The sunlight poked through the curtains, hitting Raihan's eyes like a personal insult. He groaned, pulling the blanket over his head. It was 11 AM, but for Raihan, it was basically midnight.
Suddenly, a mechanical voice echoed in his mind:
[Ding! System Initializing...]
[Host Identified: Raihan Ahmed]
[Unique Attribute: Absolute Laziness (SSS-Grade)]
"Go away, robot," Raihan muttered into his pillow. "Let me sleep... five more hours."
[Warning! A Class-E Goblin has entered your apartment!]
[Mission: Defeat the intruder and save your neighbors.]
[Reward: 100 Gold Coins & The World's Softest Memory Foam Pillow.]
The world's softest pillow? Raihan's ears perked up. His current pillow felt like a bag of bricks. But fighting a goblin? That sounded like a lot of sweating. He rolled over, ignoring the blue holographic screen floating in front of him.
CRASH!
His bedroom door flew off its hinges. A green, ugly creature with a rusted dagger charged in, screaming a war cry. Raihan didn't even sit up. He reached out blindly, grabbing an electric mosquito swatter from his bedside table.
"Too loud," Raihan sighed, waving the swatter lazily to shoo the goblin away. "Come back during office hours."
[Skill Activated: Lazy Man's Casual Swat!]
The moment the swatter touched the goblin's chest, a massive shockwave exploded. BOOM! The creature was sent flying through the wall, disappearing into the skyline like a shooting star.
[Ding! Monster Defeated!]
[Exp Gained: 500]
[Level Up! You are now Level 2!]
[Reward Sent to Inventory: The Softest Pillow.]
Raihan blinked, looking at the gaping hole in his wall. "Now I have to call a contractor to fix that? That's so much work..."
He hugged his new, magically soft pillow and closed his eyes again. He didn't care about being a hero; he just wanted a peaceful Sunday. Little did he know, the 'Hero System' was just getting started.
