章 60: You cruel inhuman host!!!
Once upon a time, the legendary writer Shakespeare asked the world, 'What's in a name?'
If that legend was still alive, the system would have answered, 'Everything.'
He is an Apocalypse Assistant System. That's not his name. Since he has a face now, he needs a name.
he system is looking at her with big round eyes, highly anticipating. The name that she sets for him will become his name for eternity. He won't be able to ever change it.
It should be a cool name -- a name that can shake the inter-dimensional systems' chatroom.
"Your name is..." Huang Qiuyan squints her eyes and smirks. She pauses, seeing how much he wants to have a name. The system is super excited.
She can't name him 'Awesome'. That doesn't suit this system at all. She's sure that she's been scammed with this nagging-box in her mind. Would she ever choose this to get installed in her mind? Never!!!
She smiles brightly at the system. "Xiao Chun Dan."
The system opens his mouth wide. "You cruel inhuman host!!!"
This is the first time when the system is calling her something other than 'dear host'.
"I am not a human for sure." Huang Qiuyan is satisfied with the system's reaction. "You are Xiao Chun Dan from now on. It suits you."
"You cruel --" The system squats down on the floor and covers his face. It would have been better if she never gave him a name. "Host, it was one time setup. I can never ever change my name as long as you are my host and you are going to be my host for eternity."
Why did she name him an idiot? She is an idiot, not him. She's the dumbest person in all the universes to name him 'Idiot'.
"Xiao Chun Dan." She coos his new name and smiles at him. "Are you happy? You can use this name on social media now."
Rubbing salt on his wounds... He glares at her. "Host, you are not a good person. I was wrong about you."
"Can anyone remain a good person when that person has you in her head?" Huang Qiuyan cracks her knuckles. "Come here. You have me a lot of difficulties in the past."
Xiao Chun Dan tenses his shoulders. "Host, I saved your life countless times."
"Wasn't it for your gain?" Huang Qiuyan stands up. "Now, you are out of my head. I want you to stay like this."
"Dear Host, you can't do that." Xiao Chun Dan runs to the corner when she takes a step toward him. "Look! Fu Sheng is awake."
Huang Qiuyan turns around to look at Fu Sheng. Fu Sheng's eyes flutter because of the noise. His wounds are nearly healed. He's been hearing voices -- Huang Qiuyan's and someone else. He opens his eyes and sees Huang Qiuyan standing beside the bed, watching him with a concerned face.
He sniffs the air once. He can't smell anyone else in the room, but he's sure that he heard a second voice -- a young boy. "Who is the boy?"
She tenses her shoulders and looks in the corner. Xiao Chun Dan is no longer there.
[Dear Host, I am back~]
"Phew!" Huang Qiuyan smiles at Fu Sheng, surprising him. He has never seen her smile before. "What boy? The only male in this room is you."
She's not lying. The apocalypse assistant system, is not human.
Fu Sheng narrows his eyes. He can sense it. Judging from the way she has been talking to that boy, she is quite familiar with the person. He often hears her talking to herself in the same way. What is she hiding?
He doesn't ask her anything. He can find out with time.
Fu Sheng returns her smile. "Huang Qiuyan, let's continue what we have been doing. Shall we?"
