Leo, while asleep, was seeing both the memories of this world and the memories of his previous world again.
The memories flowed before his eyes like a rapidly running river until they reached the cover image of a webtoon he had read in his previous life.
This webtoon was not about the world he had transmigrated into, but it was a webtoon where the main character possessed a type of system.
In the next second, the visual changed again, but this time all the flowing memories were focused on a single subject.
Hundreds of novels and hundreds of webtoons that had the word system in their titles appeared one after another in the river of memories.
This continued until Leo began hearing the sound that came from something hard hitting something else just as hard.
...
Unaware of everything happening at Sandara's house, Leo slowly regained consciousness as he heard someone knocking harshly on the door of the house. The dream he had just seen turned to dust and vanished the moment he woke up.
At first, wondering who dared to bang on his door so violently, he angrily walked toward the entrance, but as he remembered who it might be, he immediately shortened his steps, headed toward the kitchen, and grabbed a knife to protect himself.
Then he approached the door and tried to look through the peephole to see who was pounding on it. But at that moment, he remembered something else.
Just moments ago, the golden finger he had obtained was taken from him by an unknown alien technology.
At that moment, Leo felt pain in both his back and his chest, and he quickly used the full-length mirror beside the front door to check himself.
The first thing he saw was redness on both his back and his chest, as if he had taken a blow, but since there was no shade of purple in the redness, he ignored it and put his t-shirt back on.
Tak Tak Tak
"Hey, open the door already. I know you are inside. If you do not open it, I will break it."
Hearing the voice of an adult man, Leo picked up his phone and began dialing the number for the police.
[Congratulations, host, based on the fusion of the good luck and bad luck energy you possess, you have earned the chance to choose one of two different systems.]
[The unlucky millionaire system]
[The divine faceslappers' choice system]
[Please select one of the two systems. Since this is your first choice, you can also receive a welcome package from the system you choose.]
After finishing reading the holograms floating in front of him as if hypnotized, Leo hunched his back like a psychopathic schizophrenia patient and began laughing in a low voice.
When Leo first arrived in this world, he always imagined that if he awakened a system one day, he would stay calm. But now he was drooling, giggling like a mouse, and had even lost the ability to think properly from excitement.
A strong kick to the door caused dust to spill from the walls of the house, snapping Leo out of his fear.
As a main character, he immediately realized that the system had come to save him at the most dangerous moment.
At that moment, Leo read the system messages again and understood what was happening.
Apparently, the alien cube from earlier was not part of this world's background story but was actually his own cheat.
After thinking for a short while, Leo decided to choose the second option with the wisdom gained from the hundreds of webtoons he had read in his past life. By now, Leo had already forgotten that the cube had tried to steal his cheat and run away in the beginning.
In the end, fate had intervened and somehow united the system and Leo, at least in Leo's eyes.
...
[Congratulations, host, you are now the owner of the Divine Face Slappers Choice System]
(Author's note: even if you hate this type of system, I recommend you do not drop the novel because the system will change regularly in the future. Actually, you could have guessed this based on what I wrote, but I wanted to remind you anyway. Also, this is not a novel where the main character rides a Ferrari La Ferrari in the first chapter, uses his hundreds of billions to take women to bed, tells them he loves them, and then forgets them.)
Leo had multiple reasons for choosing this system over the other, but only one of those reasons mattered to him.
The unlucky millionaire system looked like it was taken from an ordinary wealth novel with no superpowers or action scenes, but the face-slapping system clearly looked like it came straight out of a Chinese webtoon.
Everyone knows that, whether it is a webtoon or a novel, if the source of the fiction is China, the story will soon begin turning into a cultivation novel. More precisely, there is nearly a ninety percent chance of that happening.
After selecting his system, Leo received the welcome package he had been expecting, but the package was not what he had imagined.
[Congratulations, host, since you are a beginner host, when making your first choice, you will receive the rewards of all options, and you will be able to obtain your rewards before performing the action required by the choice.]
[A situation requiring you to make a choice has been detected. Please choose one of the options]
[1) Open the door and slap the rude person knocking on your door before your opponent can react. (Reward = single-use maximum health card, cures all congenital or acquired diseases but does not work on injuries)]
[2) Call Park Sandara and tell her you want to be her pet and ask her to slap the person at your door for you. (Reward = femboy fox costume set)]
[3) Call the police and hide while masturbating until the police bring help. (Reward = strength stat plus one)]
[4) Jump out the window and run without looking back. You are the fastest; no one can catch you. (Reward = Aston Martin Vantage GT3, approximately one billion won)]
After looking at the options for a while, Leo saw that there were only two choices he could actually pick.
He could not jump from the window because the windows had iron bars, and even if he wanted to jump from the second floor, there was only concrete ground directly beneath the windows. Meaning, if he jumped from the second floor, his chances of getting injured were high, and adding to that the fact that Leo could not run, the last option was automatically eliminated.
There was no need to even look at the second option. Leo was already thinking about how to destroy the reward for the second option.
If he chose the first option, he would likely get beaten up, but this was not certain because he would regain his health, and his strength stat would increase by one point.
The third option was actually the most logical one, but Leo's self-respect did not allow him to choose it.
Leo decided to pick the first option and stay in the hospital for a few days in exchange for what he would gain, but something still bothered him.
Every single choice offered by this cursed system was more troublesome than the last. And the rewards were the same.
He wondered what would have happened if the beginner package had not given all the rewards.
