Chapter 14 - Friend or Foe

Mark was busy shopping for new clothes in the system store.

On the other side, when Edythe returned home, she rushed to her room.

She wanted to search through her clothes to see if she could find something nice to wear for her date with Mark.

Unfortunately, after rummaging through everything, she didn't find any outfit to her liking.

When Alice saw this scene, she offered her help: "Do you want my help?"

Edythe saw Alice, her face lit up, and she said in an excited tone:

"Alice, let's go shopping, I need new clothes for my date!"

Alice wasn't surprised that Edythe had a date; they had talked about it in the car.

"All right, let's call Rosalie to come with us!" Alice said and went to call Rosalie.

Edythe looked around and felt nervous and, at the same time, excited for her date with Mark.

After that, Edythe, Alice, and Rosalie went shopping together.

Elsewhere.

In a dark alley, an Asian man appeared out of nowhere.

His name is Su Chen, another time traveler; he comes from a parallel reality.

Hours ago, he received a system that allows him to travel between worlds; however, the system level is very low, and he can only travel to low-level worlds.

The current world is the first one Su Chen travels to, and he looked around nervously.

He didn't want to boast before gaining strength—it would be shameful for a time traveler.

At that moment, the voice of his system echoed in his ears, and prompts appeared in his mind.

[DING! Dimensional traversal successful, and the current world is being scanned!]

[Scan complete!]

[The current world is an alternate reality of the Twilight universe.]

[Missions for this world are being generated, please wait...]

He discovered it was a Twilight world; as a time traveler, Su Chen had watched all the movies in the saga.

For some reason, he felt excited about this world.

And at that moment, another prompt appeared.

[DING! Missions have been generated. Does the host wish to view available missions? YES/NO.]

Su Chen chose: YES.

After making his choice, other prompts appeared for Su Chen.

[DING! Mission 01: Go to the city of Forks, settle in, and enroll at Forks High School.]

[Rewards: photographic memory, mastery of all languages (advanced), super soldier serum (perfect version), and 1000 world points.]

-

[DING! Mission 02: Make contact with central characters of this world and befriend them.]

[Rewards: martial arts skills (advanced), hacker skills (advanced), new system function (random), and 2000 world points.]

-

[DING! Mission 03: Create a company in this new world and let your roots begin to spread.]

[Rewards: investment skills (advanced), telekinesis (intermediate), unlocks a new world, and 5000 world points.]

Su Chen looked at the three missions in his mind and felt the rewards were very good.

He opened the system map to find out his current location and discovered he was in New York, United States.

"That saves me from such a long trip," Su Chen murmured.

After that, he created an identity in this world with the help of the system and left the dark alley before something bad happened.

After all, he was still an ordinary person.

After finding a direction, Su Chen left, and thus a new variable appeared in this world.

Whether he is a friend or foe, only time will tell.

...

The scene returns to Mark.

He finally finished buying everything he wanted.

Looking at his wardrobe full of new clothes, Mark felt very satisfied to have such a convenient system.

He can buy everything he wants without leaving home and has many options, each better than the last.

"Now my confidence is at 100%."

His old clothes were all out of fashion, oversized due to his previous body size; but now, he can wear clothes that better match his new body type.

He raised his charm to a new level—I believe Edythe will like his new look.

At night, Mark couldn't sleep and spent the whole night imagining his date with Edythe.

If it weren't for the improvement in his strength, which made Mark no longer need sleep to restore his energy, he would have dark circles under his eyes by now.

All thanks to the Chaos Eucharist Body, which is continuously strengthening all his aspects: body, mind, and spirit.

Mark sleeps only for the pleasure of sleeping.

When morning came, Mark had breakfast with his father and went to school as usual.

But this time, he was a little nervous and excited at the same time—excited to see Edythe's beautiful face.

After a long time, I'm back and I plan to update one or two chapters daily.

An important notice: the Avatar Korra fanfic novel has been deleted for rewriting. As for the relaunch date, I'm still not sure.

I have a lot of ideas in my head for writing fanfic romances — Marvel, Boruto, Avatar, Sheldon... so many ideas!

It's a shame my English sucks. It takes a long time to write a single chapter, fix grammar, and use AI to translate.

Many times, things don't come out the way I want, and I have to keep trying until the AI makes it sound less weird. It changes the sentences when I translate, and some of them lose their meaning.

Also, I rewrote chapter 13!

See you next time!...
