CHAPTER 03 : SHUT THE F*CK UP!
"SORRY BUT I'M STRAIGHT!!!" She shouted while delivering a punch to me.
Part 01
Damn, one punch and she nearly annihilated me.
"WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH YOU B*TCH!!!?"
"Hmmm? I told you, I'm straight."
"I don't give a ratass shit if you're crooked, curly or curved."
*Sigh*
She read the parchment.
Oh my beautiful flower,
even through the course time you have never wither,
instead you accumulate more peerless beauty,
oh my beautiful flower,
let us be together and vow our love of each other for eternity,
let us sail through the course of time and wither together.
and....... truly
I'm gonna kill that shitty guardsman. I knew there's something crooked about his smile.
"FYI I didn't wrote that you b*tch. I was given the job to deliver that stupid parchment over to you"
Why in the hell do I have stomach cramp for 3 hours?
"Arrrrgghhhh.... Damn it hurts like hell."
"Stomach cramp?" The woman asked."
"Yeah." I nodded.
"Are you having your period?"
"NO WAY IN FREAKING HELL YOU DUMB B*TCH!!! AND HOW IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE IN THIS WORLD?"
"Oh, some party mouth you are. Well I guess you're an Otherworlder then since your attire is that of a beginner."
*Ding*
*Ding*
My stomach cramp are gone and my health restored.
"So? Are you feeling better now?"
"...Yes ...Thank you."
"Well looks like you have some manner after all."
"You punch me out of nowhere, leaving me with 10% of my overall health and you gave me a stomach cramp."
"...Point taken. Now you are all patch up can you tell me who gave you the job?
"Some guardsman with a crooked smile named Jeremy."
*Sigh*
"Jeremy. That guy always love to pull prank since he was a child. And people wondered why he never rank up from a guardsman for all these years."
"I apologise then. So is there any other reason you are here? As token of my sincere apology I will help you in any way I can."
"Huh? Then can you teach me magic?"
"...?"
"Anything more specific?"
"Yes. Enchantment Magic."
"..."
Part 02
"Give it up. You will never be able to use Enchantment type magic to it's full potential."
"And why not!?" I asked furiously.
"You have no concentration. One punch and you will start cursing like a drunk sailor. Casting enchantment type magic requires high level of concentration. Concentration on the level of where even if you are surrounded by enemy all around you and are wounded you will still be able to cast enchantment magic fast and calmly."
"..."
"And as everyone knows a high level of concentration can help reduce casting time, increase accuracy and increase the range of casting."
"I still want to learn. No matter what it takes. I'll get a high level of concentration and learn enchantment magic."
*Sigh*
"Fine. As you are so adamant about it I will help you then. Show me you status."
"Status"
"...Whoa a noob."
"I'm a beginner, what do you expect? Some sort of Over Lord?"
"Fine. I think we can work with this. Firstly, we have to focus on your concentration. I believe I don't need to explain to you the importance of concentration again right? So follow me."
With that I follow... What's her name?
"Uhmm... We haven't properly introduce ourselves. My name is Apple. Apple Green a beginner"
"Huh? Oh right. The name is Glenda Manchester librarian of Astoc Kingdom's South District Library. You can simply call me Glenda. But if you are able to learn enchantment from me you need to call me master."
"Oh okay."
During our walk around the library, we pick up a few thing. We pick up numerous and various tomes. 'You and Magic', 'What Can Magic Do For You', 'Magic for Dummies', 'Magic For The Soul', 'Easy Guide to Magic', 'What is Magic?' and etc etc.
Everything we picked up are place on a table in a room.
"Alright. Now all you have to do is stay here and read these tomes."
I look at book pile on the table.
*Sigh*
"Hey! this is the easiest part. All you need to do is read all these tomes. There's no need to rush." She said with a smile.
*Shiver*
Why does that smile seems crooked. I start to become suspicious of her.
"I will leave you to your reading and I will send you some food later on."
"Oh, okay."
"...Oh my, I almost forgot the crucial part of this tor- I mean training."
