Because of My Stupidity, I Became a Timid Vampire

Chapter 181 : I Could Do It Too

At this moment, the innocent Xifeng had not yet realized the undercurrents stirring in the shadows. She sprawled on the bed like a ball of cotton, smiling as she scrolled through netizens' comments, as if she could never tire of reading them.

There were still more good-hearted people in this world. Although some were concerned about the two's early romance and homosexuality, the vast majority of netizens chose to show understanding and offer their blessings.

Where some rejoiced, others worried. Bai He, who was racking his brains over plot development, saw the photo of the two and lost all motivation to write. He directly closed his computer and buried himself under the covers.

Bei Yaoluo, who was shopping with Ye Zhenzhen, happened to scroll past this post and immediately frowned deeply, though she said nothing, making Ye Zhenzhen beside her unable to help but feel curious.

As for He Pingge... she completely exploded.

She had just casually checked Teacher Hana ni Kaze's timeline as usual to see if there were any newly updated yuri illustrations, but instead saw Teacher Hana ni Kaze's repost of Xiyue's post, immediately receiving a critical hit.

What did she see? The people in the photo were Bei Yaoyue and Xifeng? Which meant Teacher Hana ni Kaze was Bei Yaoyue, and Xiyue was Xifeng?

Then what was she? A clown?

Her favorite artist turned out to be the person she hated most. He Pingge felt the world must be playing a joke on her. How could it mess with people's hearts like this?

At this moment, He Pingge deeply understood the meaning of "having one's defenses broken" for the first time, and also felt the world's overwhelming malice.

How could she look directly at Teacher Hana ni Kaze's works from now on? How could she continue to love those yuri erotic illustrations she had loved for years?

Thus, He Pingge, who had just recovered some of her mood, sank into the depths again, making Su Weiai across from her panic and fumble helplessly.

"You went to do voice acting for Honkai Impact 5th?" Bei Yaoyue suddenly turned around and asked while browsing the computer.

Xifeng looked up in confusion and answered, "Yes, how did you know?"

Logically, she hadn't told anyone about this. Besides the Honkai Impact 5th project team and herself, no third party should know. Why would Bei Yaoyue know about this?

"See for yourself." Bei Yaoyue forwarded an image to Xifeng.

It was a huge promotional poster featuring several distinctive 2D beautiful girls—a white-haired girl who looked silly and airheaded, a gentle and virtuous housewife-type girl who clearly belonged in the kitchen, and an emotionless girl with two silver drills in her hair. Below the promotional poster were several lines of large text.

"Honkai Impact 5th will begin departure testing in August this year, igniting the soul of 2D action! Several renowned voice actors lend their passionate voices! ...Theresa: Ichinose Xiyue..."

After seeing this promotional image, Xifeng's focus was completely different from Bei Yaoyue's. She murmured thoughtfully, "So the first beta test is in August..."

It was already early July, less than two months until the first test, yet the character voice acting work had only just begun. Wasn't this timeline too rushed?

Turning to look at the contemplative Xifeng, Bei Yaoyue interrupted her thoughts, "This Theresa you're voicing—does she have a CP?"

Actually, Bei Yaoyue's thinking was simple. She didn't care about anything else; she only cared whether anyone would steal her Xifeng—even if it was just voice acting characters in a game.

This question actually put Xifeng in a difficult position. She scratched the back of her head with a troubled expression, "Probably... yes?"

Xifeng was also an old fan of the Honkai series and could be considered knowledgeable about the plot, but regarding whether Theresa had a CP, she really couldn't answer definitively.

"Which character?" Bei Yaoyue's brow furrowed as she questioned back, her pale legs swinging in the air, drawing Xifeng's gaze.

After staring at those pale legs for a while, Xifeng slowly answered, "It should be Cecilia Schariac."

Since there was no official CP, and quite a few characters had ambiguous relationships with Theresa, fans always had various strange pairings. If Xifeng had to choose one, it would probably be Cecilia.

"Cecilia..." Muttering this somewhat unfamiliar name quietly, Bei Yaoyue turned to search for Cecilia's name on the promotional poster. After looking back and forth several times, she confirmed there was no mention of Cecilia on the promotional image.

This meant two possibilities—either Honkai Impact 5th had no plans for Cecilia to appear and this character's scenes were directly cut, or they hadn't found a voice actor for Cecilia yet, so it wasn't marked on the promotional poster.

But either possibility was good news for Bei Yaoyue now. She couldn't help but smile slightly, a glint flashing in her starry eyes.

"You should have contact with staff responsible for voice acting, right?"

Xifeng was stunned for a moment and asked, "I do, but what do you want to do?"

"Help me ask whether there's a voice actor candidate for this Cecilia character yet," Bei Yaoyue said with a smile.

"...Alright."

Although she found Bei Yaoyue's intentions strange, Xifeng still nodded in agreement. She sent a message to Sister Li and quickly got a response.

"Not yet. They say because this character's plot is too tragic, among the people with suitable voices for Cecilia that the project team has found, no one is willing to voice her yet."

Xifeng reported what Sister Li had told her to Bei Yaoyue, then couldn't help but sigh. Mother-in-law, you died so miserably!

"Good." Getting the answer she wanted, Bei Yaoyue smiled faintly. "Ask her if I can try voice acting for this character."

"You?" Showing a strange expression, Xifeng stared at Bei Yaoyue with suspicious eyes, her tone slightly disdainful. "Do you know anything about voice acting?"

When saying this, Xifeng completely failed to realize that just a week ago, she had also been a complete novice who knew nothing about voice acting.

"No." Bei Yaoyue showed no shame and even said somewhat righteously, "But not knowing doesn't mean I can't do it."

From childhood, she, Bei Yaoyue, had never been afraid of anything. Wasn't it just voice acting for a character? Just opening your mouth—I could do it too.jpg

"..." Xifeng was momentarily speechless. She didn't know where Bei Yaoyue got such confidence. "But you're tone-deaf when singing. How could you do voice acting?"

Although Xifeng didn't understand voice acting, at least her singing was passable and she had some control over her voice. But Bei Yaoyue... she had heard Bei Yaoyue sing before, and calling it ghostly wailing would be praising her.

Undeniably, Bei Yaoyue's voice was the standard cool girl and ice beauty type, which would indeed be very suitable for voicing Cecilia. The hardware was adequate, but Xifeng deeply doubted Bei Yaoyue's software capabilities.
