Alpha's Plan

“Welcome back! Yay!”, There was a pop sound, followed by falling confetti around me. I blinked several times, only to see the system master standing before me with a party popper in hand and a party cap on her head.

“Congratulations on not dying! Oh, how much you’ve grown from that weak little chick! I feel like a proud parent who’s watching their kid go to college now.”

She got all in my face, her nostrils flaring and her eyes shimmering like stars. It was obvious what she wanted, but I had bad news for her.

“I don’t have it.”, I didn’t even get to touch that sheet before it disintegrated in front of me. My journey had literally been pointless.

“What are you talking about?”, before I knew it, the system master held a thin sheet of red paper in her hand. I looked at it and blinked several times, wondering how and when she got the paper.

‘How?’

“Ozvaloth sent both you and the paper over.”, she waved the paper in front of me while flashing a cocky grin at my face.
