137 Be Careful What You Wish For (2/2)

Sofony saw her man giving him a grin before starting the engine. ”Good.”

Moments later, as she wallowed on the feelings that drowned her whole being, thoughts of wanting to make this scene last forever crossed her mind. She felt that the current scene was perfect. There wouldn't be many words exchanged between them, but the atmosphere around them would remain light and warm, free from worries and grievances.

If only this kind of wishes could come true...

When she woke up to the reality that she was a host now living under the constant threat of death and immorality, her face fell, together with her good mood.

The thought made her whisper a wish to herself.

To become stronger.

For the very first time in her life, she wanted to level up so badly and not be the one always living tensely due to the thought that there were several hostile and crazy higher leveled hosts lurking out there.

She also hadn't forgotten yet that she was in a world were not few non-hosts thrived.

The future was so uncertain. There were threats everywhere. Threats to their lives, properties, and relationship. Just what could allow the scene today to be their forever? What could take all her worries and fears away?

Ironically, after she wracked her brains for countermeasures and solutions for her dilemma, everything that came to mind boil down to only one real resolution.

'Level up. Earn more points. Increase stats and skills. Fill my inventory to the brim.'

'In short, maximize the use of the damnable system.'

She closed her eyes and hid her face by lowering her head and letting the hair shield her expression from Gio.

She smiled bitterly at the conclusion that she arrived at.

This has always been a fact glaring at her. But she kept refusing it before due to her moral compass which she found so hard to give up or alter.

Now, what could she do when her situation was like this? She had no choice now and could only reluctantly accept that the system was her only means to fight for the future.

This was why she finally decided to not be so passive anymore. This was why despite her mixed emotions about it, she proactively asked for a mission from the system and endured its ear and head-splitting laughter for so long.

Yet as people say, be careful what you wish for...

Because what you'd get might not be so desirable at all.

[DING!]
