Chapter 2125 Is This System… An Idiot?
Mag circled one round above the snowy plain. He hadn’t found any traces of the army of the dead yet, but he had seen many Roth Empire’s scouts coming and going into the ice plain continuously.
It was obvious that Andre had finally begun to treat it seriously when it concerned the survival of his empire.
Mag chose a few spots, and marked them on the map before returning to Rodu.
He wasn’t sure what were Cthulhu’s considerations right now, but it could be deemed good news now that the army of the dead showed no signs of coming southwards before the allied force could form and head north.
And two days later, all the races would hold a meeting at Chaos City to sign the peace treaty again and establish a new alliance to resist Cthulhu and the army of the dead.

“This girl Connie is surprisingly capable.” The next morning, Mag received the latest news from the orcs.
The Falk Tribe had taken over the Aug Tribe. The orc race that was fractured for many years was finally unified, and Chief Connie from the Falk Tribe was unanimously elected as the chieftain.
Mag was in a daze. That timid girl from back then had become the queen of the Twilight Forest in the blink of an eye.
Irina accepted the water that Mag gave to her, and downed it in a gulp. Still a little hazy due to the hangover, she asked Mag, “Did that woman get drunk last night too?”.
“Yes. She was a little drunk too.” Mag nodded.
He didn’t want to tell Irina the fact that Xi happily walked away after drinking two bottles of liquor and eating a bowl of red braised pork with two bowls of rice.
That would be too cruel.
As expected, Irina became much more energetic after hearing that. With a hint of smugness, she said, “Hah, I knew her alcohol tolerance was only so-so.”
“That lass Connie is already the queen of the Twilight Forest now.” Mag passed the letter to Irina with a smile.
“Something like that actually happened.” Irina took the letter with wonder. After skimming through it, she, too, smiled as she said, “That’s rather surprising. She actually killed Auster personally.”
“Her master is the Hairless Monk, after all. Killing Auster, who had lost an arm, is still quite reasonable.” Mag nodded.
Mag took out the map next, and talked with Irina about the few positions that he had chosen in the north.

“System, where’s my reward for finding the snail yesterday? Why aren’t you giving it to me? My snacks are almost finished.” Amy lay on the bed, and complained inwardly.
“Erm… Although Little Mistress found an edible snail yesterday, you have sought help from your parents, so the system judged the mission as incomplete…” the system answered carefully.
“Hmph! You didn’t say that I couldn’t seek help, and now you used it as an excuse to decline me. I’m not going to play with you anymore. You can play on your own from now on.” Amy got up from bed, and went downstairs in a huff.
“…” The system.
Life is so hard!
It is so demeaning…
“Little Mistress?
“Baby?
“Little Precious?
“Little Ancestor…”
The Life Experience System finally panicked after realizing that its host had blocked it.
It could very likely become the very first system that was abandoned by its host…
And it was because of a snack package reward?
I have no choice… Seems like I have to seek help from my seniors!

Amy went downstairs, ate three soup dumplings in a row, a bowl of congee with pork and century egg, and a bowl of sweet tofu pudding before she felt less angry.
“Little Amy, you found an edible snail yesterday, so what did the wishing well reward you with?” Mag teased Amy. The little one had surely redeemed the snack gift package again.
Amy got angry again as soon as Mag mentioned it. Putting her arms on her hips, she angrily said, “Hmph. That stupid wishing well. I’m not going to talk to it anymore. Idiot, idiot, idiot!”
Mag smilingly asked, “What happened? It didn’t give you a reward?”
“Anyway, I am not going to talk to it anymore. I’m going to fill up the well later,” Amy replied seriously.
“Sure. Father will help you fill it up later.” Mag nodded. It seemed like that system needed to be educated.
“Little Mistress… I was wrong. I know I was wrong already. Please talk to me…” The system’s humble voice rang in Amy’s mind. However, Amy wasn’t moved at all.
After breakfast, Mag found a shovel in the tool shed, and behaved as if he was really going to fill up the well with Amy.

On the System Forum.
Post for help: Yes… It’s me again. What should I do if my little mistress blocked me? Urgent!!!
P.S.: The little mistress and her father even want to fill me up! Help!!!
Replies were as follows.
Most Powerful Guiding System: Is this system… an idiot?
Star Student System: Systems are existences that belong to the information flow. We don’t exist physically, so how is your host going to fill you up? Perhaps we have a physical system lately?
Bootlicker System: Told you that you need to suck up to your host until you have everything you want!
God of Cookery Cultivation System: Embarrassing! Usually systems like me ignore the host. How can the system be threatened by the host?
Villain System: Moderator, can we mute the guy above? Otherwise, I will send my host over to kill its host and his entire family!
The God of Cookery Cultivation System replies to the Villain System: Come over then!
=”=4
Notice: The God of Cookery Cultivation System is muted for seven days due to posting antagonistic expressions…

Mag and Amy went to the backyard with a shovel each.
Irina and Annie stood at the door, and watched the two of them with befuddlement. They didn’t know how the well could anger the father-and-daughter duo.
“Rest in peace.” Amy shoveled up some soil with her little shovel, and solemnly spoke before pouring the soil down the well.
Then, an amazing scene appeared. Bags of snacks began to gush out of the well continuously.
“Hmm?”
Amy stopped her actions, and looked at the Mimi prawn snacks that fell next to her feet. Then, she stared at the gushing snacks with brightened eyes.
“This is?”
Irina and Annie watched this scene with shock.
“Did you prepare this?” Irina asked Mag.
“You can say that too,” Mag replied with a laugh. He had intended to help Amy keep her system a secret from others, Irina included.
“Wow. Is this the latest chips’ flavor? Green Lime? I don’t think I’ve tried this before.” Amy had already tossed her shovel aside. She grabbed a big bag of chips, and started eating them.
As for filling up the well, she forgot all about
it.
See, the little chowhound was so easily appeased.
“Little Ancestor, are you satisfied now?” The system’s voice rang in Amy’s mind again. “For the sake of so many snacks, I’ll forgive you temporarily.” Amy ate the chips happily, hugging a few more packets of chips in her arms.

“Then I really have to thank you…”

“Bro, I can only lend you that many. Remember to pay me back next month. Five points.”
“Thank you, Big Bro! We can be considered brothers now. Please take care of me in the future…”
“Nonsense! Who is your brother? I have always been bossy and dominant to my host. You have to learn from me and be a system with principles! “Alright…”
End of trade.
