"Huh? Why do I feel like I'm floating? And why can't I see myself?!" Jess looked down, sighing in relief when he noticed that his set of jewels was still on him and completely unscathed. But then he realised that he was floating. In space. And he started to freak out a bit.

---[Hello Host, my name is 'Diamonds are Love, Diamonds are Life' or 'DalDal' for short, and I am your personal system.]---

"Did you say DIAMONDS?" Hearing the word 'diamonds' amongst the system's words immediately made him forget the situation he was currently in and focus on those beautiful shiny jewels.

---[Yes Host, it is part of my name! And much like you, I just absolutely adore diamonds! I can't even begin to fathom why so many people do not spend all their efforts to get their grubby paws on those beautiful objects and why people who do have the capability to afford them don't! It's just uncanny!]---

"I agree! Diamonds are such a beautiful thing in life that everybody should admire and adore but people continue to pretend they aren't as amazing as they are and let their lives pass by without owning a true set of diamonds!"

---[That's very true! To be completely honest with you, I've been searching for a Host with as much as a love for diamonds as I have for quite some time! Do you understand how hard that is?]---

"Oh, you poor thing!" System and host seemed to have found the perfect common ground — diamonds!

---[I agree! But if it's okay to ask, is that set custom-made or store bought? It's so difficult to get a set with a tiara like that nowadays!]---

"It's custom-made to fit me and only me! Mr Walters was a darling and got it especially made for my twenty-first!"

Like two bored housewives, the two continued to gush over their shared obsession with everything diamonds.

It took a while for DalDal to realise he was actually on his first mission with his new host and they should probably start the world soon.... Whoops.

---[Oopsie Host, got a bit sidetracked! Anyways, I should probably explain what's happening. As you can probably tell, you died via a bullet to the head. And while you were in the soul's waiting room, I came across you and linked you to my system which brought you here! Since we are linked, it is both of our responsibilities to complete specific tasks and wishes of the world's inhabitants and to stabilise or destabilise the world! Of course, since I am a very special and unique system, our tasks can be quite different from other systems!]---

"Ooo, it's like those novels I've read! How cool! Is there rankings for worlds and the like or is it just randomised?" Had Jess not befriended the system, his reaction to the situation would have been very different — most likely ending up in some sort of violence. But since they both loved diamonds, he would let it slide and do this sh*t properly.

---[Oh right, the world levels! Like most of your novels say, world levels are ranked via letters! Starting from F, they go up to A before becoming S, SS, or SSS~ Only once in system history has someone getting up to a world of SSS ranking! And that was the High God's personally crafted system!]---

"I'm sure we'll reach those same heights one day!" The system felt uplifted by his host's words and felt extremely satisfied and pleased with his chosen host.

---[Soon enough, you will be waking up in your first world's body and I will send you the given information and mission/s when it is safe to do so. Have fun Host!]---

"Thanks, DalDal!"

And with those words said, Jess blacked out.
