THE BENEFACTOR (English) 12
Jana didn't get the chance to know what Gio's reaction would be like once those words entered his ears. The simple sentence didn't reach the man, courtesy of her trusted companion in this crime, Denise. It was one of those days she decided to be smart and do it her own way. Denise became deaf to her every orders and chose to act according to whim. At first, Jana almost went nuts in worry. One awful mistake and it will crush Gio's fragile opinion of her and their thin thread of friendship will go flushed down the pipes. The stakes were high and she can't afford to lose. Before she could track down the woman and personally drag her out of the hall, Denise halted all of her complaints with just two words. "Howdy, Gio!" Denise shamelessly took the seat beside Giovanni. Jana can see the man's expression through the spy cam. "I see you're enjoying your time here. Oh, you look more handsome than before. Can I hold your cheeks for a moment? You nailed that look! So adorbs." It's clea

Jana woke up with an intense pain in her stomach. The residual ache on her guts made her squirm while whimpering on the side. It was cold. When the temperature registered her mind, it sent an awkward tingle on her spine. Jana struggled to push down the need to vomit. Right now she needed the presence of her Auntie Sera. “Host, there's a pill than can help you stabilize in no time. I can find the most affordable tablet in the system. Would you like one?” 'How much? Bring me one.' Jana gritted her teeth. She can't even sit because of her legs. She could only roll on the smelly asphalt. "Vivien… please." “Host, it's 150 per tablet.” Jana made a brief calculation in her mind before sputtering, 'You think I can afford that? I can't have zero points again! Your game will delete me! Vivien, just choke on your spit!' Her system became quiet. Jana reckoned she might be sulking right now. 'I don't care. She can't even help me? What AI!' "Queenie, are you awake now? Tsk. Stop rolling.
THE BENEFACTOR (English) 14
If Jana could have a chance to extend one hour of Queenie's life, she would do something she never thought to do before. It is to flip Queenie's childhood photos one by one and see what kind of person she is. The woman is full of contradictions. She did everything to make a person detest her so they won't ask for a chance to get closer. To get to know her. Because even the 'old' Queenie didn't know the distinctions between the foods she likes and what she don't want. The lines distinguishing both of them has long been burned that when she decided to turn back and live her life the way she wanted it, it was long gone. "I tried to tell you before not to open yourself to wrong people but then look, Queenie! You still did!" Silvia was hysterical while laughing. Jana was motionless as she tightens the grip on her head. Silvia decided that she's not close enough. The woman held her head and bashed it on the floor once. Jana was still at the confused state because of the pain. For the f

Jana lost her consciousness the moment Gio called Queenie's name. She felt resigned and tired. There's no way her face was still attractive after being hit countless times on the pungent floor. She's bruised up black and blue. Everything hurts for her. Jana doesn't have enough confidence left to turn and ask him if he's okay. Giovanni had seen Queenie on her most pitiful state. She felt weak in the knees. This trauma will be imbedded in her soul forever. It's a question if she can still sleep without the lights on after this. Jana reckons she might never close her eyes again. The smell of cold sterilization and detergent from the blanket welcomed Jana’s consciousness back to the present. She doesn’t know how long had she gone asleep, or how huge was the damage inflicted on her during the kidnapping incident. ‘I’m in a hospice.’ Jana sighed with relief. ‘Much better than that disgusting place.’ "Hey…" A warm, slightly calloused hand touched Jana's face. She opened her eyes in ab
THE BENEFACTOR (English) Task World 2:The Augustus' Fourth Year Class Of 2046
SECOND INSTANCE: The Augustus' Fourth Year Class Of 2046 Jana opened her eyes only to see a burnt face in front. Her first reaction was to scream on top of her lungs before rolling to the side. She then noticed that her body has been lying down for quite a while now. Probably sleeping or taking a nap because of the sluggish feeling in her limbs. Jana inspected the scalded head. It was hanged by a rope to the ceiling. She was relieved to know that the face doesn't belong to any human-like figure or she's going to loose her last screws in the head. Jana wasn't over Silvia's stunned expression when she died. There's no way she's going to agree seeing another in this second mission! “Host, do you like to open the plot summary now?” Vivien inquired. “Welcome to the second world! Only one instance left before the host can enter the centre!” "How can I be optimistic about that right now? Do you see that mess hanging down? This doesn't give me a good feeling, Vivien!" Jana sat up fro

"Vivien, is there any way to know who's the other player within the game?" Jana posed to see if the maroon plaid skirt suits her legs. She didn't like how short her legs looked from afar. Compared to the female protagonist, she is a total midget! "I mean, I have to know them. As a system, you're supposed to have cheats for me, right?" Vivien went quiet. As if it doesn't know why Jana was asking so much when she already got the best parts. Jana hates how useless she is before but now she's thinking if Vivien has another purpose other than giving her hell. “Host, that's something no one can interfere. It's destiny. Nobody knows how these things work.” "Oh, so you've got no use on that?" Jana stalked inside Myriad's dorm and noticed that aside from her clothes, there's not much personal belongings inside. Jana frowned. If she happened to own a dorm like this, she will bring everything from her house for an easy access. That way, she won't miss home that much. Maybe Myriad has nothin

Jana spent the morning getting to know Austin and asking about the things she barely understood. The guy thought she wants to have a small chat with no specific topic direction. Above all, he's glad that Myriad finally knew how to say other words than "no" and "stop". Austin felt as though this new Myriad is his new best friend. And so he never questioned her strangeness. Jana thought the one who made this new ranking system among students is plain stupid. Austin said the director was awarded with his ingenuity and tireless work to improve this. People who graduated from Augustus Middle High either becomes a philanthropist or a medical doctor. The school promotes that student should have morality engraved in their bones above wisdom. 'They can't even talk properly without looking from left to right.' Jana sighed. Students earned their ranks by merits. Merits are given once a student does something good. The staff can't be biased upon issuing points because every points listed are c

"The first class got canceled," a shrill voice echoed inside the restroom, "it's the first time that it happened. Maybe they're about to remove the ranking system?" An airy voice said with a serious note, "Remove the ranking system? Fat chance, Melody. More like, they're deciding whether to reduce the merit giving standards. I can only drop out of school if that happened. No need to torture myself with this." "As if!" This time, Jana pictured a chubby girl with an angry expression. "There's no way I'll quit just because of those petty reasons. So what? We can only strive harder! If you're planning to quit with this little pressure, then don't study at all! You're already lazy on studying. What more if we'll graduate and work somewhere?" "Ugh…" Melody groaned. "I hate that she's right, Tasha." "Sarah, I was just mouthing off, okay? I'm not planning to quit. It's the last year, I can handle carrying more loads of panic attacks and pretending to be good." "Nasty." Melody humped.
