After deciding to go to school together tomorrow, Yuan Yu sent a message to the Class Teacher on his phone and walked straight to his room. After returning to his room, he looked at the system that had followed him and reminded it.
“It’s time to sleep…”
“It is time to sleep…”
The system nodded in agreement, but then noticed Yuan Yu staring intently at her and couldn't help but shrink back.
“Why are you looking at me?”
“What do you think…”
Seeing Yuan Yu gradually approach, the system kept backing away until she hit the wall.
She put her hands in front of her, waving them wildly, and shouted,
“No! This is a crime! And you can’t… Ugh! Ugh!”
Before the system could finish speaking, Yuan Yu, with a black line on his face, pinched her mouth shut, picked her up, and walked towards the door.
“Idiot! This is my room! You thought letting you sleep here for one night made it yours, huh?!”
“Ugh ugh~”
Yuan Yu directly carried her to the door of the room and threw her out.
But the next moment, his leg was hugged.
“Don’t! Your place is like a haunted house now, only this room is a bit better!”
The system pointed with a tear-streaked face at the dark red liquid spilled all over the corridor and some monster corpses in the dark corners.
This is what Cards look like when they die; without a Card Master to turn them back into broken Cards and put them away, they just appear as corpses.
“I forgot!”
Yuan Yu slapped his head. Yesterday, he was busy until dawn for Teacher Tang and forgot to find someone to deal with these monster corpses!
Many rooms were either destroyed by them or splattered with their blood, no longer a place for people to stay.
“Alright, alright, I’ll reluctantly let you sleep in my room… on the chair.”
“Hmm… Hmm?”
The system saw Yuan Yu shrug and walk back into the room, preparing to nod with relief, but suddenly realized something was wrong.
“What! You actually want me to sleep on a chair?!”
The system was instantly furious and rushed into the room, just about to argue with Yuan Yu when she saw that Yuan Yu had already flipped the mattress over and was sound asleep on it.
“Instant sleep? Is that real?”
The system frowned and leaned close to Yuan Yu, staring intently at his face.
Breathing normal, expression unchanged…
An hour later…
“Damn it! This dead pig!”
The system held her breath, feeling uncomfortable all over.
After staring intently at Yuan Yu and walking around the bed seven or eight times, she seemed to deflate, sitting on the chair with a look of utter despair.
Then she picked up the snacks placed nearby and started munching on them, still staring intently at Yuan Yu as if she were biting him.
But as time passed, the snacks were finished, and she was just boredly propping up her chin. At some point, her little head started nodding off.
After she unconsciously fell asleep, Yuan Yu continued to snore, slightly opening one eye. Seeing her sprawled on the chair without any regard for her image, a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.
She didn't directly pull him up and throw him on the floor. Was it because she had to follow some rule, or was she… kind?
Heh heh, how interesting…
Yuan Yu slowly closed his eyes. This time, he was truly asleep.
The next day
The biological clock of an early riser made Yuan Yu wake up automatically, staring blankly at the ceiling. It took him a full 5 minutes to fully come to his senses.
His gaze slowly shifted to the chair beside him, and his eyes suddenly narrowed.
The system was gone!
She actually woke up earlier than him!
However, when his gaze dropped, the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily.
The system's hair and feet were already on the floor, with only her butt and waist hanging on the chair, her entire body almost forming an N-shape.
“Indestructible yet able to soften like this, the system truly is a magical creature…”
Yuan Yu slowly got up with some emotion, stretched, and then quickly got out of bed to wash up.
During this process, he also contacted a specialized housekeeping team. His place indeed needed a good cleaning…
When he was ready to leave, he found that the system was still in that position, sound asleep and unresponsive.
Yuan Yu narrowed his eyes, thought for a moment, and slowly revealed a playful smile.
“So greedy for sleep, then don’t blame me…”
He slowly walked forward and extended his demonic claw towards the system…
…
Amidst a series of shakes, the system slowly opened her eyes, her lifeless eyes staring somewhat rigidly at the constantly swaying, blurry legs.
Who am I?
Where am I?
What am I doing?
These three questions constantly swirled in her mind, making her even more confused.
“Yo~ You’re awake. How do you feel?”
Yuan Yu’s playful voice sounded, instantly snapping the system awake.
Looking around, she saw pairs of eyes, like those looking at a rare animal, constantly drifting towards her, and she herself was being carried on Yuan Yu’s shoulder!
She was directly carried to school!!
“Ah! Bastard, what are you doing! Let me down!”
As her words fell, she felt a dizzying sensation, her entire body spinning several times in the air like a large windmill. By the time she came to her senses, her feet were already on the ground.
“Ah! Bastard!”
The system covered her dizzy head, unable to help but curse loudly.
But Yuan Yu had already walked forward on his own. Her face turned red with anger, and she immediately covered her face and rushed towards him, leaping up for a headbutt as she got close.
Thump~
Yuan Yu casually sidestepped, and she flew past him, then let out a dull thud.
“Student Yuan, is this your younger sister?”
As the people around him gasped, clutching their waists, a calm voice sounded.
It was the bespectacled Teacher Wang from yesterday's class. His face was calm, one hand in his pocket, the other gently pushing up his glasses, as if he didn't care at all that someone had just headbutted him in the waist.
Yuan Yu looked at him and smiled awkwardly.
“Ah haha! Good morning, Teacher Wang. This is my younger sister, Yuan Yuan, who I told you about, she just arrived in Jianghai City. Uh… by the way, are you okay?”
