"What are you doing to my daughter?" Robert took hold and pulls her to his side. Harry grimaces by his action but quickly conceal it with a fake facade. He smiles and said... "Nothing father, Rya lost her way and I am trying to help her return to her room" Robert clenched his teeth upon hearing the truth. Don't ever touch his lovely daughter! Are, in fact, the words that he wants to exclaim at him. There is no way that he'll let some other man near his daughter! Nonetheless, the person who he called son is also included in the list. "Rya honey, go to your room now... " Ava surrenders secretly agreed with him and rushes back to her room. The two men watch as she disappeared from their sides before continuing their serious masquerade. "Follow me... We need to talk" Robert tidy up his coat and stumps over as Harry attended him from behind.
"Cheng! Where are you!" Ava huff in anger. He knows that Cheng is just trying to mess with her and are not happy with it. The little doll pops out in the air and flops onto her bed. "So...what happens with your life, how can he be there too?" Ava walk over to the window and closed all the curtains. Walking back she also rests herself beside the little doll. She tries to kick him off but the doll is strong enough to knock her legs with his fan. "Now...don't you ever try to touch me with your disgusting green toes" Cheng swaps over to the night lamp. He clicks it off and returns to the system area. The whole process indicates that she needs to sleep and that comfort her from all the problems she had faced. Hitting the male lead out of sudden, let him cook for her and cracked the original character and most of all, those incidents ended in a wrong way. Ava closes her eyes and tucked herself with the blanket. Feeling the warmness spreading to her body she prays..." I hope that tomorrow won't be as bad as today..." And with that, the girl falls in a restless sleep...

"Prepare the carriage!...make sure we don't leave anything behind...!"
The noisiness wakes her up from the deep slumber. Her body is unstable before but she feels lighter. She looks over the window and sees peoples dragging pieces of luggage into rich-looking carriages. 'Someone is moving out?' Ava ignores the commotions going on outside and walks over the cleared mirror. She brushes her hair across her cheeks to tidy up the messy broom fur. "I look different?" she stares confused...
Touching her face in surprised."My cheekbone is now cover with meat and skin!?" She stuttered back from the reflector,
hastily pulling out the screens from her space ring.

It's a moment of silence for the two. Cheng just came back from the system's space as he felt someone pulls out the screen which is obviously Ava. He didn't foresee this result but it is truly shocking. "Yeah...!!" "Yes!" They shout in unison hopping around on the couch. Ava is pleased for her skinny body to contains some meat while the other is grateful that even a clueless idiot can level up. He has been afraid that they could not progress to the next world but it seems that he still has hope.
(Knock knock)
The knock halts their action. Maids swarms the room as two of them carry her into a flowered water-filled bathtub. "Wait, wait, wait..." Ava yells struggling to release herself but in the end, they still succeed to bath her and dress her up. The girl is now crammed with ribbons and frills. Her silky black hair is braided and designed with flowers. 'They don't have even a bit of fashion sense...!' She really wants to tear down the historical purple dress as her reflection stands oppose her. "My... You look as ugly as a...." Cheng can't hold back his laugh but need to keep his serious face because the plot is changing fastly. They didn't know where this story is going to go and what path it would take for them to reach the right destination. He is here to guide her to be a better adventurer and a better person in the system but that is all he's worth. He is not the creator of the system nor he knows how the story goes once the plot changes. This is why he is more worried. Ava's movement is overly reckless for changing the plot too much but he hopes it'll all worth the sacrifice. Since this world is the first experience for her, the girl is clueless but all he can do is wait for her to fall and rise again...
"Cheng... Cheng... I need to go" Ava is escorted until she reaches the main door where everyone is keeping themselves busy. There is only one person that seems to be waiting for her. Harry run over the girl and took her towards the carriage. She is startled by the sudden attack but displays no attempt to stop his action."Wh..where...we going?" Ava whispers to ask. Harry is pleased to hear her speak since it hints that she is not bothered by the sudden accusation from the earlier incident. He is afraid for his father would tell some bad things about him and won't let them develop closer. "We are going to... The ross's" Harry answers while lifting her in the carriage. He doesn't want to tell her that they are going to meet his fiancee. Ava widens her eyes, "What we do there?" Her fingers occasionally pulling out the flower pins and playing with them. The plot change and she needs to be more careful. It develops too fast and one wrong step could push her back to the death hole.
Harry observes the girl and glimpsed several changes. "Are you getting better?" Ava jolted clearly in shock that the male lead noticed her transformation." Hmm... I eat... I feel better..." This sentence is enough for him to understand that this girl is not well fed by the family. He is grateful to cook for her yesterday or she would be even weaker now. Zombies can gain nutrients only by eating meats or they would lose their meat or skins for not taking them. It is like drugs for them, if they don't take it they'll die. "Then... do you want to eat with me again?" He throws a big gentle smile for her almost blinding the whole carriage. 'Is this the charm of the male lead!?' Ava asks Cheng inside her head. "Well... it's not as blinding as the protagonist's" Cheng tilt his black spectacles in the motion of the sun as ava presses her eyelids jointly...
"Su...sure" Ava responses to him while keeping their distances. She continues to play with the pinked and yellowed flower hairpins to avoid any conversation. Harry tries to open up with her but quickly conceal it. Observing her traits is much more comforting for him. He doesn't know what is he suppose to do...Either hides his secret love or ignore the feeling. Harry push the thoughts away and stares outside. Even the beautiful scenery cannot close his endurance towards the messy guessed.
While he is sad about the arrangement, Ava is excitedly waiting for them to arrive at the mansion. Finally, the game will begin... She snickers. After all her pieces of chess is finally in the right place. She doesn't have to move now, all she has to do is wait for the king to take the bait...
