‘Isn’t this too coincidental?’
Su Yang rubbed his eyes in disbelief. ‘Has the system changed? Is it finally going to be useful for once?
‘For the past two days, I had first obtained an additional ability that was compatible with one another. Now, I have randomly obtained a ticket that I urgently needed. This is unbelievable.’
Su Yang did not believe that the system had its own conscience. ‘Could it be that… the Feng Shui in the capital is good? Has my luck improved because of this? ‘Or could it be that… I’ve received a blessing after surviving a great calamity? Could I have been blessed because I was not poisoned to death by Luo Yi?’
Su Yang occasionally looked at the voucher’s countdown timer as he was deep in thought.
‘This is truly surprising, the countdown for the vouchers was still very long, I still have more than seven hours before it expires.’
Su Yang suspected that the voucher had long been refreshed whilst he was unaware.
‘This crappy system is really f*cked up for not even having a function to remind you when the vouchers have been refreshed.
‘If the timer for the [Point Wash Voucher) was any shorter, I would probably have missed it.’
At the thought of this, Su Yang did not delay any further. He clicked on the (Point Wash Voucher) and decided to buy this item that he urgently needed immediately!
(Are you sure you want to buy the Point Wash Voucher? This voucher costs 1,300 yuan.]
‘1,300 yuan?’
as
Su Yang felt that the price was neither cheap nor expensive. It was much cheaper than the (Advanced Life Transfer Voucher], but it was much more expensive than the random point. He probably would not have bought it If Little Hus was not important.
‘Since it’s my first time encountering something like this, I might as well buy it and give it a go.’
With this thought in mind, Su Yang clicked on (Confirm) and bought (Point Wash Voucher). As he clicked (Confirm], a faint light flashed and a thin piece of voucher appeared in his hand.
‘This (Point Wash Voucher] feels like it’s been made out of a thin layer of plastic. It’s completely incomparable to the (Advanced Life Transfer Voucher) and looks like a cheap item.
‘However, in terms of style, it’s similar to the (Advanced Life Transfer Voucher). It’s completely black and has beautiful patterns on it. It even has the words (Point Washing Voucher) on it.’
Based on his past experience with (Advanced Life Transfer Voucher), Su Yang flipped to look at the back of the voucher first. He wanted to see if there were any restrictions on it. Indeed, there was a line of finely printed silver words on the back of the voucher: This voucher can only wash one point per use. The points that have been washed will not be returned. You may choose which points you wish to wash if there are multiple points.
After Su Yang finished reading the words in sliver, he was speechless.
‘I can freely choose which point I want to wash?
‘Why didn’t you say so earlier!
‘Why did I have to wait for so long!
‘If I had known that [Point Wash Voucher) was so epic, I would have added three points first and then wash away the second point!’ Su Yang felt. ‘I’ve been tricked by the system again.
‘But, I’m actually happy to be tricked like this.
‘I think I’ve turned into a masochist.’
Su Yang looked at the time and realized that it was only 8 pm. He had a few hours to spare before his next errand, so he did not plan to drag it out. Instead, he decided to give Little Hus some extra points.
With that in mind, he locked the door of the hotel and closed the curtains again. Then, he took Little Deeny to the bathroom and entered the virtual space.
Upon arrival at the virtual space, Su Yang called out, “Little Deeny.”
Little Deeny’s voice echoed in the virtual space. “I’m here, Master.”
Su Yang asked, “Where’s Little Hus?”
Little Deeny said, “Master, Little Hus is at the swimming pool.”
‘The swimming pool?’ Su Yang walked out of the villa towards the swimming pool in the front yard.
There were two swimming pools in the house now, one indoors and one outdoors. However, Pool was the one indoors. Since his points have been increased, no one has used it. After all, no one knew whether Pool would sense anything through the pool… Therefore, most of the monsters would be referring to the swimming pool at the front yard when they mentioned swimming pool.
Su Yang arrived at the swimming pool in the front yard, and sure enough, Little Hus was there. Aside from Little Hus, Goldy, Dagger Girl, and Gru, even Qing Zhu and Janet were there as well.
Janet put on his one-piece diving suit which had completely covered up his body and was swimming in the pool.
Little Hus was watching happily with its edges raised. Its gaze was really… affectionate.
Su Yang felt. ‘Little Hus might be truly in love with Janet, the kind of love that transcended species and gender.’
Little Dagger Girl sat by the pool with its legs up and was smiling sweetly with its eyes closed. Gru sat next to it and made a gurgling noise as if it was whispering something to the other.
The two monsters were small humanoid creatures, so they seemed to be a golden couple as they sat together.
Qing Zhu on the other hand, sat sideways like an ancient court lady. Her long attire covered her legs, revealing only her fairly white feet.
Su Yang went over and greeted everyone before picking up Little Hus. ‘Ever since I’ve added a second point onto it, Little Hus has grown a lot bigger and feels much heavier.’ Little Hus was stunned when Su Yang suddenly grabbed it. “Su Yang! What are you doing? Let go! I’m not that kind of dog!”
