"Where am I?"
Asher's eyes opened, greeted by white walls. He looked left, noticing a heart rate monitor beeping steadily, a sterile scent lingering, and the soft hum of medical equipment. Nurses in scrubs hurried past the half-open door, and distant conversations echoed, confirming his suspicion – he was in a hospital room."How did I get here?" he asked himself.The last thing he recalled was the heartbreaking scene at his workplace – losing both his girlfriend and job on the same day. How bad could his life be?Soon, a nurse rushed into the room upon noticing Asher was up. She was a blonde-haired lady with a nice figure, dressed in a neat, pretty nurse uniform."How are you feeling?" she asked, checking the heart rate monitor."I feel alright. But how did I get here? Who brought me here?" he inquired."A kind old man brought you here and paid all the bills for you. You don't have to worry about the payment. Just get healed quickly," she smiled."Old man, did he tell you his name or anything?""No, now that you ask, he didn't actually say his name. He said you might know who he is when you wake up, but he mentioned something. He said you should take good care of the necklace.""Wait, necklace." Asher recalled the necklace was around his neck when he was thrown out of work."Did you see any necklace? I'm sure it was on me before I fainted.""Sorry, you weren't wearing any necklace when he brought you here. Also, you shouldn't stress yourself this much and instead focus on healing. I'll ask the cleaners to search around for it later."While she spoke, Asher noticed a holographic window appearing in front of his eyes.[[ Billionaire God System Online ]][[ Welcome Host ]][[ Welcome Back ]]He observed it weirdly and cleaned his eyes thoroughly. What was this in front of him? Was he dreaming?"What is wrong, sir?" the nurse asked."Nothing, it is just this hologram in front of my eyes.""What holograph, sir?""This one, the one right here. Over here, it is floating around me.""Sir, please lay down and sleep. The stress must be affecting your head. I will go on and inform the doctor but do well to rest a little."'Wait, she can't see it. Does that mean I'm the only one seeing this, or am I going mental?'[[ No Host, you aren't going mental.

MISSION COMPLETED ]][[ You got 3/3 correct ]][[ One million dollars have been transferred to your bank account ]]Asher didn't believe it; he was still unsure if he was drunk or just seeing things he wasn't supposed to see.However, he felt a vibration on the cupboard beside the bed. It was his phone. He quickly stretched his hands to grab the phone."I'm sure it is a notification from customer service; it happens a lot. There is no way it would be money... Wait, no way!"⟨⟨ Notification: Your account (XXXX-8765) has been credited with $1,000,000 from sender XX-999.

The nurse, a kind lady, bought a new set of clothes for him to change into.Boarding a taxi back home, Asher was deep in thought about the mysterious entity in his possession. A yellow-black taxi stopped in front of a small bungalow, and a young handsome man with fluffy black hair and crystal blue eyes walked out, dressed plainly. It was none other than Asher; he paid the driver, and the taxi drove off immediately.Nevertheless, he was greeted with a troublesome scene. Catherine was packing his clothes and throwing them on the ground."Catherine!" He called her name angrily. This woman had no pity at all, breaking his heart and throwing his things away. How much would she prove she hated him?"So you're back? I guess you must have gone to visit one of your side chicks to beg for money as usual. Not like I care what you do outside; that won't stop me from throwing your things away." She scoffed, to
Brighton and Catherine were surprised by his change of attitude; he was definitely depressed and trying to act differently. They didn't even care."See you at work tomorrow," Brighton stomped his feet, and they left."See you guys too."After waving at them with a smile, he walked inside and waited for the system to boot completely.[[ Booting completed ]][[ The system has merged with your world and would now prepare a grand scheme to make you take over the world.

