15 Designing A Cafe (1/2)

”System, what sort of bull**** mission is this?”Alan asked incredulously.

”Host, system thinks the description is pretty self explanatory...did Host suffer another head wound when system wasn't paying attention?”

Alan coughed and said, ”System, I thought the goal was to make me the owner of the world's most luxurious cafe?Why are you suddenly teaching me to be an interior designer?”

”Host, in order to be the owner of the world's most luxurious cafe, you need to understand what constitutes luxury.The Decor Rating function will allow Host to better understand what sort of interior makes the cafe luxurious.”

Alan shook his head.”It's not that hard to be luxurious system.”

”We shall see Host.”

Alan was helpless against the system, and decided to just humor it.

He started up the Decor Rating function.

His surroundings suddenly changed.The space was divided into equally spaced squares that were outlined with glowing lines.He saw a menu to the right of his vision which allowed him to access different types of furniture, appliances, even types of coffee.At the top left he saw a number, an extremely familiar number.It was the amount of the loan he had received.As he watched it started decreasing.

He panicked.”System, what's with the money decreasing?”

”Did Host already forget?Host purchased this location.Thus, the system is subtracting the cost of the purchase from the original amount.”

As Alan watched the money stopped decreasing and held steady.It was still an impressive amount.

Alan started fiddling with the Decor Rating function, experimenting with what he could do.

He discovered that, much like a simulation game where one builds an amusement park or a city, the menu separated items by category and told him how much each of them cost.

He clicked on a sofa to see what happened.Suddenly the sofa materialized in front of him.

He gasped in shock.”System, I take it back, this is a pretty impressive reward.”
