Chapter 143 - App Store Is Now Open
“Alterations?” Amy’s eyes flicked from Mag to the music box, and back again. “But I like the Mushroom Fairy. Will anything bad happen to her?”
Mag shook his head with a smile. “No. Instead, she’ll become a more wonderful dancer than she is now, and she’ll be able to teach you how to dance. She’ll have more pretty clothes.” Apparently, Amy had already bonded with the toy.
Amy’s face lit up immediately. “For real? But how long will it take?”
Yabemiya was also very excited. I can’t wait to watch her dance again!
Mag nodded. “About 30 minutes. Why don’t you go play with Ugly Duckling? I’ll give it back to you when it’s ready.” Then he walked upstairs with the music box.
The update would take 20 minutes, but Mag wanted to make sure the music box had nothing inappropriate for Amy.
The kitten gave a belch after finishing the savory tofu pudding. it rolled on its back and showed its white round belly, narrowing its eyes in satisfaction.
Amy pulled it by the ear. “Get up! Don’t lie down after eating!”
“Meow…” the kitten said lazily. It brushed its little head against Amy’s foot, and found a more comfortable position.
Amy frowned, taking her hand away. Suddenly, her eyes brightened up. “Sorry, I should let you get fat. The fatter, the tastier…”
The kitten seemed to have understood. It rolled back to its feet hurriedly, walking around the room. “Meow, meow!” it said to Amy, trying to prove it didn’t want to get fat.
Amy shook her head, and smiled a dangerous smile. “No, you ought to lie down.”
Ugly Duckling raised its voice. “Meow!” It started running.
Mag shook his head with a smile as he saw this, walking downstairs. Poor cat…
The system was altering the music box, so Mag went into the kitchen to knead dough. He didn’t need to clean the restaurant or buy milk for the kitten, and he had two ovens now, so he could prepare more bai ji bread.
When the system told him the new music box was ready, Mag washed his hands, and started up the stairs. Amy, Yabemiya, and the kitten stopped what they had been doing, and watched him with great expectation.
Mag went upstairs, and took the music box out. It didn’t look too different, only higher. The elf was gone, and so was the layer of white particles. He could see several red dots on its floor.
On the side of its base was a four-inch touch screen. Apparently, he didn’t need to push buttons anymore.
“The update is complete. The dancer is the same elf as you requested. I have given you 10 sets of clothes for free. You can buy more if you want—”
“Wait a sec!” Mag interrupted. “What is Miracle Nikki doing on my music box?! You plan to trick Amy into spending money on your stupid clothes! And you call yourself a respectable system!”
“Miracle Nikki is nothing compared to my work. The clothes are abundant and beautiful, the special effects are stunning, and the holographic device will show all the details of the clothes. It will give players unparalleled experience,” the system explained proudly.
“I want a parent mode on this thing. And I don’t want to see any ads, or you have to give me a full refund,” Mag said coolly.
“This is child abuse! You will kill your girl’s nature!” the system protested.
Mag’s mouth twisted in distaste. “No, unscrupulous businessmen like you are killing children’s nature. I don’t recall playing Arena of Valor every day when I was young.”
The system refused to give up that easily. “Maybe we should let the girl decide.”
“Or maybe I should demand a full refund.”
“Fine. All the pop-up ads are gone. Parent mode is on,” the system said disappointedly.
Mag nodded. “I won’t find anything like ‘Ifuudoudou’ on it, I hope?”
“Why are you so against ‘Ifuudoudou’? It is another form of art. Many people have poured their hearts into it—”
“How many dance songs are on this thing?” Mag interrupted. Why doesn’t it understand that some things are not for children?
“Sorry. Too many dance songs might have too much impact on this world, so only ‘Gokuraku Jodo’ is available right now. The second dance song will be unlocked after your daughter masters this one. You can see all the 30 nursery rhymes in the song list.”
It was all Mag could do not to throw the music box away. Devious bastard. He turned it on, and found several links on the screen: clothes, dances, songs, etc.
Mag tapped “songs”, and found them quite normal. The first one was “A Little Girl With Mushrooms”, and then “Brother John”, “Duckling”… They were all very popular.
Suddenly, an ad popped up, saying, “App Store is now open, and offers many holographic game apps and gamepads.”