'Why did they call me a thief? What kind of rumor is going around about me at the office?? What have those two done?' He yelled inwardly, subconsciously drawn away from what happened around him."Are you deaf!!" The two guards yelled, dragging him out of his daze."See, you two, how about we make a deal?""We don't make deals with losers?? Turn around and leave!!""What if there is money involved?""Money, you don't even have money to get yourself clothes and here you are, talking about making a deal with money."Asher only smiled wryly, "I will give you guys one hundred dollars each, and you will let me in.""One hundred dollars? Are you going to steal? I'm sure it's impossible to find something valuable in someone like you."Asher smiled and whipped out a bundle of cash, "See, 1 thousand dollars, and I'll give you guys 10% each of this money. It is more than the tip you will ever make in a day."The two guards stared at each other; this money was indeed big. Although in the eyes of
Asher has only had this system for less than two days, yet he has already studied its structure and planned to leverage it to his advantage.Just now, he could have easily slapped the money on the face of the disrespectful employee and Brighton, but he held back, knowing that the system would trigger a quest with a rewarding outcome."Asher, you're a thief, you deserve to be in jail. Once the boss sees you tomorrow, he'll hand you over to the cops, poor..." Brighton spat out nonsense."Brighton, shut up," Asher retorted.Silence followed his retort.The employee was beyond surprised, "Are you out of your mind? A thief is talking to someone in high class with so much boldness. Do you want to die?"Asher scoffed, "It is you who wants to die, you also want to lose your job.""Lose my job? How? Because of a thief like you who wants to scam this hotel? I would get a raise; this hotel would give me a raise for this because I prevented a loss.""Shut up, disrespectful b*tch. Tell me the pric
"Welcome to Gold Lush Hotel's highest premium membership," Ariana smiled kindly and extended her hand for a handshake.Just moments ago, when she walked down, she was mentally stressed from the paperwork she went through upstairs. When she saw Asher, she thought he was here to ask for a job and later learned he was actually trying to scam.She could have blasted her lungs out and sent guards to chase him out, but she professionally decided against it and acted kindly. She even promised to give him the lowest-cost room, which she was willing to pay from her pocket money. Turns out, she was wrong about him."Nice doing business with you. When will I be getting the black card?"To Asher, Ariana was a kind lady. She knew he would be poor because of his clothes but didn't insult him. Such people deserve higher pay and recognition.Ariana smiled, "We will get it done immediately. Give me your full name and your ID card."Brighton stood in a corner, short of words. This thief had his way aro
Prime-M is part of the top ten busiest business groups in Larian City. They have only been around for less than two years, but due to their consistency and good work ethics, they've climbed the business ladder without help from big families.Inside, at an office on the 3rd floor, Asher, dressed in plain clothes, stood in front of a middle-aged man with ponytail black hair. He is the boss of Prime-M, Jaden Owen."Asher, you've been a good worker for this company. Your work ethic was perfect, and I received no complaints from any customer that did business with you in the past. But why is everything changing? Why did you steal one million dollars from the company?" Jaden Owen asked with a calm look on his face.Although there were rumors that Asher stole the money, Jaden didn't believe it, as he didn't even trust the person who brought the rumors. In fact, that person was standing beside Asher – Catherine, dressed in a fine blue dress revealing a large part of her cleavage, and Brighton
At another office in Prime-M. "Two days ago, Asher was sacked, around what time was he sacked and how did it happen?" "Oh, that? Well, Asher pissed off Brighton by disrupting his session with Catherine and out of anger under a false pretense of carrying out responsibility, he fired Asher." "Oh, so what you are trying to say is that Asher didn't deserve to be fired?" "Yup, but you didn't hear this from me, I don't want to lost my job." Two pretty ladies in suits discussed. After the discussion, the one asking the questions left the room and went outside to meet two police officers, Jaden, Asher, Catherine and Brighton. Jaden looked at Jaden and Catherine, "So this is what you really did? We have asked seven workers already and they all said the same thing." Brighton head was bowed, he couldn't reply. But Asher kept a confident smile, he already knew who stole the money but he was only bringing up this scheme in order for them to find out themselves. Last night, while at the ho
