《Hunger for affection》Act II - Palace | Friend

Yue Jin, If Rin had a word to describe her, it would be lively
From the first day that Rin started her monotonous work in the laundry, she has always been by her side with her outgoing personality, brightening her day.
At first, Rin distrusted her, a product of her previous betrayals, but it was inevitable to gain confidence, that by spending so much time together and without any proof.
And with this confidence came the information that both of them learned from each other as the days passed.
Yue Jin was born into a nomadic tribe of beastly wolves, but it happened, that while traveling the country, they were assaulted by slavers, resulting in the death of her parents, and the enslavement of her and her older sister.
In that short period, both sisters were sold, in different places, with the palace being Yue's final destination.
Rin, knowing this, reasoned that by becoming a slave after living a good life, it could be the cause of her optimism, but this was only a guess, and she did not care much, she only cared about living as well as possible in this prison. and that her partner is cheerful was not bad for her.
Rin's experience in the palace was not bad, without counting the mistreatment of humans towards her, she had enough food to avoid hunger, the work although tedious was acceptable, she had a good partner, there were no physical abuses, and best of all, a hope.
This particular hope was provided from her companion within three days of beginning her duty beginning with these words.
"Listen, listen, Rin, I suppose because you are new and you are a beast that I think they have not told you, but here you receive a monthly salary, with which you can buy, among other things, your freedom."

At these words, Rin opened her eyes in surprise and then expelled this word.
"Seriously?."
"Yes, really, it took me three months to find out, my colleagues kind of agreed not to tell me anything... well, the good thing is that we can be free, the bad thing is that we have to save a lot..., I estimate that it would be eight years of work, and I'm barely 5 months old ... well, something is something, you don't think so.
Rin in response nodded her head.
"Of course you think so, who doesn't want to be free, well, maybe some of these crazy servant, who seek to be something of the prince, but that is something that is almost impossible for them, and even more so for us" Yue explained, then took a breath and said "well, well, that aside, what would you do if you were free?"
This question, for Rin, was something very important and imprecise for her, at first she wanted to go home, but this was soon crossed out by reasoning that there was nothing good in there.
After that, she felt love and wanted to start a family with someone she loved, but this was destroyed as a result of betrayal.
From here on, she stopped thinking about it, only wishing for little pleasures like food, or a good home, and for this Rin hesitated for a while before answering.
"I don't know, living without masters and with food."
"Umm, well at least it's not impossible, the first is easy, the second will be seen, well, in my case I would like to search for my sister, hey, what if you help me after being free? If you accept I'll share some of my savings, so we can go out at the same time, what do you say?"

This sudden proposal took Rin by surprise, but thinking about it a bit, she who was lost in what to do did not think it was a bad idea so she agreed with a nod.
"Really? That's great, but we have to do it seriously," Yue commented happily, then extended her closed fist with only the pinky extended towards Rin, and then told her, "This is a pinky promise, it's very important, it means umm..., I don't know, but it's very important, come take my finger with your little finger."
On the other hand, Rin, a little surprised by this unusual proposal, without giving any importance to this, took her partner's finger, to wait for her response.
"Well, then I promise for my little finger, now you," Young Yue promised.
"I promise for my little finger..."
Rin promised a little insecure, but this was enough to make Yue happy, and also make herself a little happy.

The Systems of the Multiverse - A Guide for the Multiversal Traveler
The Systems of the Multiverse have their issues. I, an observer from outside the multiverse have made it into my mission to tell you, the multiversal traveler about those issues and dangers. This is a relatively low effort NaNoWriMo and Writhathon project. I want to test myself if I can manage 55k words in a month, likely updating every single day until the end. This story is told in the form of an in universe book. Well, I say story... While this definetly won't be great, I still hope it will be enjoyable. I do my best to avoid grammar mistakes and spelling issues, but won't promise anything. Corrections are welcome, this is also an excercise to improve my writing from a technical standpoint. Not from a worldbuilding and character standpoint however, for that you need time. Oh, the keyboards (and computers) that the observer destroys are not real and only exists in story to have an excuse to easily end this story at the end of NaNoWriMo. I also personally like reading LitRPG stories, so this isn't meant to hate them. It might come over that way, but many of those issues are simply fun to think about: what would really happen if the world is so, seen through a lease of negativity :-) [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
