Inside a cave, a man in a tracksuit could be seen. That man was Raul.
He was wearing bear pajamas — if anyone saw him, they'd probably wish they hadn't lived long enough to see him.
Even though it was a cave, the inside was luxurious. Every kind of supply was available; he had basically turned into a NEET.
Of course, we don't count the part-time jobs where he harvested souls.
"I'm watching pictures of demons on social media," he muttered.
Succubi really did have hot bodies… hmm, he quickly erased the impure thoughts from his head."For the love of God, this social media is godless everywhere."
He created a profile for himself; nobles were quite popular online.
Within moments, he had ten thousand followers after posting just one picture.
It was a photo of him in a suit.
The comments, though, were wild.
[i_love_femboys69: The gods are unfair…]
[slayqueen: Uh, I want to try an experiment called "baby-making." Will you help me?]
[catgirls_best: Ah, thank God you're not black, maybe there's still some justice in heaven]
---------->[raul_von_vance: Some parts of me could even make black guys jealous — and yes,i have rights]
He replied to that comment and was showered in likes; people even started asking for proof.....
He thought about posting a shirtless picture, but that would probably be a bad idea after all; he was a servant of a duchy.
Doing that would tarnish the ducal reputation.
"For the love of God, there are stalkers on social media."
Even dragon girls were messaging him now."Actually… having a dragon mommy wouldn't be bad."
He wiped the drool off the corner of his mouth. "There are catgirls too…"
He had to admit, when it came to women, this world was truly blessed.
It was a rich, chaotic world.
He decided to start streaming on EyeTube.There were still five months left before he'd head to the academy.
He was taking care of himself — until a notification popped up on his phone.
[You have been expelled from the Vance family]
"Motherfuckers…"
He changed his name from Raul von Vance to Raul Cainhurst.
Notifications kept coming, so he blocked the Vance family's account.
When he squinted, he could see messages from important people.
He was certain that even the gods used social media — their lives were too boring not to.
Even though he took the Cainhurst surname, it would take time to make it official.
He'd have to go to the Empire for that — but no way.
It was obviously a trap to pull him back. The Emperor must've taken it personally.
"Not my problem," Raul said.
The last time they tried to summon him, he had sent them an ice bear instead.
The chaos was unbelievable.
Of course, the Emperor killed it with a wave of his hand — but Raul knew he'd been pissed.
As for Micah… Raul had a very good plan for that bastard.
One week later.
Raul set up his own PC system.
He really loved this mix of medieval and modern worlds. Even if they were behind in some ways, it was a fun world compared to Earth.
There were guns, for example, but they were useless.
A bullet couldn't even scratch a second-tier swordmaster. The same applied to mages.
To be a soldier, you needed to be at least first-tier.
Most generals were fifth-tier, and the sixth-tier ones were elites — respected across the Empire.
The reason Raul encountered strong people so often was because of the quality of their souls.
The last soul he'd taken, Hankel, hadn't even been first-tier.
Anyway, today he was going to start his first livestream and had already announced it.
A few hours before going live, he uploaded a song on EyeTube and posted a short clip on InstaMoment.
Setting up the scene had taken quite a while.
In the video, a man (Raul) and an unknown girl were standing on a tatami mat, both dressed in training clothes. Raul slowly approached her and shifted into a fighting stance.
Then the music began—
I'm inviting you in
Don't be upset or
You'll lose your balance now
So more and more,
I attract you here to dance with me
Bold and surprising rhythm in the background
Their footwork made it look like they were dancing, their movements unpredictable, flowing forward and back.
As we move our feet
My eyes are on you,
Can see your intention
Your intention really loudly
Now don't get lost in the moment,
Show me what you can do
Yessssss!
Raul caught the girl and slammed her to the ground — she stood back up immediately.
Now step, step, and turn
There's no need to refrain
Just have confidence
Don't let them see you
Decide in the moment,
Don't tear away your eyes
Focus only on what's in you see.
Think only of me.
The girl grabbed Raul the same way, moving back and forth with him — when the timing was right, she held him tightly.
Come, don't be shy
You're perfect,
I'm leading you to the spotlight
And isn't that what you have in your mind
Let me see it here right now
Yessssss!
Raul hit the floor as the song ended...
