Chapter 93 Landscape Painter

Han Meimei used the shortcut keys to quickly check the occupation and equipment of Landscape Painter. He was a level-110 magician from Floating Cloud Island, and his equipment was at its full star rank and full magical stone rank. He was exactly the capable trainer that they were looking for.

Han Meimei: [Heart Eyes] Hi, cool dude. Do you come here to train us?

Landscape Painter: Mm-hmm. Hi, Flowing Light. What a pleasant surprise.

Upon seeing that message, Zheng Xiaoguang realized why she found this name somewhat familiar. He was the master of her friend Cool Names Taken by Dogs.

Like many other games, Shiny Sky allowed its players to become masters or have themselves apprenticed regardless of their occupations and sects. Two players could become a master and an apprentice out of personal choice. After establishing such a relationship, the two players could receive some extra missions, extra points and special props. As Zheng Xiaoguang had a big brother, she did not have a master. Her friend Cool Names Taken by Dogs was apprenticed to a top-notch player who played a magician in the game, and this player was Landscape Painter.

Flowing Light: Ah, you’re Dogs’ master!

Han Meimei: Do you know each other?

Flowing Light: Yes, he’s the master of my friend.

Han Meimei: Great, you know each other. Fancy running into you here, hot dude. We really need a trainer now. Can you get online everyday to help us gain levels efficiently? I promise that you’ll be well-paid. If you’re okay with this, can we try to gain levels together now?

Landscape Painter: Mm-hmm.

With Landscape Painter on the team, they gained levels much more efficiently than before. Landscape Painter could reduce the monsters’ blood volume by half by using just one Area Effect skill, and they just needed to assist him in the fight. With his help, they completed all the weekly missions within one hour.

Han Meimei: It feels amazing to gain levels easily with the help of a high-level player. Why didn’t I discover this before?

Li Lei: Hey, honey, you need to calm down now!

Flowing Light: Haha, Li Lei is jealous. Meimei, watch out. He’ll make you kneel on the keyboard at night.

Han Meimei: Sigh. I’ve met your parents together with you. I treat you sincerely, honey. You should believe that.

Li Lei: If so, why don’t you marry me now?

Han Meimei had been urged to get married since meeting Li Lei’s parents in A City. As she was only 20, she really did not want to get married and have children at this age.

Han Meimei: Uhm~ I’m still young. Let me enjoy myself for two more years~

She would turn 22 after two years.

Li Lei adored Han Meimei, but he was the same age as Bluegreen-Clad. He should get married at this age. He began to lead his girlfriend on systematically: Don’t you want to live with me as soon as possible? If you don’t marry me now, we have to continue this long-distance relationship. Don’t you think that it’s such a torture?

“It’s really painful for people who love each other not to see each other every day.” With this in mind, Zheng Xiaoguang felt sorry for them and spoke for Li Lei: Yeah, Meimei. It’s not easy to meet a good guy.

Han Meimei: Well, I’ll marry Li Lei when you marry Bluegreen-Clad. After all, you’re my elder sister. I should marry after you.

Zheng Xiaoguang had never expected this. Neither had she expected that Bluegreen-Clad would have taken this chance to urge her to get married. Bluegreen-Clad said: Yeah, I agree with Meimei. Both of us reached marriageable age a long time ago. Shouldn’t we begin to consider our future now, honey?

“Huh? It was Li Lei that urged Han Meimei to marry him. Why did I suddenly get shot while lying down?” She flushed bashfully as she thought, “Fortunately, Bluegreen-Clad can’t see my face now. I really don’t know how to answer his question. His family will probably accept our relationship, but my parents…”

When they were chatting gleefully, Landscape Painter who had remained quiet all this while asked inquiringly: “You seem to get along really well with one another.”

Han Meimei: Yes, cool dude. Now you’re watching two couple showing off their love.

As Landscape Painter was Dogs’s master, Zheng Xiaoguang felt somewhat embarrassed.

Flowing Light: You’re the only one who’s courting envy here.

Han Meimei: [Making a Face] But there are indeed two couples on this team.

Bluegreen-Clad: Well, do you want to court envy together with me, honey?

Upon seeing their messages which were sent out almost at the same time, Zheng Xiaoguang smiled and shook her head. When she was about to reply to their messages, she saw a Private Chat message from Landscape Painter: Do you really like Bluegreen-Clad?

Although he was Dogs’s master and friend, Zheng Xiaoguang was not familiar with him. As such, she simply replied: “Yes, he’s my husband.”

Landscape Painter: What about Cool Names Taken by Dogs? It looks like that you don’t refuse to get married in the game. If so, why did you refuse him in the past?

Zheng Xiaoguang thought in surprise,”Is he talking about Dogs’ proposal to me? Why does he bring this up now? What an incongruous question. Does he think that I betrayed Dogs or something?

“This is really strange…” Zheng Xiaoguang was not sure about his attitude, so she decided to answer his question truthfully.

[Private Chat] Flowing Light: He was joking with me back then. He always said that no one would want to marry me and liked to play tricks on me.

[Private Chat] Landscape Painter: Have you ever thought that he might really like you?

[Private Chat] Flowing Light: Huh? That’s impossible~ Dogs told me a long time ago that games were games and he would never take them seriously. He said that even if he got married someday, he would just do this to recruit another regular member for our team.

In the meantime, she thought, “Dogs and I were regular teammates. We did not need to get married. If Bluegreen-Clad had never set me up, I would’ve stayed single in the game all the time.”

[Private Chat] Landscape Painter: Do you know why he quit the game?

[Private Chat] Flowing Light: I don’t know! But speaking of this, I’m still angry with him. He left without saying goodbye and left all his things to me. I still keep all those things for him, and they occupy half the space in my warehouse. I really don’t know where to find him now.

She could not help but sigh inwardly. “I really care about Dogs. However, he left without giving me his contact information. What a cold-blooded friend. He probably has never taken his friends in a game seriously. Maybe that’s why he cut us off when he left.”

After quite a long time, Landscape Painter replied: Do you want Cool Names Taken by Dogs to come back?

As they were good friends, she sincerely hoped to meet him again in the game. Give this, she replied without any hesitation: Yes, of course.

Upon thinking of his things which occupied half the space in her warehouse, she added: When he comes back, I’ll return all the things to him and charge him a warehouse management fee.
