Glow (4)

"What's that supposed to mean??" Kevin pouted and then stretched his hands, "Feel it! it's like a newborn's skin! It isn't too obvious but the texture really changed,"

System 111 nodded, it don't really believe it's host much since Kevin don't look any different from before but it doesn't matter anymore

[Let's stop, that Qiang Qing guy should be online already]

"Ehh? Don't we have more products to use? Like ugh..ah! That body Fancify thingg!" Kevin asked, he's definitely not gonna admit he likes the results!

[Yeah, but let's go back]

"Ehhhhhhh But I want to continue," He scratched his nose out of habit

[....]

"What's wrong? Why are you quiet?" He tilted his head and poked the white ball who's got a hint of blue and red colors

[Haaah.. fine, I'll check the product] System 111 didn't say anything anymore and just minded his own business

Kevin frowned, is it only his imagination? Why does he feel like system is less energetic? Did something happened earlier?

"Hey, actually, it's fine if we didn't do it yo--" the words wasn't finished when a pill went in his mouth even passing through inside his throat, "Cough! cough!" Kevin patted his chest and then helplessly glanced at the system who was also speechless, both didn't thought that when the system was turning around to give the pill after rechecking it many times Kevin would also be behind me with an opened mouth

[Why were you even creeping behind me??] 111 puffed up

"Who would've thought you'll turn around and shoot out a pill, even precisely hitting my throat," Kevin replied that didn't answer 111 at all

[Ha.ha are you feeling anything?] 111 seemingly nonchalantly asked

"I feel....nothing!-- Pft." Kevin laughed seeing the rapidly changing ball, "Don't worry, don't worry, I'll tell you if I'm feeling something," Kevin smiled teasingly

[...Good] Tch, it felt like it's worries aren't needed anymore, hmp

"What was that pill anyway?" He asked while taking off his soaked clothes

[It's the Body Fancify Pill] System 111 assessed it's host body as it glanced at the outgrown hairs in disgust

".. what's with that look??" Kevin felt his lip twitch, he knew he haven't properly taken care of himself but can't the ball make it less obvious??

Now, everyone must be curious why Kevin can almost know how the system look at him even without any features at all, no anything but just a color changing function to know System 111's mood, it's because they have already been bound together so Kevin subconsciously think that System 111 have a mouth, a nose, an eye and all even if it doesn't have one

[It seems we have a long way to go for you to look...much better]

"Kuu--" Kevin felt like he's been hit by an imaginary arrow, with teary eyes, he clenched his fist and thought, 'Just you wait system! I'll show you how much of a looker I am that girls can't help going near me as men envy me!'

With such willpower, who knows if it's a requirement or just a coincidence but System 111 suddenly see a very inconspicuous change towards it's host's body, if not for it's advanced scanning ability it might've not noticed anything

Yes, 111 cannot feel anything that's why he can't see the difference after the cleansing pill made Kevin asleep, he didn't felt at that time that Kevin was still warm but he have an outstanding eye sight, at least 10 times better than a normal human

It seems that this will be a slow process..

[Since it seems like nothing is happening, why don't we change your outer look for now?] At first, System 111 thought that those pills are very magical that like after eating the effect will be immediate and Kevin will automatically look great but it seems that it's also limited and needs time

"Okayyy, what's the first thing to do?" Kevin is full of expectations

[Aren't you supposed to know that yourself??]

"Well, I never use that okay? I'm a natural beauty," System 111 ignored that and searched the Baidu, something invented by this world, a search engine that's very smart yet have no concept of human emotion

[Hmm, I think we need to shave your body hair first]

"I only have scissors.." Kevin raised his left arm up like those students in the school

[??? That's fine, let's just buy one outside]

"I still smell bad,"

[...] —_—

"W-well, maybe we should take a bath first," Kevin awkwardly turned on the shower again and then opened the shampoo bottle, turning it upside down for the shampoo to go out

*pshhhh* *squirt*

"...."

[....]

"It seems I have no stock anymore...?" Kevin avoided the sharp look of the system

[It seems you need to go out] System 111 grinned evilly, it didn't even bother it's intention as it turn purple, Kevin grimaced

"Going out once a while is also good," He difficulty said, drying himself up with a towel and then going back to his room

Wearing an oversized hooded jacket, a huge pajama, a mask, a sunglass, a hat, and gloves as he took his phone and umbrella, going out of the apartment after a deep breath

Suspenseful music at the background..

[There's no need to be suspicious right?] System 111 rolled it's eyes and followed it's fully covered host walking in the dark alleyway

[Honestly, you look like a criminal]

"It's not like I'll be doing anything bad," Kevin shrugged and then opened his phone, searching up where the nearest grocery store is

"Wow, this is a nice neighborhood," He said sarcastically, "There's no store nearby at all!"

[Search for a convenience store, convenience] System 111

"That is just the same---??" With wide eyes, Kevin glanced at his phone and then, "Ahaha.." I'm sorry okay? He doesn't think there's any difference between a grocery store and a convenience at all! He bets that he's not the only one (>▂<)

Going according to the GPS, they arrived at Eight11 and then pushed the door open, Kevin is glad that no human was in the vicinity unlike the road where some people passed by, although it's actually only two times

"Hello, how--m-m-may I help you!?" The store clerk can't believe that taking in the night shift for his friend would make him see a bad guy! Fortunately, he didn't zone off earlier since he don't have any other entertainment or he might've get killed without knowing and just wake up in heaven, he mean, who wouldn't feel sleepy at this hour?? It's 2:58 in the morning for mommy's sake!

"Ah, um, ah..Emm..Can...uh..Sodium Lauryl Sulfate please!"

"YES??! NONE SIR, SORRY SIR!!" The staff cried out of shock, he's mind began to drift out again!! But really, w-what is this man talking about?! C-could it be he's asking for a poison??! Go to a drug dealership or a pharmacy not here alright??!! He want to cry and don't cry at the same time, he really wanna go back home now.

Kevin jumped out of fear and went out hurriedly, he don't wanna stay here anymore! The specie inside is so fishing scary!! Why do they have a gangster's face??

[....I wanna say you're pitiful but at the same time wanna say you're stupid]

"How mean!" Kevin crouched down at some corner and pouted, but, now that he have calmed down--

[Which took 30 minutes]

---Why was that guy lying?? There's obviously a shampoo just at the shelf by the corner!

[Bro, think of what you said]

"Sodium Lauryl Sulfate!"

[And what's that?]

"The scientific name of a shampoo!"

[Yeah, does everyone know about that rarely used name?]

"Yes!"

[Yep, there's no use talking to an idiot] System 111 tsked and really want to slap it's host

[Go back there and just think there's no other person there, grab the shampoo, pay for it and then go out]

"Uh..."

[I'll cover the face of the other] 111 can't believe it have to do something like this, this will become it's black history

"Hm...o-okay," Kevin sighed and thinks that it really need to fix this personality of his, this is a good opportunity right..?

-15 Minutes Later-

"W-well, that wasn't so bad..?" Kevin dazedly said, "Excepting the loss of money," He continued and go back home..
