                    A pale sickly young boy covered in bloody bandages opened his eyes and looked around. He has long light bluish silver hair, a pair of beautiful pale icy blue almond eyes framed with long full lashes, a small nicely curved and small nose, pale red petal like lips, and flawless skin that is as smooth and soft as jade. His long lashes drooped downward, making his appearance extremely meng*. (Meng = cute)
His eye carefully scanned around the room for any signs of life, his face remained impassive. His slender brows furrowed as his eyes swept across the space one again. He woke up in a small white room shrouded in pure white. There was a small plain desk, a chair, and a bed where he laid on. It was blinding to look at and he squinted his eyes.
He had never liked the color white, it was too pure and it easily got sullied. In the world where he grew up, it would soon be tainted with the ugliness that lies in people's hearts.
This was not where he usually woke up in, nor did he see that dreadful 'father' of his.
[Welcome, my name is Bao Bao. Would you like to live? If so, sign a contract with me?]
( '[...]' Bao Bao speaking out loud. '<...>' Bao Bao speaking through telepathy.)
The young man, "..."
He looked around the room but didn't see anyone in the space that he was in. The young man's gaze sharpened. His eyes were like a deep dark well, emotionless and cold. Bao Bao felt goosebumps on his non-existent flesh from the young man's stares.
[...]
The young man remained silent, "..."
[*Coughs* ...If you sign a contract with me, I will help you in return.] Ahh, why is my first host like this? His eyes are scaring me! Bao Bao didn't do anything. Bao Bao is so meng, Bao Bao is a good system!
The young man's mouth faintly curved upwards, "Yes."
The young man didn't care who it was that he struck a deal with, if it was the devil or a God he would have agreed. Whatever and whoever it maybe, he would take their outstretched hand. Right now he was too weak, he needed more power to end the root of his suffering. In his memorizing eyes, flashed an unfathomable light and quickly disappears as it fast as it came.
If Bao Bao had heard the young man's thoughts, he would've spit blood by now and lamented on how he didn't get a cute and innocent host but a demon instead.
But how could the young man know any different? He only wanted to live. He wasn't taught how to, after all 'they' had only sought him out purely for the outcome only.
Bao Bao who was preparing to continue talking almost choked on his own words, [There's more bene- Eh? What?] Huh? How can you agree so easily? I still had so much to say to host... Wuuu~~~ Stupid manual... You didn't tell Bao Bao that hosts could be like this... Now Bao Bao embarrassed himself.
Bao Bao had wanted to seem 'cool' to his 'host', for his first time. As they say, first impressions are the most lasting.
The young man didn't speak again and stayed silent, "..."
Mmmm... It seems my host doesn't like taking much... Oh well, he can listen and I will do the talking! Hehe~
Bao Bao cleared his throat, [*Ahem* Uh, well then. Um... Establish soul link!]
Right after Bao Bao announces, a piercing bright light shines in front of the young man. The young man is forced to close his eyes, otherwise it would've made him go blind.
When the young man reopened his eyes again, a bright white colored chain could be seen extending from his chest and connected to a... ball? Yes, it was a ball. A very fluffy white ball...
On his left wrist was a silver vine wrapped around it like a snake around a tree. The intricate designs almost made the silver vine tattoo seem alive but if one was to touch all you would feel is his delicate skin.
The young man barely glanced at it, before looking back up at the floating white ball of fluff.
[Congratulations host! Our contract has been completed. From here on out we will be partners~! ☆*:.。. o(≧▽≦)o .。.:*☆]
A burst of colorful confetti falls out from the air magically and sprinkles down. Bao Bao flies around energetically while the young man observes him, "..."
Bao Bao who was overjoyed had forgotten that he wanted to look 'cool' and bounced around, finally caught his silly self and coughed.
[*Clears throat*
Mm... Lets get down to business, shall we?
Host, you will be transferring from world to world and completing tasks. After completing tasks, you will be given a certain amount of points based on the criteria required from the tasks.
Once you completed, you can choose to stay in the world until your vessel depletes it's life or you can choose to leave, therefore causing the immediate death for your vessel. If you fail the mission (which Bao Bao hopes that you don't) you will be punished, it can vary on what the punishments can be. The higher the difficulty, the heavier the punishment will be.
Next, Bao Bao will be explaining the point and world system.
The worlds are classified into eleven levels of difficulty:
F - Being the weakest world, you will also gain the least amount of points. - 75 points
E - 250 points
D - 750 points
C - 1,250 points
B - 1,750 points
A - 25,000 points
AA - 75,000 points
AAA - 125,000 points
S - 175,000 points
SS - 250,000 points
SSS - Being the most difficult world and having the most amounts of points. - 500,000 points
Each world will have a base amount of points given, there could be side or hidden missions available making it possible to earn more than the amount listed. For side missions, we will be informed of them at the start of the main task. As for the hidden missions, they will only be unlocked once host reaches a certain requirement. Hidden missions also give out more bonus points then the side missions as they are more difficult.
With the earned points you can buy items from the store. Any item purchased can be used in any of the worlds.]
"Any?"
Bao Bao was excited that it's host finally was intrigued. He laughed gleefully inside at how smart he made himself sound to get this wooden block to speak. (ノ'ヮ')ノ*:・゚✧
If Bao Bao had a head he would have his nose pointed so high it would be between God's butt cheeks. He would also earn the title 'bobble head', for nodding his head back and forth like a chicken pecking rice non stop.
[Yes, host. There is also another matter. After you compete a world, if the mission has been successfully completed, you will be given an option to learn a skill for free!]
The young man slightly nodded his head.
[...] Aish, my host is so boring. He doesn't want to talk to Bao Bao~~~
[Would the host like to have a look at the merchandise inside of the store?]
The young man's clear voice rang out, "Yes."
Bao Bao happily opened the store for its host. A transparent screen pops up in front of the young man, on the side were various tabs with categories labeled onto them and the selection of merchandises were to the right of the tabs.
The young man scrolled through the store, making mental notes of what he would need to buy. Currently he had zero balance in his points, so he would need to complete over hundreds of world tasks to get the items that he wanted.
Because he had a eidetic memory, he only needed to glance at the item and its descriptions once to remember every detail about it. Less than ten minutes, he had scrolled over one million+ items.
Bao Bao stares at its host, dumbfounded by the lightning speed that it's host was navigating the store at. A blink, he went through over a hundred pages. Another blink, another hundred pages.
Bao Bao can't help but wonder what kind of 'monster' he stumbled upon. Only later did he realize that he had met a 'devil spawn'.
