Chapter 131 - The Demon Realm Girl's Game Studio
In the dim bedroom, the clack-clack of keyboards rose and fell, and several computer monitors cast a dazzling glow in the dark room.
A petite figure sat in front of a screen, one hand on the mouse, the other rapidly tapping the keyboard. She stared intently at the screen, her short legs, which couldn't reach the floor, dangling as she shouted in a delicate voice:
“Wait for me! Engage! Engage!”
“Nice! Push high ground, push high ground!”
Just then, the door was suddenly pushed open, and with a click, the room's light turned on.
The sudden bright light made Mokui subconsciously cover her eyes.
Lin Fan stood at the door, staring irritably at Mokui, who was sitting in front of the computer.
He had thought that since Meizhi had become a host, Longye was a security guard, and Yingnü was delivering takeout on her little electric scooter, Mokui should have also found a suitable job by now, so he had come over to check.
But as it turned out, several days had passed, and she was just cooped up at home playing games all day, a complete gaming addict!
“Lord Demon Sovereign, wait a minute! I'm about to finish this match!”
Mokui said without turning her head, her attention completely focused on the screen.
Seeing this, Lin Fan walked over to the power strip and, with a light pull, unplugged it.
With a pop, the computer screen instantly went black.
“Aaaah! I was just about to take the high ground…!”
The moment the screen went dark, a tragic wail echoed through the room.
“I got ganked by Lord Demon Sovereign…”
“Mokui, it's one thing if you don't look for a job, but all you do all day is stay home and play games.”
Lin Fan walked forward, lightly rapped Mokui on the head, and then pointed at the other laptops and several secondary monitors on the desk, asking irritably:
“Also, where did all this stuff come from? Did you scam it off the internet again?”
The computer he had originally bought for Mokui was just a single desktop. But now, only a few days later, a laptop, several secondary monitors, and other devices like phones had appeared in the room.
He had also rejected her previous requests for in-game top-ups. Where would she get the money to buy so many equipment upgrades?
So, he had reason to believe that she was pretending to be a cute girl online to scam people out of money again!
“You've wronged me, Lord Demon Sovereign! I didn't scam anyone out of their money! I bought all this with my own money!”
Mokui rubbed her head, her face full of grievance.
“Where did you get the money?” Lin Fan pressed.
A mysterious smile appeared on Mokui's pretty face. She then opened the backend of a mobile chat application and showed it to him.
On it, several thousand yuan had appeared in her account balance at some point.
“Where did you get this money?” Lin Fan asked, confused.
As far as he knew, Mokui spent pretty much the whole day cooped up in her room playing games, too lazy to even leave the apartment except to occasionally come over to his place for a meal. How could she have money?
In response to Lin Fan's question, the corners of Mokui's mouth lifted into a triumphant smile.
“I earned it playing games~”
“Earned it playing games?”
Lin Fan was a little surprised. He turned his head to look at the computer in front of Mokui and immediately guessed what was going on.
“You're taking orders as a booster?!”
“Bingo! Lord Demon Sovereign, you guessed it~”
Mokui said with a smile, nodding.
After Lin Fan ordered them to find jobs, she had been thinking about whether there was a job that didn't require leaving the house, would let her happily play games all day, and could still earn money. Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by NoveI★Fire.net
With this thought in mind, she tried searching online, and as it turned out, she really found one.
This world had an online business called 'boosting,' where as long as a client paid, she could act as a hired gun to help them rank up or clear their daily activities.
This way, the client could free up their hands, while she got to play all sorts of different games every day and earn money. Wasn't it a win-win!
And so, she posted on various forums, message boards, and in gaming communities, offering a series of services like contract boosting, clearing daily activities, and carrying clients to higher ranks.
All by herself, she established a 'game studio' called 'Demon Realm Girl' and started taking orders.
As long as it was a game, whether it was boosting for mobile games or online games, or ranking up in competitive games, she took on all jobs.
Relying on her superb gaming skills, coupled with her sweet, girlish voice, her online boosting business soon began to flourish.
After earning some money, she used her self-taught computer knowledge to upgrade her PC parts, add a secondary monitor, and set up a multi-boxing display.
While she was busy helping a client rank up, she could have other games running on the other screens, grinding or clearing dailies, making the most of every single second.
“How much can you earn in a day?”
Lin Fan couldn't help but ask curiously.
Less than a week had passed since he had ordered them to find work.
And in this one week, not only had Mokui acquired a lot of new electronic equipment, but she even had a few thousand yuan left over in her account!
Mokui thought for a moment, counting on her fingers.
“I don't actually earn that much, a far cry from Meizhi. Probably only about a thousand yuan a day.”
“Around a thousand yuan a day?!”
Hearing this, Lin Fan was shocked.
Around a thousand a day, that's thirty or forty thousand a month!
This income wasn't low by any means. It was even more than he, the Demon Sovereign, was earning…
He only made a few thousand a month in royalties…
Originally, his reason for telling the four of them to get jobs, besides keeping them from being too idle, was to let them experience firsthand how difficult it is to earn money, to take a beating from society, and to learn to cherish what they have and be frugal.
But in the end, look at them. They were all making money as easily as drinking water, each one earning more than the last…
“Lord Demon Sovereign, can you plug my power cord back in? I still have to work.”
“That last match... I was just about to win…”
Mokui complained to Lin Fan, her small face full of reproach.
When the power was cut just now, if she lost the game because of it, she'd have to play another match for the client.
That was one thing, but the other games she had running on her other screens also got disconnected. Every single second was a loss!
Now that he knew Mokui playing games was her proper job, Lin Fan could no longer maintain his previous scolding attitude. He silently plugged her power cord back in.
Can't be helped. Who told her to earn more than him…
Meanwhile, downstairs from the apartment building.
A figure stood in the dark bushes of the residential complex. Gnawing on a piece of bread, they stared intently up at the balcony of Lin Fan's apartment.
“Your Majesty the Empress, just you wait! This subordinate will rescue you right away!”