Su Yang was puzzled.
‘What is going on inside its mind?’
He could not be bothered with this idiot as he continued to drag it into the living room and tossed it onto the sofa. On the sofa, Little Hus raised both hands in front of its chest and stumbled backward. It mumbled, “W-what are you doing? I’m warning you, Janet will not let you off easily.”
Su Yang was speechless.
He punched Little Hus. “I dare you to disgust me again!”
“Awoo!” Little Har cried out in pain and stopped fooling around. Su Yang placed it on the table and turned on the system. As he turned on the system, a translucent [+] appeared on all the items in the room. Little Hus was no exception.
Su Yang selected the [+]. Instantly, Little Hus was shrouded in a layer of light, indicating that Su Yang had chosen Little Hus.
After confirming that he had chosen it, Su Yang took out the (Point Wash Voucher) from his pocket and tore it apart in front of Little Hus.
As Su Yang tore off the (Point Wash Voucher), a notification appeared in front of him. (Are you sure you want to use the Point Wash Voucher on this item?] Su Yang clicked (Yes).
Upon Su Yang’s confirmation, another notification popped up in front of him. (Please confirm the points that you would like to wash away.]
At the end of the notification, two options appeared before Su Yang:
(Bolster+1: The life undergoes an evolution, obtains simple intellect, speech, and a simple ability.)
(Bolster+2: Grow bigger.]
Only a fool would wash away the first point. Hence, Su Yang chose the second option without any hesitation.
As he chose the second option, stars suddenly appeared from the inside of Little Hus’s body along with some colorful lights before disappearing into the air.
As the stars flowed out, Little Ha was like a doll that had been… deflated. Its body started to shrink until it became the size that Su Yang had when he first bought it!
Little Hus looked at Su Yang in shock.
This time, it was truly afraid. In the past, it would always cause trouble or be annoying but it felt that Su Yang would not harm it. Or rather, he could not harm him.
But now… Su Yang had actually taken away its energy. This made it truly terrified.
Tears streamed down its face as it said whilst shivering, “Su… Su Yang, don’t make a mistake you’ll regret later. Killing dogs is illegal.”
Su Yang knocked its head. “Can you stop acting? You’re a bolster monster, not a drama monster!”
Little Hus pursed its lips and kept quiet and allowed Su Yang to do as he pleased.
Su Yang opened the System Shop and bought a (Guardian Talisman) and then pasted it on Little Hus while saying, “I’m putting a heavy investment on you.”
“In order to give you +3, I’ve spent 1,300 point coins on (Point Wash Voucher), three (Guardian Talisman) that costs 300 point coins each and two random points that costs 1,000 point coins each. That’s a total of 2,600 point coins. So… when are you going to reimburse
me?”
Little Hus was not stupid and refused to admit it. “What are you talking about? Why can’t I understand you? Plus, I haven’t got any point coins on me.”
Su Yang grabbed the little edge on its head and said, “Don’t you have a lot of fans online now? Why don’t you ask them to pay for you since they all like you.”
Little Hus gave Su Yang a husky stare which looked so beautiful. “How are they supposed to give you point coins? They haven’t got a system.”
Su Yang said softly, “You can guide them to do things. If you manage to guide 2,600 people, I’ll be able to breakeven.”
Little Hus was speechless
‘What a bully.’
The two chatted for a while, and the (Guardian Talisman) had finally taken effect. Little Hus was once again surrounded by a red glow from the (Protection Charm] like before.
Feeling that it was being enveloped by the red light again, Little Hus closed its eyes. He placed his two edges on its chest and prayed. “Please don’t get bigger. Please don’t get bigger. Please don’t get bigger.” Su Yang recalled what Little Hus had prayed for the last time—”Become bigger, prettier and more charming or become taller, handsome and human-like.” He could not help but stifle a laugh.
Sure enough, humans… no, dogs can change. After Little Hus finished praying, Su Yang opened the system shop and bought a random point. Then, he gently tapped on the [+] on Little Hus’s head.
[Are you sure you want to add the second point? Adding the second point will increase the failure rate. If you fail, the item will be completely destroyed.]
[Yes!]
Following his confirmation, Little Hus’s body glowed brightly. Like before, it turned into a ball of light and floated silently in the air.
Su Yang, who was experienced, looked at the ball of light calmly. A moment later, the ball of light disappeared. Little Hus fell from the sky and landed on the ground. It bounced a few times on the ground, proving that it was indeed a pillow… Su Yang sized it up. ‘Based on its appearance, nothing seems to be different from Little Hus.
‘At the very least, it doesn’t look like I’ve spent a point on something rubbish like changing its size.
Could it be that… Little Hus got really lucky?
Little Hus looked down at itself and realized the same thing. It bounced happily in front of Su Yang and asked, “Su Yang! Su Yang! Am I going to become awesome?”
