Witch, I'm really not the Deep Sea Ancient God!

Chapter 48: Chapter 37: The Newspaper and Miss Miracle



"Call me boss? Here for a meal?"

"As long as you're not here to eat me," Chen Qi replied helplessly, turning to look at the person behind him.

It was a young woman with wet, golden short hair, dressed in a neat and professional outfit.

On her waist, she carried a heavy vintage-style camera and a revolver.

Both the pricey camera at her hip and the gold-edged revolver indicated her high social status.

A wealthy individual, Chen Qi sized her up from head to toe.

Overall, she was a girl with a rather heroic look, and her most striking feature had to be those bright golden eyes.

However, her eyes looked somewhat distracted due to her recent fall into water and her hunger, though they usually shone like stars.

Camera? Reporter? Photographer? Chen Qi curiously asked,

"Um, who are you?"

At Chen Qi's question, the golden-haired woman's eyes suddenly sparkled, and she burst into exuberant energy as if triggered:

"Dove Times' lead gold-medal journalist, two-time news achievement award winner at Moonstone City, highest-paid reporter and news writer, Pelu Larn.

Of course, you can call me by my professional nickname—Miracle Reporter!"

Pelu?

Miracle?

Chen Qi was not good at remembering names, but when he heard 'Miracle Reporter,' a memory instantly surged through his mind.

She seemed to be an actual celebrity!

Previously, whether it was An, the Black-eyed Captain, or the slightly famous Little Crow, they were all relatively niche characters in the entire gaming forum.

But now, he was dealing with a star whose fame surpassed even that of Witches, with countless titles to her name!

King of Trouble, Fearless One, Shell Country Shield, one of the Three Greats of Shell Country Royal University, cheapest informant, with enemies all over, Miracle Reporter Pelu Larn!

Chen Qi was secretly shocked.

Some people are remembered by players for their looks, their physique, their character that attracts players, or their brilliant plot performances.

Yet as one of the most famous characters in the Witch Sea segment, Miracle Reporter Pelu Larn did not rely on any of these; it was her incomparable presence!

As a journalist, she was almost always on the move, riding her little white dove, heading to every major event in Witch Sea!

In almost any significant event, one could spot this reporter.

Additionally, with her extremely straightforward and explosive trouble-making skills, she left a deep impression on everyone.

Take for example her background story in Moonstone City about a corrupt merchant siphoning railway funds.

Normally, such a case would require investigating every detail of the corruption, covertly dealing with various powers, and gathering evidence behind the scenes.

However, she directly sneaked into the merchant's mansion, caught him while having an affair, and snapped compromising photos of him.

She then used these photos to threaten him, stuffed a microphone in his mouth, and forced a confession out of him!

As a seasoned individual, the merchant was not easily coerced into confessing.

He even said that if she had the guts to spread the photos around town, it would actually excite him more.

Then, a gun was pointed at the merchant's head.

By threatening the merchant, along with her stealthy skills, she successfully found the evidence hidden in his home and managed to turn an ordinary news story into a sensational headline that rocked Moonstone City in just one day!

In short, she was a chaotic journalist who would stop at nothing for the sales of her newspaper!

Chen Qi looked again at the drenched kitten in front of him.

The Pelu before him, unlike the scholarly journalist in spectacles on her newspaper, was a stark contrast.

A classic case of photogenic deceit.

At that moment, Pelu's stomach growled and she asked weakly,

"So… boss, is this restaurant open? I've been running around all day and am about to starve..."

"Yeah, it's open."

Chen Qi entered the boat house, tidying up the kitchen.

He might as well entertain the guest.

This was a significant figure with strong trouble-making skills; getting involved with her would likely bring some minor troubles.

But in Moonstone City, many reporters had a network of information even broader than that of the informants.

They roamed every part of the city, trying all means to gather material for big news.

And as Moonstone City's most famous reporter, Pelu also knew a lot of information and had a large number of informants.

And most importantly, unlike the mysterious and enigmatic informants, she was talkative, a blabbermouth.

A lot of the expensive information she could let slip easily.

Therefore, among the players, she had the titles of 'cheapest informant' and 'Riddle Informant Slayer.'

If you wanted information, seeking her out was a very good choice.

Of course, she constantly flitted around, and finding her depended on a bit of luck.

Chen Qi walked into the boat house and opened the refrigerator:

"What would you like to eat?"

Pelu entered the boat house, looked at his modestly stocked fridge, and said:

"This boat house is so small. And only this much food? And I don't even like any of these ingredients. Are you really a chef? Can you even cook properly?"

The poor decoration and limited food made Pelu furrow her brow, but given her hunger, she'd have to make do.

"I can handle it."

Being underestimated in cooking, Chen Qi held back his urge to retort.

On the surface, Pelu's spiritual power seemed very weak, just a Transcendent of the First Order who was a bit bold and had strong backing.
