Bored Gamer in Other Worlds

"Hmmm... I need to improvise." Our bored gamer said when the pills were almost ready. The usual process at this step was to put the pill on a special container that was spherical in shape.

There it would become solidified with ease. This procedure usually took a few minutes to finish.

But with the One Hundred and One Secrets of Alchemy that became the cheat code of our very own protagonist in this realm, he has a much better approach than the majority of his peers.

"DING!" Clark took a long wooden instrument with a pointed tip. He was the one who made the thing and so he knew how to use it to his greatest benefit.

"TAP!"

"TAP!"

"TAP!" Before long, our good gamer's hands became busy. He would use this sharpened makeshift spear to mix and segregate the ingredients on the cauldron.

If a pill master was here, he would definitely notice how this small trick was enough to make a perfect pill in motion. But the difficulty of this task was absolutely unreal.

One should know that Clark was cooking not one pill but one hundred fifty Skin Cleansing Pills all at the same time. Just a single misstep and he would lose them all in consequence.

But how could our good gamer make such a newbie mistake?

"DING!"

"DING!"

"DING!" One by one, the pills jumped from the cauldron and unto the table nearby.

No spherical containers were needed since they were already hard and ready to eat with the superb mixing technique that our bored gamer had shown in the making of these pills.

"All done!" Clark announced happily. From start to finish, he only took a little less than one hour in completing his quest.

Ye Ming would have easily worked for at least 12 hours to copy this feat. But our bored gamer was of course different from the original owner of this body.

"Now I've got to think of a hobby to keep me excited in my free time." Our good gamer sighed.

"Or maybe not." Clark shook his head to deny this impulsiveness. He would most likely shine too bright outside and that would only bring unwanted attention to himself.

Thus, it was better to be careful as always.

"Brother Ye Ming! Are you here?" A loud voice shouted from outside. The rich disciples had maidservants but alas, Ye Ming could not afford to hire such a luxurious perk inside the sect.

Since Clark has already finished his work, he has time to waste in talking with strangers. He wiped the sweat on his face and went out to meet his guest.

'Geng Ju?' Our bored gamer said inside when he finally saw who came to visit him.

"So the news is really true. You came back. I'm so happy to see you again, Brother Ye Ming." Geng Ju lied with a straight face.

If he could, he would have murdered our very own protagonist himself.

"Yes. I was lucky, Brother Geng Ju." Clark smiled but he had a bigger smile in secret. Though Geng Ju tried to hide it but his murderous intentions were palpable in the air.

The past Ye Ming was too inexperienced and too trusting to notice these subtle clues of course.

'So I have come face to face with this body's killer. Or at least the mastermind behind the plot.' Our bored gamer concluded inside.

The only clue he got from Ye Ming's memory were the words of his killers.

"You should better keep a handle on your dick in the afterlife, boy." One of the masked murderers said while his friends were busy torturing him in various painful methods.

Ye Ming led an honest and innocent life. Unfortunately, he was met with a dire end. This world was so random in that aspect.

"If you would like to gather alchemy materials again outside, you only need to tell me brother. I would be more than willing to lend you two of my men to serve as your bodyguards on the trip."

Geng Ju offered with a dark plan in mind.

"Thank you for the offer, Brother Geng Ju. I will surely keep that in mind." Clark replied but it was clear that he was noncommittal in his words.

It was easy to see that the recent incident had put a great trauma in his heart. Our bored gamer really knew how to act well.

He just did not realize how thick the face of Geng Ju truly was.

"So how about tomorrow, Brother Ye Ming?"

"Should I send my men here to report to you?" Geng Ju asked one after another. He would take matters in his own hands and be the one to end the life of our bored gamer outside the sect.

"I don't know, Brother Geng Ju. But... maybe not for a long while. I should go back inside. I need to finish concocting my pills. Thank you for the visit, Brother Geng Ju."

Clark stuttered in fear and he visibly shivered while creating his retort of lies in thin air. Geng Ju could easily conclude that our good gamer was already traumatized because of the experience.

'Fuck this stupid and cowardly dog!' In the end, Geng Ju could only leave without any real development in what he wanted.

Unfortunately for him, he already got into the radar of our avid gamer.

"If i finish my preparation in this world, Geng Ju would be on the list of the first ones to die." Clark noted with great satisfaction. After that, he slept and played chess on his lonesome.

One hundred fifty Skin Cleansing Pills were delivered at 6 in the evening.

This was usually the time when Ye Ming did this chore and our bored gamer was only copying Ye Ming's behavior to a tee. Clark also got 150 gold coins in his effort.

* * *

Time was unstoppable and so more than a month after having this repeated schedule, our bored gamer could finally begin his plans.

"I got 5,400 gold coins in me. This would be more than enough to purchase all the ingredients in the pill that I wish to make." Clark grinned and he was very excited for the future.
