Chapter 249: "Neo System"
"You...are special. Your soul is not from this world, am I right?" Alfster pointed at Ainsley but didn't let her answer.
"Only someone from a certain world out of this world can activate me. You're lucky you found me!"
But then, Alfster' words sounded a bit strange in Ainsley's ears.
Only someone from a particular world can activate him? Does it mean that all my 6 predecessors were from the same world as me?
As if understanding Ainsley's thoughts, Alfster nodded.
"Correct! The previous hosts are all from the same world as you. If you're curious, I can tell you who your 6 predecessors are, but only after I bond myself with you."
Alfster flipped his arm, and his wide sleeve fluttered in the air once more.
"So? How is it, dear host? Will you accept me or not?"
Ainsley was instantly dumbfounded.
Uh...I can choose to reject you? But...doesn't a system always forcefully bond itself with the host? Since when does the host have the right to refuse?!
Once again guessing Ainsley's thoughts, Alfster let out a low chuckle.
"Hehehe. It seems that my dear host knows a lot about systems, huh? Well, a neo system like myself can't be compared to mere data like other systems."
Alfster flipped his hair, trying to act cool.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"A neo system can have a concrete figure even though I can only become a spirit, just like a dead spirit in this world. Thus, I have more humanity than other systems."
Alfster paused to take a deep breath before he let out his most potent smile he often used to con other hosts.
"I respect my dear host's choice, so you can definitely reject me if you don't want to get lots of benefits."
Of course, who would reject benefits?
The baby didn't hesitate and immediately replied.
"No, no, it's okay. I'll accept your invitation!"
A sly smile silently appeared on Alfster's face as he clapped his hands.
"Good, good! Then, I'll make a mark for our bond. What mark do you prefer? A star? A lotus? The previous host chose a snake…"
Alfster already blabbered this and that, acting like a salesperson. His sudden attitude change took Ainsley by surprise.
Is this still the same gentle and suave person I saw before?
Aren't you a sophisticated system?
How come you suddenly become a businessman trying to con someone to get a tattoo or something?!
Despite her doubts, Ainsley controlled her emotions and let out a sigh.
"Can you make a cat paw print? I like cats...so I'd like my mark to be a cat paw print."
Anyway, after I get the mark, it means I'll officially own a system, right? It's not bad…
Alfster was going through an archive of hosts' marks when Ainsley decided out of the blue. He paused midair and slowly looked at the baby with wide eyes.
"Really? A cat paw print? Don't you want a more relaxed mark? I think a Phoenix suits you...or a devil mark...or a spider, maybe...or a wisp?"
"Cat paw print, please. Thank you. Make the colour purple, and it shouldn't be seen by others when I'm not using the system." Ainsley waved her hand nonchalantly.
She's acting as if she's ordering a custom phone case or something!
Alfster, the so-called neo system, was utterly dumbfounded.
This is the first time I saw someone being so relaxed when they first met me…
Did she truly already know about my existence? But shouldn't she be more cautious or something…
Yet this baby acted as natural as she could. She didn't display any signs of fear or anxiety…
All the previous hosts were so difficult to persuade, but this one jumped in with her eyes closed!
Alfster didn't know whether the baby was simply ignorant, or she already knew that he wouldn't harm her and would benefit her instead.
Really...did one of the previous hosts tell her about me? But shouldn't it be a secret?
Alfster was itching to ask Ainsley but first, he had to make the mark.
"Alright then, dear host. A cat paw print, so be it." Alfster's lips twitched, imagining the supposedly excellent system mark became a cute paw print instead.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlas, he didn't have a choice. Alfster could only point his finger at Ainsley, and a blue light shot to Ainsley's forehead.
In a blink of an eye, a tiny purple cat paw print was embedded on the baby's forehead. It flickered a few times before slowly fading away, hiding beneath the baby's skin.
It would only come out whenever the baby was using the system.
"Done! With this, I have successfully bonded with you! Dear host, what do you want me to call you? Ah, ah, I forgot. Do you want to change my name?"
Alfster put his hands behind his back as he squatted to match his eye level with Ainsley's.
Since he was now free thanks to this baby, he should treat her well!
"Hmmm...just call me Boss, or something...ah, yeah, your name shall be Zev from now on. Alfster is a bit difficult to pronounce." Ainsley didn't hesitate to change Alfster's name.
She would bite her tongue if she pronounced his previous name in her baby language!
What would Alfster be in a baby language? Alfhstwel? Fck!
Zev is shorter and easier to say. Zwev. Yeah, cute, and simple!
Alfster didn't know anything happening inside Ainsley's mind, but he didn't particularly hate his new name.
"Alright, boss. My name is now Zev. Nice to meet you!" Zev extended his hand and shook Ainsley's tiny palm.
"Now, boss...can you tell me what profession you'd like to be the best at?"
They finally got to the most important part.
