On her eighteenth birthday, a cold mechanical voice sounded in Lin You's mind:
[System binding successful. Main quest: Survive.]
She didn't know that this System was the form taken by Gu Yusheng, the volunteer teacher who had died saving her fifteen years ago.
As she completed quests, the System gradually awakened its memories. The mint candy reward was his old habit of carrying it in his pocket; the sudden classical poetry memorization quests came from the lessons he never got to finish. When Lin You established the Blood Lotus Pavilion to fight an organization bent on hunting down Host after Host, the System finally fully awakened as she lay on the brink of death. "A-You, the file is..."
On a stormy night, she crawled back to the earthquake ruins and dug up the adoption papers, stained with blood.
The signature line was blank. There was only a bloody fingerprint.
In the void, Gu Yusheng gently patted the top of her head one last time. "I wanted to write my remaining years... right here."
"When the dead become your System, staying alive becomes the hardest quest of all."
Theme: Redemption is not only about saving others, but also facing your own wounds and letting the love of the departed give you the strength to go on.
So interesting, please update soon
