Find Me A Job!

"Poor daddy was the first to suffer the aftermath of his daughter's stupidity. Thank God she priotised him as she should or I might have quit this mission, she can't be dumb at the point of death, then what was the whole charede for?" Zhi Ruo spat tapping impatiently on the arm rest.

{You can't do that, host}

"Do what?"

{You can't leave the mission unfinished after accepting it.}

"Sigh. Fair enough."

Zhi Ruo was taken back to the small world. She sat up from the bed and moved off the screen with the picture bumping into a series of unread texts.

"Good day, Min Seok (pleading eyes, heart emoji)"

"I miss you so much. Can't wait for school to resume next week!!!"

"Do you miss me? I'm sure you do. I understand we can't meet because of your strict parents."

"Don't worry, this girlfriend of yours has learnt most of the session's science lessons you would be able to pick up in no time once we resume."

"Call me."

2 Hours Later

"Are you still busy? Young master's life must be hard."

"Let's meet at the usual place at closing time when school resumes okay? I have sooo much to tell, so come."

15 minutes Later

"My gosh, I just found a picture of us together. It's so cute I can't stop staring at it. I'd send it now, don't you think we look cute together?"

"You should smile more often, that way you would be more handsome."

Zhi Ruo eye-read at these texts with a sickly look, twisting her face like she was about to barf.

"What the hell is this?!, No wonder he got tired of her, pestering someone over every little thing, I too would lose interest"

{It's called love host.}

"Love my ass, she is too fucking available. It would be hard to make progress with things as bad as this."

{So what are we going to do now , host. According to the plot, Mi Cha is already making moves at Min Seok in his home, right about now}

"Nothing, at least for now till the school resumes, meeting up with me before resumption wouldn't be a good idea. If suddenly reminded of my past behavior, compared to the Fl his view of her might just improve."

"What percentage favorability does Min Seok have for the both of us?"

{Tae Rin - 10%

 Mi Cha- 35% }

"Just 10% upon all the last Tae Rin had sacrificed. This young master is really cruel!."

"Arrrgh!!!" Zhi Ruo yelled clutching her stomach.

{What's wrong host?!} The system rang in panic.

"When last did this body have a proper meal? , Ugh…"

{ Tae Rin, in a fit to get Min Seok to like her more, starved herself occasionally to get a slimmer body. I believe she ate an apple yesterday's morning . All these are in preparation to surprise him with her change.}

"What?!!!! All for someone who couldn't even acknowledge her at her death, pitiful!! I knew it was bad but didn't expect it to be this bad."

She quickly moved in front of a large mirror rolling her hoodie up, she could see and count her rib bones without having to feel it.

{Meal plan to gain weight is available in the system shop for only 250 experience points.

Points Available: 0

Does host want to take a loan?}

"Why would I want to pay for a weight gain diet. Do you take me for a fool?"

{Ah…} It got caught.

"What are Experience points?"

{ You gain experience points among other points after successfully completing missions in each small world you visit.

The number of points gained depends on the difficulty of the world you visit. Points can be exchanged for special items in the system shop

You have zero points because you haven't conquered any world yet}

"System…"

{I'm here, honorable host.}

"Isn't Tae Rin supposed to be very pretty?" She stared into the mirror cupping her face with her hands."

{ I didn't mean she was without blemishes. Although her skin isn't so great, she might have gotten some scars from peers, who had taught her a lesson for keeping yours truly, for herself.}

"This won't do, even if people won't admit, the first thing you notice about a person is their looks, humans are naturally superficial. It's time for a glow up." Zhi Ruo avowed.

"From Tae Rin's memories, there should be a spa three blocks away from this area, let's visit."

{Host…}

"Yes?" Zhi Ruo sounded irritated , what did it want this time, another scheme to put her in debt.

{You are broke.}

"Ah…." She slumped into the bed like a deflated balloon.

"All look pretty far" She muttered, weighing her options.

{They are the nearest i could find, host. There is scarcity in vacancies.}

"I'm not blaming you. I know that."

"The first one is a no, these legs would fail before getting me to 5 doors, who knows if the recipient would take time to fill it out and the pay is a bit low."

"Cat Cafe… could work too but it's too far from school, I might just arrive late each time, how could I possibly keep my job?. Nope."

"Cleaning is a straight no. It screams uncertainty, we don't need that now."

"That leaves us the Maid Cafe."
