Outside the dungeon

Hey shila.
Yea?
You sound and look a little tired, can you even get tired?
You look pretty energetic compared to me…
Yea, it's not hard when you're floating with your head and limbs all hanging from your body.
…
show me the leaderboard.
Sure…
1.Aiden(level 32)
2.Black(level 31)
3.red(level 28)
4.Aileen(level 27)
5.Leah(level 24)
6.yellow(level 23)
7.green(level 22)
8.Leah(level 21)
9.John(level 20)
10.blue(level 20)
Why is the last 5 leveling so slowly?
How should I know?
Whatever.
Hey, I'm bored.
So go to sleep or something?
Come on, you're basically my mother.
I'm not even old enough to be your mother or even act like it.
So what? If I wasn't blue due to being part of the system, I'd look like your child.
… That doesn't mean I'm basically your mother.
And your job as my mother is to entertain me.
Even if I was old enough, I wouldn't want to be your mother.
So mother, please be kind and spend some points on games or atleast a toy.
Could you stop ignoring me? Also what the hell are you gonna do with a toy?
What do you think?
I know you look like a child, but could you not act like it?
Nope, my mentality is actually that of a child, but slightly more mature and also I'm smarter along with all the system knowledge.
I'm not getting a toy for my points.
Then what about food?
I guess I could do that, I'm pretty hungry.
Well, go buy some rice with fish I guess?
You keep eating the same thing.
Because it cost 20 points only.
Unauthorized duplication: this narrative has been taken without consent. Report sightings.
Cheapskate, I'm not eating that.
Then starve, you don't even need food do you?
But I want food.
I don't care.
Abusive mother, I'll call child protective services on you.
Stop calling me that.
Then how about some food? If you buy some nice food I won't ask anymore or call you mom?
No.
What about your trait? I'll give some information.
What information?
Idk, apparently your trait is disadvantageous.
Huh, How?
Idk, I can connect you to the guide like a video call since he allowed me to do so ever since the error happened.
Fine, let me look through the food the systems got.
Thank you, finally.
Shut up.
Hilda scrolls through the food and finds a 200 points food and presses it, trying to avoid looking at her points as it decreases but failing miserably.
Wait, when did I get 7000 points? I know I got some, but isn't 7000 a lot?
The wyvern you killed was level 15 and gave 3000 points, the abomination was level 35, giving 7000 points.
Oh nice.
Hilda looks at the food that appeared, and stares for a moment before staring back at the shop and then at Shila.
Hey.
Yes?
I clicked the 200 points food yes?
Yea.
So why is the 500 points here instead?
How should I know?
Don't lie, it's clearly your fault.
… Well, it's just right above, so I must have misinterpreted it and bought it instead.
Really?
Yes.
Shila says, not bothering with Hilda's implied threat.
If the information from the guide isn't worth it or he doesn't answer me, you're screwed and if I hear mom again, I'm sending you off to the guide.
But you don't know how.
I'll figure it out.
But you ca-
Connect me to that dam guide now.
Fine.
Shila starts eating the food on the table while using her finger to make a system screen appear showing the guide like it's a video call.
Hey, is my trait disadvantageous? Hilda gets to the point, trying to ignore Shila eating the 500 points cake behind the somewhat transparent screen.
Kinda.
Kinda?
Well, your case is special, because I didn't expect to see a max level trait in my first 10 users.
So what does it do?
It simply makes you more of your trait.
Huh?
You like your sister even more.
How is that disadvantageous?
Well, you got somewhat lucky, if somebody's trait was like suicidal, than they would become more suicidal.
…
Anyways, you were basically willing to die for your sister before, now you're more willing.
Not true.
Is true, if it means you can kill the boss on the 100th level you would happily sacrifice your life before it descends wouldn't you?
So what? Also didn't you say this tower is here to keep the monsters locked up for humans to help kill? Why can the boss descend?
Something caused me to be unavailable.
What's that something?
Can't tell.
Great, well gimme some advice on what to do now.
Not gonna, unless you tear a tip coupon.
Wouldn't players getting stronger help you, why do this?
Because the personal, not important reason I made this tower is for entertainment., truth be told even if the other people managed to invade your planet, I could just kill the monsters and minimize the damage along with erasing the memories of humans and reviving them.
So why the tower?
Because doing cause me to constantly be bored and constantly working, also it'll weaken me so the other people may attack me eventually killing me.
Huh?
What, thought I couldn't die or something?
No, but you did, the planet would be okay.
Yea, they would only succeed in a couple thousand years, by then your planet would have become advanced enough probably to defend themselves, at least for the most part.
For the most part?
Well I can't see the future so it's just all assumptions.
…
Bye.
Wait, take this you're gonna want it.
What is this?
Hilda catches a potion that the guide materializes before ending the call.
System interaction potion.(30 minutes)
I modified the description of this one, check your points.
Huh?
Hey shila show me my points?
Shila, still eating, shows her her points amounting to 6000.
The cake was 500 so where did the other 500 go?
Idk.
Shila says while sitting on a chair and eating from a table with utensils that she clearly didn't have just now.
… Why did you buy all this?
Well, I couldn't have eaten from the floor right?!
Right, and why didn't you buy the cheaper ones?
Because this table chair and utensils look nice.
Hilda drinks the potion provided by the guide and keeps her sword before approaching Shila slowly.
Hey, what are you doing?
I'm gonna beat you half to death.
First, only the guide can currently remove me, second you can't hurt me.
Really?
Yea.
Hilda punches Shila making her fly away into a tree due to her lightweight.
Oh… the guide helped you, didn't he?
Yes he did.
Hilda looks In Front of Shila who is lying down against a tree while feigning a smile.
You're smiling but I have just a slight feeling that you're not happy.
—----------------------------------------------
30 minutes later
—----------------------------------------------
Hilda kneels down and looks at shila who looks beaten half to death, despite her claiming that no one can get rid of her except the guide.
So Shila, what did you learn today?
Not to waste points. Shila, still on the ground, mutters.
Good girl yea?
…
Hm, no response?
Yea, I'll be good.
I'm gonna go spend some points now before you keep leeching off of me.
Show me the shop.
Shila disappears and makes herself into the shop system screen instead of just the usual showing it with a finger.
Hurry and eat the rest of your cake or I'll throw it away.
In a sec…
Anyways, I need skills related to straight fighting, or at lea
st something to counter him.
Hilda looks through the recommendations but can't find one that she's satisfied with.
I guess I am tearing a tip coupon after all.
