Reincarnation Paradise

In his private room, Su Xiao waited for his entry into the Devil's Castle game, checking his supplies during the idle time. He had enough recovery items, and his weapons and armour were in good condition. His state was also good, with his HP at 100% and his MP at 3279/3326, soon to be fully restored.

After a moment of hesitation, Su Xiao took out a piece of mana recovery chewing gum and began chewing to speed up his mana regeneration.

As he chewed the gum, his body instinctively tensed.

Bang!

Everything went black, and he faintly sensed shadows flickering around him.

After an unknown amount of time, Su Xiao regained consciousness. As he came to, he felt a sense of restraint and heard the clanking of chains when he moved.

He was in complete darkness, bound tightly to an iron pillar by heavy chains. Despite his efforts to break free, the chains were highly sturdy. Even using all his strength, the chains only creaked, and he couldn't escape. It wasn't just the chains; it was a spatial force binding him.

...

After reading the notifications from Reincarnation Paradise, Su Xiao understood the situation. Alice, the Wolf Butler, and the Castle Demon Servants were entities he couldn't confront. It was peculiar that the introduction of the Devil's Castle was just "???", and the numerous side quests indicated the castle was quite large. R

Clack.

A magical lamp lit above, not illuminating the room but dispelling the darkness. The darkness seemed like a living entity, eager to consume anything.

Su Xiao surveyed his surroundings. He was in a roughly 200-square-meter room with nine iron pillars standing in a row. Each pillar, including the one he was bound to, held a person. Su Xiao was at the centre.

Observing the other eight people, Su Xiao recognised them as contractors participating in the Devil's Castle game with him. They were all here to earn the Proof of the Strong, but whether they were competitors was still unknown.

"Use your strength, almost there, come on."

"Come on, big brother."

"Big brother, you're amazing."

"I'm using all my strength! Ah!! Explode, small universe!"

Pfft.

"Hahaha, big brother, you farted."

"Shut up!"

"Third brother, don't talk. We heard it, that's enough. There are outsiders here, let big brother keep some face, hahaha."

"Hahaha, that was loud."

Hearing the boisterous laughter, Su Xiao's mouth twitched. Three people immediately came to mind: three muscular men, resembling bodybuilders, in matching armour and the same profession—paladins.

Turning his head, Su Xiao saw it was the National Football Team's three brothers, also known as the Three Fools of the National Football Team.

Woof.

Bubuwang barked. The silly dog wasn't bound by chains and sat squatting beside Su Xiao.

Hearing Bubuwang's bark, the eldest of the National Football Team's brothers looked puzzled. He turned his head and, upon seeing Bubuwang, quickly looked at Su Xiao.

As their eyes met, the eldest brother felt his scalp tingle. He had encountered Su Xiao twice before, once being beaten half to death and another time as allies. Despite their past cooperation, he still felt intimidated by Su Xiao because Su Xiao's abilities were highly effective against them.

While the eldest brother was wary of Su Xiao, he got along well with Bubuwang. The collision between the two pranksters, the National Football Team's three fools and Bubuwang was inevitable in the Hunter world.

The eldest brother coughed lightly and nudged his two younger brothers. The second and third brothers were confused but immediately fell silent upon seeing Su Xiao.

"This isn't…"

"Third brother, try to break free from the chains!"

The eldest brother cut off the third brother's words. It was best to pretend not to know each other under the circumstances. The third brother, though straightforward, was not stupid and quickly caught on.

Since Su Xiao was bound to the central pillar, four pillars were on his left, and four were on his right. The National Football Team's three brothers were to his left, with another pillar holding a tall, busty woman with golden hair and cat ears. Her hands and paws were almost identical, complete with squishy pads. These were not accessories but her actual features.

"Interesting, meow~."

The cat girl squinted her eyes. Her sclera was sky blue, and her pupils were jet black, resembling a specific type of cat.

The cat girl noticed Su Xiao and the National Football Team's three fools knew each other. She said nothing but remained vigilant. She seemed unconcerned about the chains binding her.

"That stupid dog."

The cat girl muttered, glancing at Bubuwang. She seemed to have met Bubuwang before. In the Naruto world, Bubuwang had carried her to Su Xiao in her cat form. Her abilities were so hidden that Su Xiao didn't realise she was a contractor.

Besides the four people to Su Xiao's left, there were four others to his right: an over 200-pound fat man, a girl dressed as a detective, a man with gold-rimmed glasses, and a gloomy man who looked like everyone owed him money.

The fat man was yawning, his stomach growling with hunger. The girl in detective attire was sneakily observing everyone as if spying on them. The man with gold-rimmed glasses was calm, politely smiling at anyone who looked his way. The gloomy man was desperately trying to break free from the chains, his expression showing signs of anxiety.
