Shadow of the Abyss - Chapter 38: Infernal Bane II

After a series of life-changing events, Pei Ge decides to start anew and rediscover her place in this world. She gets a new job, new friends and… a new boss whom she mistakes as a male host!

He helps her to get revenge on a back-stabbing friend, supports her when it seems that the world has given up on her, encourages her to be more confident about herself and even… messes up her blind dates!

With her strong working abilities and fiery attitude, she manages to climb up the ranks in the company (under the devious scheme of a certain CEO) and even gains a fan girl who can’t wait to be her sister-in-law.

As Pei Ge navigates through the ups and downs of office politics, family drama, finding her right partner and societal expectations, she realizes that things are not as simple as it seemed and everything she had believed in is tested…

The Big Misunderstanding:

“You asshole! Why didn’t you use protection?! I’m pregnant!”
“…It’s not mine.”
“Asshole! You actually dare to not admit it?! I gave all my firsts to you! You jerk!”
…
At the gynecologist, she read her pregnancy lab report and was stunned: Irregular period.
The man raised an eyebrow and smirked, “Didn’t you make a ruckus about being pregnant with my child? Where is the child?!”
“…” Who is scared of who? Let’s make a bet!

[You have signed in!][Lucky spin in effect!][You have obtained (Immortal Body)!]---Rion was a teenage boy who, unfortunately, had never seen the world beyond his own.Born with a weak body and a mind too great for it, never allowed a single moment of peace; he always dreamt of the outside world, of the great nature.His doctor had told him that he would be going out soon... but he didn't think he meant he would be outside like this.Rion had died that day, only to be reincarnated in a tribe of Warriors. But this time his life would be different as he was accompanied by his cheats. Rion had decided to live a simple life—[Ding!][You have signed in at The Spring of Youth!][You have obtained the passive skill (Minor Heal)!][Ding!][Lucky Spin is in effect!][Congratulations! You have obtained 100x reward!][You have obtained the passive skill (Immortal Body)!]—Until he obtained Immortality.He had never cared about the rewards he obtained from his sign-in system and lucky spin; he was happy with anything—everything, but... Now he could travel the world without fearing what he feared the most—death. He had gained Immortality, after all.____Stakes would be low. Mostly Slice of Life with tidbits of action and drama.

Sakimori Kagami plays a VRMMORPG called Arch Earth Online. He is a veteran player with the name and appearance similar to an elderly bearded wizard from a certain book about a ring.

One day he purchases an appearance change item as a last resort to spend expiring currency and gets the idea of choosing what he would want to look like if his character was ever a girl.

Falling asleep should have suspended the game, but Kagami wakes up still online and feels the game has has gotten a bit more realistic. Did Arch Earth Online finally get a long-awaited update?

Kay didn't have the best life. Most of it was fairly standard, but his past was marred by a tragedy that changed his entire world. Years later he had managed to mostly rebuild his life, and had started making something of himself.

And then he woke up in a different world. A world of fantasy and [Classes], a world much more dangerous than the one he'd been born in.

The new world he's been dumped into doesn't hold anyone's hand. Even with the bonuses that being an Outworlder brings won't keep him perfectly safe. One mistake could kill him in an instant.

But maybe, with a little bit of help, he could start over once more, and start to make something of himself again. And maybe, just maybe, that something he makes himself into could be amazing. And bloody.

As I'm leaning right now there probably will be sexual content later on, but I might change my mind later. There definitely will be death, gore, violence, and blood. Lots and lots of blood.

I changed my mind. No adult stuff in this story.
