Chapter 17 Holiday Date
Chapter 17 Holiday Date
Today is my day off. I slept in my quiet dorm room until I naturally woke up. I checked and it was only a little past 8 o'clock. What's wrong with my biological clock?
Didn't I wake up at 11 or 12 o'clock in my previous life?
Reluctantly, I got up. I'm not usually one to stay in bed, except when I'm not fully awake. But I'm wide awake now.
I tidied myself up and fed Mingyue some food; I had an appointment with someone today.
I headed straight to the kitchen as soon as I left the lounge. I needed to eat first; only with a full stomach would I have the energy to do tasks and flirt with handsome guys!
After a routine breakfast, the house-elf also delivers Severus's daily loving breakfast.
He pretended to take books out of his portable bag and walked towards the library.
Great! Today's target, Cedric Diggory, is sitting at the table by the window reading a book.
A ray of sunlight shone through the window, enveloping Cedric.
Oh wow~ What a little sun, it's so cute~
Touch your nose to check for a nosebleed. Good, you're not experiencing any inflammation.
I quietly sat down next to him and opened my textbook to look at it. Luckily, I was prepared and had borrowed a few textbooks about Transformation from the library.
Actually, Cedric Diggory had a feeling when Ayers walked in. He remembered that he had arranged to discuss Transformation with this junior today, but he didn't expect that the junior would just glance at him and then quietly sit down to read.
"Senior Cedric Diggory, may I have the honor of discussing Transfiguration with you?" I know we can't talk loudly in the library, but I have a quest to complete~ I'll write this by hand~
“Of course.” How could Cedric Diggory refuse a studious junior?
We whispered to each other and scribbled in our respective notebooks.
[Jin: Ding—Target Cedric Diggory,]
The discussion with him about his experience with Transfiguration is now complete.
Rewards: 100 Bond Points, 100 Experience Points, 10 Favorability Points, 1 Luck Point.
It seems like all the people I'm trying to woo are academic geniuses; I can't even communicate with them if I don't read more books.
We chatted until we finished lunch together before parting ways and going back to our respective dorm rooms.
(Jin, I want to ask if your system offers any event tasks, like holiday events or other unique activities, otherwise it's really boring.)
[Jin: Since my host has such a request, I, Jin, will certainly fulfill it in order to serve you well.]
[Jin: Ding—Today is a holiday date day]
Event time: 12 noon to 17 pm
Please find a target to pursue and complete the following tasks:
1. Hold hands with one of the people you're trying to woo.
2. Put your arm around the waist of one of the targets.
3. Kiss one of your targets on the cheek.
Rewards for completing action guides
Bond value 100, Experience value 100, Affection value 10, Luck value 1
That would be great! It would really pique my interest.
(Jin, can I choose different people to do these tasks? Are the rewards for each person individually?)
[Jin: Since this is the first time we've held such an event, we can reward everyone, but you have to do each action with a different target.]
(Great, that's perfect~ My little darlings~ I'm here)
Let's think about who should do these three actions first. Severus can be eliminated first, because I haven't grown tall enough yet to do any intimate actions. Besides, I still have a "wall slam" mission with Severus that I haven't completed yet~
There are still 5 left. How about we make it random? That would be more exciting. We'll just grab whoever we see first to do the mission. It's all because of chance!
Put the books away in your backpack and start the mission!
As I walked up the moving staircase, oh ho! I ran into Oliver Wood. Judging from his attire, he seemed to be heading to the Quidditch stadium.
"Senior Oliver Wood, I need your help." Someone rushed forward and blocked Oliver Wood's path.
"Oh, it's you, junior Ayers. Is there anything I can help you with?" Oliver Wood immediately slammed on the brakes.
Great~ Neither of us could stop in time, and we ended up hugging. I instinctively wrapped my arm around his waist.
Wow~ What a tiny waist~ Nice~
[Jin: Ding—The hug around Oliver Wood's waist is complete.]
Rewards: 100 Bond Points, 100 Experience Points, 10 Favorability Points, 1 Luck Point.
"Thank you, senior. You've already helped me." She turned to the side, released Oliver Wood's waist, jumped away, and ran off after saying goodbye.
"This~" Oliver Wood blushed a little from the surprise attack, and touched his waist, where he could still feel the warmth of being hugged.
Running too fast, he didn't notice the corner and bumped into Cedric Diggory again. This time he reacted quickly, grabbing him with one hand to prevent him from falling, but the posture was a bit ambiguous.
Holding him with one hand and wrapping her other arm around his waist, this pose is something even novels wouldn't dare to depict—it's the perfect meeting of a princess and prince!
[Jin: Ding—A hand to Cedric Diggory has been made.]
Rewards: 100 Bond Points, 100 Experience Points, 10 Favorability Points, 1 Luck Point.
“Sorry, senior, it seems like every time we meet, it’s like we bump into each other at a corner (love).” I let go of Cedric Diggory’s hand only after he had recovered and stood up properly.
“It’s okay, you didn’t do it on purpose, did you?” Cedric Diggory’s smile was genuinely gentle.
But I can't get too caught up in the gentle senior, can I? I still have a task to finish!
"Well, senior, I have something to do, let's talk next time~" I'm off now, hoping for another chance encounter~
I was running too fast to notice that there was something unreadable in the smile of my senior, Cedric Diggory, behind me.
"Oh ho~ Ayers, you're here." Before I'd gone far, Fred clung to me.
“Come on, Ayers, we’ve found a secret passage. Let’s go on an adventure.” George was also hanging on the other side.
Wow, these two are so heavy! Have they gained a little weight? I feel like I'm going to be flattened by them.
Fred fumbled around next to a sculpture and pressed something, and the sculpture jumped aside, and the two of them pulled me into the secret passage.
As we entered the secret passage, torches lit up the walls, and each place we passed was illuminated by torches.
"We're only first graders and we're already on an adventure? Aren't you two afraid something might happen?" Can I say these two are too reckless? Or just too clueless? Are they really that brave?
Are all Gryffindors like this, taking risks without any preparation, even ten lives wouldn't be enough for them to live like this?
It feels like I've even insulted myself in the process, doesn't it?
Because he was too distracted, he missed a step and fell towards Fred in front of him.
[Jin: Ding—A kiss on Fred Weasley's cheek has been completed.]
Rewards: 100 Bond Points, 100 Experience Points, 10 Favorability Points, 1 Luck Point.
"Would you believe me if I said it was an accident?" I stared intently at Fred, who was pinned down by me, watching his eyes widen in surprise.
Tsk~ I feel a little unsatisfied with just a kiss on the cheek. Looking at those rosy lips, they're so cute!
Fred was completely bewildered. Had Ayers just made a suggestive move on him? Looking at Ayers' eyes now, they seemed a little dangerous.
"Are you two alright?" George, who was at the back, didn't notice anything in the darkness, but simply helped us up, one in each arm.
"Ahem~ It seems our adventure is coming to an end. This secret passage is blocked." It's not time yet; I can't provoke him. I looked ahead and changed the subject.
"Then let's go back." Fred also came to his senses, his face slightly flushed.
This time I was walking at the very back, staring intently at the twins walking ahead. I didn't even realize that my pupils were growing brighter and brighter in this place, like the light emitted by a beast.
So the three of us walked back to where we started and then went back to our respective college lounges.
[Jin: Ding—Today is a holiday date day]
The event has ended.
Congratulations, host, for completing the task!
The rewards have all been distributed.
