Willam stood up from the ground and turned towards Lilly, who just watched him with an amused look on her face.
William took a deep breath, bowed ninety degrees beside Lilly, and asked, "Please! Can you treat me and save me?"
Lilly giggled, hearing that. She already expected Willam to ask her to save him, but not so quickly. It was also a funny scene, considering Willam's body shape.
She asked, "You sure are opening yourself too much to me? Do you trust someone so easily?"
William kept his head low in the position of bowing and replied, "No! I don't trust anyone. But I always trust my instincts as they've always been true. They had saved my life multiple times."
He then slightly raised his head and looked directly into Lilly's eyes. He said, "And now these Instincts of mine are telling me to put my trust in you. I'm just following them like I always had."
"You have good Instincts." Lilly nodded her head and said. "So, about your problem, well, first of all, you sit down."
William did as Lilly said and again sat beside her, looking into the dense forest from the small cliff.
"About your problem, it's impossible to solve it; maybe it could be treated when it's in an early phase, but..." Lilly said as she looked at Willam. "But now it's too late; the worms have already grown and are part of your body. Doing anything to them would mean your body will receive the same treatment."
William was disheartened and looked down on the ground with a disappointed look. He didn't fear death on the level others do. He had already lived a miserable life, and judging from the way things were going, he would live like this till his death.
He was just disappointed that he couldn't teach his clans a lesson or two.
Lilly saw the look on William's face and grinned, "Though it isn't impossible for me."
William's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly raised his head, his eyes shining in hope. But the moment he met Lilly's eyes, he saw mischievousness in them and a grin on her face.
His cheeks flushed as he realized Lilly was just playing with him. He puffed his cheeks and looked away. He feared Lilly would see his face again and make fun of him.
Unable to contain it any longer, Lilly laughed out loud. William's so-called anger poofed away upon hearing the sweet laughter beside him.
He gave a side secret glance at Lilly and was momentarily stunned. The scene was just too beautiful for his brain to handle, and it stopped working.
Finally, Lilly composed herself and wiped the tear from the corner of her eyes. She just couldn't control herself; his face was just too cute when he looked like he had been wronged.
Even now, her inner devil was screaming at her to continue poking fun at William, but she controlled herself this time.
Still, a smile was plastered on her face. She raised her hand and pinched Willam's chubby cheeks. She said, "Sorry! Sorry! I just couldn't control myself there."
Willam got flustered, and his face turned beet red. He had spent all his life to survive, so he had never come into close contact with a woman, and this was showing now.
Lilly understood that pretty well and was just using it. She found it fun to tease the young virgin boy; it was not like she was any older than him. But at least counting the age of her previous life, she was older than him.
'Should I become the sugar mommy of him?' The thought passed through Lilly's mind, making her grin broader and wider. The more she thought about it, the more she found it exciting.
'Alright! Then the task to make him call me his sugar mommy is on now.' Lilly thought.
[Ding! New mission unlocked]
[Mission: Sugar Mommy]
[Description: Make Willam admit that you're his sugar mommy.]
[Reward: Unknown]
'Huh? What was that?' Lilly asked in confusion.
[I told you the system may generate missions based on your decisions. Like if you choose to pursue someone who isn't a target of the system, then I will make a mission for it.]
'Ah! So you actually made that mission because I decided that?' Lilly asked.
[Preety much, Yeah.]
'Then what's with that reward?' Lilly asked.
[It's just a random mission I made, so the rewards would also be random; that's why there is written unknown.]
'And it's the same reason not for having any punishment and time limit?' Lilly asked, already knowing the answer but still asking for confirmation.
[Yup, since the mission is technically made by you, there are no restrictions or anything. You can do whatever you want with it.]
'Ah! Zain! You're really amazing. Thanks a lot for that.' Lilly thanked from the bottom of her heart.
[Mention not. This system is basically yours, so there is no need to thank me.]
'Hehe, so you're mine now.' Lilly giggled and said.
[Of course, mistress.]
'Tsk, you're not fun. Let me focus on my future sugar baby.' Lilly clicked her tongue and said.
Fortunately, the time when she talked with Zain wasn't real-world time. She could speak with him for hours, and it was a few minutes for the outside world.
She again focused her attention back on Willam, who had gained some clarity. He was looking at her with various emotions swirling in his eyes.
"Though the thing about me curing is true. I'm a bit unique existence and can save you without killing you." Lilly said.
"Really? You aren't pulling another prank on me?" Willam asked cautiously.
"Haha, although I would love to play with you, now isn't the time." Lilly laughed and said. "I can really save you."
Willam got hopeful and asked, "Then please, can you save me?"
Lilly made a thoughtful expression and asked, "What's in it for me? I mean, it's a taxing process."
William's mood dropped as he said, "I don't really have anything to give you; even my sword is useless to you. You can just tell me what you want, and I'll try my best to give you that."
A mischievous grin appeared on Lilly's face as she said, "I want you."
