Chereads / System, I beg of you, let me die! / Chapter 12 - Give And Take

Chapter 12 - Give And Take

When Zed finished the sentence, a window appeared before him.

Insufficient amount of tokens. Do you want to acquire a token?

A yes or no option appeared.

"..."

Zed clicked on yes, and then the screen changed.

Based on your authority, you have access to these missions:

Option 1 -

World Name: Suspense B57772

World Difficulty: 2

Mission Giver: [Savefile] System

Mission Description:

This newbie system entered a world where there is a strong [Heavenly Will].

As a result, it cannot choose a native as its host.

It requests a human that will take control of a dying old man and complete the main quest.

The system will grant bonus rewards for a good result.

Mission Reward: 1x [Token] + ??? + 1x [ [A]Travel Ticket]

Option 2 –

World Name: Visual Novel A335661

World Difficulty: 1

Mission Giver: [Super Lazy] System

Mission Description:

I am on vacation and traveling around different worlds, searching for entertainment.

Recently I observed the following world where ten people are participating in a killing game.

You have three options on the starting character, and the objective is to show me an alternative ending.

The weirder the ending, the better rewards.

Mission Reward: 2x [Token] + ???

Option 3 –

World Name: Light Novel A113342

World Difficulty: 1

Mission Giver: [Super Love] System

Mission Description:

Recently, I encountered a most tragic story while on my vacation.

Instead of [Ai], the most beautiful and cute character, the main character chose [Chitoge] as his romantic partner at the end.

The best girl lost, unacceptable!

Please take control of one of the ten males I have procured for you and show me an ending where [Ai] is happy.

The better the ending, the more you will get.

Mission Reward: 2x [Token] + ???

"..."

Zed was once again speechless.

What is exactly going on?

Even if he were to ignore how human-like some of the descriptions were, there was still confusion.

'What will happen if I die in another character? Would I die or not?'

'What is a [Travel Ticket]?'

'What happens to my powers if I enter another creature?'

There were so many questions and zero answers.

Now that he had seen this additional information, he was no longer sure what his question would be.

‎‎

However, there was a reward he couldn't ignore.

It was the [Travel Ticket].

If [Travel Ticket] allows him to escape from his world, he might be able to become weak again.

Zed was not quite sure what to choose.

If he dies in the killing game, he might die and successfully return to his old world.

However, if he is wrong and fails the mission, he might lose the potentially rare reward [Travel Ticket].

After considering the situation for a few minutes, Zed finally decided to go for the first option.

In the end, in the worst case, Zed assumed he could go for another death mission later.

After Zed chose the first option, he instantly saw dark.

When he came to, Zed felt the cold touch of the ground on his face.

His body was on the floor.

When Zed attempted to stand up, he felt a sharp pain in his back.

'Fuck, it hurts... So that is what it meant by elderly.'

In the end, Zed rolled until his back was toward the floor.

Looking at his arms, they were thin and full of wrinkles.

Whenever Zed attempted to stand up, he felt pain beyond belief in what seemed to be all of his body.

Furthermore, the room was too warm.

Not only Zed felt like he was sweating, but he also had a faint feeling of a headache.

After a few minutes of struggle, he let out a deep sigh and gave up.

At that moment, a screen appeared before Zed.

Welcome, it is I, [Savefile System].

Thank you for accepting my mission.

My current abilities are as follows:

1. You can save your progress once every twenty-four hours.

2. There is only one Savefile available.

3. The default Savefile leads directly to now, the introduction.

Suddenly, another screen appeared.

Name: Mark (Zed)

Savefile: [Mark's House], Just now

Main Mission:

According to the story of this world,

a universal superpower will take control of this world in about fifteen minutes.

Its name is [Infinite Horror Organization].

It will take the entirety of humanity into a different dimension and force them to do their bidding.

Meanwhile, countless creatures in the universe will watch over them like pets in a zoo.

The main character is [Keila], a girl who experiences this world for the second time and tries to destroy the organization's plans while saving as many lives as possible.

The main character repeatedly fails in the original story until her ten thousandth regression when she finally destroys the last mission.

Since the system has no time for that, please help her.

Your mission is to destroy the [Infinite Horror Organization].

All methods of completion will suffice.

Zed felt refreshed.

Unlike his system, this 'newbie' system is pretty nice.

Not only did it give him all the information he needed, but it also revealed some details about his situation.

Now he knows that after he takes on a mission, he gains the power of the system that gave him the task.

What that means for his original body is still unknown, but his system is not so nice to let him have a chance at dying, so probably nothing too good.

But now he was getting worried.

'What exactly is the organization?'

It will be impossible if he needs to fight god-like beings as an old man.

Because he didn't know what difficulty even meant, he might be stuck here forever.

'... Well, first, I need to stand up.'

Luckily, there was a bed beside him.

Zed barely got on his bed after struggling for more than two minutes.

Looking to his left side, Zed saw a walking stick leaning on the wooden wall.

'...How the hell am I supposed to destroy an organization like that?'

After struggling to get the walking stick off the wall, he slowly managed to stand up.

Zed's posture was not straight, and his face looked grumpy.

It was an old man that was clearly about to die.

When he was finally standing, the fifteen minutes had already passed.
