When Soul came to his senses and stared blankly at what was in front of him. He was in a dark place filled with a bad odor and the strong smell of trash, his nose scrunched up as he blocked half of his face with his robe. He was wearing a dirty faded green robe, long black hair in an unruly bun, and a plated silver hairpin stuck on it. He looks around,

Everything looks ancient and old, Where is he? This is...an alley?

[Answering host, you are in a World continent that is similar to your original world's Chinese civilization] Suibian informed its Host. Soul dazedly nodded before trying to get up, by then he noticed his extremely poor state. His body was thin and very weak, he could feel his skin sagging a little, yellowish in color, and bones could be poked too easily, his knees and legs were both shaky, and his hands and feet were with wounds, scars, and blisters.

'Suibian, My state is so bad.'

[I know]

'Did you choose this body?'

[I have no authority to direct the Host to a resident in the Mission World]

Soul sighed in pity before he focused on his mission.

'Can I now please take the Story and the Main Mission of this world?'

[Affirmative. This is about the Villainess named the Third Princess of Zen Kingdom. She was a sweet, smart, and sensible princess at a young age, and was betrothed to her childhood crush by oral agreement, Jin Yuan, The General's first legitimate son from the left side of the court. The conflict happens when a month before the announcement of their engagement, Jin Yuan is rushing to the King's throne room with a young lady with a beauty that can destroy cities. The next few months were the worst for the princess. That Jin Yuan flaunted his affair with the foreign beauty around the kingdom which almost gave the princess high blood pressure and shame on her whole being. Infuriated and blinded with jealousy, she sent her father's black guards to sentence death to that woman, but they didn't know that the woman was a skilled assassin and the 1st princess of another kingdom, Zou Kingdom. The same night the King's black guards charged the location of the said beauty, the Zou kingdom's assassins broke into the palace and killed every royalty living, not even the servants and guards were spared. The beauty was to be the Empress of the dethroned kingdom and she genuinely loved the Eldest Son of the general, so they married and became the rulers of the new Zen Kingdom, the end.

Main Mission: To make the Zou Kingdom reach its downfall [5000 pts]

Side Task [1]: Never let the First Princess of the Zou Kingdom succeed to infatuate Jin Yuan [6000 pts]

Side Task [3]: Make the Third Princess the most remarkable person [1000pts]

Side Task [3]: Save the Royal Family of Zen Kingdom [2500 pts]]

Soul was astounded, A FOUR DIGIT POINTS?! Were the systems ever so generous? Sensing the bewilderment of its host, Suibian told him,

[An upgrade was given from the mainstream of SYSTEMS, all rewards will be UP but the help that the system can aid Host will be minimized. So host, select 5 fixed options of SYSTEM for you to be an aid, other options will be eradicated]

'Wait wait, before that, can I know what's my role here? You're practically making me go leaps and bounds of the unreachable,' judging by the state he is in, to mingle with the royalties- it's simply impossible!!

[You are.... *bzzzt* error! a bug has been detected! system malfunctioning *bzzzt*

SUIBIAN IS O F F L I N E]

*Dun Dun Dun*

Soul was left there in the same dark alley, with a small scroll containing his missions. His system went offline without anything to give him a golden finger (an advantage) on this Mission World, Soul nervously gulped and tried to calm himself down...

'WHAT AM I GONNA DO?!!!! HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO CLEAR THIS MISSION IF ONE BIT OF GUIDANCE I CAN'T HAVE?! AND THE LEVEL OF THE MISSIONS IS BEYOND ONE COULD EVEN GUARANTEE TO SUCCESS! BUT HEAVENS! MY DISPOSITION AND THE TARGET PEOPLE ARE AS FAR AS HEAVEN AND EARTH! *sobs*'

After finally calming down, Soul started to get his wits right and remembered all the main mission and side missions given, thanks to his good and photographic memory too. He then started to wander stealthily under the moonlight whilst trying to save every bit of energy he had left,

He noted the big teahouse, the Herbal and medicinal store, an auctioning house, the brothel, the square (or park), the lake, the mansions of the generals from left and right, and lastly the Royal Palace. By the time he finished his wanderings, the sun was starting to rise. Soul thought of a suitable job for his 10-11 years-old looking body and his name to accommodate here, and he went with " Bai Zhīshì "

'Basically, right now I look like a beggar and have no strength to do strenuous work and I need to be somewhere I could leisurely work but also be of use. For that point, I could be housed and nurtured... haizz, I JUST HOPE THE PLOT WON'T BE SO SOON WITHOUT ME BEING SO HOPELESS! *SOB SOB*'

'Now then, From all the landmarks I reviewed, the best and most common tourist spot (he just means with more people) are both the Teahouse or The Auction house. Both are great for work, but low or high jobs, it'll be both a struggle,'

'I could try to talk to big people to get more communication and understanding of this world, but the disposition of my work will fall too low to do just that,'

'Trying to show up with new things and trinkets will get their attention but I am just a nobody here, I CAN'T PRODUCE ANYTHING AS A MASS PRODUCT!*sighs* TEAHOUSE OR AUCTION HOUSE?! CHOOSE ALREADY, SOUL!!!* facepalm*️'

.... A thought suddenly crossed his mind... Why not both?

And with that, he thought of a plan to make it a success.
