"System?"
The sudden sound of a voice startled Charlotte.
He also used to read web novels to pass the time on his way to part-time transitions, and was no stranger to the system.
Traveling through + system, almost standard!
And there's even a cash reward for completing the mission?
But Charlotte wasn't happy at all at the moment, and Diana was looking up and down as if she were staring at a fat sheep and considering which part to eat first.
[Ding! Diana issues a mission to you: choose one item to please and satisfy the other party! Reward for completing the task: 1. Three days' grace on the date of rent payment! 2. +100 copper coins! 3. +10 favorability!
Do you accept? Yes! No!
The cold, mechanical voice sounded again, causing Charlotte to quickly calm down.
Offer yourself to a rich woman?
Charlotte didn't feel like pleasing and satisfying the other man with this current skinny body.
Money?
What he lacks most is money!
Big eyes in a jar?
Then he'd have to think about whether he'd be able to keep his big eyes open.
"Have you considered it?" Diana licked her red lips, a snow-white bone knife already in her hand at some point.
"An object to please and satisfy a woman!" Charlotte's mind raced, a fine cold sweat broke out on her forehead, and suddenly a flash of insight came to her, and offhandedly she said, as Diana raised the bone knife in her hand, "I know what you need!"
"Hmm?" Diana stopped moving.
"One moment!" Charlotte turned around and murmured acceptance of the quest in her mind while walking quickly towards the counter and taking out two vials of pink potion from the topmost corner.
"You think two vials of low-grade potions will satisfy me?" Diana's words were laced with a bit of sarcasm, she had already decided to take away Charlotte's right palm, he had nice fingers that would be suitable for a lamp base.
Charlotte felt a strong sense of crisis, but remained calm and said, "This is not an ordinary potion, but a hydrating serum!"
"Hydrating Serum?" Diana looked skeptical, she had never heard of this potion before.
"Mistress you are so beautiful and touching, both your figure and your face are incomparable to the celebrities of Calvary, even the most beautiful elves are dwarfed in front of you." Charlotte said with a face of praise.
The corners of Diana's mouth quirked up, she knew Charlotte was from Calva, quite knowledgeable and well spoken.
Of course, these are truths.
"But even the most beautiful face needs careful care and maintenance in order to remain youthful and moisturized forever." Charlotte's expression suddenly became serious, looking at Diana's face with some regret, "Do you feel that your skin is a little dry when you wake up recently? The skin color is also slightly dull compared to usual?"
"Dry and dull skin?" Diana froze, seeing Charlotte's serious expression, subconsciously lifted her slender fingers to brush her pale and delicate cheeks, and said somewhat less confidently, "It seems to be a little drier than before, and the color of her breath doesn't seem to be as pink."
The corner of Charlotte's mouth twitched, Diana's skin was the best he'd ever seen on a woman, radiant and bright, blown out and flawless.
But the more perfect a woman is, the more likely she is to fall into self-doubt and anxiety when challenged.
"Your feelings are right, the skin of your face has been exposed for a long time, and the air of the abyss is covered with dust and impurities, corroding and attacking your delicate skin all the time, making it fragile and sensitive." Charlotte looked solemn, as if she was announcing a terminal illness, "I don't think you want your skin to become rough and your face to become dull and yellow, right?"
"You mean I'm going to be a yellow-faced old woman?" Diana's tone was more than a little anxious.
"No, you are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen, it's just a small problem with your skin." Charlotte shook her head, "A problem that is not without a solution."
"What way?" Diana asked almost offhandedly.
Charlotte raised her hand and smiled, "This latest hydrating serum I've developed is just the answer to your troubles."
"That's it?" Diana looked at the pink lotion in the teardrop-shaped glass bottle and then at the smiling Charlotte, feeling as if she had fallen into some kind of trap.
"Yes, all you need to do is take a small amount of the serum and apply it all over your face, then gently massage it in to make it absorb, once a day, to achieve the effect of skincare and moisturizing." Charlotte swore.
Diana put away her bone knife and took the lotion from Charlotte's hand, her tone slightly cold, "If you're lying to me, I'll remove your head and take it back to the bench."
"You please try." Charlotte's expression was calm, but her heart was a little apprehensive.
Uncorking the bottle, a light floral scent hit her nose as Diana poured out a few drops of the watery creamy pink serum and spread it evenly over her face.
The icy cool moisturizing sensation fainted on her face, she felt as if her skin was breathing, greedily absorbing the moisture, and as if it was being gently stroked and massaged by a pair of soft little hands, the whole person went into a state of relaxation, so that she couldn't help but close her eyes to feel it in detail.
