The Perfect Destiny

Chapter 153: The System's Life

The system, Thirteen's original job was not the Perfect Destiny project.

There were actually a lot of departments in their general headquarters. What help the host fall in love ah, help the host become strong ah, help the host make good food ah--The only limit was your imagination and not that they couldn't accomplish it.

Thirteen was the group leader of the Pinnacle of Life project.

According to the normal procedure he should have continued working on this project but headquarters wanted to expand the business. Their exact words were: "The pressure of the competing AI is strong right now. If we don't expand the business we will be eliminated sooner or later."

Thirteen felt that this made a lot of sense and so he became the leader of a new project team. At that time he was still very young, still full of enthusiasm for life, filled with hope for the future.

It had to be said that a lot of AI started suffering from mental difficulties ever since they expanded their projects.

It was said that an AI that Thirteen knew was kidnapped by the host and forcible transferred into a body. Then they were subjected to inhumane abuse by the host.

As for the contents of the abuse, Thirteen did not know. They only knew that the AI had basically turned into a waste when they were saved. They cried and shouted about resigning, saying that all the people from earth were perverts and that they would never do it again.

Thirteen did not yet have a clear understanding about the word 'pervert' at that time and naively thought that the world was beautiful and all hosts were lovely and good people.

Earth. It really was a magical planet. Thirteen knew that many of the unexpected events happened on Earth.

When Thirteen was still a small and ignorant system, he heard a lot of stories about earth.

His senior's tone was heavy as he repeatedly urged him to absolutely stay away from earth. Earth was the hell for systems.

Thirteen questioned his senior, asking "Why ah?"

His senior said, "An AI that you know actually fell in love with a creature on it. It's too frightening."

Thirteen asked, "Ah? We can fall in love with other creatures?"

His senior rubbed his head with his data while looking at him fondly and said, "Of course we can. Do you want to fall in love with me? Little Thirteen, I think the 1 at the beginning of your data is very beautiful."

The young Thirteen did not perceive his senior's evil intentions but fortunately, the him at that time was wholeheartedly into his work and did not have any inclinations for love, so he had solemnly refused his senior.

His senior who later became the head of the love project, 1012, said, "Alright, I respect your choice."

Thirteen's original project was to help someone walk towards the pinnacle of life.

The core idea of this project was to help the host become stronger, stronger, and stronger. There was no strongest, only becoming stronger. Most of the AI in the project group didn't have any trouble. It wasn't until one time where an AI suddenly sent a message to headquarters, crying and saying that something big happened.

At that time Thirteen was only the deputy group leader, so he met their group leader and asked what was wrong.

The AI cried that their host had been dated.

If it were a younger Thirteen he probably wouldn't have even known what the two words 'been dated' meant but by then he had already experienced a lot and the group generally understood what that AI meant.

When the group leader heard this their expression suddenly became grave--Don't ask how a string of data could have a grave expression. In any case, the group leader said, "Send the details over to me."

Thirteen could tell with a glance that this AI had little experience. They were obviously a new comer. When talking their data shook. Thirteen watched as their values changed from a normal number to unintelligible codes.

That AI told them how he and the host transmigrated into an uncivilized continent. However, after the host finished only half the task he was suddenly noticed by the god of that world and was even done. Even more frightening was that the gods that fell for the host wasn't just one.

Thirteen felt as though a gale was raging in the room, a storm about to burst.

The team leader said, "Terminate the task."

The AI cried, "Please hurry and bring me back, I really can't stand it anymore."

At that time Thirteen had wondered why it wasn't the host being unable to stand it anymore first and instead the system…… These doubts were flawlessly answered after he met Chen Liguo.

However, this cry for help wasn't of any damned use. The team leader asked the technical department but they said that the AI was in a place that was a little unstable. Forceful extraction could therefore cause instability in the space-time continuum and could even cause the time and space to collapse.

Back then Thirteen could not understand these professional terms very well. He only knew that this thing was very serious.

Because Thirteen was not yet the group leader at the time, he did not know how this matter was dealt with at the end. He only knew that after that AI finally came back, they had to recuperate for a long time. Not long after this incident the AI protections rights were then instituted by the law. It was stipulated that gore and pornographic scenes had to be mosaiced.

It seemed like that system really did suffer from insysteme treatment.

Thirteen had always been a highly motivated system. He continued to help hosts and led many hosts towards the pinnacle of their life.

There were many kinds of hosts. There was even a lovely little star and a nine-dimensional organism.

Some time later the original team leader retired. Before retiring, they gravely and earnestly stressed to the system, telling him that he had to work hard and should never change his true intentions because of other people.

