Quest

The next morning, when Stefan woke up, he found out that Li was sprawled all over him. He chuckled and gently helped Aouli to get into a comfortable position, got out of bed, and stood up lightly. He then walked towards the bathroom to freshen up.

After about fifteen minutes he came out of the bathroom, saw the sleeping Aouli, walked towards his bed, and gave a forehead kiss to Aouli.

Stefan decided to make a simple breakfast. While making breakfast, he heard Heli's cheerful voice again.

'Good Morning, Host!!'.

'Heli!', Stefan exclaimed in excitement and asked him, ''Did something happen to you Heli?''

'No Host. Why? What happened?', Heli asked in confusion.

''Yesterday after your time was up, I tried calling you, but there was no response from your side'', Stefan informed.

'Host, It is because, although we are sent to aid you on your future path, we still respect the client's privacy. So after ten o clock at night, we will go offline and only the auxiliary system will be present, in case, of unexpected situations'.

''I see....., So, will you be joining us for breakfast?'', he asked.

'No host. I only have a time limit of ten minutes, that is why I will only join you for the dinner'.

'By the way, Host. About the quest which you were given yesterday, there is an update', said Heli.

''Oh?, What is it?'', Stefan asked curiously.

'You have got a new quest, Host!, also now, there is a time limit for the first quest'.

Stefan told, 'First tell me about the time limit and then about the new quest'.

'For the first quest, the time limit is four days. The second quest is also a side quest. You can click with your consciousness on new updates'.

Stefan clicked on the new updates button, and immediately the quest information was available to him.

[Side Quest]

Rescue the princess of Elf Kingdom.

{The princess of the Elf Kingdom 'Princess Esha' went deep into the jungle in order to find a rare and precious herb, 'Gringera'. But this is all a setup. She is being followed by dangerous monsters and a high-level assassin. Even if she is not killed by the high-level monsters in three days, the assassin will assassinate her himself}.

TASK: The host needs to rescue Princess Esha within these three days, as soon as possible. Extra points will be rewarded, after the mission completion. Following are the rewards, which the host may choose after the mission completion:

- Update the space bracelet to Level-2

- Open the system mall [may consume 10–20 pts]

- Get a chance for spinning the lottery wheel

'The rewards are quite generous! It seems that Princess Esha clearly has a high status in her kingdom'

'It's a pity that I cannot choose all of them', Stefan sighed in disappointment.

Stefan asked while warming the milk for Li, 'Heli, Will I get points every time I complete a quest?'.

'Yes, host. Points are just like money. The more points you have, the more you are in an advantageous position. It is because, the value of points, when converted into money is, one point equals ten silver coins. But, remember host, you need to use your points wisely, as it is very helpful after the system mall is opened!'

'Okay! Thank you, Heli. If you have any requests, you can ask me about today's dinner.'

'Host, I want to eat a different flavor of ice cream today!', Heli asked, reminiscing about the ice cream.

''All right'', Stefan replied while walking towards the dining table and putting today's breakfast on it.

After putting everything on the table, he walked towards the bedroom, and, nearly, collided with a half-awake Aouli. He quickly stabilized himself and carried Li to the bathroom, he taught Li how to use the modern appliances.

Li was a quick learner. He nodded obediently and started following his brothers' instructions. After he washed up, Stefan took him to sit on the dining chair and started serving him. They quickly finished their breakfast, and after drinking a glass of milk, Li wanted to play with Stefan.

Stefan took Aouli to the bedroom and sat on the bed, face-to-face with Li. He introduced him to the magic power and its various levels. He told Heli to guide Li while he was trying to cultivate.

While guiding Li, Heli discovered that a cold power was present in Li's body. It was divided into two different parts. One part tried to attack Heli and the other part quietly followed the cultivating process.

Heli was shocked and told Stefan about his discoveries. Stefan was also dumbfounded after hearing it. But after giving this a thought, he understood, that maybe Li already knew how to cultivate. It was just that, although his mind couldn't remember many things, his body still remembered them.

'Perhaps, the other power is protecting Li's body, preventing and deterring any force from entering his body. It could be that Li has some special power or talent. And to protect his safety, his parents had to leave him for some time in a random town', Stefan told Heli about his guess.

'You are right, host. That power is much stronger than Aouli. Li couldn't possibly have that kind of power. The power is comparable to a level-five magician'.

'Hm.. Let's continue our cultivation. I need to become a level-two healer before heading for the side-quest'.

William was sitting dazed in the restaurant. Ethan was blabbering beside him about how William was so cruel, how he could not sleep the whole night properly due to his curiosity about Stefan.

William gave Ethan a cold glare, and Ethan wisely chose to keep his mouth shut. He knew that William was in a bad mood since he saw him.

Ethan actually did not know much about William. They were only colleagues. They met when he was heavily injured while fighting a beast, on a higher level than him. William saw his potential and bought him to the headquarters for training.

After five years of closed training, Ethan could finally leave the headquarters and go back to his hometown as an undercover agent of the organization.

There were many people like him, who came to this town to protect their loved ones after completing their training.

Actually, if he took part in the competition and won it, he would have to train for at least ten years before he could meet his family.

His train of thought was interrupted when William asked him an absurd question.

''Do you know what rfrigrator is?'', he couldn't pronounce the exact word, he spoke in the dream.

''Huh! What is that?'', Ethan asked back, confusingly.
