Chapter 405: The System is Trying to Trick Me! Again!! What A Shameless System!!!
Jen seemed to be confused as she took some moments before saying:
"I know we are in a brand new world, but all I cared about was the contest to rule my region, to be the king here."
I respected her honesty but also felt sympathy for her limited vision and ambition. "That's not good, as the world we are currently in is new, but has also a greater competition like the one this region has," I said, trying to explain things in her own words.
"Do you mean a king of the world?"
"Sure, but it will be a queen, and it will be me," I replied with confidence that wasn't misplaced, just like her own. She glanced at me for a while before asking:
"If I joined you, what benefits would I gain?"
She was considering joining me, and this was a good sign. "Don't mistake my calm and quiet domineer, I don't like those who think themselves better than me. if you want something special of me, then prove your worth first by your deeds," I said, before pointing out to the two demons standing on my side as I added:
"These two served me quite well in another world, in another life. and despite everything, I'm trying my best to make them return to their normal conditions, regain their former powers, and serve me again. serving me isn't just about benefits, it's about loyalty; as I consider those close and honest to me as my own family. And I never let my family down, not even when they are looking so dumb and refused by the entire world like my two demons here."
My words were strong, yet honest. I wasn't claiming something I didn't have or do, as this stemmed from the bottom belief of my soul. Jen glanced silently at me for a while before sighing. "Alright, I think you are a far better leader than I'm, and I hope you live to your own words and promise; compete onto the king position of this world. This will make my sacrifice today a bet that will win a lot more than I expect."
She said, as she lowered her head before roaring. At this moment, I had something strange to notice, something I missed during my speech with her.
"Why can I speak with you even though you aren't one of my pets?" That was a thing I missed from the beginning to the end.
"I'm different from everyone here; as I had a lucky encounter and got an upgrade during the formation of this world. you can consider me a higher evolved version of the monsters here."
"So that's why you are different from them," I nodded as I understood why she gave me a different vibe from others.
I glanced on the monsters standing behind Jen, they were over twenty heads at least. They all lowered their heads, following Jen, and the next moment my head was filled with many notifications of that system that I thought dead!
"Ding Dong! The elephant queen is giving you her allegiance. Congratulations you gained a pet."
"Ding Dong! The gorilla prince is giving you his allegiance. Congratulations you gained a pet."
.
.
"Ding Dong! The fox queen is giving you his allegiance. Congratulations you gained a pet."
"Ding Dong! The tiger prince is giving you his allegiance. Congratulations you gained a pet."
Twenty two notifications rang in my head, and I felt the system was quite frustrated by my deeds. The next moment two more notifications came out at the same time.
"Ding Dong! Congratulations on completing the first pet quest. You gained five pearls as a reward."
"Ding Dong! As you accepted extra pets under your care, and you didn't activate the next quest at this time, so you will get five pearls as compensation."
"Like hell I will accept this!"
My instant shout scared and startled everyone, but I turned to not face anyone as I shouted with a vicious tone and angry voice:
"I swear if you don't stop these dirty and cheap tricks of yours, our deal will be off and I won't stop at anything to burn you to pieces! Gimme my goddamn deserved rewards! And I didn't only get twenty two pets, I gained far more than that!!"
I waved my hand towards the rest of the monsters here, as each leader came with his or her pack. That meant I gained one hundred monster pets from each twenty two leaders!
"Ding Dong! Our deal was"
"Bullshit!" I didn't even wait for him to continue his blabbery, as I yelled instantly adding with a firm stand, "I want my share fair and square here! don't try to pull anything funny as I won't accept it! my quest was about accepting pets, and I now had thousands of them! Gimme my own damn pearls!!!"
"Ding Dong! Ding Dong!"
"Don't DING DONG ME and gimme my pearls now!!!"
I was really furious as right now I should have hundreds if not thousands of pearls, and this stingy treacherous system only wanted to compensate me with only five! FIVE!!! That system had no honor, did he think really I would accept with such injustice? Such a bargain even a child wouldn't accept!
I was totally furious right now, and my tone and attitude seemed to scare many monsters, even I heard Jen whispers to Mark, as she softly said:
"She is, as you said, crazy and lunatic! Wow!"
I didn't comment or react, as I now had another fight to handle!
"Ding Dong! This is quite a large number of pearls!"
"And I deserve them all! What's the target of having quests with rewards if not working hard to amass as much as I can from them?!"
"Ding Dong! These pearls shouldn't appear this early, they will topple the echo-system of the world."
"By handing me a small share of my OWN SHARE will topple the echo-system? Let your echo-system burn with fire and gimme my own rewards!"
