[Ding!]
[Unread notifications detected. Would you like to open them, Host?]
"Yes."
Llana answered without hesitation. It was the final reward from her last battle, the one she had deliberately ignored earlier.
Now she lay on her bed, resting above the covers, her gaze fixed on the ceiling. She had chosen not to open her rewards earlier to avoid distraction, forcing herself to wait until she got home.
It was nearly two in the morning.
After the program ended, all seventeen participants went out to eat together, joined by their families who had attended the big night, including JYP. Even the eliminated members were there.
Everyone was present.
Everyone except Minyoung.

[You have received rewards:
Fast Learner:
- An ability to rapidly absorb, understand, and retain both knowledge and physical skills, enabling accelerated comprehension and faster muscle memory development.]
"Wow… System, you're being really generous." Llana sat up instantly, her expression lighting up with genuine delight.
"Have I ever told you that I love you?"
[Yes. You have expressed your affection multiple times. However, I must refuse your love.]
Llana ignored that completely.
"How fast is this compared to others?"
[Host's learning ability is ten times faster than others.]
The reward might not be as overpowered as the "Instant Mastery" abilities she had read about in novels before, but this was already more than enough. It was already powerful.
Imagine being able to learn in one month what would normally take others a year.
Even if it were only twice as fast, Llana would still love it.
This system…
It felt like everything she had once desired in her past life was being given to her.
"Thank you, System!"
[You are welcome, Host.]
[Would you like to continue opening the other rewards?]
"Yes."
[Ding!]
[Task: Defend your position for the final challenge. COMPLETED]
[You have received rewards:
+1 To All Attributes ]
"Wait… one whole point? Not just a decimal?" Llana asked, her eyes widening in shock.
[Yes.]
[Ding!]
[Appearance attribute has reached 10. Host has attained peak attractiveness. You are now the prettiest person in the world.]
"A perfect appearance? Does that mean I won't get acne or any blemishes anymore?" Llana asked, intrigued. In fantasy worlds, people with perfect looks always had flawless skin, perfect symmetry, and otherworldly beauty that couldn't be touched by imperfections.
She unconsciously raised a hand and lightly touched her cheek. As a girl, of course, the idea of never having to deal with acne or wrinkles was appealing.
[Negative, Host. Conditions such as acne, wrinkles, and other skin irregularities are influenced by biological factors such as hormones and health. These are not automatically removed.]
"Aww… that's disappointing," she muttered.
"Wouldn't having a perfect appearance be dangerous for my well-being? Can you take back the point?" Llana asked, a hint of concern in her voice.
She had never liked the idea of perfection, especially not when it came to her appearance. It didn't sit right with her. It felt unnatural…inhuman.
[It may pose a potential threat to the host, as it could trigger unhealthy desires in others.]
[The system can take it back. Would you like to convert it into Virtual Coins?]
Llana sighed in relief. "Sure."
If its free from acne and wrinkles then she'll take them without a second thought but having a perfect appearance? That's just too heavy burden to carry. She would rather not have it. Her appearance was already high enough and dangerous enough. There was no need to make it perfect.
[Converting…]
[Host receives 1,000,000 Virtual Coins.]
"Money, money, money~" Llana hummed happily.

"System, how do I upgrade the level of Leader's Authority again?" Llana asked curiously. She had forgotten to ask before and had even forgotten that it could be upgraded.
[The host can upgrade the ability using Virtual Coins.
• Silver: 10,000,000 Virtual Coins
• Gold: 100,000,000 Virtual Coins
• Diamond: 1,000,000,000 Virtual Coins]
"Huh? That's way too expensive. The price increases a hundredfold with each upgrade?" Llana asked in disbelief.
[Leader's Authority is not an easy ability, host. As it reaches higher levels, your power to make others follow your commands will also grow stronger.]
"Are there no discounts?" Llana asked hopefully.
[Negative.]
