Peach Blossom gazed in amazement at the red outfit that floated into her hands. What once was a long-sleeved, flowing, and delicate dress had transformed into a garment that combined beauty with an air of intimidation. The light fabric and white lace became the inner layer, changing to black, while the main part of the outfit turned into a form-fitting red leather suit with a front slit extending from beneath the bust to the hem. The gloves and boots also changed to red leather, adorned with lace-made flowers.

"Wow, it's so beautiful!"

Peach Blossom exclaimed in astonishment. She glanced around, noticing that other players were starting to gather to see what had happened, so she quickly left the scene.

Inside the Pendragon Guild headquarters, Peach Blossom twirled in front of the mirror, admiring her reflection. The outfit she wore was truly stunning, making her shine more brilliantly than ever before. Plus, the defensive stats of the set were quite good. She even tested the skills to command several guild members and found that they complied without hesitation.

"This is ridiculous. They have to follow my orders anyway because I'm the guild leader's sister!"

Peach Blossom muttered to herself. Even though she noticed a difference between not wearing the Succubus Outfit Set and wearing it, she wanted to see more clearly how the outfit weakened male players. With that thought, Peach Blossom decided to go out and flaunt it in the city again.

Meanwhile, the unfortunate merchant, who had cheated the wrong person at the wrong time, ended up with his character deleted. The system informed him that when he died, his soul was absorbed into the quest egg that was hatching. One of the conditions for the egg to hatch was the acquisition of a male creature's soul, AI, or player. Consequently, his soul did not get to reincarnate (typically, he would be restricted for 2 hours upon death, but in this case, the soul vanished immediately).

Upon hearing this, the merchant was stunned. His character had amassed considerable wealth through clever cheating, but thinking about it, he realized his character had many enemies. Although he was glad to escape those enemies, he lamented the loss of all his assets, forcing him to create a new character in tears.

Peach Blossom also wondered why the system had not announced any punishment for her killing an innocent player. It seemed fortunate for her, and she had no intention of asking for it to be announced later. She was happy to play dumb, hoping the system had a temporary glitch.

'Wow, unbelievable! Every male player I meet seems dazed and dreamy. Even male pets aren't exempt. Haha, I'm so happy! Now, my brothers won't dare to challenge me!'

Peach Blossom thought joyfully as she continued to stroll through the city with a smile.

Chang Long set out for the starting town early in the morning while the boys were still sleeping. Kitsune, who had been dragged to sleep with Oliang and the others, quietly snuck out, carrying the egg, which had become his responsibility, and followed Chang Long.

"You remember the plan, right, Kitsune?"

Chang Long asked Kitsune, who was carrying her egg beside her.

"We discussed it mentally all night. I remember it well,"

Kitsune replied cheerfully, excited at the prospect of getting four steak pieces per meal if the plan succeeded.

"Good. So, do you have the image of the beautiful girl ready? Make sure it's someone unfamiliar to the players,"

Chang Long emphasized.

"Got it, a real beauty! The players will be shocked!"

Kitsune said confidently.

"Great. Now, put the egg in the bag first. The plan has to be seamless so no one can figure it out later. By the way, this game is so open. We can do whatever we want without interference,"

Chang Long mused, smiling as she thought of the various escapades she had been involved in since she started playing.

Though Kitsune did not fully grasp what Chang Long meant, it nodded in agreement. It stashed the egg in the bag, and then the pair quickly headed back to the starting town.

In the early morning at the starting town, the air was cold with a light fog. Many players still slept comfortably under warm blankets in the hotels, unaware that something exciting was about to happen in the city again.

"Alright, transform into that beautiful girl you mentioned. It's clear here!"

Chang Long ordered. Kitsune nodded and used his transformation technique. Before long, a blonde-haired woman in a simple yet elegant outfit stood smiling at Chang Long in place of Kitsune.

"Ifa!"

Chang Long exclaimed in astonishment, not expecting Kitsune to transform into the elf maiden.

"Yes, master. No! I mean sir. I thought the townspeople might not have seen an elf before, and all elf women are as beautiful as fairies,"

Kitsune replied sweetly, imitating a female voice so well that Chang Long got goosebumps.

"Great job. Proceed with the next phase of the plan!"

