After saying proper goodbye's to her viewers (not the sad type), Lilia then devoted her attention to the system prop ups.
Seeing it's contents, her long time forged gaming side then resurfaced.
"Numbers are now displayed beside my level.... This is probably my experience points."
"And the skills that I received upon completion of the mission..... Are all passive and not active??"
Lilia began to contemplate on this. Having these skills which are passive skills were not bad. However, the words "increases chances" were on its description which then completely discerns the term percentage.
Yes, percentage. Which then implies that, there is a chance that the skill will activate. And a chance that the skill won't activate.

And basing on the skills rank...... With it being passive......
Lilia then raised her hands and let her body fall into the bed.
"Ahhhh..... Why am I being serious about this... My gaming side just appears whenever I see those prop ups."
"Moreover, why do I feel inclined to complete this things. I should be worried about it instead."
*Bing*

Lilia stared blankly at this prop up.
"....."
"Sys?"
"It's barely even the first day. And now your dropping this."
"And now."
"I only have three letter for you."
"W. T. @#$&!"
"SYS!!!!"
The day have barely passed and it was just about to be afternoon when she finished her first mission. And yet now.... The system threw two new more missions at her.
Moreover, these two new missions had harder objectives than the other three.
If she were to rank her missions, then the first three would fall to the idle section while the two newcomers would fall on the white collar slave section.
This system..... Was truly crappy!
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk....."
"The first new mission..... Is what now!!"
What was with this mission?! The system literally just inserted bullsh*t on it. What do you mean disgusted by going down the stairs?? Doing this has made her fit! Why would she get disgusted by this.
And what's with the relation of getting the idea and getting hit by a truck?!
A DIY elevator? Build it on the third floor of your home? Bullsh*t! Who would build an elevator on the third floor of their home!!
"I would host."
"Shut up you crappy system person killer."
"....."
"God, I'd rather build an escalator or an slide rather than an DIY elevator."
"Do you have the materials host?"
"I said shut up!"
"Lilia! Who are you cursing up there!"
"Oh ¥#€$! Uh, um, no one auntie!"
"Don't you no one me young lady I heard it loud and clear! I am going up there!"
"Deep robotic voice. Activate funeral music for our dear host is dead just because of her cursing me."
*Searching for, "funeral music" on system archive*
*Searching.... searching....*
*Error. There is no data for "funeral music" on system archive*
"What the hell are you two doing?!"
"What two?! Oh no you young lady, who's in there with you?!"
"Th-there's no one with me auntie!"
"I'm coming in!!"
"Tuuu-tu-tu-tuuuu. Tuuu-tu-tu-tuuuu.... Don't worry host. For I the great system, has a revive system to help you live through the torture that is about to happen."
"WAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!"

No seriously, I’m always open to constructive feedback. This story also displays my interpretation of a magic-coding-language (based on JAVA).
