Arc 3.7: Ruler of the Night

Cecily was heading to the Lavande mansion that wasn't far from the castle with a large dog following not even a foot behind. If he had a tail, it'd be wagging. 

Oh wait, he did have a tail and it was wagging. 

His furry black ears were twitching as the wind gently blew past the two figures. 

Throughout their walk, neither of them said a word after their initial talk at the garden was over. Cecily was treating the wolf as air while Hugh was watching her back mirthfully. Figuring that Hugh might not have finished his business with her grandfather before rushing to the castle to complete his mission, she allowed him to follow her back albeit grudgingly. Yes, she was still bitter over losing those 1500 points. 

Thankfully, her main mission probably clashed with his since it wanted her to become the "Ruler of the Night," and Cecily would use that to get back at him - he better hope he completes enough side tasks and missions before their lives end because his soul would be obliterated otherwise by losing 10,000 points. 

But in the original timeline, Hugh was crowned the title as the sole king of the werewolves. Clearly, Cecily wasn't a werewolf and she had no plans to become one, either. Fortunately the hunters were the humans who lived in the night along with their nemeses. In the end, one shouldn't have to be a bloody wolf to rule the night. As a huntress who'd killed countless wolves even before she transmigrated into the world, Cecily more than qualified for the title. 

Some may be ridiculing her in their minds, "Cecily, aren't you being too overconfident?" but losing never even crossed her mind. Hugh would be a problematic obstacle but it wouldn't be impossible. As for Valentine, she had yet to meet him personally. Nevertheless, no matter what kind of opponent he turned out to be, with Hugh there to bear the brunt of his aggro Cecily wouldn't have much to worry about anyway. From the world information, Valentine certainly looked down upon every human - Cecily was no exception since he played her like a fiddle and just let her run wild afterwards. 

Let's just focus on the side shit ah. This world has too many people to kill. The main mission will come sooner or later after everyone's dead.

001 who just returned from surveilling Valentine tried his best to warn her, [...Host, that isn't a wise choice. Valentine is--]

'001, you're back. You were silent for, like, three entire chapters. Anyway, doesn't matter what Valentine chooses to do. In the end, his real enemy is Hugh. You got me?' Cecily continued walking with a deadpan expression pasted onto her face. 

(; ̄ー ̄川 Seriously, host? Why do you never take the main mission seriously?!?! Clearly, your 2 luck is so worrisome that it's awesome, but you never seem to learn. I bet something completely out of your imagination will happen and throw all of your plans out the window! Just don't blame me for not warning you! I tried my best! Hmph!

Then 001 thought about all of the things that he did to help his host in the current and previous worlds. He didn't take very long because he didn't do much at all. Of course, except in this world where he was used as a CCTV but the other two worlds were seriously not even worth the effort. This world was different. Even though Wen Ren gave his host the tyrannical sword but...ARGH WHATEVER. His host was a lost cause. She would have been the perfect host if it wasn't for that damnable luck ah! 

[Fine, host. But just to clarify, I tried.]  Then 001 promptly left her to continue "surveilling." Actually, since his host didn't care enough to even listen to the fruits of his efforts, the little system decided to just explore the world while tuning her out. He didn't have a physical body like Zero but as an almighty system, scanning the entire globe from the host's mind was a simple task.