Charlotte looked at Diana with her eyes closed and the corners of her mouth turned up, the boulder in her heart finally fell to the ground, it seemed he had made the right bet.
A short while later, Diana opened her eyes, she tapped her cheeks with her fingers, they seemed to have become more elastic, and out of nowhere she took out a jeweled mirror and scrutinized them for a moment, her hydrated and smooth face, pink through and through.
I'm beautiful, okay?
"Interesting potion, I am indeed pleased with it." Diana nodded rather appreciatively and reached out, ready to take another bottle of the serum.
"The bottle of hydrating serum in your hand is a gift, one bottle can be used for seven days, if you want to purchase an additional bottle, I can sell it to you at a 20% discount." Charlotte smiled.
Diana's hand lurched as she looked at Charlotte with a little more admiration and smiled, "You're bold, but I like tenants like you."
"The original price is 800 copper coins, if you want it, you only need to pay 640 copper coins." Charlotte said without being condescending.
"Deal." Diana handed Charlotte seven silver coins and took the other bottle of serum, "The rest, as a tip."
"Thanks." Charlotte nodded and accepted it without excuses.
"Three days later, I will come back." Diana held up the mirror, swaying her waist as she left, and a soft voice could be heard from afar in the mist: "Magic mirror, magic mirror, who is the most beautiful woman in this world ..."
Charlotte immediately turned and entered, closing the clinic door behind her with a smooth hand, breathing heavily while still counting the silver coins she had arrived with.
Since the end of the War of the Races a thousand years ago in order to fend off the plague of the Red Moon, in order to facilitate transactions, the six powerful races had unified the currency in circulation on the continent of Iso.
The smallest currency is copper, about the size of an adult human fingernail, struck from brass.
One hundred copper coins could be exchanged for a silver coin minted from silver, and one hundred silver coins could be exchanged for a gold coin.
The obverse of the silver coin shows the six rings symbolizing the alliance of the six races of dragons, elves, trolls, humans, orcs, and dwarves, as well as a dove of peace encircled, and on the reverse is the city of Karwar, the city of freedom built by the six races.
Silver coins minted by the dwarven blacksmiths of the Eisen Iron Fortress, almost indistinguishable in size and weight, round and delicate to the touch, and branded with a special anti-counterfeiting mark, still circulating steadily in the chaotic Abyss.
Placing the seven silver coins and seven copper coins solemnly into the money pouch and keeping them close to her body, Charlotte felt a great sense of security.
[Ding! Diana's Pleasure Quest completed, rent payment date delayed by three days, gained: copper coins +100! favorability from Diana +10!
The system's voice rang out, and the chest money bag was noticeably heavier.
Charlotte hastily took out her money pouch again, and the seven silver coins became eight.
The system rewards come directly to the account!
One mission, money on both ends, cool!
Charlotte was beaming with joy and felt that life was full of promise.
Charlotte quickly calmed down though, earlier he had arguably taken a trick to get past Diana.
That so-called hydrating serum was something he had made up, and that bottle contained the failed healing potion that the original body had concocted the other day.
But the effect of hydration and moisturizing is indeed remarkable, he changed his mind as a skincare product, but not immediately turned into a treasure.
Now he was even a little grateful that the original was not a decent person.
Who in their right mind keeps a diary?
This hydrating serum might bring Charlotte a good amount of money, women's money is obviously better, not comparable to men and dogs.
"System?"
Charlotte tried to call out.
A virtual screen suddenly popped up in front of him.

[System mall: not yet open (can be opened when wealth value reaches 10000)]

Charlotte studied the panel carefully for a few moments, skimming over the wasted levels, and the luxurious magical skills she once possessed, to make sure she had the capital to survive in this secretive world.
Having had his magical cultivation abolished, he was no longer able to become a magician again, and the new main quest reward turned out to be a new cultivation system?
The system mall is not yet open, and there's no telling what goodies will be available.
The most striking thing is obviously the wealth value, which seems to be directly linked to the money in his pocket.
The point is, this system has a task is really give money ah! The kind where the trench doesn't default!
Healing the sick he gets stronger!
Finish the mission and he'll become rich!
He could so love this steady feeling of happiness.
Knock knock!
There was another knock at the door.
Charlotte tucked the money bag close to her and pulled the door open with a smile on her face.
"Doctor, I'm dying, you have to help me ..." A large figure collapsed towards the clinic.
