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

Upon the appearance of the panel he dreaded to see, Aectaeon couldn’t stop himself from groaning inwardly.

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.

Game Title Guessing System: Transmigration Ltd.

Standing in front of the stairs to the stage, Aectaeon heaved a sigh.

He wasn't nervous. Or so he thought.

It's just his imagination that he wasn't nervous. Trust me.

He put a hand over his chest, taking another breath of frustr-- No, as Aectaeon claimed, encouragement.

'Alright, I know I can do this. There's nothing more terrifying than having my salary cut off. There's nothing more terrifying than getting fired because the company is downsizing.'

Aectaeon's way of encouraging himself was weird. But, to each their own. Earning money was the highlight of his day back on Earth. Of course, he would be devastated if he lost his job. How would he earn money then?

'Once I'm done with this, I swear I'm going to lock myself up in my room.'

That's impossible, Aectaeon. The system wouldn't allow you to just have the time of your life. When would the system have its fun of you? When would it have the time to take out its grievances on you?
