《Re:The Worst System Leveling Turned Me Into A Zombie》Chapter 42: People Are Just Worms Pt.2

“NOO! What are you doing! Get up! GET UP!” Suzy screamed into her mirror as she watched Hei lie there helplessly. Endless tears poured down her swollen eyes and she trembled, unable to understand why he had just given up after dragging himself out of the river. “I know it hurts…but please…you need to wake up now…he’s coming! Wait…what? How do I know that?”
Suddenly, she felt the shadow of what was to come fall upon her. She knew that in mere moments, if Hei did not get up, the other Hunter would appear and when that happened, he would be helpless.
“No…I have to do something…but I have no mana!” She wrung her thoughts over and over. “If only he could hear me through the mirror…but it’s a one-way connection. Wait a minute his friends!” The cute girl bounced up and suddenly closed her eyes. Speaking aloud, she whispered to the System.
“Get me, Insolence.”
“Loneliness? I’m busy, come back later…”
“SHUT THE HELL UP YOU COWARDLY DOG!”
“Ah…Loneliness? You’re not still mad about-”
“One more word and I’ll come over there! Damn the rules! I’ll personally make your spine a part of my chair! No…wait. That’s not enough. But trust me, my blood-mist works on everything. By the time I’m done with you, you’ll look more like a piece of modern art than anything resembling an Admin.”
“…”
“Nice answer. Remember, you owe me for last time. If you don’t want me to make good on my promise, you’re going to get this right. Listen up! The reward for the World Tree Quest in the Underworld…can you change it to this?”
“W-What! T-That’s…you can’t seriously be considering giving him that? They’re not meant for mortals!”
“Remember what I said would happen if you keep talking?”

“…”
“Okay I’ll take that as a yes. Do this…and this…I’m sending you the details. Also, I know you couldn’t resist leaving him a Memento. I’m going to need access to that. Got it?”
“…”
“You can speak now.”
“Ah…I understand. It was my bad.”
“And don’t you forget it.”
“Look, stupid woman what can you do even if you have the address? It’s against the rules to use your System Admin identity when playing with worms…even you can’t seriously be considering breaking a Prime Directive…”
“SCREW THE RULES! DO I NEED TO COME OVER THERE?!”
“N-No! I’ve already made the change and sent you the address! Just dial up and you’ll be connected!”
“Great. You and me, we’re done. Now screw off, Insolence. Never mess with my territory again.”
“Hahaha…Loneliness likes to joke…hey…wait…you still there?”
