Clumsy Beast, Keep Your Paws Off novel Chapter 214

Chapter 214: Chapter 214: Lan Lan vs. Her Overworked System

Su Qinglan’s eyes sparkled the instant she saw the reward list.

"White flour... toilet paper... rain boots... and a cub talent pill??"

Her lips stretched into a huge grin. This was amazing. This was beautiful. This was finally something useful!

For the first time in days, her System notification didn’t look like it was bullying her.

She hugged Hu Yan’s neck a little tighter out of pure joy.

Finally! A mission! A real mission!

The last main quest had taken forever. And the system missions were so rare that she sometimes wondered if her system was... sleeping? On vacation? Dead?

But just as she was thinking that...

DING.

"Host, don’t worry. Now that your newbie period is over, missions will appear more frequently."

Su Qinglan blinked.

"...Newbie period?" she whispered internally. "What newbie period? Why did no one tell me this?! I didn’t even get a beginner’s tutorial!"

The system responded with absolute calmness.

"Host, please work hard. More missions will come soon. More missions mean more rewards."

"...Wait... what newbie period...?!"

"Now Xuyu will be going offline... bye host," Xuyu said and became offline again.

He didn’t tell her that her missions were so few because of her ability. The stronger her ability is, the more missions she would get. So the time she had spent can actually be treated as a newbie period. He was not entirely wrong at all.

And she had to blame herself for finding out so late how to improve her ability. After all, in some things he could not interfere and could only give hints.

The connection was immediately cut.

Just like that. Su Qinglan’s eye twitched violently.

"Oi. Oi! You come for three seconds and just run away again! What are you even doing all day? Who gave you a job with such questionable work ethics?!"

Somewhere in the depths of her mind, Xuyu paused mid-task. He heard everything.

He stared into the void for a full two seconds.

"..."

But he still didn’t respond.

Because he really didn’t have time to argue with his host today. He had twenty-three system windows open, seven reports pending, and the mission-monitoring mechanism needed tuning again.

So he simply shut off all communication except the automatic mission tracker and reward dispenser.

Back in the real world, Su Qinglan let out a silent scream.

"Don’t tell me my System is busier than a corporate office worker?!"

Hu Yan, who heard none of this inner chaos, looked down at her worriedly.

"Lan Lan? Why is your face doing that?" He actually wanted to say why it was deforming in such a way... but he didn’t say it. After all, how could his cute Lan Lan make such strange faces? It must be his eyes that were malfunctioning.

Su Qinglan smiled stiffly. "Nothing. Nothing at all."

Rong Ye, running ahead, glanced back. "Did your leaf coat get wet?"

"No," she said flatly. "Only my soul," she murmured in a very tiny voice.

But despite wanting to strangle her system, she still couldn’t stop her excitement.

A new mission. A clear goal. And rewards that would actually help her... ohh my finally flour... she could eat many delicious things... la~

And toilet paper... just thinking about it made her cry. Finally, she didn’t have to wipe her butt with leaves. Her eyes almost welled up with tears of happiness.
