Chapter 6 - “Monster Office (5)”

Seeing Leinster's trashing body slowly stop moving and his body parts slowly disappearing into the screen, the audience paused for a millisecond before bombarding the chat.

[Leinster Slayer:

Hahahaha— the "Father of Monsters" is going to die in the belly of a monster! How ironic!]

[The rumors about his ability being sealed/unusable seemed to be true...he didn't even use his ability when he's about to die.]

[A pro tip— send this guy Death Votes as many as you can and get the "Life Insurances"~ Who knows if the ruin chose us one day? We need those "Life Insurances"!]

[Testicles_Turned_Thesis:

Thanks for the tip, bro!]

[Views: 1000]

DING! [Congratulations on getting 1000 views on your first livestream! The reward will be calculated later~ ]

Following the cheerful mechanical sound, the number of Death Votes shot up from 400 to a staggering 1000!

The gloom of death instantly shrouded Leinster's remaining body parts.

But ironically, with the rising number of death votes, thick malices poured out of the screen, instantly attracting a certain hungry alien.

!

Leinster's eyes shot open and his head swayed unconsciously, chasing after the source of the alluring smell.

Huh? Huh? Such a thick malice! It smells bitter, so spicy, so—

Delicious!

Leinster's lifeless eyes instantly flashed with a strong vitality.

His teeth clenched hard on the screen and his grip on the screen strengthened, albeit only the palm and fingers were left.

"Ughh!"

Malice! So much malice!

He wants it!

All of them!

Leinster greedily sucked the thick malice in the air, but without his antennas, all that malice lingered in the air, unable to enter his body at all.

The alien felt wronged.

Crocodile tears almost welled up in his eyes.

His food! His food! Why don't you give them to him?!

Eat! Eat! He wants to eat those thick, rich emotions!

A seed of obsession took root in Leinster's heart and it quickly grew into a tiny sprout, not even a centimeter tall.

However, the moment the seed burst into such a tiny sprout— Leinster felt a strange, mysterious power welling up deep inside his heart.

Something was clamouring to break free, but with not enough force, the force slowly settled.

The moment Leinster savoured the mysterious feeling, a cheerful mechanical voice rang in his mind.

DING! [Dear Death Challenger, congratulations on your awakening!]

[You have awakened an ability: Emo Market (lvl 2)]

[ >//< Touch me to see more information ••• ]

Time seemed to freeze— no, it did freeze, as if someone pressed a pause button.

Leinster's head spun around as he glanced at the screens popping out around him.

Huh? What? Awakening? Emo Market?

Amidst Leinster's confusion, a colourful screen like a rainbow suddenly popped up, pushing back all the lightless, transparent screens.

[Emo Market (LVL 2)]

[Omo, omo, omo, welcome to Emo Market! (⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠) ]

[As long as you have the corresponding emotions, you can create anything!]

[Emo gauge: 0]

[Limit: 100 emo]

[OmO Please start absorbing emotions~ ]

The screen seemed to be talking to him, but Leinster ignored it, focusing on his own strange feelings.

He felt something familiar.

This sensation...

It was as if his beloved darlings were back and he could eat emotions just like before.

Still, without his beloved antennas, Leinster could only open his mouth and suck the thick malice in the air.

Immediately, a sharp, stinging taste filled his mouth.

Ho~ Spicy!

DING! [Detecting an overwhelming number of malice, hatred, disgust and gloating ••• ]

[OmO congratulations~ You have unlocked "Wrath" Emo! (⁠ノ⁠◕⁠ヮ⁠◕⁠)⁠ノ⁠*⁠.⁠✧]

[Absorbing Wrath Emo ••• ]

The empty gauge floating in the air was suddenly filled with a boiling red liquid and when it hit the top of the gauge, it stopped.

The rest of the thick malice couldn't enter the gauge at all and slowly dissipated in the air.

Leinster's face instantly twisted.

Ah— his food! No, no, don't go— ugh, why can't he absorb all that food??

Oblivious to a certain alien's feeling, the familiar rainbow screen appeared and bounced around playfully.

[Burp! Ahhh~ your gauge is full~ (⁠*⁠´⁠ω⁠`⁠*⁠) Opening the corresponding store ••• ]

[Wrath Store]

A list of strange things that looked like items and abilities popped out of the blue, each name was marked with a price.

[10 Wrath Emo]

[20 Wrath Emo]

A long list of names dazzled Leinster, almost burning his mushy brain.

But one particular name, burning in a fiery flame, quickly caught his eye.

[HOT— Highly recommended!]

[Lvl 1 item: Corrosive Liquid]

[Melt your enemies with just 20 Wrath Emo!]

[Spend 10 more Wrath Emo to level up your item and melt stronger enemies~ ]

Leinster's instinct kicked in and even when he didn't understand what was going on with this whole ability thingy, he quickly chose the thing.

With just one glance, the full red gauge decreased a bit and a new screen popped up.

DING! [Purchasing a Level 1 Corrosive Liquid]

[ -20 Wrath Emo]

Level it up!

With one thought, another 10 emo was deducted and the information changed.

[Level 2 Corrosive Liquid]

Right after the upgrade, the rainbow screen flickered and the transparent screen took over.

DING! [The new awakener's tutorial time is over.]

[Resuming the time flow •••]

Soon, the frozen flow of time thawed and simultaneously, a strange feeling flowed through Leinster's meridians.

His left arm that he couldn't feel at all slowly became warm and a strange red mist slowly swirled around it.

He could feel something was slowly manifesting above his palm...but then, the feeling of fullness in his heart actually decreased!

Did this strange power steal his food and create something with it?

Leinster was about to cough up blood at the "deception" when he felt the mysterious power finally condensed something.

The thing hovered exactly a centimeter above his palm that was already deep inside the rectangular screen monster.

Leinster couldn't see the thing, but he subconsciously knew what it was.

A level 2 corrosive liquid.

If the printer monster was level 1, the monitor monster was level 2.

That means...

A sinister smile crept up Leinster's face that was already slowly sinking into the screen.

His wrist and palm had all been swallowed, leaving just a few fingers and half of his face left.

And yet, in such a bizarre situation, Leinster actually giggled, like a child who just got his favourite toy.

"Hehehehe~ Little monster~ I have a gift for you~ "

Without any hesitation, Leinster casually dropped the bubbling black liquid hovering above his palm straight towards the eerie darkness.

PLOP!
