Chapter 2- System Space.
Grunt!
Zosia felt uncomfortable and could not help but let out a sound.
Then suddenly it clicked to her, since she could feel pain, then she should be alive.
She opened her eyes to look at her surroundings.
"Am I not supposed to be dead? How am I still alive? Where am I?" She asked so many questions, but she got no answer.
"Huh? What is this?" She muttered.
A holographic screen appeared before her eyes, followed by a female voice.
[WELCOME TO THE SYSTEM SPACE, I WILL ADDRESS ALL YOUR QUESTIONS BEFORE THE TUTORIAL STARTS.]
Looking at the holographic words, she had a lot of questions, but being in the system, she knows that she had been given only but a few minutes or more before her time runs up and then she would be thrown into the tutorial.
[YOU ARE QUITE SMART.]
"So, she can read my mind." Zosia thought inwardly.
"Well, thanks. I have a few questions. First, who are you?"
[YOUR GUIDE, TILL YOU ARE DONE WITH YOUR TUTTORIAL. AS FOR IF YOU WOULD GET ANY AFTER THE TUTORIAL ENDS, DEPENDS ON IF YOU WOULD STILL BE ALIVE BY THEN.]
"Okay, what and what do I need to prepare?"
[AREN'T YOU GOING TO ASK ME HOW YOU GOT HER? THAT'S LIKE THE FIRST QUESTION THAT PEOPLE ASK.]
"No." Zosia replied succinctly.
[ALRIGHT, THAT SAVES ME A LOT OF TIME THEN. AS FOR WHAT YOU SHOULD PREPARE, THEY INCLUDE: FASTING PILLS, WATER, CRUMBLED BISCUIT AND A COLD WEAPON.]
"How do I get that?"
[EACH NEWBIE IS GIVEN A TOTAL OF 1000 POINTS. SO, YOU CAN USE THE POINTS GIVEN TO PURCHASE WHAT YOU NEED.]
[YOUR TIME IS UP, BUT AS A BONUS, I WILL TELL YOU HOW YOU GOT HERE.]
[YOU GOT HERE WITH THE AID OF THE VIP TOKEN, WHICH IS WHY I AM ALSO HERE.
THE VIP TOKEN GRANTS YOU THE OPPURTUNITY FOR A GUIDE TO BRIEF YOU.. AND I HAPPEN TO BE THE ONE AND AS WELL AS 50% DISCOUNT ON YOUR FIRST PURCHASE AND EXTRA 1000 POINTS.
OTHER EXPLANATIONS WOULD COME LATER, AS IF I CONTINUE EXPLAINING, YOUR TIME WOULD BE UP AND YOU WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO BUY ANYTHING.
GOODLUCK IN YOUR TUTORIAL.]
Zosia watched as the Holographic words disappeared and took a deep breath. Since she didn't have much time left, she could only open the shop and see what she could get.
Looking at the expensive prices, she was not sure if her 2000 points would be enough.
She looked at the prices which were slashed and the newly generated price.
First, she bought a dagger, some military biscuits, some bottle water and fasting pills.
After buying all that, even with the discount, 1000 points disappeared.
Biting her lips, she perused the shop and found a storage bag which reminded her of her inventory.
She clicked on the inventory, but it was still in gray shade, meaning it wasn't available to her yet.
Looking at the things which she had bought on the floor, she gritted her teeth and was about to spend the remaining 1000 points to get a bag since she couldn't afford even a simple storage artifact now.
She bent down to arrange the things she had bought when she noticed a tattoo on the back of her arm resembling a live owl.
As someone that doesn't have a tattoo, seeing such a thing on her arm was strange, if not weird. The presence of such alone was questioning.
Just as she was about to scrub it off, she suddenly felt like an explosion went off in her head and she felt her consciousness go dark.
[MASTER ACKNOWLEDGED]
Opening her eyes to find herself in a dry caked field with no grass and a spring which divides the field into two.
Looking at the water, she wondered if she could return the water she bought.
She decided to try it out first and see if it works.
"Now, how do I go out?"
She tried using her thoughts to send the message when she suddenly felt overwhelmed.
Zosia felt like all the restrictions in the space disappeared. She was now completely in charge of the space.
She even felt like not only could her consciousness enter, even her body could.
Leaving the space, she clicked on the system and thought of how to return the water when she saw the option she was looking for.
"Sell."
She clicked on the water bottles and on the option to sell.
The VIP card slashed the fee she would have paid, allowing her to regain back her points.
Using the remaining points, she bought a lot of fasting pills and match sticks for making fire.
She did not buy seeds, she believed she could get it from the world she would be going to.
She also bought a bag to use as a decoy.
The moment she bought the bag, the shop option turned gray, and a countdown appeared.
[YOUR TUTORIAL BEGINS IN 5…..4…. 3… 2.. 1. BRACE YOURSELF.]
….
Opening her eyes, Zosia stared at the unfamiliar young man before her, who was shouting.
She frowned imperceptibly, feeling the rising headache from the young man's shouting, which also made her ears ring.
Her eyes stung, and she felt pain. She really just wanted to drift into the dreamland, cause her head felt like it was about to explode.
"You aren't even listening to me. Look, better get this right. You can only be my wife on papers and nothing more." After he said that, the Young man stormed out of the room not forgetting to bang the door behind him, adding to Zosia's headache.
Zosia rolled her eyes and quickly crawled into the bed.
"Oh Lord! This, is just so soft." Zosia let out a moan and allowed herself to sink into the bed.
Before, she knew it, she entered the dreamland.
…
"Oh! It's morning." Zosia yawned while stretching her arms.
"Huh! It's really morning." She blinked her eyes as confusion set in.
What followed next was the replay of memories of the original owner.
Zosia glanced at the tutorial board in front of her.
[[[ MAIN QUEST: TAKE CARE OF THE UNBORN CHILD TILL HE REACHES ADULT STAGE.
SIDE QUEST (1): MAKE KRIS REGRET HIS DECISION.
SIDE QUEST (2): LOVE YOURSELF.
TIME: 20 YEARS. ] ]]]
Looking at the tutorial panel which only had the quest and nothing else on it, she let out a sigh.
"I Can't believe I am pregnant! Now, I just need to make some plans."
According to the original owner's memories, she is 20 years old, currently in her youth and now married to her crush of 7 years.
Yup, she has been having a crush on Kris since she was a kid after he had helped her once.
As for her current situation, after her mother remarried and her father also remarried, she is currently alone.
Kris was a family friend when her family was still intact, but after their business expanded into the military, it was no longer so.
Her step- sister also has a crush on him, but neither of them could get his heart, especially not the timid original host.
Looking back at the memories, she really felt that the original host was really stupid, even to the extent of drugging Kris before she leaves for Miami, but she ended up getting pregnant. Now, she is currently 3 months pregnant.
Kris' parents were the one who even found out about her pregnancy, not even her.
Kris' parents had caught them in bed and assumed she would be their daughter -in-law since Kris wasn't showing any signs of bringing one back home.
Well, that's a story for another day. She didn't want to delve too deep into it.
"Zosia, you need to think. What should I do now? Well, who cares!"
Opening the bedside drawer, she took out the bank card given to her by Kris.
Kris had thrown the card to her when he found out about her pregnancy. His plan was to use the money on the card to send her away.
"Now, let's go for a plan" Zosia winked at herself as she stood in front of the mirror.