"...?"
A wave of her hand and some sort of plant suddenly appeared.
"This is called the 'Singing Plant'. Some people says noise disturb their concentration. But, with this your concentration will ten fold if you are able read while it sings."
"Oh okay."
"Happy reading Miss Apple."
*Sigh*
Another one.
"By the way, I'm a man"
Glenda froze a turns her head.
"...So... You're a trap then."
"Don't call me that!" I stated furiously.
"Hahahahhhaha it's a trap." Then she left the room.
"~~ I love you You love me,
We're a happy family,
With a great big hug and a kiss from me to you.
Won't you say you love me too,
I love you You love me,
We're best friends like friends should be,
With a great big hug and a kiss from me to you.
Won't you say you love me too,
I love you You love me,
We're a happy family,
With a great big hug and a kiss from me to you.
Won't you say you love me too,
I love you You love me,
We're best friends like friends should be,
With a great big hug and a kiss from me to you.
Won't you say you love me too ~~"
As soon as the door is closed the plant started to sing. Oh, I recognized this song. I used to watch the TV Show that features it. Wondered why stop I watching it though.
With the plant started singing I also started to read. And soon enough.
*Ding*
*Ding*
*Ding*
*Ding*
*Ding*
*Ding*
And it keep on coming for every 2-3 minutes.
Then this came up.
*Ding*
Yes! My first skill. Happy with what I gained, I continue to read diligently and happily.
30 minutes later.
"WOULD YOU SHUT THE F*CK UP!!!"
I roared at the singing plant. But it continues to sing again and again without fail like a recording and I think it's getting even loud and louder. Now I remembered why I stop watching that tv show. It was annoying as hell. At first I loved it and started to sing along whenever the show was on. Then even after the show is over the song stuck to my head. I ignore it thinking it'll go away sooner or later but it didn't. It got so bad that if I'm left alone somewhere quiet I'll start to sing it subconsciously and kids will start keeping their distance since I'm creeping them out with my sudden singing. It got so bad that even the adult start thinking there's something wrong with me.
This tale has been pilfered from Royal Road. If found on Amazon, kindly file a report.
It was one hell of a sad childhood.
"~~.....We're a happy family,
With a great big hug and a kiss from me to you....~~"
That's it I'm taking a break.
I approached the door and tried to open it.
"Hmm? Why is it locked?"
"Glenda!? Are you out there!?" I shouted hoping that somebody would hear me.
*Glowing*
Then something glowing appear in the room and drop on the table. It's a piece note.
'You have all the time in the world you need in order for you to finish reading all the tomes. You will stay in that room as long as it takes for you to finish all those tomes . The door will unlock and the plant will stop singing when you finish reading all those tomes. P.S. In case you haven't notice the the 'Singing Plant' will get loud and louder with every passing moment.:have_a_nice_day:'
:angry:!@#$%^&*!@#$%^&*!@#$%^&*&^%$#@!.(Author's Note : I'll leave it up to you imagination)
I turn to the plant and attack it or tried anyway.
*Zap zap*
"Blurrbllllurrrrrrrreeeeeeerrrrbbbbbllurrrrrr"
"Glowing" Another note drop on the table.
'P.S.#2 Be careful now and don't attack the flower because I've set up a barrier there. If you're unlucky you might just get the 25% chances of paralyzing effect. So unless you want to spend time drooling on the floor be my guest.'
Now! She tells me.
Fine. I'll read.
"~~...I love you You love me,
We're a happy family,
With a great big hug and a kiss from me to you.
Won't you say you love me too,
I love you You love me,...~~"
"!@#$%^&**&^%$#@@@@!@#$%^&**&^%$#@!@#$%^&*"
"~~...I love you You love me,

As Apple Green starts to read. He also starts to curse. The louder the plant sings the more he curse. But, nontheless he continues to read while releasing a torrent of curse after curse to counter the singing.
3 hours later.
*Ding*
Jackpot. He thought.
