[That's not—] The system hesitated, then repeated,
[I am not defective!]
Su Jiyai's eyes gleamed with amusement.
"Mhm, sure. The way you're freaking out makes me think I might be right. So why don't you just admit it? I got a faulty system, didn't I?"
The system remained silent for a few more moments before speaking again.
[Host... this system is not defective. But... there were some unexpected issues during the installation process.]
Su Jiyai raised an eyebrow. "Unexpected issues? Go on."
[This system was meant to be a multiplier system, as you were told. I was designed to multiply resources, powers, and even time under certain conditions. However, during the activation process, there was... a malfunction.]
Su Jiyai crossed her arms, intrigued now.
"A malfunction? So what, the system I got ended up being part multiplier and part rental building system?"
[...Yes.] The system sounded defeated.
