Cthulhu Fantasy : I Am The Great Old One

"Kang Zi, wake up."    

"Eh?"    

In the small private room of the internet cafe, Du Kang shook his head and looked up.    

"Fatty, what's up?" Du Kang rubbed his sleepy eyes. "Yang Zi and the others are here?"    

"What else can it be?" The broad-minded and fat teenager wearing a large T-shirt pointed at the screen in front of Du Kang. "Why are you sleeping while playing?"    

Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar picture of League of Legends' settlement on the screen, Du Kang had some impression.    

Tomorrow was League of Legends' local internet cafe competition. He came here to have the final training with his friends.    

He heard that after winning the first place, he would get eight hundred dollars. Even if the five of them split the points, he would get one hundred and sixty. That was already quite a lot.    

"It's nothing."    

Du Kang waved his hand at his friends of the same age.    

"I didn't sleep well last night. I was sleepy during the day."    

"Don't be sleepy tomorrow." Fatty took off the headphones on his head. "The whole team is pointing at you. If you screw up, it will all be over."    

Looking at Fatty's serious expression, Du Kang felt a little helpless and touched.    

He knew that his gaming skills were actually the lowest among them. Even Fatty, who only played supporting roles, was much better than him. However, everyone still gave him the position to play the field, especially when there were other candidates.    

This was trust.    

"Got it, there won't be any trouble tomorrow"    

Du Kang nodded and put on his headphones.    

"Wait, kang Zi." Fatty patted Du Kang's shoulder. "It's your turn to buy water."    

"Hmm?" Du Kang paused for a moment, then quickly took off his headphones. "Yes, yes, it's my turn."    

Other than some special days when he went out to play with his friends, he basically took turns to pay. For things like going online, although he would pay for his own money, he still took turns to buy drinks.    

"Oh right, fatty." Du Kang stood up and opened the door to the private room. "What's your break this time?"    

What appeared in front of him was not the familiar internet cafe lobby, but the entrance to his courtyard.    

Why...    

Du Kang quickly turned his head and found that the room behind him was not an internet cafe room, but the courtyard of his hometown.    

He had also become taller.    

What was going on...    

Creak -    

A knife was handed in from the door.    

"Wh..."    

Du Kang subconsciously avoided it. The sharp knife only managed to cut through Du Kang's clothes and left a line of blood on his abdomen.    

"Tao Zi?" Du Kang suddenly grabbed the wrist of the attacker. "What are you doing?"    

"Du Kang! Why didn't you say something for me?" The attacker struggled, "Why did you force me to die!"    

" Tao Zi, you're f * cking crazy! " Du Kang twisted the dagger in his opponent's hand. "Pay back what you owe! How can I speak up for you! We are also trying to think of a way to help you if you have any difficulties! Don't be stupid..."    

" You clearly know everything! " The attacker took out another dagger from his pocket, "You want to f * cking force me to death!"    

The dagger stabbed out.    

Puchi -    

Du Kang, who had lost too much blood, fell to the ground. He used the last of his strength to press the three numbers "120" on the old black and white screen phone.    

In the ambulance, Du Kang was lying on the stretcher, quietly listening to the siren that belonged solely to the ambulance.    

Maybe I can't last this time... hmm?    

The piercing siren had disappeared without him knowing when. He had changed from lying down to sitting, and the wound on his abdomen had disappeared without a trace.    

Where... am I?    

"Sigh. Sigh." The taxi driver in the front seat called Du Kang twice, "We're here."    

Oh...    

Du Kang remembered that he was here to raise the hospitalization fees for his mother.    

After paying for the car, Du Kang got out of the car and walked towards an office building.    

"Kang Zi, you have been with me for a few years." One of them wore a black suit. A man in a black suit, dressed like a business elite sighed, "You really want to?"    

"Brother Qiang, you know what my current situation is."    

Du Kang, who was kneeling on the ground, smiled bitterly.    

"I have no choice."    

