Boom!
What sounded like a sonic boom reverberated across space in the next instant.

Days went by within the MBO camp, and Gustav resumed his training as expected.
The quest to stay away from Endric had a particular punishment for failure that hadn't taken effect yet.
Other failure punishments like taking ten points off Gustav's attributes and others had already taken effect, but this particular one still hadn't.
It had been counting down all this time, and on this particular day, only a few hours were left.
'Why can't you just cancel it?' Gustav asked.
("I don't have control. The moment you decided to fail the quests, there was no way to escape the punishments that would come with it,") The System voiced out in his head.
'This is annoying. You shouldn't have issued the quest in the first place,' Gustav responded to the System.
