News travels fast in royal palaces—especially when it involves someone trying to seduce the queen with a love letter that smelled like dried mangoes and testosterone.
Somewhere inside the high halls of Aetheria...
"Captain! The suspect has been identified!"
"Who? The same boy who sent that letter?"
"Yes sir! He... he's fled to Mount Baka."
"...Mount Baka? The haunted fart-hole of the kingdom?"
"Yes sir. Should we pursue?"
"...Bring everyone. I want him alive."

Meanwhile...
Fengye was sitting on a rock at Mount Baka, chewing a stalk of grass like a budget anime villain.
"Ah, peace at last," he sighed. "No teachers, no tests, no guards trying to cut off my legacy."
Just then —
DUN DUN!
A glowing notification lit up in front of his face.
> System Alert: Incoming hostile forces.
Estimated arrival: 7 minutes.
Suggestion: Panic or Pose coolly.
Feng: "WHAT!? HOW DID THEY FIND ME?!"
Loki (appearing lazily in the air, sipping a heavenly mojito): "Well, maybe because you left behind a letter signed, 'With spicy love, Fengye the Future King.'"
Feng: "IT WAS A STRATEGIC MOVE!"
Loki: "It was a suicide note in calligraphy."
Suddenly, loud galloping hooves echoed across the barren land. Dust clouds rose from the foot of Mount Baka.
The Queen's Elite Guards had arrived.
At the front of the group, the infamous Captain Varn rode his glowing wolf-horse hybrid. His eyes locked on Feng like a cat spotting a mosquito doing push-ups.
"You there!" Captain Varn shouted. "By the order of Her Majesty Queen Alira, you are hereby EXP—"
BOOM!
Feng threw a handful of spicy dirt.
Varn: "...Did he just pocket-sand me?"

Combat Initiated:
Feng dodged, rolled, and kicked a guard in the nuts while Loki provided commentary like a bored sports announcer.
Loki: "Ooh! That one's going to feel it in the afterlife."
Feng: "Help me out, damn it!"
Loki: "Alright alright—Reward Incoming!"
> Item Received: Level 1 Hut
Item Received: Folding Fan of Ultimate Face-Slapping
Shop Unlocked: Available post-battle
Bonus: Cultivated Rice Field (Do Not Overeat, Idiot)
Feng (wielding the folding fan like a boss): "Time to teach these testosterone thieves a lesson!"
With one well-timed slap, he knocked out a guard who spun three times and fainted dramatically into a bush. Another guard was taken down by a lucky sheep headbutt (Mount Baka strikes again).
Captain Varn, with half his dignity and his horse's wig gone, finally gave the retreat signal.
"WE'LL BE BACK, YOU GARDEN-FROG!"
Feng: "And I'll be here, serving tea in my new hut!"

Post-Battle
Feng collapsed into his new hut, which appeared like IKEA magic in the middle of a cursed mountain.
Feng: "Hey Loki... do I get more rewards?"
Loki: "Do I look like Doraemon to you?"
Feng: "A little bit."
Loki: "Listen here, you rice-guzzling panda—my powers are sealed, we're broke, and if you die, I die too. So let's work together or end up as ghost roommates."
Feng: "...Fine. But next time I want a jacuzzi."
Loki: "You'll get a stick. Maybe."
