I’ll Add Points To All Things

The caller ID showed an unregistered number. Tang Jing had probably borrowed her friend’s phone to make the call. When Su Yang answered the phone, what he heard was Tang Jing’s nervous tone. “M-master Su, Xiaomi is lost again!”

 “Yup. She’s at my place,” said Su Yang.

 “Please help me fi-…She’s at your place?!” Tang Jing reacted to the situation halfway through her anxious plea. Her pitch was probably 8 dB higher than usual and was filled with disbelief.

 1Understanding her shock, he explained, “Xiaomi wanted to deliver your phone to you, but she forgot your office name and locked herself out, so she took a taxi to my place.”

 3Tang Jing failed to respond to the mysterious turn of events immediately. Only after a while, she came back to her senses and thanked Su Yang sincerely, “Oh, oh, I see now. Thank you so much, Master Su. I’ve troubled you again.”

 Su Yang shook his head. “It’s okay. I’m having a good time here with Xiaomi too.”

 5“I’m really sorry to trouble you again. I’ll make my way there right now,” said Tang Jing. She then hung up after sounding like she was really worried.

 Right after Su Yang stepped into his basement, a beep sounded in his head.

 [Random Mission Completed.]

 It was probably the easiest Random Mission ever. He did not need to fight anyone. All he did was sit at home and entertain the little girl with Gru and he even got takeaway as dinner.

 ‘What a pleasant day…Hmm, speaking of Gru…’

 Gru was not just a useless withered twig. After Su Yang came back, it extended its sprout and signed ‘1’ in front of Su Yang’s face.

 Su Yang understood what Gru wanted. “Okay, okay, I’ll give you a packet of milk.”

 Gru had done a great job after all.

 Su Yang played some music for it with his phone and poured a pack of milk into its pot.

 While Gru wriggled happily, Su Yang’s eyes were searching around his house.

 3Adding points was like a drug to him. He would feel terrible if he did not do it. He had just gotten a Random Point and was eager to use it.

 1“Which one of you cuties is going to be your master’s next subject?” Su Yang uttered gibberish with a perverted look. His eyes then landed on a bolster on his bed.

 4It was a long rectangle bolster with a husky’s head printed on it. It was a present that he had gotten from his supervisor from a job at the mall last semester.

 1His basement did not have a sofa, so he simply put the bolster on his bed. He used to hug it in his sleep or use it as support for his arms.

 The husky printed on the bolster was looking at him with its large, googly eyes as if it was displeased with Su Yang’s choice.

 1“I choose you!”

 5Su Yang headed to the bathroom to wash his hands. He used the piece of soap and rubbed his hands carefully. While washing his hands, he suddenly remembered that he did not wash his hands during his last ability-drawing because he had been so focused on smashing his face with the brick.

 2‘Maybe that’s the reason why I didn’t get any abilities related to English…’

 With that in mind, Su Yang prayed in his heart.

 ‘Please let me add the point to another evolution in life.’

 After his prayers, Su Yang walked out of the bathroom. He hugged the husky bolster in his arms and opened the Point System.
