The moment that he tapped on the submit button, a blaring siren resounded within Aecateon’s ears.

With contempt in his eyes, Aectaeon watched as the series of transparent panels flashed quickly before his eyes. He slumped further down his seat as he felt the frustration coursing through his veins. 

‘There’s not much time between the Guessing Opportunity and the next transmigration. Meaning, I have to correctly predict what’s the last letter on my own. Luck better be on my side or hell be damned. That artefact will be an important key to my survival..’

As he thought of his unfortunate fate, Aectaeon began to regather his resolve. 

The man wanted to escape this system of endless transmigrations. However, if fate refused to align with his wishes, then there’s one thing left for him to do. 

And that was to set the system ablaze with the own fire that it created.

To Aectaeon's relief, Eveia didn't move from her spot right away.

'Is she not going to follow the professor? If not, then it works out for me. Now, I don't know if she will stay for longer. Should I strike up a conversation?'

Aectaeon contemplated for a few seconds, ultimately deciding on approaching Eveia. He quickly got on his feet and walked towards the woman. Once he was in front of her, a panel appeared.

'Does the praise function even work? Will this increase a character's favorability?'

Although he was questioning the option, Aectaeon went ahead and tried it.

'Hmm, these phrases don't look like they will help. After interacting with this woman, I can tell that she's not the simple type. If anything, she's too stoic, almost the same as me.'
