Immortal in Horror Game: She is the Fortune Teller!-Chapter 171 - 170: Gorgeous Cage 7 (Bonus - )
Josh had nothing to hide, and smiled: "No, I’m from another space-time."
Rob’s eyes were filled with shock: "Parallel universe?"
Josh thought for a moment: "Sort of, but not entirely accurate. I don’t know how to explain it."
Rob looked at her with envy: "That’s amazing."
He didn’t expect Josh to trust him so much, confiding such an important secret, making him feel as if they were very close friends.
Only close friends would share their most hidden secrets with each other.
Josh patted his shoulder: "We want to defeat this monster; we must have firm beliefs. What about you? Why did you lose?"
Maybe it was the loneliness of the late-night wind, or maybe it was Josh’s unreserved gaze that moved him, but Rob couldn’t help wanting to reveal the secrets in his heart.
He raised his hand to turn off the camera in his live streaming room and lowered his head: "That monster grasps my childhood and family. You could tell from the first time you saw me, right? I’m a sissy."
Seeing this, Josh also turned off the camera in her live streaming room and then said, "’Sissy’ isn’t a derogatory term to me, it’s an adjective."
Rob gave a small smile and matched her serious gaze: "I think I understand a bit why the captain is so close to you."
Josh: "?"
Rob sighed, leaning back with his hands supporting the floor, gazing at the splendid starry sky, and said softly: "Actually, I have gender identity issues. Since I was born, my mother raised me as a girl."
Josh frowned slightly: "Why did she do that?"
Rob recalled that dark memory: "Because I’m my father’s illegitimate son, my mother was a prostitute, and only by making me more valuable could she enter that family and gain the wealth she desired."
Josh pressed her lips together, unsure of what to say.
Rob continued: "Ever since I can remember, my mother taught me how to please men, how to make them happy."
"When I turned eighteen, my mother and father dressed me up like a little princess, saying they were going to cut a birthday cake for me. That was the happiest day of my life; the way everyone looked at me made me feel like the happiest person in the world."
"That night, I was packaged as a gift and sent to a nobleman..."
Rob looked at the sky, his eyes becoming distant...
"Princess Rob, do you remember mommy’s words?" The woman laughed gently, stroking her proud child.
She seemed to be nearing middle age, but her charm was still evident, showing that she was a great beauty in her youth.
The young Rob nodded with a smile: "I remember! Hide in this big box and get sent to Uncle Leo. When he opens the box, I’ll pounce on him and give him a fright! Then he’ll give me the most expensive gift!"
The woman laughed: "My good baby is so smart!"
Rob hid in the box, which was sealed with a large ribbon.
He was carried onto a car by the servants at home and sent to another luxurious noble villa.
Rob’s face was filled with a look of expectation as he quietly awaited the uncle who loved him the most, Leon.
After some time, the box was placed in the room.
The room’s décor was luxurious, with a soft carpet, a large and comfortable bed, petals scattered across the floor, and a tall table with opened wine and roses placed beside it.
Footsteps gradually approached, and Rob silently grinned, ready to spring.
Soon, the sound of untying the ribbon was heard above.
The box was opened a crack, and soft light streamed in.
Seizing the opportunity, Rob flipped open the lid and jumped into the arms of the middle-aged man: "Uncle Leon!"
The middle-aged man looked about the same age as his father, with a beard and deep-set, gentlemanly gray eyes beneath a prominent brow.
Very refined.
Rob laughed innocently, extending his arms out in front of him, proudly saying in response to the man’s astonished gaze: "Surprised you, didn’t I? Today is my 18th birthday, Uncle Leon, what gift are you going to give me?"
Leon’s eyes flickered momentarily: "So my little Rob is already grown up."
Rob nodded, smiling, as he lowered his head to untie the string around his ankles, speaking without raising his head: "You didn’t remember my birthday, so now I want two birthday gifts..."
He spoke to himself, not noticing the shadow pressing down...
The beautiful young boy died on the night of his eighteenth birthday celebration.
Afterward, Duke Leon had a delicate new pet by his side.
Josh found it hard to breathe; she struggled to maintain her composure: "And then?"
Rob shrugged: "Then I was passed around until I was bored, sold to an underground pet market, and once I escaped, I met the captain, who brought me back to the Mysterious Guild."
Josh pressed her lips together: "So that’s why you can’t defeat that monster?"
Rob nodded, smiling a bit dejectedly: "Do you think I’m dirty...? Actually, people like me..."
Josh recalled his earlier behavior, curious: "So last night you insisted on sleeping next to me because of this?"
Rob couldn’t really explain on the live stream
His mental illness had never really improved, and seeing the mother and child next door eating people’s blood-soaked buns for money the previous day, he couldn’t control his emotions.
Every time he had an episode, he obsessively wanted to sleep next to someone to give himself the illusion of being cared for and loved as a child by his mother.
Previously, in the guild, it was the psychologist sister who took care of him during episodes.
Later, he and the captain inadvertently entered this instance, and because he had an episode, the captain took him out admitting defeat.
The captain said he couldn’t win either, just to comfort him.
He dragged the team down.
"I’m no better," Josh suddenly said.
Rob looked at her blankly.
Josh smiled at him: "You didn’t think that someone from Garbage Star was clean, did you?"
Rob stared at her in surprise: "You wouldn’t..."
Josh shrugged: "People from Garbage Star don’t have vile intentions like that. Every day, we just try our best to survive one more day."
She smiled slightly: "It’s just that, to survive when I was young, I did so many embarrassing things. Running around naked, barking like a dog, drinking urine, those were everyday occurrences. When I was about to starve, I even ate raw meat."
"Later, I was brought back to the Augustine family and thought that as long as I wore a white dress and stood there, someone would come to love me. But in the end, they avoided me like the plague, restricted my actions, forbade me from dining at the table, or leaving the house."
Josh squinted, easily recalling events from thousands of years ago before she had traveled to the Cultivation World: "When I was first brought back to the Augustine family, they even put a dog collar around my neck and chained me in the yard for a week. They said it was to let me get used to the environment and remove the stench brought from Garbage Star."
