They Hated Me in My First Life, But Now I Have the Love System

Chapter 29

Chapter 29: Face Off

The Love System spoke again, its voice firmer this time, as though trying to drill its point into Nnenna's stubborn mind.

"You need to live, Nnenna," she said, each word deliberate and heavy. "None of this will ever matter if you don't. These people will never love you if you're dead, but if you live, if you're patient, there's still a chance to get their love.

So enough. Let it go. Let them have their moment, and rise above it. You need to exercise patience."

The System's words hit like a hammer to her chest.

"You must learn to let people's bad behavior roll off your back. It's not easy, but it's a necessary skill. It's something my master would want you to learn, something I believe you need to embrace to succeed. This is the way forward."

She paused for a moment, as if giving her a chance to reflect.

"If you still choose to use more of your Good Points, I won't disobey you. It's your call. But know this, I've tried my best to warn you, and every choice comes with a cost."

The words resonated deeply, stirring something inside her. Nnenna took a shaky breath, her fingers tightening around the edge of her blanket as she battled the storm raging within her.

The System had never been this direct before, but its urgency was unmistakable.

"Patience," she whispered under her breath, the word feeling foreign but strangely grounding. "I can do this. I'll endure... for now."
