2: First Transfer

First Transfer

When Jiang Li declared his acceptance of the system's identity and acknowledged that he was now a Host, a person chosen by a Mighty Whoever to save crazy people, the system immediately initiated the transfer and tossed him into a whirlwind of time and space.1

His mind turned black, all his senses turned off as all he could perceive was darkness.

Fortunately, throughout the process, he felt no pain. When he came back to his senses, all he felt was a bit of dizziness, nothing more.

"Host, we're now in the first world."

Jiang Li heard the child-like voice and subconsciously opened his eyes. Or, actually, he never closed them, the correct term should be 'he regained his sense of sight'.

Now his retinas were being assaulted by various colors and shapes. It hurt a bit. His head was also aching and he wondered whether this was the late aftereffect of the transfer.

Only when the pain finally subsided did he remember that he had been confined for so long in an endlessly dark space. It was no wonder his eyes got hurt by the sudden waves of colors and lights.

Jiang Li blinked. He could now see clearly again, and in front of him was a noisy and seemingly annoying figure crying.

Okay, that was just his subjective opinion which was actually not very reliable.

Anyway, he looked away almost immediately. The system didn't warn him that when he woke up, a wailing woman dressed in fancy makeup and wigs would greet his poor eyes.

With closed eyes, he asked in his mind, "System?"

"I'm here, Host."

The young man was silent for a while.

The system didn't know what was running on his mind, but it got somewhat frightened as the man unintentionally let out suppressed noises in his mind. It was as though he was trying to stop laughing out of anger. And to be honest, the system didn't get how he made it possible!

Luckily, before the system turned crazy from fear, Jiang Li spoke up, the tone bland but forceful. "Explain now what you have to explain, or else...."

025 was silent as well for a while, wondering why he laughed eerily at the end of his statement. It was late to realize that its host was making threats. But thankfully, it still managed to do so and did begin to educate its host in panic.

"Ah, host! You're now in the first world, it's a modern one, similar to your original world, except it's before the apocalypse. You have taken over as a campus heartthrob of this world's story, and your job is to avoid letting the villainess end up the way she originally did. You have to resolve all the resentments of the original villainess' soul, ensuring that this world doesn't die out of the crazy villainess' self-destruction."

"I suppose what you mean is don't let her become a villainess."

"Ahm, actually, it's alright as long as you don't let her become crazy and die crazily like that. Villainesses, in a sense, are actually like female leads. Oh, I almost forgot, the world revolves around a few important people. The leads, the secondary leads and the villains. But like I said, villainesses are actually like female leads, to be precise, they're failures of female leads. But their importance and the allocated world energy to them are the same. What you actually have to do is prevent them from contaminating the world's energy allocated with the resentment they harbored after they went crazy. If ever that happens, the aftermath could damage or in a worst-case scenario, destroy a world!"

"...Do you know it all didn't make sense to me? Just like how I don't get why that woman is crying in front of me?"

"Actually, host, you'll later learn the reason once you inherit the original's memories. And I suggest, you take the memories first, and let me do a thorough explanation later when you're alone by yourself."

Jiang Li wished he could at least give a glare to the system. He thought it was so inconsiderate. How come it didn't realize that it should do so the moment he arrived?

Was it hard for an AI to realize that throwing someone without knowledge of the situation he would wake up into was like throwing a cannon fodder towards a random direction with no rhyme or reason?

"025, May I request something? Before I transmigrate or before I open my eyes the next time I transmigrate, I want every information related to the original implanted in my mind."

The system exclaimed with its imaginary mouth wide open. It just learned that it did quite mess up and immediately promised, "I'll make sure to do that next time. Sorry, host. For now, please relax and accept the memories."

Jiang Li followed its direction. He remained standing, half-leaning on the wall, his eyes close. Then his long-awaited information finally flooded in.

Just like what 025 mentioned, the world was like a parallel modern Earth, with the same advancement in technology, but different history and people.

The story took place in Jasper City.

The female lead was a rich second generation named Bai Qing, 21 years old, naturally beautiful, hardworking, and charming. As rumored, she was unlike most second-generation ladies who only knew what shopping and spending money were.

No. She was not a good for nothing, but instead a smart and capable person already helping her father uphold their fashion and clothing line.

The male lead was, of course, the richest man in the city, 27 years old CEO and Chairman of the Longfeng Group of Companies, Cheng Yijun. No more words were needed to describe how mighty and powerful this man was given that he became that wealthy and well-accomplished at such a young age.

The two met in a cliche party and the woman was unmistakably drugged by some spoiled brat who had designs to soil her.

But sorry for that dorky young man, his hard work went to the male lead.

Jiang Li's memories didn't say why the male lead suddenly rolled in the sheets with Bai Qing, but Jiang Li only assumed Cheng Yijun was a maniac for the sake of his brain's convenience. The guy seemed unlikeable after all.

Who cares if he's powerful and accomplished? After he forgot every promise he made with the other girl who helped him when he was in dire straits, when he even bedded another woman just because he wanted to appear helpful to a drugged girl, Jiang Li immediately crossed his name out of his dictionary.

It was now synonymous with the words 'bastard', 'scum', 'stupid', and 'brain-dead'. That was how a male lead suddenly turned out in his mind.
