I Reject Quests

Rewen patiently waited in front of the door. He was in a pathetic condition. Not only was he feeling weary after running for so long, he was also soaked. 'I hope I don't catch a cold.'

As the door opened, Denny looked at him with a stupefied look. "What happened to you?"

Rewen bitterly smiled. "Let me come in. Right, where's Mom?"

"She had already left." 

Rewen's face turned bizarre. He was about to throw curses but controlled himself. There was nothing he could do. "I see. Did she leave anything for me?"

Denny took out the card and handed it over to him. Rewen calmly took it but his heart was anything but calm. He chuckled suppressing the urge to laugh and cry in joy. "Hey, I'm going to the bathroom. I expect there to be an extra uniform in the morning."

"Yes Sir, there will be one… I'm not your f*cking maid!" By the time, she said that Rewen was already half a foot into the bathroom.

'So fast?' Denny realized that she had underestimated the secret her cousin was hiding. 'It's good for him.' Her thoughts drifted to his reports. 'Do I need to apologise to him? I admit I went overboard with my pranks sometimes but isn't he at fault for not confessing the truth at the beginning? He himself was foolish. It's not my fault. Not to mention, I wasn't even present in the worse pranks Bianca played. He seriously can't find blame in me.'

It's very hard for people to accept that they were wrong for doing something serious, especially in the situation when no one blames them but everyone knows that they are indeed to be blamed. What Denny did was wrong. She knows it. Cal knows it. Viviana knows it. Rewen knows it as well. However, accepting and knowing are two different things.

Wrapping a towel around his waist, Rewen looked at the mirror in the bathroom and found himself a bit better looking than he was previously. 'Oh System, tell me, aren't I the most beautiful specimen?'

[Finding answers…]

'Wut?' He was just messing around. 'Wait. Stop. Don't find answers.' A deep premonition bode over him as he hurriedly said in his mind.

[Ding! A new feature "Appearance Grader" has been added to the System! Would you like to know the details?]

[Yes] [No]

'I neither care about the details nor do I even need to know as it's pretty self-explanatory. I want to ask, can I just not take it?' He went ahead and pressed 'no'.

[No.]

'Fine. I figured as much. Err, evaluate my appearance.' He said, giving the most badass pose in front of the mirror.

'Why the f*ck is the last one there!?' Rewen waited for a reply but didn't get one. 'Whatever. I better get the three sizes when I ask for them.'

He went back to his room and wore a casual outfit, then went to the kitchen to get a drink and casually strolled into the garden. "Alright then, time to get started!"

"What are you going to start?" Denny interrupted him. She saw him going to the garden and followed him. She had been curious about his newfound strength and was hoping to solve the mystery.

Rewen didn't answer her. He calmed his nerves, then started practicing the [Freestyle Knights Combat] technique. It was the only daily mission left to complete. How could he let go of the free rewards? 

Denny's eyes squinted as saw him punching and kicking in the air. 'The moves although unusual aren't anything noteworthy.' She waited for something interesting to happen for the next five minutes but all she got was silent grunts from him. Bored, she left the garden. Rewen continued doing the same for the next five minutes.

[Ding! Daily Missions from 'Basic Magic and Knights System' have been completed! Would you receive the rewards right now?]

[Yes] [No]

"Yes."

[+10 Mana Storage Capacity]

'I'm satisfied.' This increased his chances of reaching Rank 0 within a week by some margin.

He went back to his room and sat down on his PC. He planned to log into the VRMMORPG - CHAOS when he suddenly remembered a crucial thing.  'Not yet, I have to do the lottery. System, pull the lottery and show me how good my luck is. Also, don't forget to use the 10x Luck I got from [Missions to Doom].' He wasn't interested in seeing and pulling the lottery by himself. 

He went into the "Signature", one of the most popular social media sites in the Yellow Continent to see what's the group he and his friends a year ago created was upto.

Rewen: Sup? Anyone?

Gill: Ey, are you playing chos?

Gill: chaos*

Salica: Obviously, he isn't. He couldn't access the site by going to the virtual world.

Gill: I didn't mean it like that-

Rewen: The game is lit.

Junar: Only lit? It is the hottest game currently in the world.

[Confirmation needed to use the 'Tier 1 Bronze Lottery Ticket'.]

[Confirm] [I take it back]

'What's with this? Yes, confirm.'

Kesha: It's overrated asf. I would argue that Deathmine was better in terms of character designs.

Junar: Deathmine had an anime-esque character design but Chaos has real life-like characters. It's a matter of preference.

[Congrats! The Host pulled the item of highest possible rank!]

'Expected. What is it? Throw it to me.'

[Ding! The Host has received a Legend-ranked property - "Balls of Steel". Would you like to see the details?]

[Yes] [No]

'...' Rewen tapped on 'yes'.

- Indestructible balls.

- Can't be castrated.

"I see. How. The. F*ck. Is. This. Not. A. God. Rank!?" Rewen almost jumped with elation. Sure, this wasn't something he expected but it didn't mean he wasn't happy with this. The joy he was feeling couldn't be described in words. After a moment of extreme elation, he calmed down. 'Well, let's not overreact.'

He went back to chat with his friends when he noticed a private message sent by Gill.

Gill: Woah man, your morning interview has been uploaded into youtube.

Rewen's first response in his mind was 'what's youtube?'. Among the popular video streaming sites, there were Cutnik, Opum, etc. As far as he was concerned, there wasn't any 'Youtube' between them. 'Must be an underground or small site.' He didn't think too much and searched it up.

"What's this?" Seeing several kinds of video written in an unknown language, his curiosity was piqued. However, the very next second, he was dumbstruck. Below each of the videos, he saw something extremely frightening. "Why are these from '2027 years ago'? Is it some kind of joke that's supposed to be scary?" He knew that the pre-apocalyptic age ended in 2020. 

'What if this is a site that was lost?' Even though he denied this question, the question still revolved around his head. 'I guess there's only one way to find out.' He started browsing through the videos on the page. He failed to understand the language but that didn't stop him from understanding the videos were technically different from the other video streaming sites. "There is no category tag and every one of them the people somehow feel fundamentally different.'

As he was thinking hard to unravel the mystery, he saw two private messages arrive in "Signature". First one was from Gill.contemporary romance

Gill: Correction - itube, sorry for the wrong site. If you are wondering what this site is, this is a new site available only in the kingdom.

Rewen went silent for a while.

Rewen: You expect me to find my interviewed video among thousands of other videos? Send me the video link.

He then went to check the other private message. The private message was sent by a user called 'Richard123'.

Richard123: I apologize if I sound interrogative when I say this but how did you find youtube?

'How did you find me?'
