If she had to look down on herself, she could not blame others for hitting her when she was down.
If she had a chance to restart, she would definitely tell the System no. Reliving in the ancient era was too horrifying and she would rather die in battle.
She had not minded much of anything until she noticed a horrifying fact: The current era’s people used the most ancient methods of allowing girls to get pregnant and carry children to term!
Host V: “The technology is so backwards here that if this was placed before the federal government, it could be considered a waste of resources and you could get charged.”
Her viewers noticed something was off about their host and it took a while for them to realize what she was talking about.
Nao: “Eh, women getting pregnant and giving birth… This is normal? Why does it feel like the host is horrified by something new… But the pregnant lady who just walked past her really had a big belly. I feel tired for her.”
Haiku Shitan: “The ancient days did not have good medical technology. Childbirth was dangerous and any misstep could kill the mothers. It feels like every ancient women was an expert in abortion.”
Jiang Pengji’s channel had people of all ages and sorts––some were mothers, too.
Once the topic of childbirth and pregnancy was brought up, each mother had something to vent. While they were chatting, they suddenly realized Jiang Pengji’s horror and wondered how the future people had children.
Xinro Bingqing: “The host didn’t mention how her world had kids.”
Huoguo Mixian: “Eh—Is the future full of test tube babies?”
Chun Lie: “Test tube babies are plausible, but somehow it feels like it’s against the laws of nature and would incite some sort of civil rights and stuff?”
As Jiang Pengji talked about the childbirth of the ancient days, her viewers started guessing that from the era she was from, it was easy to have children––or that women had less stress during their pregnancy.
From Jiang Pengji’s point of view, allowing a woman to bear a child for months before giving birth went against the federal government’s manpower laws. If anyone dared do that in her world, they would definitely be charged and jailed.
Host V: “In my world, we would definitely not use such violent ways to have children. The efficiency is low, it wastes women manpower, and the number of children is bleak. Almost all women reject this inhumane way of having children.”
There were many wars in her era, and if they used the natural method of having children, women would spend most of their days giving birth as though they were a machine for churning out children. It was inhumane and against the law.
No matter how unhappy Jiang Pengji was, she had to admit that each era had their own technology, culture, and way of being shaped by the society. Childbirth took up time and effort, and that was why women in the current era were normally confined to their own rooms. They could not set their own birthing values, and in time, their standing in society would drop.
When she thought of that, she could not help but blame the System. “This is all your fault.”
It went against her rights!
“Do you know how many people are lining up to be reborn? And you still blame me?”
If she did not feel deeply grateful for its actions, it did not care. But to blame it?
“You need to understand something. Rebirth or time-travel won’t turn a pig into a human.” Jiang Pengji smiled coldly. “A smart and capable person can survive anywhere, and won’t need your help. But a failure will be a failure at everything, unless you have a means to raise their intelligence level before they time-traveled.”
She was a general of the Federal Forces and had control over a tenth of the army. Other than the supreme commander, no one could order her to do anything. The Seven Corps were ranked the third in power, as she was ambitious and a victor.
Even at her lowest point, death could still promote her. She had no doubts about her accomplishments in the history books. But the System suddenly stepped in and threw her into an ancient era where things were vastly different. She wanted to kill it.
“You’re unnecessary and an obstruction!”
The System felt wronged. It was the first time it had a host who disliked it and even called it an obstruction.
It decided to upgrade itself so that she would stop belittling it.
“Host, if you continue attacking me like that, I will throw a tantrum!” Its grievance could be heard through its robotic voice. “I was planning to wait a few more days, but I’ve decided. I will upgrade now.”
“Upgrade?”
She had just performed a soul fusion and increased her channel’s level, now the System wanted to upgrade itself?
Such a coincidence.
System: “A baby will eventually grow into an adult. As a System dedicated to serve you, I will have to grow with you so that you can enjoy more perks and clear quests with ease.”
Every host is different regardless of their identity, history, gender, personality, and even habits. A System was created to change accordingly and to not be rigid. It could not use the same method to serve all hosts.
To establish rapport between a host and the System, it had to upgrade itself to provide better services––especially now that Jiang Pengji kept belittling it.
If it did not upgrade and showed her how capable it was, then she was going to ignore its existence.
It decided to let Jiang Pengji understand how important it was. To have it by her side was a powerful ally.
“…Of course, some more functions will be unlocked with the upgrade and some settings will be changed based on your requirements… Other than that, there will be regular updates to ensure that the system continues to run smoothly. Downloading patches is a must.”
Jiang Pengji nodded her head inwardly. “I see. Then you should update and patch.”
Jiang Pengji’s style and personality made one feel like going against her after spending some time together.
“By the way, how long do you need to update?”
“The first time would not need much time, as there aren’t many resources to download. It should take about twelve hours. To ensure that I would not hold up your regular streaming, I would automatically start updating once you end your stream.”
“I can have peace for only twelve hours?” Jiang Pengji cocked a brow.
System: “…leave!”
It cried itself into a ball.