Jaden looked at the two of them for an extra two minutes, shook his head, and then turned to Asher with an apologetic look on his face."Asher, sorry for the false accusation laid on you. As you can see, it was all false rumors.""No need, I have already forgotten about this from the beginning. How can I be angry when some dumbass made the whole thing up to disgrace me and make you hate me so much not to give me back the job?""About the job, Asher, I have studied your working pattern for the past few days. Your work ethic is good, so I have decided to promote you to the position of office manager; you will be taking over from Catherine."Catherine's eyes widened, "Boss, I'm sorry if I have erred against you, but that position is my life."Brighton chimed in, "Boss Jaden, Catherine does a better job than Asher."Jaden shook his head, "Brighton, I have changed my mind. Asher would be taking over your position as well."Hearing this, Brighton's knees weakened, his eyes turned red with s
Even after Asher and Tiger chased the annoying woman away, the homeless guy who had his eyes shut didn't bother opening it. Asher stared at him with an interested expression on his face, he observed his features closely. He has long messy facial hair that made it impossible for someone to see his face, in fact, one wouldn't be able to guess his age. "Yuan, we know you are not asleep." Asher called his name with a smile. Hearing someone call his name, a name that no one has called for ten years made him open his eyes. He stood up and glared at Asher, "How did you know my name, who are you!" He looked really pissed off and vigilant. "Yuan, get off your act." Tiger reprimanded. It was at that moment that Yuan noticed him, he found this face extremely familiar and very soon his eyes widened. "Senior Tiger??" Tiger smiled, "Yes that is me." Yuan eyes widened, "I thought... You, y
The next day quickly arrived after a night of peaceful sex, Asher was laying on the bed with a warm smile on his face while Arianna relaxed her head on his chest. Today, he would be kicking off another part of life, he couldn't help but be glad about it. Just then, his phone rang, it was a call from a tiger. —"Good morning boss, Terry asked me to inform you that the stuff is ready." "Great, I want you and anyone you trust in a gang affair to come to Terry's place by 7." —"Hmm, the only one I trust is Nathan." "No need for them, I have already informed Nathan." —"I will be there by the time you say." Asher nodded his head and hung up the call. Arianna was still deep asleep, he could tell if someone was asleep or pretending with the help of his extraordinary eyes. He smiled and planted a kiss on her forehead before heading into the bathroom to have a nice bath, after that, he left the hotel. ....Terry's Mansion. Asher was sitting on the sofa with a relaxed expression on his
Asher and Arianna returned to Gold Lush hotel, however getting there, they were informed that someone who claimed to be a friend of Asher was waiting.Asher escorted Arinna to her room before going to meet the visitor who turned out to be Nathan. "Wassup, Nathan"Both of them shook hands and Nathan looked at Asher with worry in his eyes, after the question Asher asked yesterday, he began to doubt it, "Asher, Do you really wanna become a gangster?""Yeah, why do you ask?" He sensed the worry in his buddy's voice and was curious."I know we had the same goal in the past but that was just our childhood fantasies that i managed to achieve faster, however, as i have experienced everything you are about to experience, as a friend, it would be evil of me if I don't tell you about it."Nathan sounded really serious unlike his usual funny self, Asher grew up with Nathan, he knew more about him than anyone."Asher, getting into a gang affair is like separating yourself from normal humans, you w
At Terry's Mansion, Terry stared at Asher, confused. "Are you sure you really want to do that?"He was puzzled when Asher came to his place this morning, telling him that he wanted to create a gang. Although he knew someone as powerful as him would be able to handle all the work that comes with creating a gang, he was still surprised as to what motivated him to.Asher, currently sipping his wine with a calm expression on his face, looked at Terry. "I gave an order not for you to ask questions but to carry them out."Terry shivered upon hearing his cold voice. "What do you want to name your gang? I can take care of everything and in two days, I will get back to you with your gang creation pass," he said.Asher thought about it. He hadn't really thought of a name for his gang, but hearing that question made him realize that he needed one."What should I name it now?" he pondered while staring at the wine glass.Then he turned to look at Terry as a name appeared in his head. "Dragon Vang
