[FAMOUS newcomer’s real identity: Exposed!]

This was the title of the article in Weibo that had been gaining attention since early this morning. This was posted by a handle that often released gossips related to the gaming industry. Particularly, Arcadia. It had more than 400,000 followers. So, when this article was posted, it immediately caught the attention of the people who loved to follow gossips related to Arcadia.

The article went like this;

[This small one had watched the preliminary round of Arcadia’s Rookie Carnival. There were many outstanding newcomers but one stood out among the rest. He not only has skills but his game avatar has amazing appearance as well. I believe everyone knows who this small one was talking about. Yes, that’s right. It’s none other than Noctis, the one who was rumored to be a new addition to team Yunyue.]

[This small one was so curious about him that I started to investigate his identity. And let me tell you, it was really hard. This small one almost gave up. But as I was thinking if I should or should not, a certain live streamer caught my attention. Or should I say an ex-live streamer?]

[About three months ago, there was a fairly known live streamer who was suddenly entrenched in a scandal. You might not be familiar with him. After all, his live streams were usually just him singing and entertaining his viewers. Are you asking what kind of scandal he was in? Wait, I’m getting there.]

[So, this live streamer, had been using his looks to garner a lot of donations from male and female viewers alike. If that’s only it, then no one would really complain. We all knew that streamers wouldn’t really earn anything if they don’t look good. But this particular streamer not only look good, he was very beautiful. He also had the sweet mouth. He could easily make his viewers donate at least 1000 RMB. At one time, he even managed to convince one of his viewers to donate 10,000 RMB.]

[What’s wrong with that, you ask? Well, it turned out that this streamer was actually faking his looks! Yes, that’s right. He was using some kind of App during his live stream to make himself look more beautiful when he looks so ordinarily plain. If that was all, then it wouldn’t cause that much of a scandal. But since his real looks was revealed, another much more terrifying thing was exposed to the people supporting him.]

[This guy was actually stepping on three boats at the same time! These three people posted angrily on his Weibo account during the time that his real face was revealed. The people quickly noticed their posts and discovered that he was three-timing. But the most scandalous thing was, these three were all men! With the great detective work of netizens, they even found that one of the three was married!]

[Are you asking what does this have to do with Noctis? Am I implying that they were one and the same? Well, let me just put the picture of the live streamer’s face when using the App and Noctis’ game avatar side by side and let you guys decide.]

After that was an attachment of the said pictures.

The people who read the article felt incredulous at first. They were thinking, did someone abduct this person and filled his brain with water? How could he suddenly connect Noctis with some live streamer? Did he just pull all that out of his ass or something?

But then, for some reason, comments appeared one after another agreeing with the article. This made the tide of opinions completely changed.

[I remember that Noctis first appeared in Arcadia three months ago. Could he really be that streamer? Scary!]

[I look at the two pictures look really quite similar.]

[I think so too! How creepy!]

[Well, he certainly has that ’sweet tongue’. Didn’t he lead the opinion of others to turn against that Angel, Raphael, and make him look like some scheming white lotus?]

[Oh my god! You’re right! Wouldn’t this make Raphael a victim?]

[Does that mean that Noctis is gay?]

[Wait- isn’t he a new member of Yunyue? Did they know about this?]

[Did you see how close he was with YUN? Maybe he had already seduced him.]

More and more comments like this appeared. And the people reading them started to think; Was that really the case? After all, people had some kind of herd mentality. If it appeared that many people believed one thing, the others would soon see that as the ’truth’.

=====

When Luo Yan and Yu Jiao were walking back to their classroom, they happened to hear a conversation between two students in front of them.

"Hey, have you read that thing on Weibo about Noctis?" one asked.

The moment he heard his game account name, Luo Yan’s ears perked up.

"Yeah. Do you think it’s true?"

"What, that he’s a former gay live streamer who loved to cheat people out of their money? Why not? There’s a reason why he looked quite the sissy."

When Luo Yan heard that comment, he almost slipped on his steps. If not for Yu Jiao quickly supporting him, that might have really happened.

"Yan Yan, are you okay?" she asked. She also heard the conversation of the two and it just made her feel weird. Just where did that kind of rumor come from?

Luo Yan smiled at Yu Jiao, telling her that he was okay. Then he walked towards the two students in front of them.

"Excuse me, can I ask what you’re talking about?" he asked, smiling at the two. "I’ve been into Arcadia lately, you see. And I’ve been interested with that player, Noctis. So, can you elaborate on what you just said earlier?"

The two were stunned at first seeing Luo Yan smiled. Then they felt gratified because the second young master of Luo family was talking to them. After a while, they found themselves telling Luo Yan everything they knew.

The more Luo Yan heard, the brighter his smile became.

"Interesting," he said once the two finished.

The two students, who saw Luo Yan’s smile that was much sweeter than the first smile he gave them, suddenly felt chills behind their backs for no reason.
