Oh my god... it’s a horned sub-dragon type BOSS! An ultra-rare Red Water Dragon! Yingning whispered, covering her mouth, a lacquer-red Magic Energy Codex in her hand.

We were hiding in the Little Lake behind that big crowd of players. Our heads tucked into the reeds, so no one spotted us.

So they’re secretly pulling a world BOSS... No wonder they’re so sneaky! Yingning glared at the scene ahead, teeth clenched, mind made up in a flash. You go back to the Pet Space. I’ll post the video and coordinates to the forums right now... These animals want to hog it all? Hah... dream on!

Don’t! I hurriedly stopped Yingning from uploading. The BOSS’s HP is already below half. The others might not make it in time. Even if they do, they can’t shortcut like us. Jian Hui Tianxia has blocked every entrance. They won’t stall long, but it’ll still slow people down. By then, the BOSS inside might be dead already. So your plan won’t work. It’s not steady.

Yingning stared at me, surprised. She never expected a game pet to keep giving her strategies. It made her a little frustrated, but also delighted. Then what do we do? Xiaoya, got any ideas?

Call me big sis and I’ll tell you! I turned my head, a little awkward.

So unfair! Why am I not a male pet... no, why am I a pet at all! In real life, that little Yatou is just my tagalong. I finally get a chance to plant the glorious big-bro image in her heart, yet I’m stuck with this role!

No! If I can’t be Big Brother, I’ll be Big Sister!

This is a matter of principle!

Pet Command: Explain nicely!

Hey, hey, that’s not how the script goes!

Master, my suggestion is a two-pronged approach! I spoke up, forced to be obedient.

Two-pronged?

Yep! Two moves at once. Muddy the waters completely!

DanDan Yancaowei was a Priest. His name sounded worn and uncle-ish, but he looked like a fair, gentle high-schooler.

Right now his hands on the Priest Staff were slick with sweat. The long, high-tension fight had drained him.

A weight settled on his shoulder, and DanDan Yancaowei stole a glance back.

That glance hooked him. He couldn’t look away.

He’d met plenty of pretty girl players. But never one like the Demon Clan girl before him—pure and sweet, yet carrying a nameless allure. Warm and soft. One look and your heart felt clear and happy. A top-tier beauty.

If you had to name it, it was womanly charm. The womanly charm on her was the strongest he’d ever seen.

Big bro, tired, huh? How about a break? I’ll take over! I had no idea what he was thinking. I pressed my lips and gave him a small wink.

A shiver flowed through him at once. He even forgot his own name. Face red, he nodded in a rush.

Such a simple kid. One look and you can tell he’s a rookie... Wait, why am I judging him like this!

I worked hard, tossing Healing Spells at the Main Tank in a steady stream.

Uh... what’s your name? the man—or rather, the boy—asked shyly.

Me... it’s too embarrassing. Better not say. I gave an apologetic smile.

Ha, Yancaowei! Since when did you hook up with such a top-tier girl! And a Healer! Not even introducing her to us!

Yeah, yeah!

Voices chimed in, laughter flared. Soon, all eyes were on me.

I kept a shy smile and kept throwing Healing Spells at the Main Tank.

Assassin Mandatory Lesson One: Camouflage!

You must be able to blend into any role, anytime—courier, chef, Server, sales rep, cleaner, mechanic, driver, elder, student, office worker, gay man, even a woman!

Stay calm under fire. Even in the enemy camp, surrounded on all sides, where one slip means no grave for you... you must truly become the role you play. Enough to make an Oscar winner feel small.

Good. My Camouflage isn’t rusty.

Next comes Assassin Mandatory Lesson Two.

Infiltration!
