Chapter 13: Humans Are Not as Good as Dogs

~4 min read 618 words

The system's mechanical voice fell silent instantly.

Wu Yue felt pleased; the Dog System must have realized how formidable she was—it didn't erupt in silence, it turned perverse in silence.

Anyway, she wouldn't turn perverse; she had to make the Dog System reassess its place in the family, no matter what.

Just as Wu Yue smugly waited for the system to compromise, the mechanical voice sounded again: "Although life is hopeless, please keep a clear head, host, and face your breed."

Your current identity is that of a weak, pure human female, not a mighty dog Beastfolk, so you cannot call yourself a dog.

This hopeless life will never disappoint you; it will only make you more hopeless.

Wu Yue gazed up at a forty-five-degree angle, two crocodile tears hanging at the corners of her eyes: "So nowadays, I don't even qualify to be a dog?"

The system wore a cold face: "Essentially, that's the case."

The Dog System's words were like a heart-piercing arrow, stabbing through Wu Yue's not-so-strong little heart.

It seemed as if gusts of cold wind were wailing from that hole, wow, so cold!

That remark isn't very harmful, but it's extremely insulting.

"Are you feeling very hopeless?" the mechanical voice said, tinged with a bit of smugness.

Wu Yue weakly nodded at the dog head: "Yes."

"Is life unable to see any light?"

She continued nodding the dog head: "Mm~"

"Do you want to return to Flowery Country to enjoy the good life?"

Wu Yue's eyes instantly gleamed: "Mmm mmm!"

"Don't dream…"

The system ruthlessly shattered her hope.

"Although you can't return to Flowery Country, with this system's aid you can turn this place into a second Flowery Country and live as before, enjoying the good life, feasting on crayfish and hanging out at bars!"

That's what they mean by 'give a blow, then a sweet date'—the system you're dealing with.

However, I don't feel you're all that impressive; you even docked my newbie starter pack.

She still holds a grudge over that newbie starter pack.

"Zzz… signal bad, the system will suspend service for maintenance; please, host, strive to gather and exchange points."

"System?" Wu Yue called out softly.

Only the clear birdcalls from outside the cave answered her.

"…" So, is the Dog System feeling guilty and shrinking back?

"Dog System, come out, let's have a good talk?" she said, gritting her teeth.

But the system seemed determined to stay hidden, letting Wu Yue whine and complain all she wanted, yet it remained silent.

"Yue, are you up?" a gentle voice came from outside the cave; Wu Yue had just brought to her lips the praise for the Dog System, but she swallowed it back.

She hurriedly climbed up and put on the grass curtain she had woven yesterday: "I'm up."

Hearing her voice, the female outside the cave entered.

It was the slightly weaker female who had brought her food yesterday: "Older sister was afraid you wouldn't get up, so I came to call you and brought food."

She spoke, extending her blackened hand, on which lay a similarly blackened wild vegetable dumpling.

Wu Yue quickly leaned against the cave wall to stand, reaching out to take her breakfast: "Thank you, Qingcao; is the gathering team setting out now?"

Qingcao nodded: "After the hunting team leaves, the gathering team will depart; you should hurry over."

Wu Yue bent down, picked up a woven grass bag placed at the cave's edge, slung it over her shoulder, and, holding up her vegetable dumpling, laughed at Qingcao: "I'll still go with you; are you heading straight to the meeting place?"

Where is it collected? Where is it collected?
