Chapter 3: The Challenge

After completing his first task and receiving his reward, Raghu felt a surge of confidence. The system had proven to be more than just a figment of his imagination. It was real, and it was here to help him. As he finished updating his status, a new notification popped up.

"New task available," the system announced.

Raghu clicked on the notification eagerly.

**Task:**

- Code a program that can display a result. The program must contain a minimum of 200 lines of code.

- Reward: Direct download of the Basic All Computer Skills Book into your brain.

Raghu's eyes widened in excitement. The idea of having all that knowledge instantly was thrilling. He had to complete this task no matter what. He decided to create a simple yet extensive program to meet the requirement. After brainstorming for a while, he settled on developing a basic inventory management system.

He started by outlining the features:

1. Add, update, and delete inventory items.

2. Display inventory list.

3. Search for items.

4. Calculate total inventory value.

With a clear plan in mind, Raghu began coding. He spent hours each day, working meticulously to ensure his program met the 200-line requirement. He wrote and rewrote sections of code, learning and debugging as he went along. The challenge was intense, but his determination never wavered.

Finally, after two weeks of hard work, Raghu completed his program. It was a simple console application, but it worked flawlessly. He ran the final test, and the system displayed the result perfectly.

"System, I've completed the task. What now?" Raghu asked, his voice brimming with anticipation.

"Congratulations, host. You have successfully coded a program with a minimum of 200 lines. Your reward: Direct download of the Basic All Computer Skills Book into your brain," the system announced.

Raghu felt a slight tingling sensation in his head, and then everything went dark for a moment. When he opened his eyes, everything seemed clearer. He felt an overwhelming surge of knowledge.

After a good night's sleep, Raghu woke up feeling different. It was as if a veil had been lifted from his mind. He understood complex concepts effortlessly, and he realized he knew much more than just the basics. He felt confident that he could now work as a top tech manager in any MNC company in the world.

Curious and a bit confused, Raghu asked, "System, why do I know so much more than just the basics?"

"Basic in the terms of this system means a standard knowledge of computers in Tier 3 galaxies," the system replied.

"What is a Tier 3 galaxy?" Raghu asked, his curiosity piqued.

"You do not have enough authority to view the data, host," the system responded.

Raghu pondered the system's response, intrigued by the mention of other galaxies and the authority levels. It seemed there was much more to the system than he had initially thought. With his newfound knowledge and skills, he felt ready to take on whatever challenges lay ahead. The journey was just beginning, and Raghu was determined to see it through to the end.
