After a pause, Bailey pressed. [Leeanne, why are you taking so long to reply? What, you’re too scared to show your face. cheating?]

Emmett snapped, [I’ve been roasting you for ages. Are you ever going to stop?]

Leeanne said. [Looking for me? Sorry, the merman prince and I were having a private chat for quite a while, so I didn’t chance to check the chat channel. Bailey, where exactly did I cheat?]

Bailey asked, [Did you really rely on your own skills? Is your singing actually that good? You only won because of your p

Leeanne scoffed. [Isn’t my pet mine to begin with? If my pet wins, doesn’t that mean I win too? My pet took down the be and I’m the one who gets the spoils. Are you seriously going to get mad at that and say that’s unfair?]

Her words hit home, and everyone in the game could totally relate.

[That’s right, the pet belongs to Leeanne! I don’t get why Bailey can’t wrap her head around it.]

[Bailey’s been causing drama in the chat for ages. She’s pretty young, so I didn’t want to say anything, but Callum, could discipline her a bit?]

[My Bucky has saved me more than once. Is someone going to say that’s unfair and judge me, too? That’d be crazy!]

[Now that you put it that way, Bailey really is being unreasonable.]

[Alright, girl, stop fussing and get some rest!]

Bailey was so angry that tears streamed down her face. [Why? It’s just not fair! Not fair! Not fair!]

After a pause, she added, [Leeanne didn’t win by her own ability. She cheated.]

Leeanne retorted, [Why wouldn’t that count as my own ability? Wasn’t I the one who caught and raised my pet?]

She usually couldn’t be bothered to argue about stuff like this, but Bailey was just too much this time.

Emmett added, [If you’re so tough, Bailey, go and complain to the merman prince. Seriously, you’ve got issues!]

Callum had been feeling uneasy for a while, so he hurried to tell Bailey, “Bailey, stop making a scene. We really did lose.”

Bailey spun around and shouted, “Why are you taking their side too?”

Tears streamed down her face as she cried, “You’ve never helped me! You’ve never helped Mom or me!”

Callum’s expression changed dramatically.

After a moment, he said with difficulty, “I’m sorry, Bailey. I promise I’ll try harder.”

Bailey wiped away her tears, her expression turning icy. “No need I’ll handle it myself.”

With Bailey finally quiet in the chat, everyone went back to their conversations. Most people were worried the prince might

turn evil.

Leeanne pulled out her purple shell, wondering how to track down the merman prince’s sister, when suddenly, she received a private message from a stranger.

It was from Valentine. [Leeanne, we’ve both been set up!]

Leeanne asked, [You mean the hurricane and those man–eating sharks?]

Valentine replied, [Yeah, I barely managed to get away, and now I finally have time to tell you. Open your profile and check your info!]

Leeanne pulled up her profile and saw the following content.

Name: Leeanne Dillion

Age: 24

Strength: 17+ 5+2

Agility: 20 + 5

Constitution: 17 + 5 + 3

Poison Resistance: 10

Class: None

Skills: Basic Trapmaking, Basic Pharmacology.

Debuff: Bad Luck (Bad Luck Card). Time Remaining: 50 minutes.

‘Wait, there’s a new line at the bottom, introducing a debuff, Leeanne thought. ‘And the debuff is Bad Luck. It’s still got 50

minutes left.

“This is definitely the effect of the Bad Luck Card. No wonder!‘

She realized what the Bad Luck Card would do the moment she got it, but things were so hectic. She had to rush to the Cloudship Song Gala and didn’t have time to deal with it.

She received the debuff without any notification from the system or the game. It was applied silently. Only by opening her personal profile and looking carefully could she discover this negative effect.

Most players wouldn’t even catch it.

As for who used the Bad Luck Card on her, it was obvious. ‘It has to be Bailey, Leeanne thought. ‘She is the only one who would benefit!‘

Leeanne’s gaze turned chilly, thinking, ‘This girl is far too vicious. Given her age, I thought she was only being competitive in a normal way, but I never expected her to strike so ruthlessly. I surely need to get back at her!

She pulled out her Bad Luck Card, swiped her finger across it, and a tiny pop–up appeared. [Please name the target for the Bad Luck Card.]

“Bailey,” Leeanne blurted out.

Bad Luck Card then showed, [There’s only one Bailey in this district. Confirm use?]

Leeanne replied, “Yes.”

The Bad Luck Card flashed, sending out a quick beam that disappeared right away. It had taken effect.

Leeanne sneered. With just one day to track down the merman prince’s sister, she’d let the Bad Luck Card do the dirty work and settle the score for her, at least for now.

She had just used the Bad Luck Card when Emmett sent her a private message. [Leeanne, hurry up and check the chat

channel! There’s some juicy drama going down.]

Leeanne replied, [We’re in a survival game, and you’re still here gossiping?]

Emmett said, [Hey, gotta find some fun in the chaos, right? Hurry up, Bailey and Valentine are going at it.]

Leeanne pulled up the chat window, and sure enough, Valentine was already calling Bailey out.

Valentine said, [Bailey, you used the Bad Luck Card on Leeanne and me so we couldn’t make it to the Cloudship Song Gal: didn’t you?]

Bailey asked, [Got any proof?]

Valentine posted a screenshot of his profile, just the last part, and sneered. [So tell me, who else could use such a rare Bad Luck Card, and time it perfectly to hit us right during the three hours of the Cloudship Song Gala?

[Who stands to gain from this? Who benefits?]

Bailey scoffed, [You’ve scammed so many people. Could’ve been anyone.]

[What about Leeanne?] Valentine asked.

Bailey replied, [She’s got plenty of enemies, too!]

[So you knew she got hit with the Bad Luck Card, too?] Valentine asked.

Bailey replied, [Just guessing!]

Valentine sneered, [Seriously, everyone, think about it. Who do you think could’ve used the Bad Luck Card on Leeanne and me?]