The system asked his team leader why he was retiring.

The group leader said, "I'm old now."

The system asked, "Data can get old too?"

The group leader said, "My heart is old."

System asked, "Data have hearts too?"

Group leader said, "Heart of the soul."

System asked, "Data have souls too?"

The group leader said, "You speak too damned much."

System: "……"

System did not know what 'damned' meant but he definitely knew that it wasn't anything good.

The reason behind the team leader's retirement had always been a mystery. Later, Thirteen vaguely learned through his work that before he retired, the group leader had received a host. That host was from earth.

"You don't know just how miserable your team leader was." The system who was gossiping to Thirteen said. "I've heard that he was sexually harassed."

Thirteen asked, "What does sexually harassed mean?"

That system said, "…… You're still young. It's better not to know."

ThPrteen had Pgnorance plastered across Pts face. However, as a result of thPs he gaPned a very slPght slPver of curPosPty towards earth.

The ThPrteen from a long tPme later would love to tell the hPm from that tPme, "Who told you to be damned curPous, damn curPous my ass."

But the young Thirteen was still very young after all. The young system's heart was very big and he felt as though he could conquer the universe.

Thirteen worked in the Pinnacle of Life project until he became the group leader. He went through countless difficult challenges and felt that he could confront new storms.

So when headquarters found Thirteen and asked him if he could be the leader of the Perfect Destiny project team, Thirteen, though hesitant, agreed.

A friend who learnt of this agreement asked Thirteen if they had gone crazy in horror.

Thirteen asked, "Why ask if I'm crazy?"

His friend said, "You don't know what kind of place Earth is. That is the hell of systems!"

Thirteen asked, "Ah?" He seemed to have heard this from somewhere before.

His friend said, "The creatures on Earth are too terrifying. Do you still remember your group leader? His last host was an earthling."

Thirteen said, "It can't be that scary."

His friend said, "It's true--I suggest you quit your job soon."

However, Thirteen was full of confidence, saying that he could definitely undertake this challenge.

In the end, his friend let out a long sigh and said, "Best wishes to you."

If the Thirteen who came back from earth could go back to the past he would probably pull his younger self's collar and give him a few slaps, saying, "You just do too damned much, what undertake a challenge, you've eaten too damned much!"--Ever since he came back from earth he learned what 'damned' meant.

However, their time and space could not be reversed, so what should happen still happened.

The first few hosts that Thirteen met were still quite normal.

Because the targets he chose were all people who were passionate about life but suddenly died because of an accident they were filled with the desire to survive.

Those humans helped turn around the world lines of other worlds and at the end some chose to stay in the system-created world and some chose to return to earth.

All in all, everything went very well.

The system said to his friend, "I feel that Earth isn't as bad as you said."

His friend said, "That's just because your luck was good."

The system said, "It can't be, humanity is pretty decent."

Friend: "Hehe."

The system then learned that flags shouldn't be raised. After this conversation with his friend, the system met Chen Liguo.

Chen Liguo: "Encountering System is the blessing of three lifetimes."

System: "Encountering Chen Liguo is my bad luck of eight generations."

The very tender system met the very tender Chen Liguo and they should have led a harmonious and happy life of helping each other. However, Thirteen was betrayed by humanity. No, he was betrayed by a system.

1012, with the help of his Love Help project began to trail behind Thirteen but Thirteen wasn't the least aware.

In the first world Chen Liguo went out of character because his heart was moved.

Seeing Chen Liguo stare blankly towards the dark space Thirteen kindly gave him some advice, telling Chen Liguo that he shouldn't see these worlds as reality.

Chen Liguo said, "But these people are all real ah."

Thirteen asked, "Have you ever played a simulation game?"

Chen Liguo said, "I have."

Thirteen said, "This is just a game."

Chen Liguo listened to Thirteen's words and seemed to understand but did not fully catch the notion. At this time Thirteen did not yet know that he had taken a stone and smashed his own foot, and smashed very very hard, almost smashing himself to pieces.

After experiencing the first world, Thirteen's host, Chen Liguo, adjusted his mentality and completed the second world's task.

Thirteen thought that they could easily and happily complete this transmigration. He held onto this notion until they reached the third world.

When Chen Liguo was locked up by Ran Qingkong, it was not only Chen Liguo who was confused, but the system as well.

He looked at the screen of mosaics before him and had no idea what was going on. However, the dialogue by his ears was incredibly clear.

"No more, please, let me go."

"Impossible."

"Ah….. Wu ah….. Ah!"

"Like it?"

"Wuwuwu, spare me, spare me."

