In the early morning, the soft sunlight, like a golden veil, filtered through the thin curtains and gently spilled into Zina's room. The entire space seemed to be enveloped in a warm halo, tranquil and peaceful.
Qi Na slowly woke up, her eyes still slightly sleepy, her long eyelashes trembling slightly like butterfly wings. However, the first thing she did upon opening her eyes was to habitually check the system task panel in her mind.
The panel resembled a mysterious and enchanting magic screen, its text clear and striking, listing today's tasks. Task One: Fixed-Point Check-in Task - Go to Elite Elementary School to check in. Reward: One chance to win a prize. Accept task? Qi Na narrowed her eyes slightly, carefully considering this task. In her mind, a small abacus seemed to be rapidly calculating the difficulty of completing this task and the possible rewards. A thoughtful glint appeared in her eyes. After a moment, she temporarily set this task aside and shifted her gaze to Task Two.
Task Two: Defeat the Water Prince and prevent him from leaving easily. Reward: Three chances to draw a prize. When Zina saw this task, her eyes widened, her face filled with astonishment and disbelief. Her surprised expression was as if she had seen the most bizarre thing in the world. "Huh? Defeat the Water Prince?" She looked at the task panel again carefully, confirming that the task had not changed. A sense of absurdity welled up in her heart; this was simply a huge joke. "Defeat the male protagonist, the Water Prince? Are you sure you're not kidding?" Zina urgently asked the system in her mind, her tone full of doubt and confusion. Her voice echoed in her mind, as if questioning the entire world.
The system's cold, mechanical voice slowly rang out, as if it came from the depths of the distant universe: "According to the system's detection, the probability of the host defeating the Water Prince in his 'slacking off' state is 30%. Of course, the system will not issue tasks that cannot be completed; the host will need to give up some things."
Upon hearing this, Qi Na inwardly cursed the system. "Trash system, trying to make me work for free again. Last time, the reward only got me a 'Wind' Clow Card. This time, the reward gives three chances to draw cards; I'll see if I can get another card." Qi Na's mind raced like a nimble deer, leaping between various possibilities. Her brow furrowed slightly, a hint of cunning and calculation in her eyes. She was plotting how to extract more benefits from the system, how to win this game against it.
The system's voice carried a hint of weariness, as if it had just completed a long journey: "Host, what's your decision? I'm tired, I need to hibernate."
Zina pondered for a moment, then replied firmly, "I'll exchange three draw chances for one [Thunder] Clow Card and one [Freeze] Clow Card. After all, the system wouldn't allow all three chances to be exchanged for Clow Cards, but exchanging for two should be possible. If you disagree, then I'll just abandon this mission." Zina strengthened her mental response system; her attitude was resolute and brooked no argument. Her voice echoed in my mind, like a brave warrior challenging an enemy.
The system was initially very reluctant to give Zina two powerful cards at once, which was undoubtedly a risk for it. After all, with such great power, who knew if she would slack off? But Zina's next words made the system jump up on the spot.
"No, absolutely not!" The system couldn't let its plan fall apart. It had meticulously planned to use Zina's magic to absorb the Water Prince's power. So, the system reluctantly replied, "Ding, the [Thunder] Clow Card and the [Freeze] Clow Card have been placed in the system space." Then, the system vanished at lightning speed, as if afraid Zina would make any further unreasonable demands.
Qi Na wasn't too bothered by the system's disappearance; she had already obtained the card to defeat the Water Prince, and was in an extremely pleasant mood. A radiant smile appeared on her lips, as beautiful and captivating as a flower blooming in spring. She had long disliked this elf prince who thought he possessed the strongest power and looked down on everyone. In the original anime, the Water Prince also seemed to look down on Qi Na's cards; this time, she was determined to teach him a lesson.
Zina quickly rose, her movements light and agile, like an elegant cat. She tidied herself up and then, as usual, took Feiling to school. She knew the mission system would remind her in time, and she was ready to face the challenge. Her eyes revealed determination and confidence, as if she could already see the moment she defeated the Water Prince.
----------------------------I am a dividing line------------------------------
Wang Mo put in countless efforts in group dance, but the results were not satisfactory. She looked at the poster she had almost stayed up all night to draw with great anticipation; it was a work into which she had poured countless efforts and hopes.
But when her gaze fell upon the poster, her heart sank into an endless abyss. The poster that had won first place had now been maliciously splattered with ink, becoming a gruesome sight. Wang Mo stared blankly at the ruined poster, overwhelmed by a wave of sadness.
At this moment, she felt as if she had lost the protection of magic and had turned back into that clumsy ugly duckling. The other Ye Luoli warriors were all radiant and outstanding, making her seem so awkward and ordinary in comparison. This huge disparity filled Wang Mo's heart with loss and inferiority; she felt so small and powerless in this world.