"You..."    

The man called Brother Qiang lit a cigarette.    

"Alright, tell me, how much is it?"    

How much...    

Du Kang recalled that it was not a small amount, but he found that the floor in his line of sight had disappeared and was replaced by the small courtyard of the old residence.    

What is going on...    

"Kang Zi." The man called Brother Qiang threw down the cigarette in his hand, "Pay back your debts."    

How could it be...    

Du Kang was stunned when he saw the people who had barged into his house.    

"Brother Qiang, give me some face." Du Kang hurriedly pushed those people out. "The old man in the house happened to be fine. He can't be frightened. If there's anything, let's go out and talk."    

"You..."    

The man called Brother Qiang gave Du Kang a deep look.    

"Come out and say it."    

...    

"Thank you, brother Qiang." Du Kang tactfully took a cigarette from Brother Qiang and said, "Brother Qiang, didn't we agree to settle the accounts at the end of the year? It has only been less than two months, why is it..."    

"Kang Zi, it's not that I don't want to give you face." Brother Qiang shook his head. He shook his head, "You know about that case a few days ago. It scared the investors up there, and they wanted to take the money back. It's hard for me to do it too "    

" Brother Qiang, can't we wait for a few months? " Du Kang put that "soft China" in his ear and said, "You also know my salary now... But in the summer, I will go out and set up a barbecue stall like last year, and I will definitely be able to make money back..."    

"Kang Zi, what do you want to do? I don't care. " Brother Qiang shook his head. "I have to fill in my opening."    

"Brother Qiang..."    

Du Kang took off his cigarette, lit it silently, and took a puff.    

"You are forcing me to die..."    

"Kang Zi, don't blame big brother." The man who was called Brother Qiang sighed, "The hole can't be filled, I am the one who died."    

"We'll come back next week. Kang Zi, do as you see fit."    

Brother Qiang waved at the burly men.    

"Let's go!"    

Du Kang stood there in a daze for a long time as he watched the departing figures.    

Can't you guys give me a chance... hmm?    

The figures in front of him disappeared and were replaced. He was a man with glasses.    

"Here, your salary for this month."    

The man handed over a few red bills.    

One... two... ten.    

Du Kang's hand paused.    

"You didn't even sell your insurance this month. Deducting 200 yuan." The man seemed to have noticed Du Kang's abnormality and explained, "Alright, let's go."    

Du Kang didn't say anything. He just quietly put the money into his pocket.    

He put it next to the folding knife.    

When he returned home muddle-headed, Du Kang collapsed on the bed and fell asleep in a daze.    

He was tired.    

...    

"Hm?"    

After a long sleep, Du Kang woke up from a strange bed.    

He seemed to have had a lot of dreams just now... this sleep was a bit tiring.    

Looking at the unfamiliar bed, Du Kang patted his muddle-headed head and some memories surfaced in his mind.    

Those messy and messy problems were finally resolved. His mother's health had improved. Now, he was working with his friends, wanting to do some business. To fight for his future.    

"You're actually not as bad as you think you are, I believe you"    

This was what Du Kang's best friend had told him. He still remembered it in his heart.    

It was also because of this that he remembered it. From a bastard to a man.    

This kindness from a friend to him was almost equivalent to saving his life.    

Thus, after knowing that his friend wanted to start a business, Du Kang responded to his friend's invitation and came to this unfamiliar city.    

Of course, he had to pay back the favor with his life.    

His career was on the right track step by step. Although it was a little tiring, Du Kang felt that his life was very fulfilling.    

Because he was fighting for the future.    

Du Kang picked up the clothes from the bed and put them on himself.    

He remembered there was a meeting today... Hmm?    

Du Kang suddenly realized that his body, which he had not trained for a long time, was full of energy.    

It was like he could kill a cow with one punch.    

How could this be...    

Du Kang looked at his hands in disbelief.    

What appeared in front of Du Kang was a pair of sharp limbs.
