I will be The Monkey God!

Ruo stood up and extended her hands to the wardrobe.

She dressed properly, then returned to her seat. Now, in a navy blue jacket, Ruo had serious and officer-like air swirling around her.

This air was by no means fake, "My father was a soldier and devoted his life to the army. He became a general and a few years later, I arrived in this world." Ruo was the sole child in her family, so her father treated her like a boy.

He taught her how to fight, how to hold a knife, and all other military terms that any other girl would've already been crying about. Rather than playing with others and trying new clothes with other girls, Ruo had been sparring with male soldiers, her father, and learning how to fight.

Her father was often disappointed in her, "You are weak... Girls are too weak... Why couldn't you be a boy?"

"That's a cruel thing to say!" Michu responded.

"I know. But that was my father saying those things... Because of him, I wanted to become a boy and so I trained harder," Ruo couldn't go against her father, especially during her younger days!

She felt like he was right and followed him diligently, to no avail!

Although her soul didn't lack anything, her body couldn't keep up with soldiers and she was destined to be that weak woman! She also grew into a beautiful lady that heavily influenced soldiers with her smile.

Therefore, Ruo became stern with others and blamed everyone for small mistakes.

New recruits hated her, soldiers took her as conceited and a lot of problems rose in Ruo's life as she was slowly getting lonely.

But she carried on with such an attitude as it lessened the burden and disappointment in her father's eyes.

A game world got introduced later on.

In this world, Ruo was different.

She took a different weapon, dyed her hair blue, and just began an utterly different life. Of course, her life was just different at the beginning of gameplay! People were too naive and they lacked killing intent and any battle experience.

Ruo guided those and formed friendly relationships with many players!

Although no one could keep up with her, Ruo wasn't held back by her responsibilities or any expectations.

She was so free!

"I stumbled upon a disgusting scene with women surrounded by male players." In the early days of Four Leaf World, a lot of female players had chosen to become supporters! They choose a lot of classes related to helping and subclasses related to alchemy for potion-making.

Although listening to the early days was fun, Michu frowned when Ruo recalled that event... He knew how it would turn! "You beat them, right?"

"Of course," Ruo smiled and carried on with her talk, "In real life, I was surrounded by men. In the game, I decided to form a female-only guild and help women. I don't know what exactly drove me here, but I ended up in another similar situation later on. I was alone."

As her level increased, Ruo became a goddess for many ladies in her guild.

She had a few talented players in her guild, but that was nothing compared to the top guilds! However, the numbers of her guild were pretty large and she got a lot of influence, connections, and authority!

Michu nodded, "I think Miss Ruo wants to be a woman, not a goddess!"

His conclusion was based on the Sword Mistress' feelings! She sounded the happiest while speaking about her early days in the game. When she held the new weapon and fought against people and monsters together with others!

Those others weren't just women, but other players who were good friends for the beginning of her road.

Michu chuckled, "Miss Ruo likes to help others!" He raised thumbs, "I also like to help others! We would be a good pair! Haha!"

"I agree with that," Ruo replied.

"Oh... With what?" Michu asked with a faint blush! He understood that his words were ambiguous!

The Sword Mistress didn't reply back and just wore a pleasant smile on her face, "I wanted to be a woman... My career on social media began when I posted my photo by mistake." She was already taking better care of her looks before that mistake!

It was another try to separate herself from her 'soldier-like life, then her career on social media changed her again.

Her hair grew longer and skin became milky rather than tanned from training outside!

"I have a question!" Michu suddenly asked. "Did your Goddess Status help female players to become stronger?"

Ruo believed she understood the reason behind this question, "Let me think about it." She deeply pondered, believing that it would mend some of her problems too.

Her guild members weren't comparable to the top guilds except for a few that were permanent members of her 'party'. But her guild wasn't the weakest either! One could say that it was a perfectly mediocre result or balance!

But Ruo felt like her players were relying on her fame too much.

No one wanted to bother with her amazons due to her fame! And in the past, Ruo hunted a lot of those disgusting men! It was a short time for her, but it left a deep stamp on her name since it was done in the early stages of the game!

And she was ruthless! Some stories even mentioned some in-game castrations and splitting balls...

