Bored Gamer in Other Worlds

"HAHAHA! Look at this fool! How can you sing without even so much as a guitar in your hands?! This shows a great deal of unprofessionalism! Newbies these days!

Fucking wanna be singers!" A man commented at first as he looked at one of the trending videos in Display.

This particular vid already got more than a million views in 7 hours since it was posted.

"I can still remember yesterday."

"When love meant something more than just a play."

"But time proved heartless for us today."

"I see a memory and love astray."

"And yet the crazy part of me still says..."

"I wish you were mine again."

.

..

...

But when the lyrics flowed and the singer's clear voice started to deliver its message, the man online could not help but get lost in the feelings that came back to his mind.

Of a long forgotten romance back when he was still young. A time when he still believed that love was pure and easy to get.

Unfortunately, this was only the sad misconception of his naivety and innocence. Most who fell in love also got burned in the process.

This was just the way life went in this very imperfect world.

"This fucking song." The man online cursed as he wiped his tears and continued to listen to this song. He did not stop there and crushed that replay button over and over again.

This experience was not rare since it was shared by many souls who were luckless in love.

"I'm a big guy and yet I could not help but cry to this song! I have the same fate as the singer!"

"Nothing is more sadder than a love that was shared but was lost in some inexplicable circumstances. Please don't feel bad, Albert. I'm here and I love you so much!"

"I did not know that Albert Hayes could sing. His movies were bad but the same could not be said to this song at all. A new fan here."

"I can't believe 900 people gave this video a thumbs down! Maybe they should have their ears checked!"

...

The comments of the people on the internet were massive. But most of them have indeed appreciated the music of our very own protagonist.

"Ahhhh... My stomach is killing me!" Our bored gamer complained as he woke up early in the morning.

He would have loved to sleep some more but his grumbling belly would simply not let him. Clark also noticed that he was swimming in black stinky mucus.

"Hehehe. I guess I got positive results in the end." Our good gamer grinned like a fool and hastily checked his character sheet. After that, he heard several notifications.

"DING!"

"Hmmm... If my calculations is right, i would need at least 10 billion new fans from level 9 to 10. This would be a great challenge indeed."

Our bored gamer said after looking inside at the changes of his body.

He could already use the spiritual sense of a cultivator and at the same time, reacquaint himself with the myriad paths of the great daos.

Clark paused to remember how much the current population of this world was and smiled when he got the answer.

"With more than 500 billion souls on this planet, the task to reach the apex of power here is very much doable for me."

Our bored gamer nodded once or twice before he took a quick shower, packed what little thing he had in the room, and fed himself like a king. Clark finished five tables worth of food.

"Here's the bill, Sir." A beautiful waitress gave the receipt with shocked eyes. She had never seen someone eat this much in her life.

"More than five thousand diamond blyders?" Our bored gamer could not help but shake his head when he saw this huge amount.

One should know that the money he got left on him was only more or less 10,000 diamond blyders. Albert Hayes was broke because of the divorce.

It was good that he did not have any children with his wife or else he could not have given child support for them.

'I need to get more money fast.' Clark sighed as he counted a few paper currency on the table.

The great thing was that it did not take him long to think about the many ways to solve this particular problem. Our bored gamer left this cheap hotel with a spring in his steps.

He walked and when he got to the next turn, he vanished shortly thereafter with no one there to witness what he did.

Even the many city cameras in all corners were blind to this magical phenomenon.

"DING!" When Clark reappeared, a great misfortune was imminent for somebody else.