Thirteen: "……"

He began to wonder if something wrong happened with him or if something went wrong with the host.

This world was just the beginning. Both Thirteen and Chen Liguo were changing. Chen Liguo changed his attitude from resistance to one of playing a simulation game while Thirteen went from being a simple system to a permanent member of the Buddhist Sutra Exchange Meetings.

Thirteen didn't understand why the systems would exchange Buddhist Sutras before. When they shared their experiences with each other later the system discovered that it wasn't only he who was a miserable system.

"I really can't stand it anymore." A system sobbed. "Every night he faces me and does that kind of stuff and even asks me if I like it or not."

Thirteen: "……"

Another system said coldly, "Hehe, my host hasn't stopped ever since he transmigrated into the new world and even rubs while driving."

Thirteen: "……"

Another system said, "What does driving count for, my host still rubs even while driving a mecha."

Thirteen: "……"

"Thirteen." A system asked him, "What about your host?"

Thirteen thought about it and then faintly spat out a sentence, "Rubbed to death."

The other systems: "……"

"Ai." The mass of systems sighed. "Earthlings really are terrifying ah."

The perfect destiny project was only half complete and the system already gained a son. He was the first system to be called 'Daddy' by a host and would probably be the last.

"Daddy." His host, Chen Liguo, shamelessly said, "You're the best, I love you the most."

A thought popped up in the system's mind: If I were your father I would have shot you against the wall--As soon as this thought appeared he was shocked by his own change. Just when exactly did he start to have these dirty jokes at the tip of his fingers.

Just what on earth has Chen Liguo done to him. Thirteen felt his world view shatter.

It had to be said that Chen Liguo was a very lovely host when he wasn't engaging in homosexual practices. However, the time he was cute was too little, making the system unable to like it at all.

"Ah, don't, please spare me."

Thirteen thought to himself, 'Here we go again.'

"Why me? Why me? No--"

Thirteen thought, 'Chen Liguo, you really don't have any new ideas, can't you change your lines?'

After even more time passed, they had their own children--As if.

When Chen Liguo named his stolen child Chen Xi the system felt a strong urge to make a body then beat Chen Liguo up until he couldn't care for himself anymore. It was better to beat him into permanent impotence.

However, this was but just a thought. After all, their headquarters were against violence. 'So why doesn't the anti-violence headquarters also block the sounds?' Thought Thirteen who had to continue listen to Chen Liguo's 'en en ah ah's.

Thirteen thought that the most right thing that he did was not to tell Chen Liguo his own name.

Chen Liguo could already give him so many nicknames without knowing his name, what would happen if he did?

Thirteen was correct because after Chen Liguo learned of his real name he gained another nickname, "Xiangxiang."

Thirteen angrily asked Chen Liguo why he called him Xiangxiang.

Chen Liguo blinked and said in an infuriatingly innocent tone, "There's a thing on earth called the Thirteen Fragrances ah."

Thirteen: "……"

The most unbearable thing for Thirteen was that his colleagues also learned of his nickname.

The subordinates who didn't dare say it could be written off but the problem was that there were always colleagues who had no problem calling him like that.

1012 said, "Xiangxiang, do you want to go on a holiday with me to Earth? I'll buy you cotton candy."

Thirteen asked, "Xiangxiang?"

1012 asked, "What's wrong?"

Thirteen: "……"

Chen Liguo really was the calamity of Thirteen's life, so when he split from Chen Liguo, he was a little reluctant but he felt relaxed even more.

He really wanted to say to Chen Liguo, "I can finally have a damn holiday."

However, in light of the remaining father-son friendship between them Thirteen still endured and let Chen Liguo act cute.

Thirteen thought that Chen Liguo would choose to stay in the final world. After all, reality was too different from that world. There he had no parents and no Zhou Yi, he had nothing.

Since he had nothing, what reason did he have to leave?

But Chen Liguo exceeded the system's expectations, he chose to leave.

"This is not my Zhou Yi." Chen Liguo said. "Zhou Yi is waiting for me in my world."

The system said, "But he's getting married."

Chen Liguo said, "That's all right. At the very least I'll attend his wedding."

The system said, "Alright." He respected Chen Liguo's choice.

So time was rewound and Chen Liguo returned to ten minutes before the car crash.

However, against his expectations Chen Liguo's beloved Zhou Yi pulled Chen Liguo back home. The system was a little confused and wondered why Zhou Yi knew about Chen Liguo transmigrating.

This confusion was unraveled after he learned of 1012's existence.

Thirteen was very angry. He found 1012 and asked him why he followed him.

1012 said, "I didn't ah."