Chang Long ordered, pulling up the hood attached to her ragged cloak to hide her face.

"Yes, sir!"

Kitsune responded with a bright voice and led the way, heading toward the souvenir shop of the Journalists and Writers Association.

"He really walks like a woman..."

Chang Long muttered quietly, watching Kitsune walk ahead. He looked like a woman perfectly in every way. It was unclear if this was because Kitsune had a tendency to lean that way or if it was due to the skill used. This was the first time Chang Long had Kitsune transform into a woman.

"Excuse me, I'm looking for a man who said he was in the Journalists and Writers Association. Do any of you know him?"

Kitsune stopped in front of the souvenir shop and addressed the nearly ten staff members inside in a sweet, clear voice.

The shop staff and owner turned sharply to the sound of her voice. Seeing the beautiful woman smiling at them, they rushed to serve her immediately. The shop owner had to use his authority to approach Kitsune in his beautiful woman form, amidst the envious glares of his employees.

"How can I help you, miss?"

The shop owner asked, trying to sound charming.

"I'm looking for... Oh, whose picture is this? It's beautiful!"

Kitsune said, pretending to be very interested as she picked up the picture of Sleeping Beauty.

"Oh! That's a picture of Sleeping Beauty. We sell it as a souvenir. Are you interested, pretty girl?"

The shop owner asked, causing Kitsune to blush at the compliment.

'Oh my... she's so adorable!'

The shop owner thought, his face turning red. Even the staff members were staring at Kitsune without blinking.

"Yes, I am interested, but it looks a bit dark. Could you light it up for me?"

Kitsune said, pretending to be disappointed with the picture.

"Of course! Hey, you guys, get some candles and light them for her right now!"

The shop owner barked at his staff, who pouted and argued over who would get the candles. Seeing the delay, Kitsune smiled sweetly at them, causing them to scramble to light the candles.

Seeing the plan going well, Chang Long moved to the next phase by asking to buy a picture of Sleeping Beauty. The shop staff paid her almost no attention, making her silently laugh in satisfaction at her plan's success.

"Uh... I'd like a picture of Sleeping Beauty too. How much is it?"

Chang Long asked, pretending to be a customer. The shop owner, annoyed by the interruption, placed the candle holder on the shelf and turned to speak harshly to Chang Long.

"Five thousand coins, take it or leave it!"

The shop owner snapped. Kitsune pretended to be startled, knocking over the candle holder and using his ability to control fire, making it spread quickly.

"Oh no!"

Kitsune cried out in fake distress but continued to control the fire to spread. The shop owner turned pale as he saw the merchandise burning.

"How could you do this, young lady? You have to compensate for the damage!"

Chang Long scolded, following the script.

"Sob, I didn't mean to! I was startled because this guy suddenly yelled. sob..."

Kitsune put on a pitiful face and cried, squeezing out tears, making the shop owner, who was about to get angry, immediately soften.

"How can you say that? All these goods are burning down! Look, everything is gone!"

Chang Long pretended to shout in outrage, acting as if he was deeply upset on behalf of the shop owner, who was still in shock. He could not believe how quickly his shop was going up in flames just from candle fire.

"H... hey! You guys, get some water and put out the fire! Stop standing around!"

The shop owner barked at his staff, who were also in shock. The employees quickly scrambled to get water to douse the flames upon hearing their boss's angry command.

The shop owner stood helplessly watching his shop, which the association had entrusted him to manage, burn down right before his eyes. The fire spread rapidly, consuming not only the souvenirs produced by the association but also rare items obtained from hunting monsters.

"Oh no... The head of the association is going to kill me!"

The shop owner lamented, knowing that shops owned by players did not have an automatic restoration system like the ones from the game's system. To restore his shop, he would need to buy the repair services from the bank at a huge cost, and he knew the Journalists and Writers Association would not cover such expenses.

"Miss... It seems you'll have to take responsibility for this!"

The shop owner turned to Kitsune seriously.

"Boo hoo~ I don't have a single coin on me. I'm looking for a man who said he would take care of me, but he disappeared after... doing things like this (Kitsune touched his lips), this (he touched his neck seductively), and this (he placed his hands on his chest) Until I... Ah! I'm so embarrassed!"

