To Jaai, it felt like he was held up in a sort of simulation. This cannot be real.
By the degree of beauty's measure, Jaai could swear on everything he held dearly that he had never seen anyone as beautiful as the lady standing next to the virtual screen.
He started to blink his eyes. Vigorously. He wanted to be certain that he was in his right mind.
No matter how hard he blinked his eyes, the lady never left. Nor vanished into thin air.
Jaai jumped off his bed and walked to the lady. He stood right in front of her. He shut his eyes for a moment as he swallowed a lump.
He knew he was 27, but he was acting as though he had just turned 19 last month.
He slowly reached out his hand towards the lady. He kept on pushing his hand forward until his finger hovered over the back of her hand.
Looking at her hand, her skin looked supple and soft. It looked like the skin of a newborn baby. Her eyes were dreamy and her face was so cute that Jaai almost started blushing.
Jaai finally made the last move to touch her body.
"Huh?" He gasped when his finger went through her hand.
He tried to touch her again, but the same thing happened.
He moved closer to her and tried to grab her by the wrist, but he couldn't get a handful. His hand went right through her skin as though she was an...
"Illusion?" Jaai completed the thought process.
"You're not real." He concluded, sounding very disappointed.
When he had seen an extremely gorgeous lady who had big boobs, a slim waist and the features of a goddess, all his worries had been gone.
Right now, the truth was staring him right in the face, and he didn't know how to deal with it.
He couldn't really explain why he was disappointed. It wasn't as though he fully understood what was happening.
Well, the brain of a guy usually takes a break whenever a sexy lady flashes a glint of her beauty at him.
Jaai walked back to bed and sat down. He was still in the hospital, and he had been woken up by the system again.
He started to recall what happened the last time he was at the hospital. That was earlier today.
Something like this had happened. He had seen a screen pop up in his mind. Although there was a slight difference between the experience from then and now.
Earlier, the screen had only popped up in his mind, but right now he could see the virtual screen being projected into the air right in front of him.
On top of that was this super gorgeous lady who's a mirage! Even though he didn't really understand what was happening, a part of him really wished that the lady was real!
"You haven't given me a name yet." The sweet voice of the lady knocked him out of his thoughts again.
"Who are you?" Jaai asked, sounding quite rude.
The virtual lady was about to reply when he interrupted,
"Oh, right. You're supposed to be my assistant." He nodded as he convinced himself.
"Well, assistant, to what precisely? What would you be assisting me with?" He asked, unwilling to hide how partially displeased he was.
"You can ask me any question about the Random Job Generator system. I have a lot of information about it and will be able to perhaps give hints in the future when the missions get serious." The virtual lady explained.
"Instead of the system displaying text on a virtual screen, the need for an assistant arose. But if you don't want to see me, you can just switch me back to an automated voice."
"Huh?" Jaai felt lost.
"This means that, if you activate the switch, you'll only be able to hear my voice. You won't be able to see me like this."
"Here is the switch." The virtual lady turned to the virtual screen, pointing at a blue light at the bottom corner of the screen.
When she turned around, Jaai was instantly distracted. His gaze shifted from what she was pointing at. Instead, he was staring at her backside. Her ass was round and big.
He shook his head. He needed to snap out of this. How could he be get carried away by a virtual person?!
"What if I don't want this system? I mean, why was I chosen in the first place?" Jaai got serious.
The lady turned around with a serious face. It would seem as though she was trying to match up with the energy Jaai was giving. But no matter how serious she tried to look, she was still very cute.
"You were chosen. You didn't choose the system. Well, after all, it doesn't seem like you have a lot of choices," The lady said.
"What! What the hell!" Jaai exclaimed. He was stunned to hear the virtual lady say this.
"You have such a bad mouth for a cute face." He scolded.
"I'm glad you found me cute. But it's the truth. The system has been integrated into your body. You can't part ways with it. Else, you'll die!" She stamped so randomly but seriously.
Jaai swallowed a lump at this. He found this scary and interesting at the same time. This virtual lady looks very cutesy and raunchy, with an innocent face and pure smile. But her words were sharper than a two-edged sword! She was blunt and honest!
She was nothing like the ladies he had ever known. In fact, she seemed more alive than the ladies in his life.
"Does that mean that I died when I fell from the stairs?" He asked, not sure if he was willing to hear the response.
"Now you're thinking straight," She replied.
Jaai's eyes turned red.
"What the hell! Are you this rude all the time?"
"I can do whatever I want! If you want me to be your little puppet, give me a name. Then I'll do whatever you want." She rolled her eyes at him.
"What kind of assistant is this?" Jaai was speechless.
"The kind you are stuck with." She snapped.
Jaai took a sharp breath.
"You want a name, right?" He took a strong pose in front of her. "I'll call you Mumu The Bull. Cos like a meme coin, your personality fluctuates!"
"Mumu The Bull?" The virtual lady snickered. "Is that the best your brain can do?!"
"Mumu The Bull!!!" Jaai yelled her name.
Suddenly, she dropped on her knees right in front of him, and dropped her head.
"Hi! My name is Mumu The Bull. I'll be your attendant. What's the first thing you want me to do?" Mumu said.
"Disappear into the interface and shut the fuck up!" Jaai snapped.
Like an obedient child, the virtual lady suddenly vanished. A small dot came to life in the center of the screen.
Jaai stared at the dot for a while, then his gaze caught something else. It was a purple card. The card was rolling.
