Chapter 84: Lord Evil God, This Is How You’re Helping? |
As Vivian’s voice fell, everyone’s curious gazes subconsciously turned toward her.
None of them understood what Vivian intended to say at a time like this.
Thus, under everyone’s attention, Vivian’s voice rang out.
“Just now, I heard many people talking about Lilith.”
“Even now, many people are saying that Lilith only managed to sneak into the academy with such good results because she followed me.”
“To those who think like that, all I can say is that this is probably all you’ll ever amount to in your life.”
Vivian paused briefly as she spoke.
“Since when has a person’s contribution within a team been judged solely by what Magic Ring Tier they are, or what skills they possess?”
“Every person can play their own role in different teams. Rather than looking at all this messy nonsense, shouldn’t you instead look at what they actually did?”
“And in the end, everyone still assumes the stronger person contributed more.”
As she spoke, Vivian’s gaze swept across the crowd. “Your kind of arbitrary judgment completely distorts the efforts of everyone else who contributed!”
Immediately afterward, under everyone’s gaze, Vivian pulled the still-dazed Lilith onto the stage.
“Take us for example.”
“Yes...... you saw my status panel, so you instinctively assumed Lilith contributed nothing.”
“But do you know the truth?”
“No! You know absolutely nothing.”
“In your eyes, it’s simply that Vivian is Two-Ring while Lilith isn’t even First Ring.”
“What could she possibly do? She can’t even beat a Goblin, so Lilith is just a freeloader who got carried while Vivian got MVP!”
As the words fell, Jiang Chen looked at the somewhat confused crowd below and could not help muttering—
“What kind of reaction is this?”
“I get it now!”
Jiang Chen suddenly came to a realization.
What he had just said was still too advanced for them. It was normal they could not understand it.
Thus, Jiang Chen decided to give an even simpler example.
“It’s like how you studied hard back at your hometown academy and finally obtained a recommendation slot to enter a magic academy.”
“Are your instructors and academy freeloaders?”
“Answer me! Look my eyes!”
“Can you really say that your academy and instructors had absolutely no role in you obtaining that slot?”
“Then why are you saying Lilith was useless?”
“Without instructors, would you even understand the knowledge written in books?”
“Without an academy, would you even have instructors teaching you?”
“Yes yes yes... without an academy I can do it, without instructors I can do it. Look at so-and-so, they never attended a single day of school and still got here.”
“So clearly your instructors and academy were the ones benefiting from your glory. That means you’re the MVP, while the academy and teachers are freeloaders who got carried.”
“I’ll carry your damn mother!!”
Looking at the crowd below gradually beginning to whisper among themselves because of his words—
Jiang Chen nodded in satisfaction.
Clearly, his words had already touched their souls.
“Um, Vivian, thank you.... but is this really okay?” Beside her, Lilith was deeply moved.
She understood very clearly that Vivian was doing all this for her sake.
“But there’s really no need to do this.”
Lilith spoke sincerely.
“Why’re you being polite? We’re freaking bros.” Jiang Chen controlled Vivian and waved his hand indifferently.
“But that’s not what I’m worried about.”
As she spoke, Lilith pointed toward the new students below the stage.
Following the direction Lilith pointed toward, Jiang Chen looked over at the crowd’s expressions and found himself somewhat puzzled.
“What’s wrong? Is there a problem?”
Jiang Chen looked confused.
Some people below had faces flushed red, some were red-faced and agitated, and some were desperately grabbing the classmates beside them while nonstop rambling.
“Looks like I really touched their souls pretty deeply.”
At this moment, Jiang Chen finally understood the charm of language. Greatness required no further explanation.
“Awoooo!!”
“We’re dead! Totally dead! Deep your freaking head!” Vivian was already losing her mind.
Actually, the moment Lord Evil God started speaking, Vivian had already realized things were about to go terribly wrong.
Vivian had a profound understanding of Lord Evil God’s foul mouth. After all, back in the Eternal Tower, hadn’t Lord Evil God offended everyone with a single sentence?
Sure enough, Lord Evil God did not disappoint Vivian.
The moment he opened his mouth, all kinds of incomprehensible phrases came pouring out.
Even Vivian—who had spent so much time with Lord Evil God and gradually figured out the meanings of some of his strange vocabulary—could not fully understand him.
Let alone everyone else. They understood even less.
Among the very few terms she could understand, for example, “freeloader who got carried” clearly sounded like he was insulting people by calling them dogs.
And Vivian could also understand “I’ll carry your damn mother.”
That sentence contained an extremely high level of mother-related profanity.
So if all the incomprehensible words were ignored, then in Vivian’s understanding, the rough meaning of what Lord Evil God had just said was basically this:
First, Lord Evil God opened by calling everyone’s former academies and teachers dogs.
Then came a bunch of meaningless rhetorical questions.
Afterward, he once again insulted everyone’s teachers and academies by calling them dogs.
And finally, he wrapped things up with an extremely profane insult involving someone’s mother.
Although Vivian felt that Lord Evil God probably did not mean it exactly that way and likely had some deeper meaning—
That understanding only existed because she had long since grown used to Lord Evil God’s muttering.
And because she had gradually formed her own guesses and interpretations regarding some of his strange vocabulary.
But could these people understand things the same way she did?
Obviously not!
So.....
“Yay!”
“Lord Evil God did an amazing job!”
“Vivian just wants to ask one thing.... just one thing... Lord Evil God, from now on, if Vivian walks alone at night, will she get dragged into a sack and beaten up?”
“Curious!”
Vivian felt that her future academy life might become utterly hopeless.
At the same time, Vivian finally understood the true weight behind the phrase “Never pray to an evil god.”
All she had wanted was for Lord Evil God to help Lilith.
So this was how he helped?
By making her attract all the hatred and redirecting everyone’s attention onto her instead.
What kind of absurd operation was this?
Vivian felt a lump of frustration stuck in her chest.
You helped Lilith, but Lord Evil God, could you maybe think about me a little too?!
Meanwhile, on Jiang Chen’s side—
A quest completion notification popped up.
【Special Quest: Vivian’s Prayer (Completed)】
【Quest Summary: Although the player perfectly redirected the conflict and solved the problem for Vivian, Vivian herself is extremely dissatisfied with this behavior.】
【Congratulations, you received 30 freely allocatable attribute points. Vivian Favorability +0】
“What the hell? Redirected conflict?”
Jiang Chen rubbed his eyes. “No seriously, is this right? What conflict did I redirect?”
“And what’s wrong with Vivian? Are you seriously dissatisfied now? What, do you want to ascend to heaven or something?”
Hearing Lord Evil God’s familiar muttering voice—
“And also, hateful Lord Evil God, you made me offend so many people all at once. Isn’t it normal for me to be dissatisfied?”
“And you’re the sick one! Your whole family is sick!”
