CHAPTER 2: BULLY ME, NIAM

Finn had been staring at the classroom door for ten minutes.

Finn, after waking up in a foreign home as the only son of a single mother, followed the system's instructions as he was enrolled in a new school.

As an 18-year-old boy, it was only right for him to continue schooling, and after knowing that his first target was also a student in his class, Finn had no more complaints.

Anyway, he found out his brain was exceedingly brilliant, and it was easy for him to remember whatever he was taught.

So, why not start the mission right away?

But how was he supposed to start? Finn had no idea.

[Host, you have a year to win over the first target]

The system reminded Finn out of nowhere.

Finn panicked.

He bit the cover of his pen, and his eyes wandered to the door again.

He'd been in class for two days already, but he hadn't even seen the first target yet.

All Finn knew was that the target was a big bully who derived joy from bullying others.

How was he supposed to get close to someone like this?

Finn felt troubled.

[Host, the target is on his way to the class]

Finn's eyes widened.

The target was around!

He pressed a hand on his chest as he fixed his eyes on the door, waiting for the mysterious target who would be his first man.

"System, when will I meet my second target?" Finn asked, still biting his pen cover.

[Host should focus on the first target]

The system's tone was cold.

Finn shrugged.

He was used to this.

Right then, a tall, lean, and handsome youngster walked into the class.

Every part of him oozed arrogance that would keep people at arm's length from him.

He didn't even spare the teacher a glance as he walked to his desk as if he were the lord of the class.

Finn felt his heart racing rapidly.

"Hey, System, the first target is so handsome." Finn drooled.

He'd never expect he was a face-con, but his heart wouldn't stay calm after seeing that face.

"System, he's so handsome." He repeated again, revealing a very beautiful smile that dazzled his classmates who were paying attention to him.

The system, which had been speaking from Finn's mind, appeared before him in the shape of a ball and rolled.

'Host, can you shut the fuck up and focus on the mission?'

'If you fail to win his heart in a year, you might really lose your memories forever.' It threatened.

Finn's eyes twitched slightly. "Oh, right." Even his tone was nonchalant.

What was memory when a handsome dude was standing right before him?

Finn really didn't see any importance in that!

The system felt like it suddenly had a headache.

'Host, Host, the target is leaving the class!' It shouted.

Finn's eyes widened. "Oh, right." He jolted up from his seat and ran forward.

He blocked the target's way and lowered his head, unable to look up as his heart was racing too fast.

Standing before someone so handsome made Finn feel too flustered.

He really didn't know what to do next.

"Move." The target's voice reached his ears.

Finn trembled slightly.

'The target's voice is so sexy...' He blinked hard.

The system considered uninstalling itself.

Why was it stuck with this sort of host????

'His name is Niam.' It reminded.

No matter what, it still had to continue the mission, right?

Even if it wanted to strangle the host right now.

Finn nodded slightly, trying hard to stop the blush that was slowly creeping up his cheeks.

His eyes held innocence and excitement as he raised his head to look at the target up close.

Finn almost hiccupped.

The target was really too good-looking!

"Niam," Finn called.

That was the first word that came to his mind.

He saw the target's eyes waver before focusing intensely on him.

Finn's cheeks burned.

What was he supposed to say?

How was he supposed to get close to the target?

'System, tell me, what do I say to him?'

Finn had no knowledge of how to win someone over.

Ever since he came to this world, everyone he knew had always approached him first because of his looks.

Finn knew he was extremely good-looking, and this had given him the chance to get acquainted with many of his classmates even though he hadn't known them for long.

However, this was the target, and the target was known as an arrogant bully.

Finn knew the target would never approach him first like others.

He needed to be the one to do something.

'Bite him.' The system snapped.

Finn's eyes flickered as if he were thinking about it. But then, he shook his head.

'That doesn't sound right.' He mumbled.

The system turned blue.

'He might hate me instead.' Finn added.

Finn opened his mouth.

Closed it.

Opened it again.

Say something!

His brain froze.

Then, the first words that came out were___

"Niam... bully me, please."

Yes, this was the right word to say.

The target was a bully, and being his target was the best way to get closer to him.

The target's eyes darkened. "What?" His voice turned hoarse.

Finn bit his lower lip, and his eyes turned crescent. "Bully me," He whispered.

He saw the target's eyes darkened even more.

Finn's heart skipped another beat.

Would this work?

The target's eyes lingered longer than expected before his expression returned to normal.

He turned around, "Come with me." The target said and walked out of the class.

Finn's eyes widened in joy.

Was it that easy to get close to the target?

"I'm coming right away!" Finn shouted as he ran out of the class.

The system facepalmed.

This was the first time it saw someone being excited to be bullied.

This Host... it wondered why Mother system put him in charge of him.

'This little system is tired...'

****************

Finn followed behind the target with happiness blooming in his heart.

Wasn't this too fast?

The target was so handsome and nice. Finn really loved it this way.

However, why was the target taking him to the empty music room?

Oh... the target must want to bully him there~

'System, I think I'm about to finish the first mission!'
