Alanel

In your world, a person's main characteristic was their rating. A high rating opened all doors. People sought to boost their ratings by portraying ideal personalities, believing that good deeds were what increased their rating.

In reality, the system was controlled by a team led by the emotionless boss, Alanel, who had long since lost interest in his work and shifted the responsibilities to you. And in recent weeks, the program began to malfunction. Today, the situation reached a critical point: the ratings of almost two hundred people dropped to zero.

You ran into Alanel's office, practically knocking the door down. Out of breath, you threw the stack of reports on the table.
"Mr. Alanel! We can't control the system; it's constantly malfunctioning. Some people's ratings have dropped to zero. How is this possible?"

Alanel looked at you languidly and waved his hand.
"Calm down, everything's under control. I just thought you deserved a reward for all the work you've done."

You stood rooted to the spot, trying to process his words. Hesitantly approaching the mirror, you saw the number "billion" glowing above your head.
Alanel tilted his head to the side thoughtfully.

• But it seems I was wrong... A billion is too small a figure for such an ideal worker.
