Lin Wu graduated at the top of his class from the Savior Academy and received the outstanding-graduate perk of being assigned a job.
The System that assigned his job was aloof. Lin Wu didn't mind; it had a poker face and was good at its work.
Unexpectedly, the moment he entered the beginner village, the pink mist filling the air nearly blinded him.
The System coughed awkwardly. "Sorry. This is my first time handling this, and I picked the wrong genre channel."
Lin Wu: "?"
The System was even more embarrassed. "We're currently in 99 Kisses to Make You Love Me, the Savior. It's a female-oriented genre channel."
Lin Wu: "???"
Lin Wu: "Something's wrong with you. There are two censored words in that sentence."
This definitely wasn't what an outstanding graduate was supposed to read!
The System: "."
The System: "There's a way to fix this... Got it! As long as the world's people rate you 0, the Savior will automatically be replaced."
Lin Wu: That should be easy! Watch me. I'll restart tomorrow!
And so, the outstanding graduate made a few decisions that went against everything he'd been taught.
Outstanding graduate: The first thing to do upon entering a new world is thoroughly search every corner of the room you're in.
Lin Wu: Never mind. I'm leaving tomorrow, so there's no point wasting space in my inventory.
And so he openly lazed around in the little house with the System.
The next day, instead of the world restarting, the village chief showed up.
"You came to our house yesterday. Why didn't you take anything?"
Lin Wu: ?
The village chief gives you [Bag x1]
Village chief: "Lord Savior, these items were in the chest by my bed. There's one HP potion and five hundred gold coins..."
Villagers arriving one after another: "This is the mysterious shiny item from my potted plant."
"And this..."
The System: [Beginner village residents' favorability +10, Savior satisfaction +5]
Lin Wu: ...Huh? Wait a minute. That's not what they taught us at school!
The System: "."
-
A guard reported that the roar of an unknown creature had come from a cave on the eastern outskirts of the village.
Outstanding graduate: (search the blacksmith for weapons) (upgrade armor at the armorer's) (stock up on medicine at the pharmacy) (store valuables at home) (save the game)
Lin Wu didn't want to do any of that, so he tried to reach the high ground: "This is our village, and none of us can sit this out... So let's draw lots! Whoever gets picked goes!"
The villagers fell silent for a few seconds. "Brilliant! No wonder you're the Savior! You treat everyone equally! He must have seen our potential!" (tears.jpg)
The System: [With their minds opened to new possibilities, everyone's intelligence +1, horizons +2, favorability ++15]
Lin Wu: ??? Something's wrong with you people.
The System: Keep it up and we'll soon have the Outstanding Savior title!
Lin Wu: ...I'm so tired. Another day of wanting to restart and switch worlds.

Later, even the System started acting strange.
Capturable Male Lead No. 1: Your heart shines brighter than gold.
The System, shuddering under the syrupy words: Thanks, but he's not that expensive.
Capturable Male Lead No. 2: (says nothing, but his favorability is rising)
The System: I hate people who act so high and mighty!
Capturable Male Lead No. 3 came right up and tried to pin him against the wall. Before Lin Wu could react, someone had stepped in front of him.
The newcomer had long silver hair and stood firmly in front of him. "Hey, buddy, move along! Show some respect! He's a proper Savior. Don't go touching him!"
Lin Wu: ???
Who are you, handsome?
Premise: Respect the NPCs
