"Ding! Host has triggered the criteria in unlocking a hidden mission.
May host complete the task in the given time. Wishing for a pleasant coordination.
( •̀ ω •́ )y"
"69…"
Shen Yun looked at the blue hologram hovering in front intently without saying anything.
Getting sent back to her original world?
She would love to, if her body wasn't a f*cking chewed up corpse!
System 69 was silent.
Although it was an artificial intelligence, it still knew that it wouldn't be good to trigger its Host at this time, its danger radar was glowing red.
After having a one-sided face-off with the system, Shen Yun let out a heavy-hearted sigh.
She knew all her previous thoughts were bound to be impossible with this shitty system binding her.
After being eaten alive, she was immediately enslaved by this system who seemed to be digging pits for her.
Ay, her poor life.
With no choice but to face the inevitable, she began to focus on the mission. She really wished she had an Iron Man in her life.
Actually, if you ignore the fact that the mission is almost impossible to complete in the span of 3 years, the reward was quite hefty.
The system should have come with plot armor, RIGHT?
You know, that plot armor that doesn't let the protagonist die?
"... Host, you do know that authors tend to give the exact opposite of what the protagonists want, right?"
"Then what do you want, me wishing to die?!"
She grumbled frustratedly.
She's trying to remain positive with a death flag on top of her okay!
How the hell would she destroy an ancestry line when this body doesn't even have an ounce of spiritual energy!
Sure she thought about it earlier, but she didn't expect the deadline to be so soon.
"Host can open the beginner's package."
"Beginners package, is there such a thing?"
Shen Yun perked up.
"Yes. Host can activate it in the inventory."
Why didn't you tell her earlier?! (╬▔皿▔)╯
"Host never asked."
Shen Yun:○|￣|_ =3
Shen Yun had an annoyed expression on her face, but her heart did ease a bit.
Shen Yun made a note in her mind to check the system shop later that day.
With her being pacified, she continued asking her questions.
"So what's this about points and hidden plots? and what about my abilities?"
Switching the conversation, Shen Yun focused on the rewards she would get after finishing the mission, either way, it wasn't good to dwell on negative things.
"Points is a system currency the host gains by completing tasks and missions the system gives. The Host can use them at the system shop."
"Host can also gain temporary access to a portion of your previous abilities for 10 points per hour and a maximum of 5 hours a day."
Her eyes glimmered at the thought of being able to use her abilities.
That would be a big advantage in this world where a person who you randomly threw a rock at might be an expert.
"What about the Hidden plot?"
She asks when she noticed the system dodging question.
"Host currently has no authority. Please level up the system."
"..."
The easing annoyance in her heart once again exploded like a volcano.
System 69: ah, what had it done to receive such a moody host.
Shen Yun stood up from the ground, ignoring the dull pain all over her body, and went to the wooden bed that looked like it would collapse at any given second.
Systems, missions and whatnot.
All of that can be dealt with later.
She wants nothing but to have a good long rest.
How long has it been since she had a nap?
With all of what happened in the span of a couple of hours, her brain needed some time to organize itself to properly think.
It was impressive enough for her to not collapse immediately after an exhausting day, her worldviews getting severe blows over and over.
Either way, she was good at adapting to situations, providing that she lived in an apocalypse for years.
She was a person who was thrown into a damn fantasy world that transcends the law of physics, anyone would break down under such pressure.
Although she joked she might be the MC of a novel, it's still a lot to accept as a reality.
And considering that her current body was a ticking time bomb…
'Aiya, how miserable my life is…'
She grumbled internally, as her head landed on the wooden bed, with no pillows or bed sheets.
She stared blankly at the air,
'69, would I be able to get my revenge?'
The system mentioned how she would be sent back to her original world.
Is… is it possible to go back there alive?
After she gets revenge for the original owner after she finishes all these tasks, would she be able to get her revenge?
She didn't say it out loud, yet the mechanical voice sounded out again.
"Host would be able to after completing the designated set of tasks."
There was a small pause,
Shen Yun let out a smile filled with sorrow yet an endearing anticipatory look.
She's sorrowful knowing that there would actually be a day she'll also kill that person with her own hands.
On the other hand, her heart was also thirsty for revenge.
'It seems we will meet again…'
69 heard her thoughts as it felt the abnormal mood function of its host.
It didn't reply.
With a bit of hesitation, it searched its database and played a mellow song.
Shen Yun stared at the empty space as she listened to the soft music.
Having a new motivation to continue on greeting tomorrow's sun, she slowly fell asleep.
