"It's not bad. "

Dorian was satisfied with the active skill, even though he was not expecting a flashy skill. He burned his ruined shirt and went further into the woods. While listening to cheerful birds, Dorian gazed at some random critters like squirrels. However, he used his clairvoyance skill on them in case those critters were monsters. He knew in this magical forest that looks could be deceiving.

"This is so fucking boring. Where are the monsters! Come on, author, give me something to fight! "

[I want to retire.]

After a while, Dorian got bored because he could not find any monster. Luckily for him, he heard a scream for help. At first, he wanted to avoid the confrontation but realized poisonous dire wolves surrounded him. Dorian saw many ugly eyeless, hairless wolves of various sizes.

[Hehe!~You did say that you wanted to fight something. Lucky you!~]

The system teased Dorian in a cute voice. She realized that if Dorian survives, he will be able to get either ton of experience or at least some self-awareness. She decided that this was also an excellent chance to give Dorian a quest.

[Anyway, I have a good idea. If you manage to survive this, I will give you a gift!~]

"Is it a kiss? "

[Fuck you. Die, you asshole!]

The creatures started slowly walking toward Dorian. They seemed to be cautious, as Dorian had the smell of one of their fallen comrades, so wolves did not treat Dorian as a little prey. They did not use poisonous spit because they avoided splashing their poison on their kind.

"Jokes aside, what do you suggest I should do? "

[Die.]

Dorian started to feel nervous. He realized the system was not joking this time, and the situation seemed dire. As the monsters surrounded him, he couldn't walk away, so he decided to take a different approach.

"Please, my lady, help me out. I am so sorry for all the trouble I caused. Yes, I am indeed an asshole, but forgive me. "

The system stayed quiet, and Dorian was getting tenser. He gripped the sickly tightly and was ready to go all out. However, in a moment, he heard a system's notification.

*New quest available – click here to see the instructions.*

"It's not the best time to read, you know... Fuck! FINE! "

The notification was somewhat different from before. The words 'Click here' were glowing. Dorian uncertainly pressed it, and everything slowed down and darkened. Dorian couldn't move, so he realized that his perception was enhanced to the extremes. There was an empty notification window in front of him. Suddenly he heard a familiar voice from behind him.

"How's it going, Dorian? "

"Could you come from the front? I feel anxious that you might do something naughty from behind. "

"Like what? "

"Me. "

The owner of the voice walked in front of Dorian. It was the god who looked like a teenager. He stared at Dorian with glowing green eyes and refrained from laughing. Suddenly he snapped his fingers, and green light engulfed Dorian, making him lose consciousness. Then he started laughing.

"Sorry, Dorian, but I am here for Luna, not you."

[Who are you? What did you do to Dorian?]

"Hello Luna, it's been a while. He's just taking a brief nap."

[You can hear me?!]

The system was shocked, as it was not designed to be heard by other people. What's more, this person seemed like he knew her. Suddenly, she started to feel sick. She began to feel.

"How do you feel? "

"I feel bad. What did you do to me?! "

Unlike before, the system saw darkness now instead of what Dorian saw. Even when Dorian napped, she still felt Dorian's surroundings. However, this time, the system was entirely separated from Dorian. To her surprise, she now had a body.

She looked down and slowly opened her eyes. The first thing she saw was her palms and the beautiful white dress she was wearing. Her hands shook, but she couldn't move, just like Dorian.

"What did you to me? "

The god of light gently smiled. He looked at the system with a longing expression and seemed sad. After staring at the system for a minute, he walked closer and gently touched her cheek. The green light emitting from his eyes entered the system.

The system looked like a beautiful elf teenage girl. Short height and seemingly childish, but her beautiful golden eyes fit that of a goddess. And a single tear that was stuck in time. She stood barefoot right in front of the god of light. The single tear was not because she was sad but because she finally remembered who she was.

"You look as beautiful as ever, Luna. I missed you. "

The deity approached her and gently hugged her. The god of light clung to her for a while as he would never want to let her go. He whispered one more time.

"I missed you so much, Luna. I told you I would find you. "

"Brother? "
