Chapter 3 - Chapter 2 - Occupation Registration Hall

"Wow..."

Oh right you guys can't see this, to give a brief description of the features, think marble pillars, stained glass windows, with at least 10 floors. I know it's a strange combination but these people somehow make it work.

But the reason I said wow was because there was such a stark difference between this building and the rest of the town. It's like this building is from the 20th century while the rest of the town was from the Middle Ages. So random.

Let's go in and get an identity token I guess. Where the hell is that unreliable system of mine. It's bad enough you kidnapped me from my world but you even abandoned me after all that... you fu.. *Warning* System: Host don't wrongfully accuse the system. With the readers as my witness you agreed to binding with me.

"I was scammed!!!"

System: Sorry there is a no refund policy. Please make better choices in your next life.

"Ugh... whatever I can't be bothered to waste anymore energy arguing with you. Just give it to me straight, why did you bring me here."

System: You do not have clearance to access this answer.

"..."

"..."

I took a deep breath to calm myself down. "Then tell me whatever you can from the clearance that I have" I said through my teeth.

System: For now host just needs to get an identification token.

"What's in it for me? I thought systems usually assign missions with rewards."

*Ding*

[New Mission: Get an identification token

Rewards:

1. Not being treated as a foreigner

2. Information about the world you are in.]

"Umm...System? Just how stingy are you? What the heck is with these rewards!!!"

System: Take it or leave it

Dear readers please pray for the systems future safety.

System: I didn't think host would care so much for me.

"No, it's so that you don't die from my hands one day."

System: ...

*Ding* Mission update: Time limit added

[Please complete mission within the next 10 min or suffer the consequences]

(Author's Note: I'm going to put what the system says in box brackets from now on.)

"For the love of God! How petty are you?"

[Do you want to test and see?]

"I'm going, I'm going, Geez"

I didn't bother looking around and just headed straight to what looked like the reception. I saw a cute girl with short brown hair, bangs, and round glasses.

"Welcome to the Occupations Registration Hall, how can I help you?" she asked sweetly.

"Hi, I would like to get an identity token"

"Oh a foreigner, that's rare around these parts, I'm Stella, if you have any questions just ask away. As for the Identity token just fill out this form and put your hand on this magic circle." Stella took out a form and pointed to what I thought was just some weird engraving. I guess that's a magic circle... Wait MAGIC?!! My eyes widened but that stupid system probably won't answer my questions right now.

I picked up the form and gave it a once over and was going to ask Stella for something to write with. Before I could do that I saw the form I read fill up with the information as if it were reading my mind and gathering the information.

Granted it was a simple form. Just asking for my name, age, occupation, and if I have any criminal history (not sure if anyone would admit yes to that...).

I handed the magically filled form to Stella and placed my hand on the 'magic circle' as instructed.

The magic circle suddenly started glowing green before going back to normal. I guess I must have looked confused because Stella started explaining. "The magic circle verifies the information you put in and checks if this really is your first time registering and if you have any prior record."

"I see, thanks for telling me" I smiled at her. "No problem, here is you identification token. Don't lose it." Stella said handing over what looked like a metal dog tag with a weird symbol on it.

*Ding* Mission Completed

I saw the notification as soon as I left the building. "So system, where is the information you promised?"

[Host please follow the markers and make your way to the destination to receive your reward]

I have a bad feeling about this. What so you readers think? I feel like I'm going to be scammed.

I followed the arrow marks shown by the system and ended my in front of a building with Library written on a sign mounted on the wall.

"System? Explain yourself!"

[Congratulations host! The reward for completing your first mission is inside the library. The history of this world will obviously be in the library. What did you expect?

Do take your time reading up on the history of this world. It is important for you to get an overall situational awareness of this world.]

Readers? Please grant me the power to throw this system into the pits of hell! Please! 🙏

"Why do people in all the stories I have read get a golden finger from their systems while I get your attitude?"

[Host should have studied more instead of reading such novels. Please be logical host.]

"There is absolutely nothing logical about anything that has happened to me okay and I'm sure the readers would also agree with me on this."

[Host please make your way to the library to gather more information]

"You are probably the most useless system in the multiverse"

I cursed the system before making my way to the library.
