After exchanging pleasantries, Song Yiran heard Xiao Zhong Er calling him.

Oh no, he’d forgotten to check in with Xiao Zhong Er. Had he worried that something had happened?

As he was about to respond, a sharp sword pressed against his throat.

Following the cold blade, Song Yiran’s heart sank.

The sword wielder was none other than his friend—and sister—Wang Hu.

Song Yiran carefully swallowed, afraid the blade would pierce his throat.

His eyes trembled as he looked into Wang Hu’s eyes, trying to persuade her to lower the sword.

“Sister, is there some kind of misunderstanding between us? Let’s talk it out—could you put the sword down first?”

Wang Hu ignored his words and asked instead, “Who was speaking to you just now?”

Song Yiran felt Wang Hu’s demeanor had shifted back to before.

Her gaze no longer looked at an old friend, but at a stranger.

“It was the system… my system was speaking to me,” Song Yiran said weakly.

Wang Hu pressed further, “What’s your system’s name? Which department is it affiliated with? What mission are you carrying out?”

“It’s called 555, from the History Department, and my mission is to raise cubs.”

Wang Hu lowered her sword and cautioned, “Song Yiran, don’t respond to your system yet.”

Then she added, “I’ll have my system check whether your system is legitimate.”

“Are there really illegitimate systems?” Song Yiran was confused.

What would an illegitimate system be like? Making mission users do unpaid labor?

Wang Hu sighed, her voice carrying a hint of weariness. “Song Yiran, do you know why I’ve been testing you?”

“Because you were worried someone might be impersonating me?”

Wang Hu sighed again. “This has happened many times before…”

“Many transmigrators have impersonated the original world’s relatives of Your Majesty,” Celeste added.

Song Yiran suddenly remembered Celeste was there. Did Celeste also know Wang Hu had transmigrated here?

Seeing his confusion, Wang Hu smiled and explained, “Don’t worry. Celeste is my confidante. She would never betray me.”

Celeste confirmed her loyalty, “I swear on my heart—I would never betray Your Majesty!”

Wang Hu then recounted her past troubles.

After she died, her soul wandered the world until a system offered her a contract.

She signed it, binding herself to the History Department’s system, named 554.

Her first mission was to become the ruler of a planet in the interstellar system.

She and 554 were transported to a planet, tasked with becoming its king.

The planet housed elves, elven magic, and magical plants.

To complete the mission, her body was transformed by 554 into an elf, as only elves could wield elven magic.

She and 554 leveled up, battled monsters, and overcame challenges, eventually defeating other royal candidates to claim the throne.

She renamed the planet Carentiel.

Originally, it was called Beta Planet.

She developed Carentiel’s tourism and economy, and the planet flourished.

Later, bored, she took on another mission—to raise cubs in the interstellar society.

She and 554 collected numerous beast-former cubs to raise, continuing to the present.

During her time in the interstellar world, she encountered many absurd situations.

Some other transmigrators also came to Carentiel, performing odd activities like selling overpriced soap, glass, and marinated food, or opening cultivation sects claiming to teach elves immortal arts.

Carentiel lacked spiritual energy—how could they practice immortality? Do elves even have spiritual roots?

Some opened hospitals using old Earth methods—blood tests, X-rays, expensive fees—ignoring interstellar medical pods and native elven healing arts.

Wang Hu initially found these actions baffling, but didn’t intervene, assuming they’d face losses soon enough.

Until someone began promoting socialism on Carentiel.

She had been tasked to rule, yet someone was interfering with her mission!

Suspicious, Wang Hu had 554 investigate their systems.

To her shock, all were illegitimate.

Further investigation revealed that those transmigrators didn’t even want to do these things—they were forced, their safety controlled by illegitimate systems.

Legitimate systems belonged to departments in the System World, contracting mission users voluntarily. Users could leave at any time, and failure did not result in punishment.

Unlike the official systems, those irregular systems didn’t originate from the System World.

They came from a dark organization. They had no emotions, viewing taskers merely as tools.

