I Have Yet to Become a Doll Today

Chapter 478: Which One Do You Prefer
The ball rolled around at the foot of the rabbit-headed figure, saying dismissively,

“Oh well~~ I think it’s impossible, protect players or anything, what good would that do for us? Everyone is way too tense~~ Protecting players, that’s just not possible~~”

“An explanation would still be more appropriate.” The rabbit-headed figure calmly scanned the room, “In the game, functional items became severely damaged after being attacked. Some of the broken parts were taken by the player and placed into their own possessions, creating a hidden risk in the game.

So, I temporarily corrected the game, cancelling that player’s reward, and replacing the reward with the broken parts she took away, to prevent the situation from escalating further.

Even though it was extraordinary, in my opinion, such remediation is perfectly justified under critical circumstances.”

“Yeah right, yeah right, I see no issue either~” The ball quickly chimed in, rolling around, “We can’t just let the player take away the parts and give them a reward, too? Wouldn’t that be even worse?”

Manga guy frowned, “The rewards we’ve prepared for the players have restrictions when in use. But those functional items, even if they are just parts, once they leave the original game copy, we cannot predict the ramifications. This is an even bigger risk that may not be fixable! Why didn’t you recover those parts?”

The rabbit-headed figure gave a light laugh, “She put the parts into the dollhouse, how was I supposed to recover them?”

He turned his gaze towards the ball, “One of the dollhouse rules, without the owner’s permission, no one is allowed entrance. That includes the Inspector.”

The ball bounced up immediately, exclaiming, “Are you blaming me now? – I’ve said it before! My dollhouse wasn’t fully debugged! Not fully debugged! Not fully debugged! The game was triggered too soon, I simply didn’t have time to rectify it!”

Difficult games must be matched with corresponding rewards, but such rewards may easily affect the game balance! It’s really hard to juggle all aspects!

The ball hopped aggrievedly on the floor, with a ‘dong’ sound demonstrating its indignation.

“If you must blame someone, blame him! He’s the one who handed out the Gold Coin!”

The ball mumbled towards the gray-robed old man.

Hidden under the cloak hood, the mask of the gray-robed figure made him look like a big mushroom with his bent back.

Under the gaze of the other Inspectors, his back hunched even more, his body shrank smaller under the wide robe, turning into a dry, twisted mushroom.

“A player has entered the game, I must be going…” The gray-robed old man said hoarsely.

The ball jumped three meters high, and in a clear and crisp voice, “You’re evading responsibility!!!”

“Evading…responsibility?” The figure in the gray robe paused, his shriveled body began to swell up, it looked like a bunch of clothes being filled with air, billowing and ballooning.

“When distributing rewards, the system didn’t penalize me!” It emphasized strongly, “I didn’t break any rules, so why should I bear the responsibility?! The rewards I gave out matched the difficulty level of the game! Even though the dollhouse wasn’t fully debugged, it still met the requirements for the rewards within the system’s rules!”

Ball: “Well…that sounds too…”

Before the words ‘shameless’ left his mouth, the rabbit-headed figure gave a slight smile, “Every time we select, towards the end, there are always a few players who step out of line. This time, it’s just that it happened a little earlier. Everyone, there’s no need to be so tense.”

“That sounds about right.” The ball mumbled, “Players who rise to the top too early usually die early. I wonder who will be the final winner this time…”

“The Doctor.” The Puppet Master spoke with a raspy voice.

“That guy huh…” The ball considered, “Yeah, the chances are pretty high.”

He asked the manga guy: “Who do you favor?”

Manga guy frowned, “…Jefferson, or the Doctor.”

“And you?” The ball asked the rabbit-headed figure.

The rabbit-headed figure responded with a chuckle, “I favor Bai Youwei.”
