The Elden Lord? No! Fujimaru Kaede felt that Liu Yuan was the Elden God!
"Boss, boss, when will I be as handsome as you?"
"Me? At the rate you're going now, maybe in a month! By the way, tell me the location of the resources, and we might have plenty of time, but it's not a lot; we need to hurry."
"Hey, boss, I know a place with dragons, big dragons, fat dragons!"
"Why are we still standing here? Let's go!"
Since she had grabbed onto a big boss's leg, Fujimaru Kaede had to make the most of it and squeeze Liu Yuan dry before letting him go.
But Liu Yuan had other ideas. Since they were already here, why not make some money to buy machines and games?
It would be a waste otherwise. Currently, there were only seven machines in the entire internet cafe, and Minato had already started bringing relatives over to play.
If others followed suit, the machines wouldn't be enough.
Expansion! He needs money for Expansion!
Liu Yuan slashed through monsters like cutting melons in front, while Fujimaru Kaede picked up materials behind.
Ten hours later...
"Darn it, why did it turn out like this!"
Black Jeanne stood on a flying wyvern, fleeing for her life. She had originally intended to take out the savior of humanity and the troublemaker.
But the troublemaker had somehow brought in a big shot, and as soon as he arrived, he started slashing away.
It was fortunate that Gilles had self-sacrificed and summoned even more powerful sea demons; otherwise, she wouldn't have had a chance to escape.
"Damn it! Damn it!"
Black Jeanne felt an endless rage, but this rage had nowhere to vent. She had run far away, and when the flying wyvern landed to rest...
A cute voice greeted her, "Hi~"
The appearance of the cute female voice made Black Jeanne tense up, and flames ignited from where the voice originated.
But with a rolling sound, the flames vanished.
"Hehehe~ A bit off!"
At this moment, Black Jeanne finally saw what creature was making the sound. This creature had a gray, smooth head and wore a strange, bloated skin with a human face.

At the sight of it, she felt a shiver of fear from the depths of her heart.
Feeling Fujimaru Kaede's gaze, which resembled her own, she scratched her head with the staff in her left hand.
"Am I scary like this?"
Black Jeanne's expression already revealed her thoughts.
"Since that's the case, let's fight!"
"Who are you?"
"Me? You can call me the Elden Lord(temp)! Come out, big brother!"
The Mimic Tear was summoned, but its purpose wasn't to fight. Instead, it was to prevent Black Jeanne from escaping. And she was getting closer to Black Jeanne step by step.
Instead of waiting to be defeated, Black Jeanne launched an attack first.
"Roar! My anger!"
As she approached, Fujimaru Kaede rolled to dodge her first attack and then opened her arms as she got up.
"Unescapeable Frenzy!"
Fujimaru Kaede suddenly hugged Black Jeanne's head, and red flames flowed from Fujimaru Kaede's eyes, nose, ears, and mouth into corresponding locations on Black Jeanne's body.
She was born in the flames and should have been fearless of such flames.
However, the moment the Frenzied Flame touched her body, she trembled, her soul burning.
Frenzied Flame, capable of burning everything, not only could it burn gods, but it could also burn impurities.
"Ahhhhh!"
Black Jeanne screamed in agony. She wanted to roll away, but Fujimaru Kaede's hand was like a hydraulic clamp, making her unable to move.
How long Frenzied Flame could be used depended entirely on the releaser. Fujimaru Kaede's pure and firm spirit allowed her to release Frenzied Flame for a full five minutes.
However...
"Ahhhhh! Ah~~"
"?"
From the initial screams of agony, Black Jeanne's tone gradually became tinged with pleasure and joy.
For her, the beginning of Frenzied Flame was indeed painful. But as all her useless anger became nourishment, her soul refined in the blaze, she gradually felt the pleasure from her soul.
This was not the flame of anger; she accepted it, accommodating this flame that could burn down all kinds of barriers and truly make all beings equal under madness.
"???"
Feeling something wrong, Fujimaru Kaede stopped using Frenzied Flame. However, the moment she stopped, Black Jeanne turned around and hugged Fujimaru Kaede's head.
"Give it to me! I want it!!"
"Tsk!"
Fujimaru Kaede glanced at her FP and Frenzied Flame gauge, looked at the eager expression on Black Jeanne's face, and hugged her again.
This was what she wanted, but it had nothing to do with her.
Since Liu Yuan was in this world, Fujimaru Kaede didn't need to spend extra money to send messages.
"Boss! Help! Did you drug me with Frenzied Flame? Why does the guy in front of me seem to want to **** me?"
"No, Frenzied Flame is the flame of an Outer God. It can burn everything, and can even burn the world. But what it burns after you control it depends on you. Only what you truly want to destroy will be completely burned, and the rest won't harm lives....maybe."
"Hey, hey I heard that! What should I do then? If something goes wrong with the burning!"
Liu Yuan thought for a moment before replying, "Isn't this a good thing? This way, you can threaten her! Make her do things for you, and give her what she wants in return."
"Good idea, but boss, don't you think this sounds a bit like..."
"This thing isn't addictive. Even if you lock her up for ten days or half a month, she won't have withdrawal symptoms. This thing is more like freeloading; freeload once and want to freeload countless times. The most uncomfortable thing is that you can't freeload one day. That's all."
After hearing the explanation, Fujimaru Kaede showed a calm expression. The only regret was that because she was wearing the Big White Albinauric Headgear, Black Jeanne couldn't see what she was thinking.
"Wanna do it? Fine!"
Fujimaru Kaede held Black Jeanne in her arms and couldn't help but rub against her.
Black Jeanne had a really good figure, slim where she should be slim, and big where she should be big. As for her own... it didn't matter, as long as she could approach other people who are more beautiful than her.
"But if you want me to do something for you, as long as you do something for me, you can have as much Frenzied Flame as you want."
After testing it and unlike people in the game, she found that Frenzied Flame hardly affected her rationality; the only thing affected was her FP. With a little control, giving Black Jeanne a dozen minutes of Frenzied Flame every day was no problem.
"Really?"
"I have no reason to lie to you!"
Fujimaru Kaede's tone was firm. For her, if she could get a reliable coolie through Frenzied Flame, wouldn't that be a huge gain?
"First task, let's fight! Help me gather materials, treasures, and everything valuable. I will reward you with what you desire."
"Yes, master."
Black Jeanne's face showed a sinister smile
Now that her anger had completely disappeared, what filled her was the desire to burn everything. She needed Frenzied Flame, more Frenzied Flame. However, she couldn't create it herself; she could only obtain it from Fujimaru Kaede.
As long as she had enough Frenzied Flame, her flames could burn down everything.
Burn, burn!
Let Frenzied Flame incinerate everything she disliked!!!
Seeing Black Jeanne's expression, Fujimaru Kaede hesitated. She felt that something was not quite right, but she couldn't pinpoint it.
"Boss, I'm worried this guy might turn on us!"
"What are you afraid of? If it comes to worst, just walk the Frenzied Flame path and become the Lord of Frenzied Flame. Then she'll forever be under your command."
"You have a point."
Since she planned to experience the real version of the game again, playing through the Frenzied Flame path in multiple playthroughs was an optional strategy.
