I am a Second Female Lead novel Chapter 118

***************** Thank you ILoveBluu25 for editing**********************

"Welcome back host! I inevitably have a piece of bad news for you. This time you have to go to the world of punishment, and I made it that this will be your ultimate mission. Do take this punishment world seriously host! If you can't outlive, your soul will vanish. My boss and I cannot do anything if that will awful happen. Host, do your best!" The human-robotic voice announced.

"Huh? Wait! Why would I go to the punishment world? I did complete my mission, and what do you mean vanished?" Sheri asked in confusion.

"No host, you didn't. One wish of Ah Mi is; for you to have no connection to the people involved with the female lead but you married someone who is directly connected with the female lead. I wanted to inform you, but the rules restricted me. If I get myself involved. It might inflict damage to your mission world." The human-robotic system carefully explained.

"This is outrageous!" Sheri tried to reminisce about what they had spoken with the old system. No punishment was mentioned at that time. The sole thing the system reminded was that if she couldn't accomplish the mission, her days of staying in her world will be cut off.

"I never heard of any punishment from the old system."

"Host! The old system you have was one of the most corrupt systems. That is the reason why our boss wanted to snatch you as soon as possible. If they needed you then they will keep you if not, you will vanish just like that. The time you were seized, they made sure to embed their program to you. Even I, cannot alter what they have done. You and your own world will be affected once I execute a step to alter something. Whatever you do. It will still be based on what they require to happen." The human-robotic voice said.

" No wonder why the system seems like a narcissistic type of program. In that case, what should I be expecting in the punishment world?" Sheri felt aggrieved but what can she do. There is only one way and that is to accept and try to perceive how things will work out.

"You will know soon. Don't die in this world. Desperately try to survive."

"Is that how severe the punishment world is?"

"Yes, host! Take it, very seriously, if you want to go home. One more thing host, all the knowledge you have gained from the other missions will be taken away from you but the personal knowledge you gain in your own world will retain. This is the ultimate mission and at the same time your punishment. I did my best to help to retain some of the knowledge you gain in the other mission world. But host, don't expect too much since I cannot aid you further with anything.

I am sorry. This is the sole thing I can do for you. The old system did make sure no one can touch the program."

Sheri was in wonder. She wanted to go back to her own world, but she never knew the old system was very tricky.

"What will happen to my body in my own world?" Sheri is still worried.

"Don't worry host, your time in your world is stagnant. I just hope you will survive this punishment world. Prepare yourself, host. I will transfer you now to the world of punishment."

"Alright!" Sheri uttered as she closed her eyes.

The moment she opened her eyes, darkness met her eyes. She couldn't see anything and felt both of her hands were tied on her back. Her mouth was taped and her whole head was covered with a sack clothed. She has the gut feeling this scene seems like a déjà vu. It was familiar to her.

She tried twisting her hand to loosen the grip of the tie but couldn't.

"S***, what is this? Am I being kidnapped?"

She realized she was currently inside a car. The car slowed down then she overheard the voices of two men.

"Hey, you want to eat something first?" A masculine voice spoke.

"We better go right now. The boss is waiting for us". Another masculine voice answered back.

"The boss is not yet there. She is just a harmless lady. She cannot run."

"Mmm!". Sheri made a sound. She was shocked and desperate to shout. She was indeed familiar with this situation.

"D**n you, system!" She cursed in her head.

"Sorry miss, we are just doing our job." The man looked at the bound woman at the back of the car.

"s***! d**m this is not good." She heard what the man said, but she can't help cursing in her head.

"We don't know what the boss wants with her, but I bet it's not good. We better eat first before we bring her in. Besides, the mansion has no food." The man tried convincing the other man.

"Alright." The man retorted back and went out to get some takeaway. Leaving Sheri in the car.

Hearing the door being closed and locked, she desperately moved her hand to her front and quickly removed the sackcloth covering her head.

"ahh!" She cried as she removed the tape plastered on her mouth as some of her hair was pulled and her skin has a slight bruise from the tape.

She immediately searched for a sharp object in the car. She saw a pen and tried to use it to loosen the roped binding her hand. It was of no use. The way they tied her hands was uneasy. Swiftly thinking of another way, she went to the front seat and pressed the unlock button of the car.

She carefully jumped, closed the door silently and went to the next car. She saw that the place they are in was in a parking area of a restaurant. Good thing at that moment, there were so many cars parked mostly owned by travelers stopping by for a meal or some drinks.

She discreetly crawled to the following car and tried to open the door but was locked. She tried opening the door of one car to another but was unsuccessful.

"S***t!" Sheri cursed as she saw her kidnapper closing in their car. How did she know? They dress in suits with a piece of earplug on their ear. She ran to a ranger car and hid under it. She was glad she was wearing her skinny jeans. It was much easy to move and crouch under the car though her shoes were left inside the car of her kidnappers.

"F*** she's gone!" She heard an angry voice from one of them.

She knew the risk of calling and asking for help. It would be helpless since the man behind her kidnapping had a wide range of influence.

" I just told you! We should have just bought her in. We better look for her or else our head will be on the line if we can't find her." The man was frustrated.

"You go to that side, and I will go to the other side. She is just closed by and cannot be far away." The man ordered and both of them went separate ways to search.

"Check every car!"

Sheri, who was hidden, was already sweating. She heard a fast approaching footstep in her direction and also heard some footsteps from people coming out of the restaurant. She was looking at which direction they were going. Her eye spotted the shoe of one of her kidnappers on one side.

On the other side, she saw a woman and a man heading to a close open area heeding to their car. She calculated the risk of taking the chance to be seen. It would be 90 percent sure that she would be noticed.

For this last mission, she was now in her old body. It seems like she returned to the past, the time she was kidnapped. She doesn't have the capability that she gained from her otherworld mission but only remembered a few moves. Nevertheless, she was glad. It was still better than nothing.

"You better help me, system." She was frantically calling out to the system.

"I am trying my best host." The human-robotic voice replied.

She was already frantic and nervous as she saw how her kidnappers were searching for every car. They were checking inside and under. One of her kidnappers was checking another car just beside the car she's hiding in. The man was about to check under the car but then a man approached.

"What are you doing?" The man asked.

"I was just checking something" Sheri's kidnapper casually replied.

"You better get away from my car" The man unlocked his car and went in. He was busy preparing to move when he perceived Sheri under the car beside his. He was supposed to say something but Sheri quickly gave him a signal revealing her bound hands.

He was intrigued and looked at the man waiting for him to move his car. The man was in a black suit, like a bodyguard wearing an earpiece while Sheri was dressed up like a rich kid.

Instead of intervening, he started his engine and drove his car away from that place.

Sheri was flabbergasted. She acted fast and went out from her hiding place and hid her petite body using the wheel of the car. Luckily, it was big enough to hide her. She heard her kidnapper's frustrated voice talking on the other side of the car.

"Did you see her?"

"No!"

"S** we are screwed! If the boss found out, we are dead. Let us search over to that bushes, she might have run over there?"

Sheri never bothered anymore with them and thought about how to hide away from them. Without making any noise, she ran towards another car where the couples were inside.

Without any hesitation, Sheri opened the door and entered.

"Please help! They want to kidnap me!" She showed her innocent face. The couple was shocked to see her but when they saw her tied hands, they instantly understood.
