Li Luo opened his eyes. It took a few moments of confusion for him to sober up. He looked at the surrounding, familiar furnishings and realized that he’d returned to the real world.
[Great Host, congratulations on your return to the real world.] Xiao Qi said in his mind after Li Luo’s consciousness had cleared up.
Li Luo’s mind still had the image of Elvis’ expression when he looked at him before leaving. Closing his eyes, he asked: “Xiao Qi, how long will I have to stay in the real world? Before I can enter the next?”
[Three days. The host must stay here for three days. After that, we can start the space jump,] Xiao Qi replied.
“Three days…” Li Luo sat up from the bed. Unlike the last time he turned from the previous world, he was actually looking forward to enter the next. He wanted to see whether his speculations were right or wrong, though he heavily suspected them to be right.
That the protagonist of the next world would be exactly the person he was looking for.
As Li Luo thought about it some more, they would see each other again after three days. This separated was actually not long.
It’s just that, when they could meet again, his lover might not recognize him.
Even if he didn’t remember, he’d fallen in love with him in the last two worlds though. He would certainly be with him again in the next.
With these thoughts in his mind, Li Luo wasn’t very worried. Now that he was back to real world, he should deal with the matters here first.
After washing his face and rinsing his mouth, Li Luo went downstairs to eat although he had returned at the very same time he left before.
He had lived in another world for more than a hundred years. Being back in the real world made him somewhat uncomfortable but with the morning routine, Li Luo could adapt to the current living environment again.
After all, he had lived in this world for more than twenty years. He still had some memories.
After Li Luo returned to his room, he immediately turned on his computer.
Seeing the familiar interface appear before his eyes, Li Luo almost wanted to hug the computer and kiss it a few times.
If he had to say what he missed most in the Saint Magus’ world, then it would definitely be the different kinds of electronic products, TV dramas, novels, and anime in this life.
There were three days of time now and, except for tomorrow where he planned to visit Jin Chenji, he’d decided to spend it on the internet.
Of course——before that, he still needed to finish his writing first. _(:3」∠)_ After all, this was how he earned the income for his future living expenses in this world.
But after spending more than a century in the last world, he’d forgotten the contents of his new book.
Li Luo fumbled to open his own website and entered in several passwords based off his vague memories. After unlocking them, he entered the background of the author.
Looking at the existing drafts, he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that there were three of four chapters below. Even if he doesn’t come out now, he’d be able to survive for the time being.
Li Luo immediately concentrated. He dug out the synopsis of the story that he had written before and carefully read it several times before looking at the drafts of content in front of him.
If there was one thing to be said after coming back from the magic world, it was that he’d also gained something. His memory was now inexplicable much better than before.
He was still unable to remember all the contents in his mind after a rapid quick read but, after he looked at it roughly, he could remember most of the content. He also clearly understood the context in his heart.
This was something he couldn’t do before. Moreover, after look at the synopsis he had written before, a new plot quickly emerged in Li Luo’s mind.
Li Luo faced the blank document and, for an hour, moved his fingers as if he was flaying the surface of the keyboard. In one breath, he had written three chapters.
He checked it one more time, to make sure there was nothing wrong and that it connected naturally with the previous chapter, before placing the new chapters under the previous existing draft.
Then, Li Luo opened the folder containing his collection of TV dramas and chose one of his favorites to play. After watching two or three episodes, he habitually opened his own work and looked at the reader’s comments.
After all, writing novels wasn’t just a matter of one’s skill. If he wanted to eat rice, the reader was his god. If there was no reader’s support, he’d be starving.
And so, every time that Li Luo posted his writing, he had to look at the reader’s reaction. If they didn’t like one scene, he’d try to shorten this arc as much as possible. If he’d encountered something that the readers liked, he’d write a longer arc. Of course, there was a reasonable limit to which he could do so, it had to be natural.
As soon as he opened the comments area, Li Luo saw that the comments were all filled with similar content.
[Not Wear Pants was Good and Cool]:
The front row was surrounded by thick lines of the local tycoon.
[All Beauties in the World Love Me]:
Kneel and wait for the local tycoon’s appearance! By the way, local tycoon, are you running short of male friends? When I went to college, I would have very likely to driven that kind of car.
[Old Paper Bragging was the First Under Heaven]:
Kneel and wait for the local tycoon +1
[Hold Trace Prince Charming]:
I’m just standing in a circle to look at the local tycoon, everyone give me a place ah, one by one, don’t squeeze!
……
Local tycoon?! Who was it?
Li Luo wrinkled his brows. As he slowly read over the comments, the memories in his brain constantly flashed. When he swept a glance at the top list of names on his original book, and saw the leading name on the very top, he finally remembered.
Cloud Passed Heavy Boat.
Every Saturday, this person would give a tip of 10,000 pieces of Hua Country currency. Since Li Luo graduated and started writing novels at home, he had never stopped tipping even once.
Li Luo naturally added this enthusiastic person that supported his food and clothes. Not only did they tip a reward on a fixed day of each week, the words they said were very concise and he’d tip several times more on holidays.
Every time Li Luo said several sentences of gratitude, they would respond to him in short words. But Li Luo felt an inexplicable sense of security from this person.
Every time he encountered something unhappy, Li Luo would talk about it with Cloud Passed Heavy Boat.
After they replied a few words to him, Li Luo would have a realization in less than half an hour later.
Li Luo remembered that he hadn’t contacted the man before he left the real world. It’d been a week since he last talked to him and Li Luo was ready to find him for a chat.
He opened his own chat channel, only to find that the status of Cloud Passed Heavy Boat was gray. Li Luo felt somewhat disappointed as he minimized the channel and continued to watch his dramas.
Around midnight, Li Luo double checked his chat channel once more but the status of Cloud Passed Heavy Boat was still gray.
Before going to sleep, he checked once again. Seeing that the other person was still absent, he turned off all the programs on his computer and went to bed.
