24 Quest Abuse (1/2)
”You!” A man in a soldier uniform stopped a girl in the middle of the street. ”You come over here for a minute!”
A girl with light blue hair stopped in place immediately and glanced at the man in front of her with a flustered expression. ”W-w-what does the great Seojoon-sama wish to have from me?”
Seojoon raised an eyebrow before murmuring to himself, ”Sama? Ah, she must be Japanese....”
”Excuse me?”
”Never mind. I have a question for you. Are you willing to help homeless children at the church?”
”I-I would love too!” Said the girl eagerly.
However, Seojoon could tell that she hadn't received a quest from her expression. This meant that he couldn't give out quests at any given time. Since a direct question didn't work, Seojoon went with plan B.
”Ahhhh, the children are so poor and helpless. It pains me to see them starve out on the streets and beg for food everyday.”
”I-I agree!”
Tch, still a failure. An indirect request didn't work as well. Seojoon moved on to plan C. The indirect yet direct request.
”If you go to the church, you will find out that it accepts donations. These donations go into feeding the homeless adults and children's that beg on the streets. Please. Can you go over there and....”
”Donate?” Finished the girl.
”Yes, please donate.”
However, once again, Seojoon knew that he had failed once more. Instead of getting elated at receiving a quest, the girl only gazed at Seojoon with curiosity and a hunt of admiration. Frustrated, Seojoon sat down on the side of the road and let out a heavy sigh.
At this point, Seojoon gave up on abusing the quest giving function he had as an NPC. Although he would be able to help a lot by exterminating the wolf population, he was still a little let down at the fact that he would not be able to get other players to help the children.
”Are you okay?”
The girl he was talking too had sat next to him at one point and was now giving Seojoon a concerned look.
Seojoon gave her a wry grin. ”I'm perfectly fine. I just feel a little defeated right now. Nothing to big.”
”May I ask why, Seojoon-sama?”
