Being well-versed in web novels, Xanthia understood the etiquette of transmigration: fulfill the original body's wishes and avenge their grudges. This confidence was bolstered by the system!
Xanthia quickly browsed through the original body's memories—
The high school girl, also named Xanthia La Papadopoulos, had a rather complex family background. Her father, Demetrios El Papadopoulos, was the youngest son of Nikos El Papadopoulos, a top local business tycoon in Province of Thessaloniki.
Demetrios had an older brother named Andreas El Papadopoulos and an older sister named Maria La Papadopoulos.
As a child, Demetrios was quite favored, but as he grew up, he gradually became marginalized within the family due to his frivolous and playboy lifestyle.
Her mother, Ella La Fielsola, came from a modest background and had been a popular singer in the entertainment industry, known for her beauty and grace. After being pursued relentlessly by Demetrios, they eventually got married and had a child out of their love.
However, soon after the marriage, during Ella's pregnancy, Demetrios reverted to his old ways, showing no sense of marital fidelity. Ella, who already had a "frail and sickly" body, was gentle and weak. She endured silently, harboring resentment until she eventually passed away.
Her final words to her daughter were, "A wise person avoids falling in love," a lesson the original Xanthia kept close to her heart.
The original Xanthia also deeply remembered her mother regretting abandoning her career for marriage...
In fact, Ella had never been accepted by the Papadopoulos Familia due to her background and profession. She was not a highly successful celebrity, and even if she had been, being a proper wife in a wealthy family was never easy.
The death of Ella had a significant impact on the original Xanthia, making her increasingly introverted and melancholic.
What hurt her most was that not long after her mother's death, her father brought in another woman who had given him a son named Dionysios. This son made Demetrios extremely proud.
The critical point was that Demetrios's father, who had never treated him well, started to show some respect because of the outstanding achievements of Dionysios El Papadopoulos.
Compared to the brilliant and radiant Dionysios, the original Xanthia, who had lost her mother and was almost invisible, was naturally neglected.
In short, the original Xanthia had been utterly disappointed with the world since her mother’s death. She wanted to cut ties with the Papadopoulos Familia and live independently, but she lacked the ability to survive on her own...
Now, with her body taken over by the system-bound Xanthia, it felt more like a release for her.
Her wishes were recorded in the system’s task list --
Wish 1: A wise person avoids falling in love.
(By maintaining a state of not being in love, the "Wisdom Root" trait is activated continuously.)
You could be reading stolen content. Head to the original site for the genuine story.
Wish 2: Cut ties with her father, fulfill her mother’s dying wish, stay away from the Papadopoulos Familia, become independent, and achieve success.
(If she chooses a singing career, she will gain the title "Voice of Heaven".)
After browsing through the original memories and understanding her wishes through the system, Xanthia felt that Wish 1 was practically a free gift, activating the "Wisdom Root" trait buff easily.
As a person who sought amusement, she had no interest in falling in love. Being a heartbreaker or a master of playing games with people's hearts would bring her more joy, wouldn’t it?
This was the true wisdom!
As for Wish 2, she thought it would require careful planning.
For a high school girl to achieve independence and start a career was nearly impossible. Even with the system, she needed time to develop.
Xanthia currently lived in a small studio apartment close to Thessaloniki First High School. The original Xanthia was too introverted and socially anxious to live in a dormitory.
In this respect, she was outshone by her younger half-brother, Dionysios, who was just a few months younger than her. He was outgoing, unafraid of hardships, and chose to live in the school dormitory.
Additionally, Thessaloniki First High School, one of the best high schools in Thessaloniki Province, admitted Dionysios based on his excellent grades and academic achievements, placing him in the best experimental class of Grade 10 Class 1.
In contrast, Xanthia, with average grades, entered the school through her family's connections and was placed in Grade 10, Class 3, an ordinary class.
Though this class was ordinary, its proximity to the experimental classes meant it shared similar resources. Students in this class either had good luck, slightly lower grades than the experimental classes, or came from well-connected familias.
Xanthia glanced around her living space, feeling quite satisfied with the small studio apartment.
Although this didn’t fit the image of a “wealthy young lady,” not living on campus meant she had all her free time after school to accumulate happiness points!
Unfortunately, the strict school culture of Thessaloniki First High School mandated evening self-study sessions, or she would be even happier.
Currently, it was Sunday afternoon, and she had to go back to school on Monday.
Xanthia decided to make the most of this time. She looked through the system’s task list for any simple tasks she could complete easily.
There were quite a few simple tasks, including repeatable ones like "exercise," "enjoy a meal," and "read a book," which slowly increased her traits. However, to gain specific traits, she needed to choose more challenging tasks.
She left her apartment and headed to the nearby Helena Plaza to have some fun. Helena Real Estate was one of the Papadopoulos Familia’s businesses, with her grandfather, Nikos El Papadopoulos, as the chairman and her grandmother, Nias La Papadopoulos.
Upon entering the mall, she noticed a challenging system task: Approach strangers and get 100 Synomilía Social contacts.
Completing this task would grant her the "Social Butterfly" title (white), which could be upgraded to "Social Bull" (blue), and eventually to "Social Terrorist" (purple).
The "Social Expert" title allowed the player to quickly adapt to unfamiliar environments and made people feel an instant sense of friendliness during interactions.
This title caught Xanthia’s attention. In her previous life, although she wasn't as socially anxious as the original Xanthia, she wasn't great at socializing either. She was the type to be open with friends but hesitant to make new ones.
She often envied those "social bulls" who dared to approach pretty girls on the street and navigate new environments with ease, effortlessly becoming the center of attention.
As for "Social Terrorist," that was even more impressive. As long as she wasn’t embarrassed, it was others who would feel awkward. Being a performance artist would be a breeze.
Apart from this challenge, there was an even more challenging task: Get approached by strangers 100 times.
The reward was +3 to appearance, +3 to charm, and the title "Street Goddess." Wearing this title would make the player more popular, increase the likelihood of being approached by high-quality individuals, and make street photos more stunning and shareable.
Xanthia accepted both challenge tasks and decided to muster her courage to complete the first one: approaching strangers.
With the system, she felt braver. It was like playing a game. In her previous life, she would have been too scared to take the first step.
