I Will Never Leave the House!

Chapter 3: You Really Don’t Know How to Chat

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After half an hour,

Annie knocked on the door again.

“Bruce, let’s go out and buy some groceries. Since you eat pizza everyday, I suspect that you don’t have any, right? Just peanut butter at most?”

With her hair completely down, Annie emitted a fruity scent.

Her long golden hair draped over her long white dress.

From Bruce’s point of view, it was as if she came right out of an anime.

‘She didn’t dress like that on purpose, right? After all, Annie knows that I like ACG,’ Bruce thought.

‘Hmm? Going Out?’ Bruce suddenly realized. 

Lunch? Sure. Bed? Sure. But leave the house?

‘No!’

Not to mention how little time there was to leave.

Plus, there would definitely be temptations along the way, especially if Annie was going with him. That would be equivalent to a date!

Restaurants, cinemas, supermarkets.

All a waste of time.

“How about we order pizza?”

“Or hamburgers?”

Bruce would eat anything as long as it meant that he did not have to go out.

After all, eating wasn’t the end goal.

So there’s no need to waste time on that.

“Do you think it’s healthy to eat food like those every day?”

“Let’s just go out and take a look around.”

Annie’s intentions were clear – she wanted to go out on a date with Bruce.

Then everything would go as the universe intended.

Logically speaking, Bruce had to go.

If he didn’t, Annie would surely think he was rejecting her.

But Bruce couldn’t go out!

The system’s rewards and S-rank rating were way more important.

Bruce thought about it with a firm look on his face.

“Annie, let’s go get together some groceries and cook up a meal.”

“You know, the type of dish you come up with is not the point. It’s being able to eat your delicious homecooked meal. That’s my highlight right there.”

“What do you think?” Bruce asked.

Annie’s face turned red upon hearing what Bruce said.

She lowered her head and kept silent.

No one knew what she was thinking.

But Annie accepted the remarks.

She wasn’t angry but rather shy.

“Okay, you wait here. I’ll go back to my place and get some ingredients.”

So Annie returned to her apartment once again.

A few minutes later, she returned to Bruce’s place with a bunch of cooking ingredients.

“Ding! Congratulations to the host for overcoming the F-rank house-leaving crisis,1 point rewarded!”

Good!

Very good!

Another crisis solved.

Bruce was proud of himself.

If this continues, he wouldn’t need to leave the house at all.

At that time, Annie had already gone to cook by herself as Bruce walked into the bedroom.

While scanning through the room, he found it exceptionally clean .

But —

The bed was a little small…

A single bed with only enough space for one. There’s no way it’d fit two people.

Moreover, Bruce couldn’t leave the house.

He couldn’t possibly call the furniture store for a delivery.

It would be too big of an action and his intentions would be too obvious.

Naturally, it was impossible.

However, Bruce did not panic. He would just redeem it in the mall.

A high-class double bed, perhaps a water bed, and a movie screen with cool functions. It was a must-have product for home and travel.

Especially for an otaku who would have to be housebound in the future — owning a comfortable bed was very important.

Looking at the large bed in front of him, Bruce nodded his head in satisfaction.

Continuously, Bruce sat down and smiled as he looked at Annie who was cooking.

It was still quite baffling to Bruce that Annie liked him.

If it wasn’t for the Eye of Truth, he probably wouldn’t have believed it at all.

“Are you hungry already? Don’t worry, I’m cooking right now. It’ll definitely be super duper yummy! Just you wait.”

Bruce looked at Annie’s face — full of confidence — and couldn’t help but laugh. “Since you’re so virtuous, you must have quite a handful of suitors at school, right?”

“Is that so?” Annie replied.

“You really don’t know how to chat,” Bruce said.

Annie was a little displeased when she heard that.

Wasn’t that something you would say to a conversation killer?

Bruce was slightly embarrassed for the awkwardness he caused.

“Even if there are many suitors, I don’t like them, so I won’t look for a partner in school.”

Annie was silent for a moment before she said that with a light snort.

Ah! True love.

Bruce had a feeling that this was true love. Even if it was an awkward question, she answered.

“Why?”

“Is it because you already have someone you like? Who Is It? Quick! Tell me.”

He planned to further tease Annie.

Especially now that Bruce had opened the Eye of Truth, he could see the truth behind some doors.

After being asked this question, Annie’s heart rate increased. Her cheeks were red as she said softly, “You clearly know… but you still ask…”

It was exciting yet nerve-racking, just as experiencing your first love.

“So… do you have a girlfriend?” Annie asked shyly.

“What do you think?” Bruce asked her back with a smile.

“Well, in the past, I saw you just staying at home after work, so I don’t think so.”

Annie continued to say shyly, “Then… When I don’t have a place to stay, will you take me in?”

“Of course!” Bruce agreed immediately.

No matter what she asked, Bruce would definitely agree.

This made him confirm once again that Annie really did have a crush on him.

‘Since that’s the case, I’ll take the offer.’

After seeing Bruce agree so quickly, Annie didn’t make a peep and continued to cook, but secretly, the favorability points had reached 98!

Meanwhile, Bruce couldn’t contain his excitement after knowing that. While cooking, he would glance at Annie from time to time. She seemed to enjoy their time together very much.

After quite some time, she finally finished cooking and brought the food to the table.

Looking at the feast, Bruce couldn’t help but give a huge thumbs up.

Correspondingly, he heard the system notification.

“Ding!”

Leveling up without doing anything? Awesome!

After leveling up, the experience and money gained per minute had become 2.

Not only that, his attribute growth had also increased to 0.2 per hour, which meant that he could increase his attributes by 4.8 per day. With a few more days, he could surpass the strongest human in the world.

Especially now, since he could feel each change his body is going through at every minute.

With only 2 hours of free time, Bruce decided that he would never leave the house if he could.