They were more like human traffickers, traveling between different worlds in search of suitable hosts.

Once they found a suitable host, they would forcibly bind the host into a contract, regardless of whether the host’s original body was alive.

In other words, those forcibly bound could very well still be alive in their original world.

These hosts were abducted to carry out tasks assigned by the systems themselves, and any rewards the hosts earned were entirely confiscated.

The systems controlled their hosts through punishment mechanisms—if the host didn’t comply, they would be electrocuted.

The systems specifically selected ordinary people without any special abilities, who could not escape.

Moreover, these hosts couldn’t seek help from anyone. The moment the system detected such thoughts, punishment would follow.

After Wang Hu uncovered this truth, she immediately instructed 554 to report these irregular systems to the System World.

The System World acted swiftly. All the reported irregular systems were imprisoned, and the people they had abducted were returned to their original worlds.

For those who had already died in their original worlds, the System World offered assistance, giving them a choice.

They could choose to return to their world and enter reincarnation, or sign a contract with a system in the System World and, after completing their tasks, return to their original world resurrected.

Ordinarily, when a person dies, their soul enters reincarnation and is reborn.

However, some special souls don’t enter reincarnation upon death; the system would form contracts with these unique souls.

Souls that could normally enter reincarnation wouldn’t be bound by a system—but this was an exceptional situation.

Although these people’s fates had nothing to do with the System World’s systems, they were still sympathetic to these unfortunate individuals, so special aid was provided.

Wang Hu originally thought the matter ended there—but something worse occurred.

The organization behind the irregular systems seemed deeply resentful of her reporting, and launched a revenge plan against her.

One day, her mother, Wang Aotian, appeared in Karen Empire.

Wang Hu had already forgotten how she felt at the time—probably joy…

But… that person was a fake.

The moment she spoke, Wang Hu knew immediately that this was not her mother, Wang Aotian.

When she discovered this truth, how did she feel? Should she hate? Should she be angry?

She didn’t know…

Because the person in front of her was just an ordinary person targeted by the system.

This individual was merely a normal person forcibly bound by the system, brought here, with their appearance altered and ordered to impersonate Wang Hu’s mother.

If they didn’t comply, they would be electrocuted.

Wang Hu did not take her anger out on this poor person; she directed her sword at the irregular systems.

The true culprits were the irregular systems and the dark organization behind them.

After that, war between Wang Hu and the dark organization behind the irregular systems erupted fully.

Karen Empire soon saw appearances by her aunt, older aunt, distant relatives, college classmates, research institute colleagues, and even elementary school classmates and teachers.

But all of them were fakes.

All were unfortunate people coerced by the irregular systems.

Wang Hu reported all these irregular systems, and the poor people finally gained their freedom.

Yet this was not the end—so long as the dark organization remained, any ordinary person could still be abducted by irregular systems.

The moment Song Yiran and his group entered Karen Empire, Wang Hu received news.

She had been secretly monitoring Song Yiran with her elves, observing all his words and actions along the way.

Wang Hu was 80% certain this was the Song Yiran she knew.

However… there remained a 20% uncertainty.

The last time she saw Song Yiran was in elementary school.

After that, she hadn’t seen him, and she couldn’t be sure if his personality or appearance had changed.

A person’s personality rarely changes—but what if it had?

What if this was also an imposter?

But what if it really was Song Yiran?

Ultimately, Wang Hu had Su’er bring Song Yiran into the palace first, to verify his identity.

If it was truly Song Yiran, all would be well.

If it was an imposter, she would report it as usual.

Habits are the hardest thing to change, so she tested Song Yiran using his favorite shrimp and fish cake noodles.

The three utensils on the table were also part of the test: if he picked up a fork, he was an imposter.

If he picked only chopsticks, he was still an imposter.

And if he picked only a spoon… really, who eats instant noodles with a spoon?

The results brought joy—Song Yiran’s habits remained unchanged.

Still, she stayed alert, only confirming his identity once he performed his familiar coquettish gesture.