"Tell me who sent you, little bastard!" said Nathan as he kicked Rodney's stomach, causing him to fall to the ground, wincing in pain. However, he couldn't say anything. Rodney had taken a lot of beating to the point he started wishing for death. He had made a deal never to reveal that person's identity. If he doesn't, he might be killed. But if he reveals that name, the chances of him getting killed would be way higher. Nathan looked at Rodney with a frown. He had used all his beating techniques and so much torture, but Rodney refused to speak. He turned to Wallace, who lay on the ground unconscious. He had given Wallace such a beating that he couldn't speak anymore, let alone move.Nathan sighed. This was going to be much more work than expected.....Meanwhile, at an office in the Money Shark business building.Bruce could be seen sitting with a masked figure who gave off a strong aura.The man giving off a strong aura had long black hair that was revealed through the mask. His
Asher was at the Milan Mansion. A big family meeting was going on and the atmosphere around the round table wasn't good at all. Mark was sitting close to Brad with a scowl on his face, right beside him was Ariana who had a disgusted expression towards her brother. Rodney was kneeling in the middle of the room, his head was bowed. Just then the guards from outside opened the door and two men grabbing another man like a thief walked in. "Boss you were right, this annoying bastard is nothing more than a thief!" Tiger said as he tossed Wallace to the ground, causing him to let out a small cry of pain. Wallace lifted his head even though he was in pain, he saw Mark and Brad, they looked fully healthy! He also noticed Rodney kneeling very close to him with his head bowed to the ground. He suddenly came to a realization, their plans didn't work! When his eyes met Asher's, he was greeted with so many emotions at once, surprise, hate, anger and jealousy. "So it was you targeting my li
Wallace had finished speaking with his buddy. After confirming from his buddy that the job was done, a wild smile crept onto his face. Thoughts of a successful future, where both he and his friend would become rulers of a vast business empire, began to play in his head."I will have any woman I want, buy any car, live in an estate of my choice, and get to shake hands with big content creators.My fanbase would grow, it wouldn't just be those who love my bodybuilding but also those curious about my wealth," he muttered to himself.Then a face appeared in his head—a handsome young man with a scheming smile."And that fucker! Damnit! Why haven't those bastards called to confirm his death? I can't wait anymore!" he gritted his teeth.He grabbed his phone and called the same person."Hello, yes, it's me! Why the fuck are you guys taking so much time? I want him dead, and that bastard is still roaming around, fully alive. Do you think I have all the time in the world?"—"Calm down! My men a
In this world, evil and good exists on a large scale, contrasting each other on a daily basis! It is said that the good ones die first and the evil one lives more, however in the case of Rodney, that didn't seem to be the case. "Rodney! You were my favorite son! I literally did everything you wanted without asking why, I had so many shares in different companies using your name to ensure you have a bright future even though you were lazy. Among all my kids, you are the only one who eats my money the most without working but yet.." Mark's voice lowered while saying the last statement. Rodney's head was lowered to the ground. "I am sorry..." He apologized but Asher knew those apologies were fakes. At that moment, his phone rang. However, he quickly hung up. "Pick the call, it's from Wallace, right? And put it on speaker when you do, don't you dare act like you are in trouble." Asher said with an authoritative voice. "No... It's just casual stuff, I don't need to pick it up." H
At Terry's mansion, the 7th floor which is three floors away from the floor the chaos was taking place.Rodney was sitting there, facing a led screen TV while clutching a glass of wine in his right hand.On his face was a smile, this smile is like that of a man whose life is going just as planned."Haha, next on the line is Brad and then that bastard Asher!" He muttered to himself.He has been here, enjoying himself since he heard the news that his dad and sister have been kidnapped.What is left now is for the poison to start taking effect and then, those two would be as useless as a mentally ill person. His plan wasn't for them to die but for them to run mad."Why is Terry not here yet? I thought I told him to make it fast. Knowing my father, he would try to bargain for his life, I hope that fool won't fall for it." He complained, a frown etched on his face.15 minutes passed! There was no Terry.The men that left the room about thirty minutes ago are still not here.Rodney was frus