When Chang Long gave the signal, Kitsune started an over-the-top melodramatic performance, crying loudly and drawing the attention of passing players.

"O... oh. That's incredible... I mean! Who is this man who dared to harm such a beautiful girl!"

The shop owner, briefly entranced by Kitsune's dramatic performance, shouted. The onlooking players nodded in agreement.

"His name is Kimhant. He said he's with the Journalists and Writers Association. He claimed he had business with the association, then he left me and even borrowed my money. Boohoo~"

Kitsune's voice and expression were so convincingly pitiful that everyone felt a surge of anger toward Kimhant.

'Amazing performance...'

Chang Long thought as she watched Kitsune's act, knowing even professional actors would be envious.

"You guys, go find Kimhant right now!"

The shop owner commanded. His employees, eager to please, rushed to find Kimhant at the association's office behind the shop.

It was not long before Kimhant was dragged out, looking bewildered. Someone had rudely awakened knocked on his door and, upon opening it, he found himself being pulled out without any explanation.

"Hey Kimhant, what do you have to say about this young lady's story?"

The souvenir shop owner asked sternly, gesturing towards Kitsune, who continued her tearful act.

"Who is she? I don't even know her!?"

Kimhan replied, frowning as he scrutinized Kitsune.

"Sob~ You heartless man! You did so many shameful things to me, promised to marry me, then disappeared. Now you say you don't know me? My life is ruined! Boohoo~"

Kitsune cried dramatically and slapped Kimhant hard.

"Ouch! What the hell, you crazy woman? I don't even know you! Get out of here before I get really angry!"

Kimhant yelled, pushing Kitsune so hard that she fell to the ground.

"Ouch! That hurts. How could you do this to me when you claimed to love me? Sob~"

Kitsune cried loudly, turning to shout at Kimhant with tearful eyes, leaving him speechless.

"When did I even confessed my love to yo…

"I can't take it anymore! Die, you bastard!"

One of the players watching Kitsune's performance, filled with sympathy, could not stand Kimhant's actions any longer and leapt at him, throwing a full-force right hook to his face.

"I feel the same. Let me get a kick you to cool my anger!"

"Me too! You scumbag, how dare you hurt such a cute girl."

After that, the players who had been watching swarmed Kimhant. Punches, kicks, knees, and elbows were thrown at the journalist, giving him no chance to explain or defend himself. Even his fellow guild members joined in, envying him, a plain looking man for being pursued by such a cute girl.

Kitsune and Chang Long stood back, watching the scene with satisfaction. This was the punishment for violating the privacy of Reaper Chang Long. Then, they quickly vanished from the scene without anyone noticing.

Chang Long and Kitsune, who had returned to his male form, were now enjoying a meal in the Nine Moon Restaurant. Although Kitsune felt a bit sorry for Kimhant, who had been wrongfully beaten, he was happy to see his master satisfied.

"He's probably respawned by now!"

Chang Long said, checking her wristwatch.

"Kind of pity him,"

Kitsune chuckled softly, stuffing a piece of juicy steak into his mouth.

"He deserved it for taking my picture. By the way, Kitsune, can you make objects catch fire without breathing it from your mouth yet?"

Chang Long asked. Since Kitsune was in human form, seeing him breathe fire would cause quite a stir among other players.

"Hehe, I haven't practiced that yet. So, what's next, Master? Should we go back to Can and the others?"

Kitsune laughed nervously as he had not yet started practicing fire manipulation without having to breathe fire, rubbing his head.

"I plan to visit another island. There's too much going on here, and we've already explored most of the Starting Island."

Chang Long decided.

"Really!"

Kitsune asked excitedly.

"Yes! But first, I need to log off. When I come back online, we'll head to another island."

Chang Long said cheerfully.

"Which island are we going to, Master?"

Kitsune asked, very interested.

"Aseana. My friend is there, and I thought I'd visit her."

Chang Long replied, realizing she had forgotten to add her friend's name to her friend list.

"In that case, should we head to the port today!"

Kitsune suggested, feeling excited, and quickly finished his steak.

"That's a good idea. Are you full?"

Chang Long nodded.

"Yes, master!"
