"Serena, come to the Isle of Forgetfulness. Let's get divorced."

Serena Yvonne came online, just to see her in-game "husband" ChampionXavier sent her this kind of message. Serena couldn't help but be a little flabbergasted. No way. The dormitory's broadband was only broken for half a month, only about ten days' worth of effort, the "feelings" had changed?

Serena replied after a long hesitation: "Why?"

ChampionXavier: "Sorry, Serena. Don't ask for the reason. I'll give you this set of Immortals equipment as compensation."

He's giving her alimony? Serena felt a bit depressed. "No, thanks."

Marriage in games should never be considered real. Originally, when she and Calem got married, it was for a quest. Some quests required married partners in order to complete, so the single members in the sect got married. Calem at the time had messaged asking Serena to marry him, Serena had agreed after a bit of thought.

They had been married for more than half a year, but Serena had never happily called him "husband" or any other nicknames. She had always called Calem by his name, but after such a long partnership and mutual reliance, she thought that a little bit of platonic camaraderie had developed.

But since it's just a game ......

Serena messaged back: "I'll be right there"

Serena's avatar in the game, "PerformerSerena", got on the horse and headed for the Isle of Forgetfulness.

"PerformerSerena" was a female character dressed entirely in crimson.

The game Serena played was called "Dreams of Pokemon" which was one of the hottest fighting games. This game didn't have any outstanding characteristics except that it had very good graphics, lots of different avatars. Each gender has 18 different avatar choices. Serena's red-clad female character was not very popular, not because the avatar was not beautiful, but because her weapon was a very large knife.

A gigantic knife, compared to an elegant jade flute, dancing white silk ribbons, a clean and flexible sword, or an Emei dagger, definitely did not have any sort of beauty or femininity. So many of the girls did not choose this avatar. But Serena liked her avatar. She felt it was very bold and it fit her self-image very well.

Once she got to the Isle of Forgetfulness, the two drank the Water of Forgetfulness. The system announced: "PerformerSerena" and "ChampionXavier" due to incompatibility of feelings, have announced their divorce. From now on, the two shall not have anything to do with each other.

Serena clicked cancel and refused the offer of Immortals equipment. She sent a smiley-face in return and her crimson-clad avatar boldly walked away.

On the second day, when Serena came only after finishing lunch, one of her closer female friends in the sect, FairyGodValerie, sent over a message: "Serena, what happened? You got divorced? I heard that Calem is getting married at eight today to DemonessAmelia.

Serena: "......"

FairyGodValerie: "Really divorced?"

Serena: "Yes."

FairyGodValerie: "Such a pity, Calem is not a bad catch. Who would've thought he would be blinded by beauty. But that DemonessAmelia is really a beauty."

Valerie's remark wasn't for the avatar, but for DemonessAmelia's real-life beauty. Three months ago, the game company hosted a one-time real life beauty pageant for players. The three most popular players would be awarded high level equipment. DemonessAmelia, on the basis of a few photographs, a video and her high popularity, came first. Her win created a sensation on Serena's gaming server. DemonessAmelia became the new target of that crowd of perverts.

Her "ex" suddenly getting flash-married to another woman, even though Serena only had a platonic camaraderie with him, couldn't help but feel her feel a little bit gloomy. She slammed her head against the desk (she always did this when depressed ... ...), and yelled: "Who does this type of thing, marrying for beauty !!!"

Serena's words were not yelled in the game, but in her dormitory, causing her to be hit with a pillow.

"Serena! Such a renowned beauty such as you yelling like this, the rest of us can't live anymore."
Yes, Serena was beautiful, and in fact was very beautiful. But beauty comes in many forms. There is the elegant kind, the intelligent kind, the sweet kind, the warm kind, the virtuous kind ... ...

But there was also Serena's kind – the flower vase ... ...

Even though Serena was a good student, studying hard every day, yet ... ...

A beautiful face, a forever alluring pair of eyes, eternally red lips, and a hot body. Even if Serena was wearing her university's tasteless uniform out, nobody would believe that she was a famous university's student.

Serena, remember the woe of her lifetime, continued hitting her head on the desk.

On the computer, FairyGodValerie continued to gossip: "Before, the rumour was that DemonessAmelia wanted to get married to somebody with higher levels. Didn't think that she would get together with Calem. But recently, she's been seen levelling up with Calem."

So it was during the time she wasn't there that they developed an "affair". Serena sent out a black and enraged emoticon.

"But it can't be all be blamed on Calem. Serena, really ... ..."

"Really what?" Serena finished hitting the desk, grabbed a mug of tea and started typing with one hand.
"Really ... ... You are so powerful, PK ranking at number six, has never asked men for equipment. People think that you are really a shemale!"

"Puh!" Serena sprayed water all over her monitor.
