*Ding! *

  “YOU MOTHER FUC***!!!!!” Helena yelled angrily.

  *Ding! *

  “Huh…??? What do you mean? I did not see any requirements when I read the item’s information.”

  The system’s words confused Helena because, while reading the item’s information, she never saw any requirement she had to meet to equip it.

  *Ding! *

  After listening to the system’s words, Helena lowered her head and sighed. She felt disappointed because she was planning to farm EXP with the overpowered gear, but her plan came crashing down because the system gave her an item she cannot use.

  What is the use of having two systems when one has a bitching fairy attached to it and the other gives me items I cannot use? Helena complained in her mind.

  “System, what would happen if I equipped a higher-level item?”.

  After thinking for a moment, Helena asked the system what would happen if she had equipped the item without meeting the requirements.

  The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement.

  *Ding! *

  “So, I can still equip the items, but I just have to suffer a little. As the saying goes, ‘What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.”

  Helena thought suffering a little backlash for power was a reasonable price to pay. As long as it was not a life-threatening backlash, she could equip [Armor of Altair] when she is in a life-threatening situation to save her life.

  “So, what sort of backlash are we talking about? Will I be cursed or struck by lightning? Ha-ha.” Helena asked with a joking tone.

  *Ding! *

  Helena raised her head slowly, revealing a forced smile. “My lovely system, it would be so kind if you could tell me moving forward what items I can use and which ones I cannot, hmmm…”

  Helena did not hesitate to fake a smile as she flattered the system with kind words.

  *Ding! *

  Seeing as the system ignored her flattery, Helena’s smile turned into a frown. She always suspected that the system was smarter than it pretended to be. But now she realized her thoughts were wrong. The system was just a DICK.

  ------

  *Click! *

  Helena clicks on the dumbbells in the item box and two 30kg dumbbells materialized on the floor. She picked them up off the floor, expecting them to be heavy, but they felt light instead.

  “Huh…? Why do they feel so light? I can’t get any workout done with this.”

  The dumbbells felt light as she picked them up. She doubted that they weighed thirty kilograms because she had held a thirty-kilogram dumbbell before in her past life and they felt heavier, but then again, she is stronger than her previous self.

  *Ding! *

  “That’s what am talking about, free stats. I just have to exercise with these light dumbbells, and I can increase my stats without doing any of the system’s dumb missions.”

  Helena smiled happily as her strength and defense stats increased. Though the added stats of 0.1 were little.

  ************FEW MINUTES LATER**********

  *Ding! *

  “Argh… another mission,”

  Helena complained. Though she could ignore the mission, she was curious about what the mission was so. She dropped the dumbbells on the ground and checked the missions on the system panel, with one of her hands folded, and rubbed her chin with the other.

  Hmmm… let’s see… what the mission is about. The first option, perform 100 dumbbell floor presses… I only get 100 experience points and 5 stamina stats, definitely not picking that. The second option is two hundred dumbbell push-ups for 300 EXP, 10 stamina stats, and a passive skill called [Sword mastery] —

  “System: what is the [Sword mastery] skill?”
