Chapter 7: FIRST MISSION, IT’S A SCAM!

{DING!

NEW MISSION UNLOCKED!

GO TO THE RED PAVILION, CHOOSE A MALE PROSTITUTE, AND BRING HIM TO JING PAVILION

ACCEPT | REJECT}

Before Bai Chen could even tell that he wasn’t ready, a translucent screen flashed in front of him again along with a girl’s voice.

Wait.

Even the sound of the system belonged to a girl, right? Then, why should he...

.....

“Why did I wake up as a gay werewolf Prince?”

Bai Chen had buried the question in his chest when he only found out about the fact that he was a gay Prince now, and even if he really wanted to bite the little white wolf, he knew that he would have to force the wolf for an answer first.

“No reason,” replied the little wolf with a shrug. “That’s the real character of Bai Chen in this world, and all you need to do is follow his character.”

The wolf gave him an indifferent answer, but Bai Chen was furious about it. However, because he still remembered the second rule that caused him to lose his 50 points, he once again closed his eyes while counting from one to five.

Bai Lang watched him in amusement but didn’t say anything until the brown-haired man opened his eyes again.

“Why didn’t you tell me about the fact that Bai Chen in this world is gay?” Bai Chen asked again after he calmed down once more.

“That’s because you didn’t ask me about it.”

“...” Bai Chen couldn’t refute because the wolf was right, but it didn’t stop him from voicing another protest, “I don’t care if the Bai Chen in this world is gay, but how can I be gay? I’m as straight as a metal pipe, and I will only break but never bend!”

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

Bai Lang’s expression was as flat as Bai Chen’s chest, and a lazy reply came from the little wolf, “Are you sure about that? But metals are ductile and malleable, and they can be shaped, bent, or manipulated without breaking.”

Hearing the smart-but-not-satisfactory response, Bai Chen was fuming again, but then he remembered something, ‘This sly wolf only told me that Bai Chen in this world never cursed, right? He didn’t mention that I couldn’t kill someone using this identity, did he?’

The sudden enlightenment caused Bai Chen to hastily run towards the little wolf and was about to strangle the wolf to death. However, even when he had put his hands around the white wolf’s neck area, he still couldn’t strangle the wolf to death because he couldn’t even touch the wolf.

The pair of blue eyes widened before their owner suddenly took a few steps back until he sat down on his bed again. “I... I can’t touch you. Are you... a ghost?”

Bai Chen wasn’t afraid of wolves because he was a werewolf now, but it wouldn’t be the same if he had to face ghosts. Ever since he was little, his mother used to tell him stories about ghosts so he could stop whining about something, and it seemed like the stories were etched into his memory.

He couldn’t get rid of the scary ghost story in his head, and when he thought that Bai Lang was one of the scary ghosts in the story, he could feel his heart pounding like crazy.

‘No, heart. You can’t thump so fast. I’m afraid I’ll die of another heart attack if you’re beating this fast,’ Bai Chen inwardly spoke to his heart as his right hand patted his left chest to calm his heart.

“You only need to know that I’m the creator of the system, and since you’ve agreed with me to accept missions from me, then you can’t simply reject your first mission. Or else, the system will deduct another 50 points from you, and you will die as a result.”

“...” Bai Chen still didn’t respond to the white wolf’s words, but then he remembered something as he asked, “I can’t touch you, but you can touch me. What kind of creature are you?”

He just remembered when Bai Lang bit his arm effortlessly, and the incident caused him to furrow his brows as he grew even more confused.

“That’s my privilege,” Bai Lang replied carelessly.

“...” And Bai Chen was speechless again.

{DING! NEW MISSION UNLOCKED!

GO TO THE RED PAVILION, CHOOSE A MALE PROSTITUTE, AND BRING HIM TO THIS PAVILION

ACCEPT | REJECT}

But then the same screen flashed in front of him again, and Bai Chen groaned in annoyance. “Even if I prefer to bring back a female prostitute, I can’t say no to the mission, can I?” He asked the white wolf again. “Then, how should I accept this mission? Do I need to press the ‘accept’ option on the screen?”

Even if Bai Chen was unwilling to undertake the mission, he knew that he had no choice but to accept the first mission. ‘I just need to bring back the male prostitute, right? The system didn’t tell me that I had to do something with the prostitute, did it? I don’t think this mission will be dangerous,’ Bai Chen smirked when he suddenly realized an important fact.

Little did he know, Bai Lang was also smirking at him because the little wolf could read the young man’s mind.

“Just say in your heart that you will accept the mission. There’s no need to press the screen because the screen is the same as my body. You can see it, but you can’t touch it.”

Bai Chen heard the little wolf’s explanation, and he could prove that the wolf was telling the truth when he finally said that he would accept the mission.

{HOST HAS ACCEPTED THE MISSION!

HOST MUST COMPLETE THE MISSION WITHIN 24 HOURS TO GET 50 POINTS REWARD}

The screen flashed in front of him right after he accepted the mission, and Bai Chen widened his eyes in surprise. “Why did the system only notify me of the time limit now? It should have told me about it before I accepted the mission!” Bai Chen voiced his complaint at the little wolf, but the little wolf just shrugged its shoulders.

“You could have asked the system about the time limit, but you didn’t do that before you accepted the mission. It’s your fault then.”

“...”

Bai Chen felt like he had been scammed!
