"Susu!" I called out and immediately, the System appeared.
[ Yes Host! Susu is present! ]
"I need to purchase some medicine. He's bleeding too much!"
[ Opening the System Store… ]
A blue screen floated before my eyes, rows of items shining brightly. My eyes landed on Low-Grade Healing Pills – 50 gold coins.
"Fifty?!" I almost choked. "Do you think I'm rich, Susu? I only have 67 coins left!"
[ Host, if you don't buy it, he might die within the next hour. ]
I gritted my teeth. "Ugh, fine! Deduct it!"
[ Transaction complete. Remaining balance: 17 gold coins. ]
A small porcelain bottle appeared in my hand. My palms were sweating as I opened it and shook out one red pill. I leaned over the man, whose breathing was faint and weak.
"Hey," I muttered, half to myself. "You better not choke on this. If you die, then my 50 coins go to waste."