"What's the point of me trying to stand up for women if I am just a mere inspiration that doesn't drive them at all? Is that what you wanted to tell me?" Ruo asked.

The results spoke for themselves! Although Ruo would confirm later, she felt like her reputation hadn't changed many women in the game or around her...

Rather than trying to make women stand out and be better, she should've just visited her father and challenged him for a proper fight, both verbal and fist one!

"Um... I didn't think that deeply..." Michu awkwardly caressed his chin, "I think it's good to focus on yourself, though... I learned that on my own! You see, I was really mindful of others, but it's much better when I just do my best for my family and friends!"

"So why did you ask me this question?" Ruo asked.

"Hmm..." Michu caressed his chin slower... "I might get... an army in the game! It should be different for players and residents, right?" Michu felt like he explained well without revealing much of his class!

Ruo nodded, "Players and residents just have different principles. The former solely focuses on the benefits they can gain in the game and how this relationship affects their future. For residents, it varies, but it's not an exaggeration to say that a powerful resident might become your soldier just out of interest or for a small favor. But you 'might' have an army skill... Heh, interesting."

"Why is it interesting? There are a lot of armies, right?" Michu replied as he imagined his class being revealed at any second.

Ruo crossed her legs and pushed her chest out, "Of course there are."

And their stalemate continued.

Michu didn't know what to say. He wished KongFu could've just appeared here and helped him with the talk for their Monkey God's Church!

That was the sole reason Michu asked that question! Either way, Michu would soon invite his farmer friends to his land and raise banana productivity!

"Haha!" From a flustered monke to a happy monke, Michu's expression and moves had been changing a lot in this stalemate.

Beautiful blue eyes reflected each of his moves, "I have to thank you, Michu. Let's drop the honorifics first."

"Okay!"

"Then, let me share with you my new path. I will focus more on my relationship with my party. We aren't close like 'close friends' would and I still feel like they are too respectful towards me. I will focus on the guild tournament then and find some talents. And if I find some lazy asses, I will kick them. If I find some vases that are getting used, I will scold them instead of hating that whole Harem Law..." Ruo replied.

"Oh! That sounds so cool! It feels good to make friends, so I think changing relationships for the better should also be a pleasant road. I wish you the best! And a guild tournament!" Michu caressed his chin, "Nice..." Harem Law was something Michu had hard times thinking about, but he was leaning more toward it...

For now, he accepted the harem and wished everyone in it the best!

"Haha! I have been running around early leveling grounds lately, so I can prepare nice tournaments across all levels," Ruo chuckled, "Before that, I will fight with my father and make him say these words, 'You are strong, Ruo'. Haha!"

"Hehe! Beat him!"

With how much they laughed, it was clear that the hangover was long since gone! The new friends discussed their plans and Michu shared a little of his new epic quest!

"Poisons, huh! I don't like poisons, you know? Too annoying to deal with and such a slow death is not fun at all." Ruo shrugged! 

"But it's good to have a poison master on your side! Hehe!" Michu chuckled!

And his new friend couldn't not agree with him!

In a good mood, Ruo proposed something, "Do you want to learn a nice technique from me?"

"A technique?" Michu's eyes flashed with thrill.

"A technique that would help you win against Yumi," Ruo flashed a smile too and stood up.

She let her jacket hanging on the chair and in a thin shirt, she stomped on the bed while beckoning Michu to follow her.

Once they faced each other on this bed, her eyes suddenly went to the side.

Michu followed her gaze innocently, but it was a naive move!

The moment his eyes went to the side, Ruo's kick swept from below and his vision fell onto the ground. In the blink of an eye, Michu ended up in Ruo's hands as she wrapped her limbs around him!

How did she do it and how was she so fast?

Michu thought inwardly while trying to move his limbs, to no avail! He also recalled his battles with Yumi and the grimace manifested on his face!

"A cobra," Ruo laughed, then parted her lips. Her hot breath already tickled Michu's ear, but she went for more and bit him here.

It was not just a bite as she munched and enjoyed his trembling body!

Michu felt a jolt of electricity zapping him! He shivered and asked, "W-What are you doing?"

"Cobra," Ruo jested and played around with the monke!

Later on, he learned that technique and brought Ruo down for the first time!

His victory was saved on his phone as the second alluring photo that fell straight to Michu's new folder.
