Transmigrated With A Resolution System

Clicking on the inventory, he scrolled to the Disguise pill.

[Disguise pill available]

[Usage: 0]

[Time limit: Once a day]

Pulling out the pill, he looked at the blue pill in his hands and rolled it between his fingers. The blue liquid in the pill seemed to be a mixture of water, and another strange substance. He stared at it for a while, before deciding to swallow it.

Touching his face and body, he expected something to happen, but from the looks of things, it seemed to have no effect on him. He shook his head, disappointed.

[Disguise pill unavailable]

[Usage: Complete]

Getting up, he took a quick glimpse outside the window again.

'Mune.' He called.

[Master?] She bowed, hovering in the air, a few inches from the window sill.

Nix raised a brow at her current attitude, she sounded a little too formal for a person who usually wore an air of nonchalance.

Turning around, he leaned on the wall, staring at her for quite some time.

The tension in the air caused Mune to look at the ceiling awkwardly.

"Would you cut that out?" He snapped.

[Cut what out?] she asked.

He narrowed his eyes, and looked at her closely. He could swear he saw a faint smile on her lips.

"If you don't speak like you normally would, there isn't any need for your help," he replied.

Heaving out a sigh, she cleared her throat.

[I thought you were still mad at me, master] She replied.

He was silent for a moment, but then he let a small chuckle escape. "If I hold grudges for things like this, I'll never be able to achieve my goals." he deadpanned.

[I'm sorry for my previous attitude, I didn't mean to offend you.] she looked down at the floor.

"It's fine, it's all in the past." He laughed a bit.

"Now, let's talk about how we're going to escape. Or rather, how I'm going to escape this fortress." He looked at her again, and saw her nod.

[I see you've taken the pill] She stated with a slight smile.

He grinned at her. "I had no choice, attention should be the least of my problems," he replied.

Mune rolled her eyes at his subtle hints of self praise.

"Come to think of it, that's why I called for your help. Could you tell me why I didn't feel anything change? Wasn't my appearance meant to change?"

[Did you pick a character customisation?] She asked.

He shook his head, and walked back to the chair. "How do I do that?" He asked.

[All you need to do is visualize while you close your eyes and the pill will take care of the rest] She replied.

"How is it that you know, but I wasn't informed by the system?" He said with a raise of his brow.

[If it were that simple for it to explain everything to you, then what would be the purpose of my existence?] She narrowed her eyes at him.

"Fair point."

Going with her explanation, he closed his eyes while imagining a short messy blonde hair with bangs hanging below his eyes.

He felt something change. He reached up and touched his hair, a few strands of his blonde hair in his fingers.

Picking up a hand held mirror from the table, he looked at his reflection.

It was shorter, and it was also slightly messier than he had it normally. He looked at it, and smiled. He let out a sigh, and then stood up, pacing for quite some while, and brushed his hand through his hair.

"It really worked!'' He said to her, "I really should have figured that out." he told her.

She smiled at him. [It would be best if you change your facial outlook too. There is no way just your hair change would be enough to fool anyone that knows your face]

Thinking of an anime character was the best choice scenario at that point. He imagined himself with thin eyebrows as well as small brown eyes.

'Glasses? No, that would look terrible with this hair.' He shook off the thought immediately.

He felt his face change. He touched his face, and felt a slight pinch.

'The horror! Is this how doing a face alteration feels?!' He said to himself, feeling the pull on his face at the side and a slight pain on the side of his face. After some while, it stopped. It was just a slight change, but it was enough to feel like he had gone under a knife.

"How do I look?'' He asked, opening his eyes.

Mune cringed at the final result of his customisation. She contemplated how she could bring up her sentences without it being an outright insult. Instead she temporarily went with a wide grin to buy out time.

He looked up at her, his mood dampened at the knowledge of giving that face. "Is it really that bad?" He asked.

After her reaction, he dreaded checking himself in the mirror.

[But master, aren't you some sort of artist? Even your artwork had better facial expressions than... than... this. Why this face?] She blurted out even before she could filter out her words.

Her hands immediately latched over her mouth, but the words were already heard.

[Ha... ha... ha... Who said that?] She masked the awkward situation she had out herself in with light chuckles.

Nix was hurt by her words but saw the sense in what she had said. He had been thinking of customisations from a mixture of some anime characters, that he forgot he could just go with a generic character.

"Any suggestions on what looks wrong?" He questioned, closing his eyes.

[Maybe if you change the hair style and the eyebrows, it might look better.] she said.

"I'm not too fond of the hair style anyways, I was just testing out the customisation feature." He exaggerated.

Taking another redo of his hairstyle, he imagined a blonde hair styled with a neat part. His brows were also slightly thicker.

[That's much better!] Mune beamed with joy.

Confident due to her answer, he pulled up the mirror, staring at his reflection for a while. He smiled at his new look.

'I look like a reasonable character now!' He said to himself.

[Are you satisfied with the customisation?] She asked.

"Yes, this is fine." He replied.

Ding!

[Customization successful. You have 6 hours before deactivation.]
