《The Torture System》Morning-Star Hotel

" System, can you teleport me to the Sun Sect?"
System," Yes, but I won't."
" Why?!"
System," I'm too lazy to do it."
" Please, I beg you, almighty system..."
System," Alright useless bastard. I'll need 2 days to power up though."
" Ok, sure. I'll find a house to stay while you power up then. Wait... I don't know what the currency of this world is..."
System," You ever heard of the saying, the strong feed on the weak? You probably didn't. Just go to any hotel or whatever and tell them that you need a place to stay and that you have no money. They'll let you stay there for free and give you money."
" But that's just blackmailing them with my power. I don't want to be such a despicable man."
System," You didn't pay the noodle shop you ate from. You just walked away after eating their food."
" I... Look, I forgot k? There's no way I would've done that on purpose."
System," Well, suit yourself."
" I'll listen to you this once. But once I have money I won't do this again, ever. Well, I should ask around for nearby hotels. Uh, hello? Is there any hotels near here?"
" Uh, yes. There are many hotels near here. I would recommend you go to the Morning-Star Hotel. They have the best overall prices and services.", said the stranger.
" Thanks. Also, can you take me to the Morning-Star Hotel?"
" No problem at all. Just follow me.", replied the stranger.
...
" This is Morning-Star Hotel. I'll take my leave now.", said the stranger.
" This place seems like a decent place to stay. I wonder how they'll respond to me not wanting to pay up... I hope they don't get too mad."

" Hello, sir, welcome to Morning-Star Hotel. We promise to not let you down.", said the manager.
" I would like to book a room for 2 days please."
" Sure, I will give you one of our premium rooms. Enjoy your stay. If you need anything just call me.", said Chen Feng (he's the manager).
" I'm really sorry but I will be unable to pay you. I came from a place that's very far away from here and the currency seems to be very different. So if there's any way I can compensate you, I will be happy to do so."
" No, please. You coming to our hotel is a blessing. There's no need for you to pay at all. Just enjoy your stay.", said Chen Feng.
" Thanks so much. I will never forget your kindness."
" How about I take you to your room.", said Chen Feng.
...
" This is your room. And if you need anything just dial 1 on the phone and it'll tell you all the options.", said Chen Feng.
" Alright, thanks. (thinks to himself) This room is really nice and clean. I didn't think they would have such nice hotels... Well, I am a bit hungry so I guess I'll call for room service." (dials 1)
" Press 1 again to file any complaints, press 2 for room service...", said the phone.
" Hello. What would you like to order?", said Yue Feng.
" I would like some dumplings, pork chops,..."
" Sure. The food will be sent to your room as soon as it is ready. My guess is that it'll take approximately 20 minutes for the food to get ready.", said Yue Feng.
" Alright. I'll wait then."

" Ah, the food looks delicious. Tell the chef that they're the best cook I met in my life."
" Oh, thanks. Also if you need anything else just call room service again.", said Yue Feng.
" Wait, you made the food?"
" Yes, I did. I am the head chef. Today none of the other chef's are here so I made the food for you personally.", said Yue Feng.
" I see. No wonder the food looks so delicious. It was personally made by you."
" Alright, I'll take my leave then. Bye.", said Yue Feng.
" (while eating the food) This food is delicious. She really is a great cook. (after eating) I guess since I have nothing else to do, I can go to sleep."
System," You lazy fu*k."
" The fu*k is wrong with you? I can't even take a break now?! Who do you think you are buddy? You can't tell me what to do. Screw you I'm going to sleep.

Gray's Crucible
“The value you have brought to trade is immense, more than a thousand fold what any other traveler to Crucible has ever produced. More than even I produced during my journey.” The old man paused for a moment here, seemingly reluctant to continue. After a few seconds he begins again with weariness creeping into his voice. “As the Messenger of Crucible I have received the value of your life. You shall be awarded a body with potential equaling the value you have brought to this place in accordance with the laws of the higher realms. Now you shall depart for Crucible, but first; I, Jaze, will give you some advice.” The old man, Jaze, he had named himself paused a time. Time enough that Gray began to wonder if he was still present, when he suddenly continued in a low and serious tone, “You will undoubtedly have great potential Gray of Earth, but it is still only potential. What could be is not necessarily what will be. If you step foolishly in my world, if you can not live up to the potential you have bartered for, Crucible will crush you mercilessly and tear away your very soul.” A thought, cheerful and light was heard from Gray before his presence was sent rocketing away like a shooting star. “I’m looking forward to it.”
