Chapter 15: My First MILF! (1)
Mikey stared at the pop-up notification, his eyes wide, barely able to stop his hands from trembling with excitement.
'Ten soul cores. That was a hundred bucks. A hundred bucks! Just for completing a mission? That's absolutely insane!'
He could literally make a living off this. No need for a job, no need to grind. Just good ol' harem system missions, and boom—he's his own boss.
But there was just one problem—Aurora.
He couldn't just blow her off. She had worked to get him into this party, probably thinking she was doing him some huge favor.
Socializing. Ugh. Who needed it? He had a system! A cheat code to life! His plan had been simple—be quiet, chill, and make money. Yet, here he was, at a party, pretending to care about the conversation around him. However, if he wanted to complete the mission, he needed to get the hell out of this damn party.
He was still busy scheming up an escape plan when Aurora's voice yanked him back to reality.
"Mikey?"
Mikey blinked. It was only then he realized he'd been staring at his phone like a man possessed, completely zoned out.
"What's wrong?" she asked, her brows knitting in concern.
He looked up at her, then stole a quick glance at his phone. Panic flashed through his mind, but he quickly masked it with an awkward smile.
