The System peeked at its host, who was frowning and looking around, and felt incredibly guilty.
It surreptitiously opened the System Mall and checked its own little private stash.
It had gathered some herbs while following its host earlier, so it now had a small fortune of its own.
Gritting its teeth, it redeemed three masks. "Host, the Poison Witch in the air was released by that grenade explosion. It's going to linger for a while, but we'll be fine if we wear these masks."
Wu Yue's face stiffened. "System, how many points do I have left?"
The masks were exquisitely crafted and looked quite sophisticated. And considering the price of that grenade...
Wu Yue felt her heart bleed.
The System fidgeted, furtively glancing at its host. "I... I used my own points to redeem these three masks. It's my fault for throwing the grenade too close..."
Wu Yue breathed a sigh of relief, and her gaze toward her chubby System softened just a little.
