[Creator… Do you wish to quit this scenario?]
"Are you gaslighting me?" Thanh Van was no quitter, and just the suggestion alone was insulting!
It was quite simple. If one wanted Thanh Van dead, at least let him gaze into the face of his killer as the life faded out of his eyes.
The plague doctor stood silent, to Thanh Van's annoyance. He had clearly given the command, yet it was the system that reared its ugly head.
[Not at all, creator.]
"Then remove the mask."
Irritation overran the fear of death as Thanh Van glared at the plague doctor.
[Request… denied.]
Thanh Van gnashed his teeth, forcing himself to lower his voice in fear of waking up the other two men.
"Why not?!"
The plague doctor stared down at Thanh Van without a word.
[Creator, you know I cannot do that.]
"You-!"
[You set the rules.]
The system answered lazily, and Thanh Van wanted to strangle the damn coding out of it!
