Chapter 26: Do you want a loli or a lolita?
The system heard his question and responded to it by saying,
[Of Course I do Host. I have my own body, which I could probably project in a way that only you can see it, or I could get a custom body based on your personal preference. Do you want a loli or a lolita?]
Harry instantly rejected her shenanigans by saying, "I don't have any personal preferences! And anyway, that's not the problem here! Just project your own body! I asked because it would be easier to talk to a person with a body, rather than a voice in my mind."
[Oh! Okay Host. But according to your memories, you had an intense liking for-]
"SHUT UP!", he shouted at the top of his lungs into his mind.
[Ooh. Have I just touched a sensitive topic Host? Forgive me. Moving on, I'll project my body then. Give me a few seconds.]
Harry then heard no whatsoever sound from the system and began observing his surroundings. John and his two companions were in an intense discussion, completley ignoring him.
Harry felt slightly offended. According to one of the questions that the man asked, John must've told them that he had otherworldly and ancestorly powers.
Now that he proved that he really did have powers, shouldn't all three of them help him up and swear loyalty to him, and you know, give him the respect he deserves?
Before he could continue thinking and maybe even start rambling about the respect he deserved, a beautiful girl suddenly appeared in his line of sight.
Harry immediately guessed that it was the system.
She actually looked pretty good. She had light blue eyes, pitch black hair and her facial features were exquisite. She was lacking in the chest area though.
Harry smirked and barely stopped himself from laughing out loud.
The system felt proud when her Host was staring at her face with amazement.
But when he saw her chest and smirked, she felt as if she had received a heavy blow in her stomach.
She felt her face go as red as a tomato and her face and neck burned.
Harry had tears in his eyes from stopping his laughter, and after a few seconds of deep breathing, he finally suppressed his laughter.
He said to the girl, "So that's why you only gave two options, loli or lolita, so that you could cover this up as my personal preference!"
He stopped his laughter again with great difficulty. It would be extremely awkward and weird if he started laughing while John and the two were talking about serious matters.
The girl pouted with tears in her eyes. She said "Hmph!" And disappeared.
Harry wiped his tears away and rubbed his stomach which was aching from stopping his laughter.
He heard his System's mumbling in his head though, which his system seemed to make sure that her Host could hear.
The mumblings were all childish scoldings, like Idiot Host, or Stupid Host.
