Chapter 427: Chapter 424: "Finally Caught You." (Wangchuan Chuan qq Alliance Hierarch additional release 5/5)

"..."

Su Ming’an gazed at the image.

The youth’s smile was clean and bright, just like the first time he had seen him. The soft light from the indoor lamps cast gentle shadows, seemingly bringing life to the Knight’s armor.

...However, what remained for him now were only the duties of managing character exhibits and a high-resolution screenshot.

And a notebook in the grid of his backpack.

He lowered his gaze.

Directly beneath the image, inside a glass cabinet that was brightly illuminated by white floodlights, lay a quiet Knight’s Sword.

The craftsmanship of the Knight’s Sword was exquisite, but it was obviously a man-made replica, not the real sword that the Knight had held.

He stretched out his hand, pressing it against the glass.

Separated by the unbreakable layer of glass, he stared at the replica sword, full of notches, his expression neither sad nor happy.

The Demon Fox mask he had been holding was now placed on a chair beside him.

Passersby also stopped at this spot in considerable numbers.

"Who’s depicted here? I don’t remember," a couple sipping bubble tea passed by the counter, the young woman seemingly drawn by the handsome figure of the Knight, pausing in her tracks.

"That’s Sherrod. He is an NPC in the Seventh World Replica, known as the Knight of Light. From the livestreams of Number One Player, it seems that this is an NPC who wanted to become a Player." The young man replied to the girl.

"Wow, did he eventually succeed?" The girl tilted her head, apparently curious.

"I don’t think so... It seems he gave up on his own."

"Oh, that’s a pity, he looks quite handsome..." the young woman said with a slurp from her bubble tea straw.

The young couple wandered off, seemingly not inclined to stay there.

But soon, the young woman, as if having discovered a new world, quickly came rushing back.

"Holy shit, I saw a cosplayer who looks like Su Ming’an by the glass cabinet!" she exclaimed, tugging at her slightly jealous boyfriend.

"How similar can it be... Holy shit!" The young man who was initially indifferent, after taking a glance at Su Ming’an standing in front of the cabinet, couldn’t help but swear.

"Not only does he look alike, but the aura is spot-on too! It’s so uncanny!" The boy was stupefied, "I watch Su Ming’an’s livestreams every day, and this cosplayer is amazing. Just standing there, he gives me the same vibe as Su Ming’an from the livestreams. Xiao Qian, don’t you want to take a picture with this cosplayer? This is such a perfect representation..."

He had already switched to the camera interface, eager to capture this "perfectly represented" cosplayer.

The girl couldn’t resist, she stepped forward and approached directly.

"Excuse me, your cosplay is so spot-on, and even the aura is exact; can I take a picture with you?" she asked tentatively.

Su Ming’an glanced at her.

He thought his current expression must not be very pleasant.

Because the girl, initially excited, actually retreated half a step as if frightened, her face turning pale in an instant.

When an Adventurer Player inadvertently exudes an imposing aura, Casual Players often find it challenging to resist. The more powerful the Adventurer Player, the more apparent the sense of fear they instil in others.

The girl, who had been excited, was so frightened that she dared not speak anymore. She took a step back, grabbed her boyfriend, and started to walk away, her calves trembling.

Su Ming’an had no intention of scaring her away on purpose.

...But she had scared herself off, perhaps because his expression was indeed not very kind.

He turned his head and continued to look at the replica necklaces and other items in the glass cabinet.

The character exhibition area here was very quiet, compared with the bustling activity of the gaming areas, not many people liked to quietly look at the information here, only some middle-aged people and young couples would stroll around.

As he read the information written by the United Group about Sherrod, he suddenly felt someone standing beside him.

The footsteps of the person beside him were so light they were almost inaudible; if Su Ming’an’s perception hadn’t been so acute, he wouldn’t have noticed when someone had moved up close to him.

He thought the person probably also wanted to look at the information, an Adventurer Player like him, and he slightly shifted his body to make room.

However, the person took it a step further, directly leaning in, placing a single hand on the glass cabinet, blocking Su Ming’an’s view of the information.

Su Ming’an frowned, thinking the person probably hadn’t noticed, so he turned his head and slightly shifted his reading angle.

But the other person went even further, attaching their other hand to the cabinet as well, both hands scraping on the glass surface, fingers spread wide, completely obstructing Su Ming’an’s view.

This action seemed extremely ludicrous and also full of provocation, as if intentionally preventing him from reading the information.

Su Ming’an didn’t give ground any longer; he felt this must be a top-ranked player who recognized him and had come to challenge him.

He reached for the Demon Fox mask beside him, pinched it in his hand, stood up straight, turned his head, and looked towards the person who had inexplicably moved closer—

A youth in a dark blue coat, with black hair and dark golden eyes, was scraping his hands against the glass cabinet, leaning slightly askew against it.

He was staring at Su Ming’an, his gaze indifferent as water, and his posture, leaning to the side, seemed somewhat comical.

But Su Ming’an didn’t laugh.

Because he knew who this was.

Su Ming’an would rather have encountered a top-ranked player with whom he had a feud at this moment, even Edward or Andre would have been acceptable, or even if Mizushima Haru had crawled out from the Underworld to find him.

He didn’t want to see this person before him at this moment.

... If in this setting, this person with no understanding of modern norms were to shout and scream, drawing people’s attention, the result would be catastrophic for him.

What with "December 31 Major Stampede Accident," "World Culture Gathering Turns into a Number One Player Panda Exhibition"... he had already thought up the headlines.

Moreover, considering his semi-coercive actions at the end of the Seventh World, he didn’t exclude the possibility that the other person had come for revenge...

He looked at the person in front of him.

If the emotion in that person’s eyes could be put into words, it would be "I finally caught you."

"Found you," the youth in front retracted his hands.

He seemed to realize how inappropriate his posture was and quickly stood up straight.

He glanced at the Knight of Light’s image on the wall: "You seem quite dedicated to this knight... Otherworld traveler who talks the talk."

"Hmm..." Su Ming’an said, "Running into you is also quite unlucky for me today. By the way, the sentence I just said doesn’t count as talking the talk, does it?"

"It doesn’t," Su Rin said, "That sentence doesn’t make me very happy."

"Then I’ve achieved my purpose," Su Ming’an said.

Su Rin frowned at him.

The room light fell on the jet-black hair of this once Deity, and his dark golden eyes revealed confusion.

"All along the way, I’ve been wondering why there are so many people here dressed like you?" Su Rin asked, "Are they your Shadow substitutes to guard against assassination?"