"!@#$%^&**&^%$#@!@#$%^&***&^%$#@!!@#$%^&**&^%$#@!@#$%^&***&^%$#@!!@#$%^&**&^%$#@!@#$%^&***&^%$#@!!@#$%^&**&^%$#@!@#$%^&***&^%$#@!!@#$%^&**&^%$#@!@#$%^&***&^%$#@!!@#$%^&**&^%$#@!@#$%^&***&^%$#@!"
Even after gaining the bonus status, he continues to curse as it's a mantra.
Part 03
A man in an aloha shirt walks into his office. Today he's wearing orange colored aloha shirt with an orchid design. The man is the developer/creator of the game Lore. But, the one that run and manages the game is not him. It's being run by the AI named Ai and manage by a team of highly skill programmers.
The programmers make modification and adjustment where they are needed, and the AI named Ai execute it after the changes are properly authenticated. The one that are able to authenticate those changes are the man wearing the aloha shirt.
"Ai-chan~ is there anything interesting in Lore right now?"
"...The Northern Rebellion has reached it's peak. The Kingdom of Zephyros will fall. The leader of the rebellion will then usurp the title of King. Thus triggering the ******* event which then trigger the ****** event if not stop and...."
"Yeah yeah, anything else? Something non-battle-rebellion related if you please and stop with that monotonous computerize speech you're using. I didn't spend time at MIT to hear you speak like a voicemail recording machine."
"...? Some dude ask for all random selection during character set up process. So I'm like 'now I have to choose?' and it was all like a pain in the processor."
"So what did you do?"
"The dude's brainwave was all like sighing as we move from one selection to the other, then he asked for all random so I search one for him from the list of unused NPC body since we have tons of those that haven't been integrated fully into the game with a setting. I gave him one of the body the programmer created under a folder named 'Trap', I checked it's gender so it match and that was that."
The man grin. The AI he created or rather have one human characteristic and that is imperfection. Meaning the consequences she cause was an unknown element. Will it be good or will it be bad? That why Ai was tasked with only running the game according to the setting that was set by the programmers. If it was left to Ai then the imperfection will cause the game to become slightly 'quirky'.
Of course nobody knows about Ai imperfection except for the one that created her. If anybody would've found out that the AI that runs Lore was imperfect it'll cause a major ruckus. The only reason why he created Ai like that is because he wants her to become 'interesting'.
"Can you show him to me?"
"Wait up, I'm bringing him on screen now."
The screen shows a man(?) reading a tome while muttering something.
"Can you turn on the sound?"
"..? Okay, but I don't think you gonna like it."
"~~...I love you You love me,
We're a happy family,
With a great big hug and a kiss from me to you.
Won't you say you love me too,
I love you You love me,...~~"
"!@#$%^&**&^%$#@@@@!@#$%^&**&^%$#@!@#$%^&*"

"... What is he doing and are you sure he's a 'he'?"
"Well according to the preliminary biometrics and brainwaves scan it's 99.9% a dude. As for what he's doing it seems he's training."
"Training? Show me in-game records."
"Access denied. Restricted area. Authorization require."
*Sigh*
"Do we have to do this every time?"
"Sorry. It's protocol. Protocol that you created."
"Fine... Oh. Please. Ecchi. No. Code 1110101001A01. Authorized entry Apple Green in-game record. Entry passcode 1029384756."
"Ppffftttt...... mom is the greatest hahahha."
"Hurry it up."
"Aye aye pops ppffftt..... Authorisation granted. Displaying Apple Green in-game record now."
He viewed and smiled. 'He triggered that sadistic librarian route and started cursing to counter the singing. Hahhahaha this is gonna be fun. But first let's fix that cursing of his since this is a family-friendly game and we can't let somebody with sailor's mouth run loose.'
He turn to his computer monitor and starts to fiddle with the keyboard.
"Execute. Integration mandatory." He ordered.
"Access denied. Restricted area. Authorization require. Pffftttt hahhahaha."
*Sigh*
This is gonna take a while.
