Chapter 7 - System Mission

The two continue chatting and without them noticing 15 minutes already passed.

They only noticed it when the orange glow of the setting sun shone on their table.

Nathan looked at his phone and saw that quite a bit of time had already passed and he needed to go home to cook dinner.

"It's already late," he chuckled, "I need to go home now. It was nice seeing you again after a few years."

"Yes, it was also nice seeing you again,"

"Well, I'll be going first." Said Nathan before standing up from his seat and headed to the exit,

But before he leave, turned around again to look at Irish and said,

"We should get some coffee next time, my treat,"

After saying his piece, he hurriedly left the restaurant.

Behind him, Irish have a stunned look on her face and it took a minute for her to come back to normal.

This time her cheeks have a beautiful pinkish glow to it as she hung her head low.

There is also a bright smile on her lips while her eyes shone brightly.

Then she muttered, "Did he just ask me for a date? No no no, I'm probably just overthinking it"

Even though she reprimands herself, deep inside, she is hopefully thinking that Nathan meant to invite her to a date.

…

Nathan arrives home after riding a jeepney.

He entered the house and arranged the things he bought to their rightful place.

It's already 6PM when he finished and he knows that he should prepare dinner already as Natalie is probably on the way home as of now.

Nathan did not bother to make an extravagant dinner and only cooked shrimp sinigang and like always, rice.

Just exactly after he finished cooking and was arranging the food on the table, Natalie came from the outside looking very tired.

"Welcome home!" greet Nathan, "Go wash yourself and we'll go eat."

"Okay." Replied Natalie, it is apparent in her voice that she's low on energy.

Natalie dragged her tired body to the bathroom, but she first peeked at the food on the table and a glimmer shone on her eyes before she rushed herself to the bathroom.

5 minutes later, Natalie came out of the bathroom then immediately went to sit down on the table.

The food is placed on the table and it looks so appetizing that Natalie's stomach starts rumbling.

*Growl~*

Natalie did not feel shy or anything since it's just her and her brother in here anyway.

She stares at the food with a drool almost coming out of her mouth.

Nathan smiles when he sees that.

He tapped her head and said,

"C'mon, let's start eating."

Then the both of them started ravaging the food on the table with relish.

In just a few minutes, the food on the table is gone.

The two of them lay down on their seats as they pat their bulging stomach.

"That was good food!" Said Natalie with her eyes closed.

"It is indeed good!"

They let out a sigh of satisfaction as they rest theirselves.

Nathan turn his head to look at Natalie, then he said,

"You go back to your room now and take a rest. You look so tired. I'll wash the dishes tonight."

Nathan saw that Natalie seems so tired and looks like she will fall asleep anytime now that's why he suggested for her to take a rest already.

Natalie thought about it for a bit before nodding her head, agreeing to Nathan.

She stood up and went to her room, leaving Nathan alone at the table.

Nathan continued comfortably lying down on his seat for a few more seconds.

Then inside his mind he called out,

'System!'

The transparent interface appeared in front of him again, but as he looked at it he suddenly raised his right eyebrow.

'Hmm?'

[Host: Nathaniel Fernandez

Level: LV1+

Profit per Tap: 1 Pesos

Experience: 3,382/1,000

Shop: Locked]

On the system, there is a plus sign beside his level while on the experience, it is already above the amount required.

"Does it not raise my level automatically?"

Then he looked at the number of experience points he have,

"3,382 huh… that's the exact amount of money I spent earlier. Grocery, Transportation fee, and the food at Jollibee." He calculated the money he spent earlier and knew that it does align with the experience.

"So does that mean, every 1 peso I spend, I gain 1 exp? It's easy to gain experience then!"

After finishing with that, he immediately decided to raise his level.

"Since there's nothing the experience can be used for now besides the level, I'll just immediately raise it."

Tapping on the plus sign beside the level, Nathan saw that it changed from LV1 to LV2, along with it, other things also changed in the system panel.

[Host: Nathaniel Fernandez

Level: LV2+

Profit per Tap: 2 Pesos

Experience: 2,382/2,000

Shop: Locked

Mission: Unlocked]

Nathan saw that the profit he gets doubled as well as the needed amount of experience for upgrading to the next level.

He also did not miss the newly added Mission section.

Since the mission immediately caught his attention, he tapped it and the interface changed.

[Mission:

Accumulate a total of ₱10,000 with the tap app.

Reward: Beauty Pill

Spend a total of ₱10,000.

Reward: Body Enhancing Pill]

In the new panel, he saw that it shows missions that he has and is in progress.

There, he saw two missions which he immediately judged as easy to finish.

But then he saw the rewards and his eyes started glowing!

"A pill… is this like those pills on the webnovels that I read in the past!?"

Just thinking about those pills makes his heart start racing.

He looked at the mission and said, "I will finish this mission today!"

Nathan stood up and immediately wants to head out and spend some money.

Shopping it is, let's go!
