Capítulo 58: Survivor, it is

"Is he really okay?" Huang Qiuyan's fingers hover over the wounds, but she doesn't touch it. She's sure that her hands aren't clean. He's not clean either. Do they have antiseptics here? He needs to be bandaged.

[Dear Host, he's already healing. He doesn't need your treatment. Don't make it worse.]

"What can I do for him?" She feels bad for him. Sort of. She's sure that she would have felt the same if it was someone else. "System, tell me."

[Dear Host, why do you ask me now? You ignored me all day.]

She can't see him, but she can imagine him puffing up his cheeks and looking away.

"I didn't ignore you all day." Huang Qiuyan replies, "It was desperate times. I did what was --"

[Dear Host, who are you kidding? I live inside your head. You could have run away before being caught by the vampire king's men. You stayed beside -- Blahblahblahblah --]

The system starts blabbering again. Huang Qiuyan is wishing for a mute button.

[Dear Host, my words are wasted on you. Call me back when you need me.]

"Where are you going?"

[Dear Host, you don't bother with leveling up. At least, take some sips from him and level up. If you level up, I will level up too.]

"I know that." What's up with this system? He didn't bother about leveling up this much before. "I am doing my best."

[Dear Host, you aren't. The meal is in front of you, but you are not doing anything.]

"System, are you that heartless? I don't want to take advantage of him now." Huang Qiuyan wants to choke this system. "Look at him! He got so hurt while he was trying to save Fu Mian."

[Dear Host, it was you who saved her.]

"Did I? If he didn't come with his gang, I wouldn't be able to escape that hunter pervert."

[Dear Host, I don't like him anymore. I am looking for a man who fits the criteria that you set for your husband.]

"What was it again?" Huang Qiuyan scratches her head. "Are you really looking for one?"

[Dear Host, I hate the bond as much as you do.]

"I like you now." Huang Qiuyan grins. "You should find out the cheapest way to break the bond. 100 million are too much. My bargaining skills aren't bad. Tell me who is selling it. I will go to that person and talk about it."

[Dear Host, 100 million is not a big amount in other dimensions. You can't bargain because that seller doesn't exist in this world. We have to travel to other dimensions to look for that seller. He won't sell it online.]

"Why?" Huang Qiuyan feels like her world is collapsing. Another world? How does she get to another world? "Why won't he sell it online?"

[Dear Host, the seller is also the one who will help you break the bond for safety reasons. That's why he's asking for 100 million. If you try it on your own, you might die.]

She slumps her shoulders hopelessly. Why is she poor even after becoming a vampire?

The system sees that she's serious about breaking the bond. So, his anger reduces a bit.

[Dear Host, you were asking me ways to earn points.]

"Ah...yes." Huang Qiuyan becomes serious. "Tell me honestly, System. I don't want to be tricked."

[Dear Host, I won't hide anything. You can choose classes. The first trade to earn points is simple and straightforward. You kill monster and eat their crystals. You earn points and level up. There are bosses among them. The new vampires are evolving faster. They might have started from zero, but they are getting stronger every day. You will find some level 7 converts now. This class is called adventurer.]

"I don't like that method. Next." Killing one vampire was more than enough. It nearly killed her. She can't imagine what would have happened if she didn't have the system. That method is too dangerous. She can't kill millions of vampires to earn a million points.

[The second class is Merchant. You can buy and sell anything if you choose this, even your hair. I wouldn't recommend it. The witches do dangerous things with hair. You can sell stuff to get points, but you won't rank up.]

Huang Qiuyan is listening. Being a merchant is easy.

[You will take a long time to level up. Unless you reach a certain rank, you won't be able to access the exit door of this world and you won't be able to get to that seller's world.]

"..." What's the point of being a merchant if she can't leave the world and meet that damned seller?

[There are countless classes -- dancer, musician, martial artist, gamer, seducer... I will give you the manual and you can choose one. But, those classes won't help you level up faster.]

"Which one will help me level up faster?" Huang Qiuyan gets the point.

[Dear Host, there's an exclusive class for you. I am an apocalypse assistant system, after all. My main theme is survival. So, I can make adjustments. If you survive during any perilous time, you rank up faster. So, if you choose to be a survivor, you can rank up faster and gain points even faster.]

"Hey, I don't want to throw myself in difficult situations. I am certainly not seeking those monsters to fight."

[Dear Host, being a survivor doesn't mean that you only have to fight the monsters. Seeking danger is an adventurer's task. You are a survivor. Of course, you will avoid what is dangerous for your existence. You can use other ways to level up like drinking Fu Sheng's blood. It's best for your survival.]

"Can't you just tell me the point?" She's frustrated. "Just tell me straightforwardly."

The system groans. Is he speaking another language? [Dear Host, you survived the hunters, the apocalypse, Fu Sheng and many other situations. Continuing to exist despite hardship is survival. So, if you choose your class as the survivor, you will have access to all the skills that are required for your survival. It's a cheat that I created from the loophole.]

"All the skills?" Huang Qiuyan asks the system doubtfully. "What if I want to be a dancer?"

"If you take part in a dancing competition or need to know dancing to survive the situation, then you will be able to access the skill." The system tells her honestly, "If you choose the Dancer class, you can indefinitely access all the skills to become an expert. However, ranking up will be slower than gaining the points."

Huang Qiuyan frowns. Isn't it better just to become a survivor then? Isn't she already one? She doesn't need to be an expert. She needs to have a little of everything.

[Dear Host, you couldn't choose one before you joined the ranking system. After joining the ranking system, you have been too busy with other things. After selecting the class, you will get missions. Then, you can get points too. Right now, I suggest that you level up. We can find ways to earn points later.]

"Survivor, it is." Huang Qiuyan smiles. It suits her. "System, let's work together to survive."

[Dear Host, I have been working in that direction from day one.]
