Chapter 2 – The Second Star
The magical world dawned once more...
The beautiful green grass shimmered even brighter...
The pink and green sun shone upon Lina, who was still asleep with her pink necklace and her rank O sword... by her side.
Lina shifted, slowly opened her eyes, and smiled sweetly.
— Good morning... beautiful world... good morning, pink necklace... and rank O sword...
The sword glowed softly... as if answering her... and so did the pink necklace...
Suddenly, the pink and green panel appeared once again.
> [System of the 55 Stars: Daily Mission.]
Mission: Jump 10 times happily. Reward: Surprise Star.]
Lina's pink eyes widened, and she smiled.
— Jumping? I love jumping!
And so she began to jump on the green grass.
1... 2... 3... 4...
Lina laughed and smiled with each leap...
5... 6... 7... 8...
Her pink and green hair swayed beautifully...
9... and... 10!!!
> [Mission complete! Reward: Surprise Star being delivered...]
From the sky, a light-blue star slowly descended... shining... and merged into Lina's body, like a gentle embrace.
> [Blue Star: 2/55]

Sword Rank O → Rank B.]
Lina blinked several times, startled and thrilled.
— Woooow! Rank B sword?! I'm getting stronger!!!
She looked at the sword, now glowing in blue and pink, beautiful...
And smiled, placing her hand on it tenderly.
— Thank you... little sword... thank you, stars...
---
But... suddenly... the ground shook...
Out of nowhere... 3 cute slimes appeared, bouncing... with smiling faces.
Lina gasped in surprise...
— Slimes?! They're cute too... but... are they coming at me?
The slimes bounced toward her... trying to stick.
Lina raised her rank B sword, nervous...
> [Mission: Defeat the 3 cute slimes.]
Reward: 55 coins.]
Lina took a deep breath... and stepped back.
— O-okay... I'll try!
One of the slimes bounced at her.
Lina shut her eyes and swung her sword...
SHIIIN!
The sword gleamed in blue and pink... slicing the slime in two.
It turned into little stars... and vanished.
— Wow!!! I did it!!!
The other two slimes jumped together.
Lina let out a funny scream:
— Aaaaahhh!!!
And she swung the sword in desperation.
Both were defeated... dissolving into sparkling stars.
> [Mission complete. Reward: 55 coins received.]
Lina collapsed onto the grass, sweating and smiling.
— I... I really did it...!
She opened the panel:
> [Coins: 85]
Shop of the 55 Stars:]

Pink Tiara – 50 coins
Lina's pink eyes widened, enchanted.
— A pink tiara?! I want it!!!
> [Pink Tiara purchased.]
[Pink Tiara equipped.]
+5 Resistance / +5 Perception.]
A beautiful pink tiara appeared and settled perfectly on Lina's head.
She spun around on the grass, smiling happily.
— I look so pretty!!!
And she hugged her rank B sword lovingly.
— Thank you... system... thank you, stars...
Then she lay down again... drowsy... and before falling asleep, she whispered:
— I will... collect all 55 stars... I promise...
And she drifted off with a sweet smile, beneath the magical pink and green sky...
