Arc 0 My first mission: I’m going to wait for reincarnation

[Main System: Your demo tutorial session has ended.]

[Ah, I remember now, there's a tutorial for every newbie! So those points were fake! Ha ha, I knew it that she doesn't have such amazing skills!] 337 laughed loudly. Its bunny ears trembled along. It was so long that it was assigned with a newbie task taker that it had forgotten that there would be tutorials before the true mission.

Vierre was surprised to hear the annoying voice of 337. She lifted her eyelids and saw the clear sky. "Am I dead? Is this heaven?"

[If you're dead then your soul would be ejected from the mission world.] 337 replied.

"Then what happened just now?" She felt her body shivered recalling the memories seconds ago. The giant frightening python she dreamed turned real. It big mouth in addition to its two big sharp fangs were horrifying that no matter how she tried erasing them from her memories, the scene of nearly being the snake's meal played in her head over and over again.

[It was only a walkthrough.]

"A Walkthrough?"

[Don't you play games? A walkthrough is like a chance to see the game's settings before playing.]

"Then you mean since from the beginning those were unreal?" Vierre asked.

[Yes] During the demo tutorial, everything will be premeditated to make the hosts experience the mission world before actually playing in so in a way everything in the demo version all are surreal, but once the true game starts the hosts will have to be careful.

Vierre plopped her butt. But she felt he hit nothing and looked below.

"Ah!" She stood up and stiffened. She was levitating on the air again just like in the beginning. But the worst part was her trousers and blouse were gone, only the bra and panty remained.

"Didn't you say that they were unreal, how come my clothes are gone?" Vierre hugged herself and cried out in shame.

Ting-

[Requesting host to prepare for the real mission this time…10…9] 337 mercilessly declined to comment and clicked the bomb icon on the screen to start the countdown. It actually didn't forget that Vierre nearly destroyed its bunny costume.

"Give me some clothes first!" Vierre yelled. Her face was red from embarrassment. Even when the company would generously give the employees a vacation by the beach, Vierre would not be in a two piece.

[3…2…1…Sayonara!] 337 laughed eerily in front of the screen.

Suddenly the force keeping her from falling disappeared and her body started descending in a monstrous speed. Her face distorted from the pressure and her hair flown in the air.

Just like in the beginning, she spotted a colossal bird not far from her. She was relieved at first until she saw the bra and undies on her were replaced by the bunny costume the system had given earlier. She glanced at the bird again and terror struck on her face. The image of rabbit carcasses in her mind the time Ling Feng had hunted emerged.

"I'm doomed!" Vierre shouted at 337.

"Take the costume off." Vierre quickly instructed the useless system on her mind.

[What? You're so difficult! Earlier your shouting clothes clothes clothes! And now you're making me take them off?] 337 was ticked by her.

"That bird is going to eat me!"

[There's no way!] 337 replied back and took a look on the target's beast form.

Suddenly there was an ear-piercing cry from the bird unlike in the demo version. The ones who listened would felt its rage. 337 even sensed the unstable emotion from it and was stunned.

"Croo- Croo-"The colossal bird flown to Vierre's direction and opened its beak ready to swallow her again.

"He's going to eat me! Do something!" Vierre demanded while trying to tear off the bunny costume. Right at this moment, she remembered what 337 had said about the clothes having a protective barrier. Therefore she released her hold and only closed her eyes.

337 had thought she had given up and proceeded to check another landing area for its host. However just searching for it in a short time was nerve wracking. One area abruptly popped on the screen and 337 did not hesitate to teleport the host to it.

Poof-

Vierre's figure disappeared.

Ling Feng chomped down its beak but he did not managed to catch Vierre.

An angry chirp escaped his beak and some of the birds resting in the nearby flew away under the wrath of their king.

Splash-

"Eh?" Vierre opened her mouth but water poured in. She flapped her arms and decided to swim first to surface before finding out what was going on.

When she reached the coast, she observed the place she was at and was very glad that the system managed to save her from demise.

"Thank you." Vierre said with genuine gratitude. She exhaled and crawled on the ground.

[I have bad news…] 337 said while watching the price of the teleportation scroll it purchased from the market in haste.

"What could be worse than being dead? Anyway, you could tell me what it is. I won't be angry." Vierre crumpled her clothes and squeezed the water out of them.

[We have a debt.] 337 replied while nearly crying from the number of zeroes on the screen.

"Life has limitless value. No amount could compare to it."

[Then good…My host has a positive attitude. Anyway, the debt isn't that big. It's just 5000 points.] 337 wiped the sweat on its furry forehead.

Vierre stopped what she was doing.

"5…0…0…0…points?" Her heart was ripped by his announcement.

[Yes…]

"5000…..5000….5000…." The amount echoed in her head and her body lost strength directly dropped on the rocks. The wind blew, some birds passed by in the sky and the water rippled.

[Don't be sad] 337 tried to console her.

Vierre didn't say anything and stared dazedly in the air. There was a bunch of numbers taunting her mind while she mumbled 5000.

The she suddenly sat up without saying anything and dove on the water.

[What are you doing?]

"I'm going to wait for reincarnation…" The she opened her mouth and let the water go in without any struggle. Her body floated.

[…] 337 was speechless. Who the f*ck just said that 'life has a limitless value and no amount could compare to it?'

Vierre didn't move and let the water dragged her down.

Hiss-

Something had tickled her left ear. She opened her eyes a bit and saw a blurry face. She only managed to take a peek for a second before passing from air loss. But her thoughts before she died that she was glad that she was assigned with a handsome escort to travel down the spirit world.
