Somehow, Leonard considered John lucky 'cause he had accomplished his first quest, see how he was banging her freely, she had fallen for him completely. And he was working towards accomplishing his second quest, in fact, according to what he told Leonard, his next target was already falling for his seduction.
He couldn't help but think of his own, would he be able to accomplish his first quest? Would Eva eventually fall for him? Or would he die? Well, he'll just have to do what John told him about finding the type of men she likes though he didn't know how he was gonna go about it yet. It was dusk already and Leonard had arrived at the door of his apartment. He unlocked it and stepped into it.
Getting inside, he undressed immediately and dashed into the bathroom to shower, he needed to cool down his body. Done showering, he came out of the bathroom and dressed up in something casual, then he prepared and ate dinner. Done eating, he balanced on one of the couches and began thinking how he was gonna discover the type of men Eva likes.
'Should I lie to her that I recently lost my job and got robbed at the same time which has left me broke? I might get her sympathy, then I'll ask if it's possible to work for her, maybe as a cleaner in her house. With that, I'll get closer to her and I'll be able to find out some secret stuff about her, who knows, the type of men she likes'. Leonard thought.
But not long after, he started laughing, he was laughing at the nonsense he was thinking. She would most likely not believe that story, she isn't stupid? She'll take it like he wants to use that means to get close to her since he had been trying to woo her. Leonard began thinking of something else, another means to discover the type of men she likes.
He sat there as his thought kept wandering, but then, the system disrupted his thinking,
[ Two weeks and four days to go, seduce and bang Eva, or you die]
Leonard knew that this was the daily routine, and after the system was done reminding him, he'll hear her voice no more. He wanted to ask her something, so he voiced out audibly,
"Don't go yet, I have something to ask you".
[ What is it? Are you having a hard time completing your quest? I thought you said you were gonna accomplish it under one week, you were so confident. So what is it?]
Yeah, he knew he said that, but he hated the fact that she was bringing that up, he took it like she was teasing him. But it wasn't the system's fault though, he remembered how he was bragging that day. He was like, 'Three weeks is too much, I'll seduce and have sex with her under one week'. Remembering that made him place his palms on his face, he was a bit ashamed. You know how it feels like to brag about something and not be able to keep to it? Yeah, that's how he felt.
The week wasn't over yet, four days to go, who knows, he could still accomplish his quest before that four days go by...he could still keep to his words.
"I didn't know that it would be this hard, I took it like since you guys gave me a handsome face plus the seduction tactics I'm aware of, I'll be able to seduce and bang her under one week. But it seems like that's not the case, that girl is really hard to get". Leonard voiced out in reply to what the system said, he wanted to redeem himself.
[ Your targets wouldn't be so easy to get, they aren't cheap girls that you can just toast and they'll fall for you easily. I knew you wouldn't be able to seduce her under one week, but keep striving to seduce her, 'cause if you don't, you'll die]
"Yeah, I know that, I'm fully aware of that". Leonard uttered.
[ And I see that you've met with another guy from Earth 1, another guy that is engaging in such quest that you're engaging in]
"Yeah, and we talked a lot, he gave me an idea on how I could accomplish my quest, and I'm thinking how I could implement it. Speaking with him isn't bad, right?". A bit of a dumb question.
[ No, not at all, we've talked about it before, you can speak with other men that are from Earth 1 and are engaging in their different quests. But as for people from this earth, you must make sure they don't find out that you aren't from this earth, if they do, I've already told you what would happen to you]
"The guy I spoke with has already accomplished his first quest, I witnessed the evidence in his house today...he goes by the name, John. I'm gonna reveal the idea he gave me even though you might know it. He told me to find out the type of men she likes, the things she likes, and if possible, her dislikes. And I was cracking my brain on how I could implement it before I heard your voice. Now, I just wanna ask, can you help me out? Can you give me hints on how I could implement it?".
The system laughed, then uttered, [ No, I wouldn't, I wouldn't render that type of massive help to you. I have hints to give you, hints that once you apply them, she'll most likely fall for you. But that's not how this quest work, we wouldn't give you a quest and help you achieve it easily? You have to work hard, Leonard, you have to find hints yourself. You have to make Eva fall for you with your efforts. That's what I can tell you]
Leonard scattered his hair with his palms, what the f**k was he gonna do now? His head was empty of ideas on how he could discover the type of men Eva likes. And this system wasn't even ready to render him the slightest help, so he'll just have to keep cracking his brain until it burst open. Why was Eva even hard to get? Why.
[ Are you frustrated again?]
Leonard wanted to answer her this way, 'Can't you see? Isn't it evident? I thought you are wise. Yeah, I am f**king frustrated'. But he just controlled himself, who knows what could happen if he answers her that way. So, this is what he said instead,
"Yeah, I'm frustrated. Somehow, I just wanna be free from this, I wanna be free from this quest".
[ Sorry, that isn't possible. You have to engage in the quest to live]
Leonard sighed deeply, then said to the system once again,
"I am still having the urge to engage in gambling. So I just wanna ask, am I free to?".
[ You are free to, but can you? There's still something you don't have, there's something you aren't aware of]
"What is it?". Leonard asked inquisitively.
[ You'll find out later]
Leonard ran his palms through his hair and uttered, "This same you'll find out later?".
[ Yeah. Leonard, strive to accomplish your quest. Find a way to implement the idea you were given, try not to die. I'm going]
And with that, Leonard heard the system's voice no more. He was in this alone, he'll have to find a way to implement the idea John gave to him, though death was calling him, he doesn't want to die. While he was conversing with the system, he stood up from the couch, but it was about time to begin cracking his head once again, so he sat back on the couch.
He sat on that couch for minutes thinking about how he was gonna discover the type of men Eva likes, but he couldn't come up with a valid plan. But then, an idea came to his head, but it was a bit risky, he'll have to keep hiding while implementing it. He then decided to do something first,
"Since I couldn't get to speak some more with John yesterday 'cause of the disruption. I'll go to his house tomorrow to ask how he implemented the idea he gave me, how did he discover the type of men his first quest likes? We are friends now, we are from the same earth, so he'll willingly answer me".
Yeah, that was what Leonard planned on doing. He had come up with a plan, but he'll just ask John first to see if his suggestion would be valid, then he'll decide on which to implement...his or John's own.
