THE MY GREAT PAINTER SYSTEM
Pearls in Straw

In the city park, Sean prefers to observe the surroundings. His face seemed frustrated because he had not yet found a suitable model for his art object. At least he has a bigger problem than that. Sean did not have the confidence to paint in front of the model.

“Why does the system always give me jobs I don't like? Can't the system just give the mission to paint?” Sean rubbed his hair in frustration.

Unable to find a model, Sean plans to go home and give up on a mission that could be worth a billion, but on the way there is a surprising turn of events.

‘Shelf!’

Someone bumped into Sean from the front and his body was pushed down.

“Auh!” sean was in pain.

He fell on the ground by holding a girl on top of him. Due to Shock, the long black haired girl only fell silent over Sean.

“Just silent? Can't you get out of the way?” insist Sean. However, the girl simply shook her head without even bothering to shift in the slightest.

The impatient Sean immediately sat down and pushed him away. That was when Sean was stunned to see his face.

The 17-year-old girl has a different beauty than other girls. White skin that seems to glow, red lips easily as if polished with a pink brush and black eyes with a soft highlight. Sean can see dense eyelashes up and down following the movement of his eyelids. So beautiful as a real work of art. The face was perfect for a model.

“Sorry,” he said gently. The black eyes of the girl were directed at Sean's clothes. “I accidentally hit you and ... make your shirt dirty.”

“Kotor?” Sean immediately saw his shirt and at that time he realized that his shirt had been stuck with ice cream complete with his cone. “Hah?”

“I'm sorry once again, I really did not accidentally.” The girl got up and lowered her body with regret.

Today was really shit. Already failed to find a model, now the problem increases. Somehow Sean had to get rid of his dirty clothes at this time.

“It's okay, just a little dirty and can be cleaned by washing back,” replied Sean.

Sean prefers to clean the contents of his bag which also fell and scattered on the ground. Tolerantly, the girl in front of him helped out.

“Ah, are you a painter?” ask when picking up some brushes and paint.

“I'm just an art student, now second year.” Sean answered her with origin, but her proud expression looked different.

A different expression was shown the girl, her face looking bright with wide eyes. He was so enthusiastic when he found out that the young man he met was an art student.

“Waow, cool!” he was full of admiration. “I also want to be a painter and plan to enroll to the art faculty, but I really suck at it.”

“Hei is your painting good?” continue with long talks. The sudden remark made Sean a little surprised. He raised his gaze. “Can you teach me? I can pay you for that."

There was not the slightest interest that read on Sean's face. It was likely that he would be interested in that payment if there were not 1 billion in the account. However, he went back to thinking about getting what he did not have.

"I'm Sean, I can teach you what I can, but for the pay I just want you to be my model every time I need you. How's it?" With a smile he negotiated. The young man looked unyielding to extend his hand

Sean's offer was so tempting, even the girl seemed easy to accept the offer from the person she met for the first time. "Sean, let's work together. You can call me Ellian.

***

Under the afternoon sky, warm sunlight fell on the face of Ellian who was posing lightly. Despite appearing to be doing nothing and just standing leaning against a tree, his innocent face had managed to inspire Sean

Not far from where he stood, Sean was staring straight at the drawing paper that was in front of him without knowing how to start. This was his first time painting with a model, let alone a model that he had a beautiful face and was good at soft expression.

As the tip of the brush touched his painting medium, Sean recalled the abilities gained from daily missions.

"Right, how can I use the Dragon's Hand ability?" thought.

The system window appeared as if it knew Sean's predicament. "true."

[Remarks: Dragon's Hand can be used to improve basic painting skills. You can use it in different types of paintings]

[Note: Ability can only be used once in 24 hours]

The system window again appears by describing the ability usage settings. For a moment, Sean tried to look at each letter of the writing system that had no harm to himself.

[You want to continue using the ability?]

"Right," Sean replied so softly as not to want to be considered insane by his model.

[Dragon's Hand ability was successfully activated.]

Crick ... krik …. Nothing happened after that.

A light coming out of his fingers or a dragon wrapped around his hand really did not happen. Not really according to his name. But Sean noticed a slight change that his hand felt so light as cotton.

"Hey, Sean! How much longer do I have to be a statue like this? You know, my legs are tingling," said Ellian who could not change his expression properly. 

Sean looked at her in embarrassment, how could his 5 minutes long let the model pose, whereas he just fussed with the system.

"Ah, sorry. I'll end it soon enough, "please entertain Sean immediately break the model's boredom.

***

Sean had almost finished his painting and it had taken himself by surprise. How could the paper he painted be so beautiful, not even from Sean's hands.

The difference from the previous painting was so striking, Sean did not think that the ability he used could be influential to that extent.

Really cool!

“Sean, how?” billih Ellian who looked tired.

“Ahh, a little more.”

Sean was aghast and refocused on his work. However, Ellian's patience was up. The girl smashes her pose and comes to Sean.

“Waow how can you paint this cool!” Ellin was amazed when she saw Sean's painting.

The painting on A4 size paper is a realistic type that depicts the Ellian from different sides. It really looks so beautiful, even Ellian can see the soul of her being in the painting.

“I didn't expect it to be this good, were you really a student? You're a real genius!” Ellian pushed her elbow slowly..

The excessive praise made Sean blush. Although many have said that his paintings are good, but he can feel the earnestness in the praise of Ellian.

“Am I worthy to teach you?” Sean's making.

“Really! My judgment on someone would not be wrong. With this I will not fail the art university exam.”

Sean simply smiled at the astonishment of Ellian. Even after she finished her painting, the girl still glorified herself. 

They exchange numbers and schedule days where they can meet again. Ellian needs a tutor and Sean needs a model.

Painting with a model wasn't as bad as Sean thought.
