Chapter 404: Title Change

Translator: Lonelytree Editor: Millman97

“Your title has been updated to Hatred Collector.”

That was the first announcement Feng Bujue heard after he returned to the lobby.

“Huh? Why would that happen?” Feng Bujue narrowed his eyes at his new title. His lips were twitching to show his lack of enthusiasm. “I have just discovered how to manipulate the data in this game... and I lost the power immediately. Without Descent of the War Demon, even if I reach the max level, I might not reach that level of OPness anymore...” he thought about it. “Furthermore... without Descent of War Demon, I would be in great danger in the final...”

He opened the game menu to check the skill of his new title.

———

Name: Pot of Hatred

Special Effect Type: Passive

Effect: Whenever you are attacked, you will recover a certain degree of your Stamina Points and lower the cooldown timer of all your active skills (The reward is proportional to the damage you receive. The attacker must be hostile toward you. Natural disaster, accidental damage, or self-inflicted damage will not procure this effect)

Remark: Being targeted means that you are powerful, or you are that annoying...

Hmm... Feng Bujue concluded, glancing at his skill tab, This skill is immensely useful for players with many active skills. But... I only have four skills that I use commonly in battle. Body Enhancement Spell is continuous, Geppo and Rankyaku have no cooldown, and the only skill that will benefit from this is Flying Dragon Fist...

When Brother Jue was thinking about all that, he stood before the touch screen. The corner of his eyes swept the mailbox and noticed the ginormous amount of mail that he had received... Without clicking into it, he knew that his blacklist would be expanded greatly...

At that moment, a chat request popped up. Feng Bujue accepted it and said, “You finished your battle too?”

It was Wang Tanzhi who replied, “When you were striking pose with Xu Huai Shang at the coliseum, I was already at the market...”

“Hah... Then you must have seen how invincible and handsome I was in that battle,” Feng Bujue said shamelessly.

“How were you invincible...” Xiao Tan mocked. “You were almost killed, and was face-slapped by your own words multiple times, didn’t you? You said to win in 30 seconds, but you failed. You said to tear the opponent in half but that also didn’t happen, and you won in the end because of Musashi. It looks more like you won by a hair’s breadth!”

“Humph...” Brother Jue scoffed. “Using someone like yourself who used Fashion Points to kill Seven Kills will never understand the romance of my match.”

“How come I have not heard of that strange index before...”

“You don’t even know that... Looks like you are still too innocent. When you are tied to the pole and roasted, surely there will be many regrets in your life...”

“Why did the topic suddenly turn to me?! And it is completely senseless! You are just cursing and making fun of me!”

“Stop changing the topic! After many long chapters of battle scene, it is common for there to be a lack of budget,” Feng Bujue responded matter-of-factly. “And when that arrives, the main character has the main responsibility to shoulder the content of the intermediary chapters.”

“What is this lack of budget excuse! We’re not an anime!” Xiao Tan shouted.

“Inspiration is also a kind of budget, okay! Do not look down on us authors! Do you think battle scenes are easy to write? To be careful with the description of the movement, to think about how to describe the scene and background, to do research on the many skill names; to maintain the tempo and ensure that the chapters will not be drawn out too long lest the readers start to complain that it is getting too boring,” Feng Bujue said, “If I am the writer, and I normally concluded the battle scene in one paragraph... For example, A used an ashtray to beat B’s head in. And in the terms of war, it would be like ‘millions of knights trample over the 9 states, unifying the world,’ using such big and sweeping statements to conclude the process. An outsider such as yourself will never understand how difficult it is to use imagination to come up with complicated and imaginative and exciting battle scenes!”

“Are you sure it is okay for you to take the author’s stance so openly in the middle of this chapter...” Xiao Tan said, “And don’t think I don’t know all that nonsense is just to fill up the word count for the chapter...”

“Hmm... Speaking of which, how was your match?” Feng Bujue changed the topic and continued easily, “You were probably one-shotted since it ended so soon.”

“That segue was rather harsh, don’t you think...” Xiao Tan was startled before he replied, “Well, it was me who one-shotted my opponent.” He paused. “Let’s not talk about me anymore... By the way, do you know the situation that you’re in now?”

“What situation?” Feng Bujue replied in a rather proud tone. “What else but the expectation that the popularity around the ID Feng Bujue continues to rise to new heights with people adding fuel to the fire...”

“No, no... That’s not what happened.” Xiao Tan interrupted. “If you didn’t say those unnecessary things during the match, that might be it, but now... The thing that was added to your fire is not fuel but something like swamp gas...”

“Oh, so now I’m being viewed as the ‘bad guy’ by the public, is it?” Feng Bujue guessed.

“The Great Devil is more like...” Xiao Tan said.

“Hehe... The devils in modern cultures these days are either handsome brooding men or seductive women. I’ll take that as a compliment.” Feng Bujue smiled.

“Well... you’re more like the traditional devil, like Baal1...” Xiao Tan corrected.

“Oh, is that so...” Feng Bujue still responded in a calm tone. “Eh... it doesn’t matter. I suspected as much before the match even began. So, I played the role of the bad guy to the best that I could in the match, pushing the envelope as far as I could.”

“If you maintained silence throughout the battle...” Xiao Tan argued.

“Ha! What’s the fun in that?” Feng Bujue cut him off.

“Indeed...” Xiao Tan laughed. “If you’re forced to do that, you would rather surrender...”

...

While Brother Jue and Xiao Tan were chatting, Dream Inc had silently announced the rules of the finals of the Tournament for the Best on the official website...

The final would be at 1 am on the 30th of May. The fifty players from the Battle of the Butterfly would all be transported into a single scenario. Said scenario was the unique scenario made for this occasion. So far, any of the scenarios in the game were only able to support a maximum of six players. This was the first time a scenario would have fifty players inside it simultaneously.

And the battle mode for this final was...
