Yunyu watched the meadow in awe. The meadow was vast, with monsters roaming around freely. He felt that he had been truly transported to a fantasy world.

[Beast-like monsters, bird monsters, slithering snake monsters, so many monsters… This is amazing!]

"Stay guarded, Faran Meadow has many levels 40+ monsters. It is one of the reasons why there are rarely players who used the Faran Meadow as a teleportation spot. Albeit a shortcut, it is too dangerous for many. It will be troublesome if you get caught," XuanLake warned. Although these monsters were like ants for him, it would still be troublesome if Cutiepie got caught.

He needed to persevere this meat shield until they reached that unknown dungeon.

"Yes, sir! I will stay guarded!" Yunyu gave out a salute for XuanLake, "I will never let myself get—"

Just right before he finished his sentence, Yunyu felt something wrapped around his leg, and he got caught by a giant vine, "AAAAAHH! SAVE ME, BROTHER XUAN!"

The ground was shaking as giant vines appeared from the ground. A rambunctious roar was heard near their position.

XuanLake darted his eyes towards the source of the voice and saw a giant ivy monster with a huge gaping mouth made out of tree bark. It had dozens of giant vines that acted like tentacles.

"Appraisal," XuanLake used his skill and identified the monster.
