1 Can't Believe I Died That Way!
White, very white, other than that there's no way Zhong Yue can describe the place she's in. Chair white, table white, book white, ceiling white, walls white, fan white and a strange floating orb also white. She can guess what happened to her.
"Host, can you hear me?" A childish voice sounded across the room.
I can hear you quite clearly, but must I believe so, Yue thought.
"Host, do you want to know how you died?" An intriguing tone came.
It's a system. I must have died in my sleep after all.
"Host?"
"Do tell." Although she can guess, she still wanted to know.
The white book flashed and floated from the table in front of her. Pages flipped and stopped and on it, a picture started moving. It was her on her bed. Black curly hair, cream pale skin, long black eyelashes, slender hands and legs curled up in a ball. A beauty, she is.
And then, she rolled... off the bed. Her head struck the floor and like that she died?!
Yue could tell that now her eyes must have enlarged quite shocked at the scene.
Can't believe I died that way!
"Host..."
"Say which system are you? What do I have to do? Is there's a beginner's pack? And any rewards at the end?" She didn't want to hear any comforting words about such an awkward incident. She wanted to know what would happen from now on. She had no regrets. Although she still wanted to do much more in her life.
"Host, I'm Hong Yue, #0078 Treasure Saving System. I will help you across the worlds in saving the treasures that should have protected the world in incoming crises but because of the protagonist of that world, they were used up or destroyed leading to the world's destruction afterwards."
Quite a protagonist they are, destroying the world instead of saving it.
"Since the host don't has any specialities that may help ahead, I will provide the host with 3 skills to choose from which you can learn and 1000 points as starting value."
Saying I don't have any specialities that may help is very rude.
"Host, you will be able to save yourself from death upon collecting enough life points at the end. And, host may shift between the real world and other previously visited worlds upon collecting their fragments."
So, I have a chance to resurrect and cross in-between the visited worlds. Not bad!
The pages again flipped and a page recording her information came up.

Dancing, too lazy to do.
Music don't want to.
Computer can do. It's something she like. After all, novels can be easily searched through it.
Yue slightly touched on 'Computer'. And three options came up. Hacking, Coding and Hardware Designing.
"Hong Yue, do you know which world I have to go?" She can choose her skills according to the upcoming world.
"Host, right now, you're eligible to choose a world from these three.
World 1: Blue Rose (Campus Romance)
World 2: Black Code (Gaming)
World 3: Pearl Ring (Showbiz)
Host, these all are at beginner levels and you won't need any help on these."
Campus Romance, while she's a fan of such but it's still tough to go against the protagonist in these as they will be supported by their lovers heavily. Showbiz absolutely can't be because she's not good at acting. Only gaming is left.
"Hong Yue, I will choose the second world."
"Host, what about skills?"
"Coding."
"Coding is further divided into three.
Coding (Beginner): Exceptional game play, Dialogues, Animations, Simple Apps and Programmes
Coding (Intermediate): Digital Graphics, Life-like Skills, Interactions
Coding (Advanced): Virtual Reality, Thoughts, speaking without typing, Creating Another World
Host will have to start from the Beginner to move on to Advanced. Host may confirm the commands."
"The Black Code and Coding (Beginner)."
"Command initiated." That was the last childish voice Yue heard before she was sent in a room alone with a manual for coding and PC for practicing.
It was tiring and stressing.
She spent a whole week before she was able to finish learning Coding at Beginner's stage. She was now adapted at creating a game with exceptional game play, dialogues and animations. And simple apps and programmes were too easy to make. At least, now she was able to recreate a Tomb Raider II from her skills. It turned to be very beneficial for her to bind with this system. After she goes back to her world, she will be exceptional in her studies and will be able to outshine others very well.
The white book flashed in front of her. It was now able to come before her whenever she thought of it. More convenient than Hong Yue.
Pages flashed and stopped at her details.

"Host, are you ready?" Hong Yue asked.
"Yes."
"Initiating transfer... 2%, 5%, 7%..." A monotonous voice sounded as Zhong Yue lost her consciousness.
