Chapter 3: Quasi-Saint Pill
[Congratulations host for receiving a Rank 7 Quasi-Saint Pill]
"Qu-Quasi-Saint Pill!! System is this really what I think it is!"
Jay was in shock when he heard the prompt from the system, but then suddenly became excited and shouted in disbelief.
[A pill enabling anyone that consumes it to enter the legendary realm of Quasi-Saint.]
"Yes!!" His body shivered uncontrollably in excitement at the mere thought of it being true.
[A pill so powerful that it can literally destroy a small world with just its scent.]
"Damn it system, tell me already and stop leaving me in suspense!"
[No]
"No?? What do you mean No!!?" Taken aback by the system, he exclaimed.
[No, as in it's not the pill host imagine it to be.]
"Then why the heck did you say all that stuff earlier?" Jay gritted his teeth in anger and said.
[The system only voiced out what host was imagining it to be.]
"Then why name the bloody thing 'Quasi-Saint' if it's just a bloody fake!?" He shouted hysterically towards the system.
[The system does not know since it neither created nor named it, but if host wants to know the information about it, here it is.]

Description:
It is said that a Count once bought this heavenly pill for an astronomical amount of 1 million gold coins. Although sadly he DIED soon after.
Creators Note:
It's not the pills fault. It's really not. Trust and believe me when I say that my pill had nothing to do with it. Oh, and also note that all side effects last for at least 24 hours after the pill has been taken....NOT REFUNDABLE.
If you encounter this tale on Amazon, note that it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.
Looking at this information, Jay couldn't help but scoff. Tsk, who would have thought a fake pill like this could go for 1 million gold. If I had that much money I'd probably wouldn't even be here right now. If only I could sell it...
"By the way system, an important question."
[Yes host]
"Can I by any chance exchange this pill also?" Jay asked with a face full of expectations while having delusions of his distant rich life. Unfortunately for him delusions are only delusions.
["..."....I don't think that's possible host.]
"Tsk yeah, yeah kind of guessed you'd say that." Although he said this, he was actually screaming internally. Suddenly remembering the bold capital letter word. The expression on his caterpillar-like face instantly turns ugly.
"System, I won't really die if I take this pill right. I mean I'm fine with the increase in hunger and abdominal pain; actually that one I'm not fully certain about, but what I do know for sure is that I am not dying again. You here me! I don't...."
[Host, I assure you that there is absolutely no problem with the pill.] The mechanical voice of the system interrupted Jay.
"You should have said so earlier before making me talk so much! Anyway just give me the pill."
["..."...Ding] The mechanical sound of the system sounded and a white pill magically appeared on the ground. After the white pill appeared a sweet scent wafted into Jay's nose.
[Host a reminder, please only take the pill after host..]
Jay's mouth watered as he stared at the pill that appeared before him and without any hesitation he opened his mouth and gobbled it up.
[..has been poisoned.]
"What did you say?" He asked dazedly. Suddenly a weird feeling arise in his body, causing him to moan in pleasure. Damn it, what the f*ck is happening.
[I implore host to exchange the dead frog right now. As I'm afraid host won't have a chance later.]
"Damn it system, why are you only telling me now?" Suppressing the urge to let out that embarrassing sound, he hastily crawled towards the frog. In the middle of his pursuit towards the dead frog, steam started arising from his body as his body started turning red.
Although he sometimes imagined himself travelling to another world and using Guy's death gate, but this is too damn much. Gritting his teeth he keeps moving forward without stopping, but suddenly a horrible pain spread throughout his body causing him to fall heavily towards the ground.
His whole body ached as he laid on the ground screaming in pain and agony, but weirdly even through this dreadful pain he can still hear the system's constantly nagging voice.
[Host, this is the last chance you'll ever get, look forward; there's only 10 more cm to go.]
Hearing this he looks up, and sees the goal of his painfully short journey. Lifting his heavy body he throws himself forward. And as his bright red antenna touches the dead bullfrog, with a loud scream he finally completes his goal. Of course it was not a scream of victory, but rather a...
"Aaaaaah!!"
His face looked disfigured as layers of skin on his body started falling off. Damn it! what's happening to me. He thought in confusion and drowsiness as he stared at the dead skin lying in the ground. Having gone through many things in life this is his first time experiencing this but of course will not be his last. His vision suddenly started to blur as his consciousness slowly faded away.
"System..I'm..going..to...kill...you....." He said, before losing consciousness completely, and then with a 'thud' fell heavily towards the ground.
["..."....sigh.]
