《The Assassin System》Chapter 9 : The system has mind control powers
Advertisement
*Day 2*
Wearing a loose t-shirt and up to knee short pants, Lilia is sitting on her bed while hugging a pillow. At the same time, she was swiping her fingers left, right, up, and down.
A normal person would probably feel perplexed when seeing this as they don't know why Lilia would be doing this,
However, Lilia herself is clear on why she is doing this.
"Uuu...."
"Rockabye hosty everything's alright. You have the almighty system by your side."
"Shut it. Because of you, I got reprimanded, hard."
"Don't be sad host. At least you completed mission 1."
"Yeah, after completing it, I was thrown an extra two."
"......"
"Moreover...."
******
*Flashback to yesterday*
"You child, what is going on with you? Talking to yourself? Are you sure your fine?"
"Yes, Auntie, I am FINE."
"Then who were you talking to?"
"To no one auntie!"
"The tone and attitude of your voice tells me that you're lying."
"What?! No!"
"That's it young lady, your staying here for a month. I'm telling this to your professor."
"What?!"
*End of Flashback*
******
"Uuuu..."
"Now what do I do tommorow." Thought Lilia.
Due to the "circumstances" yesterday, her auntie is now watching her like a hawk. Even her uncle could only smile wryly at her situation.
Moreover, that was 1 month of studies......
The homeworks.... The activities..... The projects.....
*Dong*
Lilia felt her soul leave her body just by thinking about all of those.
"I'm dead. No, I'm already dead."
"Hm? Wait. Come to think of it..."
Lilia then snapped her fingers. After doing this, the usual prop up then appeared.
******
Missions.
1. Get fit - your rash decision to lose fat has made you look thin. As being thin can be a liability, you must get fit, rip some muscles, and have a healthy diet. And, as the system is so generous, it already made you a workout plan. Thank the system amitabha.

******
Looking into it, the former 1 mission, which was Excuses, was no longer there. Well that's of course Lilia already finished it.
But that wasn't the reason why she brought this certain prop up.
"Get fit.......(Daily mission for 30 days) 0/30 complete."
"Sneaky sneaky.....(Daily mission for 14 days) 0/14 complete."
Lilia stared blankly at these two missions, which she highlighted in her head, and then cursed afterwards.
"Sys, tell me something."
"Yes host."
"Are you a mind controller?"
"No I am not host."
"If you're not a mind controller, then why the hell does it feel like it's associated to the time auntie have dropped on me huh!?"
"Oh come on host, isn't it fine, two birds in one stone is what they say when this happens right?"
"Besides, it's all going in plan."

"To hell with your birds and stone!"
"Wait a sec, what did you just say?"
"Say what?"
"It was something about the "plan" you said."
"What plan? Host please clarify."
"....."
This system.....
"#$&@"
"Fine! I'll do your dirty scheme. You ******** $€¥¢ of a system."
"Thank you host."
"Goddangit! So this is was your "plan"!!!"
******
"15, 16, 17...."
"21.... 22.... 23...."
"Host, stop counting. You only reached 17 pushups."
"Shut up."
"....."
Lilia is currently hugging the floor.... Or perhaps lying down on the yoga mat she borrowed from her auntie.
Of course her auntie didn't forget to tell her that she already told her professor that she wasn't coming back to the university for a month.
This in turn disheartened Lilia to some extent.
And so, to turn her train of thoughts away from that, she just started doing mission #2, Getting fit.
"I can't do this. I can't."
"You can do it. You can."
"No I can't."
"Yes you can or else I'll make another ruckus sa that your auntie would reprimand you again."
"No i-!!! What did you just say?!"
"I said yes you can do it host."
"Not that. The other one."
"What other one?"
"...."
"Damn you..."
No longer minding the system and it's antics, Lilia then continued working out.
"18.... 19.... 20..."
******
While Lilia was doing her workouts, On a busy street near the university, a girl, around 15-16, with a blonde ponytail, breathtaking face features, and a very approachable atmosphere, was making rythmatic steps, although she appears to be looking for someone.
"Hmm..."
"It should be around here."
"Mimi, show me the map."
As the girl said this, a very familiar screen prop up, which Lilia would immediately know about, appeared in front of her.
As this prop up appeared out of thin air, it would certainly Garner attention as this was a busy street.
However, not a single person seems to mind about it.
"Ohh, were very close. Okay let's go!" Said the girl with a cheerful expression.
Doing quick steps, she arrived at an very imposing gate, were students aspire to pass through but also dares not to fail when they do pass through.
The girl however, does not mind it's imposing-ness.
"Haha! Camara University, I have arrived. Now, show me what secrets you have. For I, must finish my mission and get the bountiful rewards."
Likewise, as the girl said this, a loud crisp *ding*, which Lilia herself is familiar with, sounded within the girls head.
******
Mission complete.
1. The first clue to a possible friend or to a possible enemy.

"Hahahahaha!"
"Bountiful rewards! Bountiful rewards!"
******

"Humanity is on the cusp of their Great Expansion. It will be the first time in history that they’ve reached beyond their own solar system in an attempt to colonize the galaxy. Or, at least, so they thought. Peeling back the veil of time, The Empire of Sol has uncovered vestiges of a secret genetic program on the far flung planet of Hod. The advent of the Empire’s ancient enemy could upset the careful balance of power throughout in the Sol System. When Hod is invaded by the Empire, Andros Aeton is pressed into their service and his people are held hostage. Unbeknownst to him, factions within the Empire vie to use him to their own ends. He must claim his heritage if he has any hope of escaping the clutches of the forces that seek to use him." This is a work in progress. Major editing will be done after the book is complete, so there will be egregious typos and parts that make no sense whatsoever. Please feel free to point any and all of these things out. Chapters WILL get edited, and that editing might break earlier chapters. I will attempt to keep readers apprised of all changes. As always, feedback is welcome and appreciated.

A New Leaf
When people mention fantasy games and RPGs, they usually think of goblins, elves, orcs, dwarves and magic (apart from the percentage that gets an image of an anti-tank weapon in their mind, I will respectfully put those individuals aside for now). But what if you get neither of those (not even the weapon, I know, sad)? And what if you end up playing as something that doesn't look like an animal at all? And what if the said game you were playing weren't actually a game, but real life changed by irresponsible, beyond-mortal beings? Follow the (mis)adventures of "player" 13241, a.k.a. Treant, as he experiences what it's like to be a walking magical fruit maker (among other things). When the world goes to hell and back, plants are the ones that remain, right?