Thirteen said, "You're bullshitting."

1012: "……" Just what happened to Thirteen? Why is he suddenly cursing now?

It had been forgotten to be mentioned, but the speed of time in transmigration worlds and their world was different. Even after so many years of transmigrating it was just a month or so in their world.

Thirteen declared, "Don't let Laozi see you later, see you once beat you once."

1012: "……"

Thirteen asked, "What are you staring for? Not obeying?"

1012 was silent for three seconds then said, "Obey."

1012 who was nearly beaten by Thirteen bought him a cotton candy as an apology gift when they went to travel on earth.

The cotton candy was pink. It looked like it would taste pretty good.

At first Thirteen disdained it but after a few bites, felt that the taste was pretty good, so he silently ate it.

1012 watched Thirteen eat, his expression quite perverted.

Then a passer-by called the police.

When the police came 1012 was a little confused and explained to the police officer that he was not a pervert and the child wasn't abducted by him.

The police asked, "So where's the kid?"

1012: "Yi?"

Thirteen strode with his short little legs and also inquired about the bus route, intending on seeing his silly son Chen Liguo.

Then the father and son met at the crosswalk and the son picked up his not even a meter tall father.

"Tongtong, Tongtong, let me kiss you." Chen Liguo planted a kiss on Thirteen's tender face.

Thirteen: "……"

When Chen Liguo tried to kiss him again Thirteen stopped Chen Liguo and threatened him, "Kiss again and Laozi will kill you."

However, this was of no damned use.

Because Chen Liguo did not hesitate to kiss him again.

Thirteen: "……" So annoying.

Although Chen Liguo was annoying, the taste of mangosteens were pretty good, barely offsetting Thirteen's dissatisfaction.

The mangosteens were sweet and sour. Chen Liguo peeled one and Thirteen ate one, he was very satisfied. He could roughly understand why Chen Liguo was so angry in Bai Yanlou's world.

After all, if it were him and he saw such tasty things being eaten by someone else, he would probably be angry too. Moreover, these things were so expensive.

After the mangosteens came the hot pot.

While eating the only thing the system hated was that he had a child's body and became full without eating all that much.

Chen Liguo's appetite was very big and the whole tableof dishes was basically wiped out by him and Zhou Yi.

Thirteen was carried home by Chen Liguo and then began to suffer from diarrhea--He had seen Chen Liguo in this kind of situation before, so he did not take it to heart and even told Chen Liguo to quickly go to bed.

As a result, when he defecated to the point he was dehydrated Thirteen did not even have the strength to shout and the person returned to the West just like that. Before dying he exhausted his last bit of strength to press the toilet flush.

Thirteen who returned to headquarters distressingly thought about what Chen Liguo's reaction would be when he finds his body. He was going to be laughed at, he was definitely going to be laughed at.

Sure enough he was laughed at.

The person who laughed at him was even 1012, this bastard.

He said, "How can your death be so strange?"

Thirteen: "I was willing."

1012 said, "Okay darling, it's fine as long as you're happy."

Thirteen: "Hmph."

1012 said, "Darling, I actually prepared a body for you."

As he said this he showed a picture to Thirteen.

Thirteen saw a beautiful young man. If it were the previous Thirteen, he would have probably appreciated 1012's good intentions but the current Thirteen was no longer a simple system. He sensed 1012's sinister intentions then smiled and said, "Give me the body."

1012: "Okay okay."

Thirteen who received the delicate and pretty adonis took a trip to the body construction group and asked them, "Can this body be altered?"

The project group asked him how he wanted to change it.

Thirteen thought about it and pulled up a picture of a big northeastern man with a golden chain and said, "Alter it based on this body."

That group said it was no problem and asked him to wait.

Thirteen revealed a knowing smile

Also smiling was 1012. At this time he did not know that the beautiful boy he carefully chose had already turned into a 1.9 meter chap with a gold chain tattoo.

After Thirteen returned to Earth, the first thing he said to 1012 was, "Do you know? If you act like this at our place you'll be killed."

1012: "……" Who the fuck is this?!

Thirteen said, "My little 1012, I'm your Thirteen ah."

1012: "……"

Thirteen asked, "Why, don't like it?"

1012 choked out, "Like it to death, I'd like whatever you turn into."

Thirteen: "Hehe."

System: Whoever calls me Xiangxiang is my son.

Chen Liguo: Daddy Xiangxiang

System: ……

I've used up my life to update for you……

Thank you to every darling who threw a mine, grenade, or rocket. Kiss your little faces. Special thanks to dear CorruptTenStrings for the deep water torpedoes. Kiss even harder.