“What could be wrong with me? Hurry and take her to the classroom to prepare, the Awakening Ceremony is about to begin.”
He instructed calmly, then turned and left. His speed was very fast, but every step was steady, his upper body completely without any undulation. If you didn't look at his legs, it was as if he was floating.
“…That looks painful.”
Yuan Yu unconsciously rubbed his waist and picked up the system, who was sitting blankly on the ground…
No, the system seemed to be offline!
Those emotionless crimson eyes, calm expression, her entire being like an exquisite doll.
Now this was the real Yuan Yuan.
Was the system too embarrassed to face anyone, actually starting to escape reality?
Yuan Yuan looked at Yuan Yu and calmly called out,
“Brother…”
Yuan Yu nodded, then tentatively asked,
“Hmm… you know what to do, right?”
Yuan Yuan nodded calmly.
“Awakening…”
Yuan Yu nodded. It seemed the system hadn't monopolized the memories.
And these two seemed a bit extreme; one was like a powder keg that exploded with the slightest touch, while the other seemed uninterested in anything, showing no reaction unless he was really harsh with her.
After Yuan Yu brought her to sit in the back row of the classroom, the surrounding students quickly made space as if they had seen a ghost, and the area around Yuan Yu instantly became empty.
Those who had changed seats huddled together, whispering,
“Holy crap! Is Yu Ge that arrogant now?! Bringing a girl directly to school?!”
“Beast! She looks so young, it’s hard to say if she’s even twelve or thirteen!”
“Don’t blame Yu Ge, she’s really cute!”
“!”
The surrounding people uniformly shot looks of disgust at the boy who had spoken.
“What kind of look is that?! Isn’t she cute?!”
“This isn’t about whether she’s cute or not, it’s… it’s the kind that’s very ‘punishable’!”
“Enough with the ruckus. Do you know who that is? How dare you spread rumors so casually!”
Zhao Gui, with a righteous expression, interrupted their heated discussion.
Someone tentatively said,
“The girl Yu Ge brought?”
Zhao Gui nodded directly.
“Exactly!”
“Ah!”
Then Zhao Gui shared with them what he had seen on the way, and everyone's eyes widened.
“Old Wang was ambushed?”
“Old Wang’s kidney is ruined?”
“Old Wang had his kidney taken?”
“…”
Zhao Gui looked at them in confusion. He didn't expect their focus to be on Old Wang’s kidney, and why was it getting more and more ridiculous?
As he, with unease, and they, with excitement, discussed whether Old Wang’s kidney had been gone for a long time, which was why he felt nothing,
A ray of light instantly swept across the surroundings, and everything in the classroom seemed to be covered in a light veil.
Dense light rays intertwined within the classroom, like a fairyland.
“The Awakening Ceremony begins. Students whose student numbers are called, please come forward.”
Teacher Wang appeared on the podium at some point. He lowered his head slightly, and the white light reflected by his glasses made his eyes unreadable.
However, a smile seemed to be on the corner of his mouth, with a hint of ferocity.
The few people who had just been discussing kidneys immediately closed their mouths in fear.
“He shouldn’t have heard, right?”
Zhao Gui cautiously asked the others, but saw them staring at him with the look of someone watching an idiot.
Maybe he didn't hear it before, but now that you're saying it to his face, how could he not hear it?!!
“Zhao Gui!”
A roar made Zhao Gui tremble all over, and he stood up with a pale face.
“Come up for awakening!”
“Ah! No…”
Zhao Gui was about to say, 'Isn't it by student number?' when he saw Teacher Wang's ferocious smile seem to grow a little more, and he quickly shut up and scurried up.
A phantom light sphere had appeared on the podium at some point, and Teacher Wang directly motioned for him to put his hand inside.
A moment later, the light sphere glowed blue. A hint of surprise flashed in Teacher Wang’s eyes. After patting his shoulder, he announced loudly,
“Blue, Excellent-grade Talent!
Very good, stay after school.”
Zhao Gui’s smile froze before it even formed, and he returned to his seat with blank eyes.
The surrounding classmates immediately congratulated him with envy.
A blue-quality talent!
That guaranteed an extraordinary ability!
“You’re amazing! A blue talent guarantees extraordinary characteristics! You’re going to take off this time!”
“Oh, it’s nothing…”
Zhao Gui responded to the compliments from those around him with a forced smile. Although he was also very happy and excited, the thought of being targeted by Old Wang made his scalp tingle.
“Number One!”
Teacher Wang’s voice sounded again.
A student with student number one nervously walked up, and seeing this, Zhao Gui’s face became even more rigid. However, he knew he was doomed anyway, so he relaxed and focused on bragging and chatting with his classmates.
“White, Common! Number Two!”
Student Number 1 walked down, somewhat disheartened, and returned to his seat.
The classmate next to him felt a little sorry and patted his shoulder, comforting him,
“At least you awakened a talent. Some people might not even be able to awaken a talent and can only be ordinary people.”
Student Number 1 said with a bitter and somewhat sad face,
“But with my talent, there’s no difference between awakening it and not awakening it!”
His deskmate was immediately surprised. What kind of talent was so useless?
“What talent?”
“Minor Luck. Luck increases by 0.001. Is there any difference between this increase and no increase?”
“…”
The classmate next to him clutched his chest and took a few deep breaths. He just knew why that face was so annoying—it turned out he was a European Emperor!!
Cards that increase luck had long been sold out in the market. If calculated at their original price, one point of luck was almost 10 billion, meaning he had directly earned 10 million!
He truly deserved to die!
