Felix's sharp eyes lit up slightly. At first glance, he felt quite fond of this ring.
With that, Felix cleaned it with his shirt and then put it on.
A faint smile appeared on his dull handsome face when he saw how good the red color on the ring looked.
"Woi, poor thing, hurry!" A voice shouted from the top of the building, making Felix flinch and hurriedly resume his work.
When break time came, Felix walked over to a shady tree and wiped the sweat from his temples.
However, just as he was about to sit there, a man came rushing over. "Felix, your wife left!"
Felix immediately stood up straight and looked at the man who was his neighbor with some confusion. "What do you mean?"
"Your wife left. Carrying a big bag. Hurry up, you have to go home immediately." With that, the man grabbed Felix and pushed him to leave immediately.
Felix couldn't hold back any longer and sprinted towards home. His heart was racing as he heard his wife leave with a big bag.
Felix's friends who were enjoying their lunch looked at each other and one of them spoke with concern. "If you think about it, Felix is a pity too. It seems like he's the only one whose life is so bad. Already having nothing, now his wife is leaving."
"If you feel sorry for him, do him a favor," chimed in the other man.
"Oh sorry, I suddenly didn't recognize someone named Felix." As he said that, the man stood up and walked away quietly, making his friends laugh.
Felix's neighbors who hadn't left yet could only stare at them and silently pity Felix.
How hard life must be to be Felix. Even at work, he was an outcast and a joke.
After a while of silence, the man finally left.
Arriving home, Felix rudely opened the door and walked quickly into the house. "Arista! Arista!"
"Arista, where are you?" Felix kept shouting for Arista. But she was nowhere to be found.
The first place Felix went to was his room. He went straight to the closet and opened it. All the clothes that were neatly arranged on the left side of the closet were now gone.
For a moment, Felix just stared at the space in front of him. Then, when he came to his senses, he closed the cupboard roughly turned around, and walked quickly out of the house.
Arista might have been still around. Because the distance between when he found out about this and when she left was not too far. He even went home right away.
Felix ran towards the main road without caring about anything else.
There was only one main road here and to get there, there was no public transportation. So he could most likely still catch up with Arista.
Thinking about this, Felix accelerated his pace even more. He didn't realize that he wasn't running on the side of the road.
At that moment, a freight car was speeding from the right side of the intersection. Just as it turned the corner, Felix realized its presence and quickly moved out of the way.
But even so, he was still nudged by the car body and thrown to the side.
"Argh!" Felix winced in pain as his body hit the ground hard.
He tried to open his eyes, but they were blurry. The smell of blood made him feel dizzy and nauseous.
At that moment, Felix was on his stomach and his ring-wearing hand was under his injured forehead. The blood slowly dripped onto the ruby-red stone.
The driver of the car rushed down and shouted frantically. "Help! Help! There's been an accident! Please call an ambulance!"
Instantly everyone came, one by one, and formed a crowd. But none of them tried to get closer to check on Felix. They just talked to each other while pointing.
"Isn't that Felix? Why is he here?" asked one of the women.
A woman across the crowd suddenly replied in a gossipy tone. "I saw Arista, Felix's wife, carrying a big bag. It looks like she ran away, and Felix wants to find her. Besides, who could stand living in poverty with a man like this? If I were in Arista's shoes, I wouldn't be able to stand it either."
People started nodding in agreement. Especially the women. Suddenly, a dismissive gaze fell on the unconscious Felix.
"Felix, Felix, you know you're married. But you don't want to take responsibility. It's only natural that your wife ran away. You should be earning a lot of money, not slacking off with manual labor." A man looked sorry for Felix. He shook his head slowly and walked away.
The driver of the freight car looked incredulous as he witnessed this scene.
He stopped shouting for help and immediately took out his cell phone to call an ambulance.
It didn't take long for the ambulance to arrive.
Upon hearing the shrill sound of the ambulance siren, everyone slowly moved out of the way but didn't stop their mouths from gossiping.
"Sir, please save this man and give him the best treatment. I'll follow in my car," said the driver, pointing to his car which was parked carelessly.
The paramedics nodded and said, "We'll do our best."
After that, they quickly loaded Felix into an ambulance and took him to a nearby hospital.
**
Felix's thick eyebrows furrowed and a moment later his closed eyes moved slowly until they finally opened.
"Where is this?" Felix stared at the white roof of the room and then shifted his gaze around the room. Immediately, he realized that he was in a hospital. He breathed a sigh of relief. "I thought I wouldn't survive."
He hurried to get up and just then, there was a clanking sound, making Felix spontaneously clutch his head.
Ding!
[The system has found an owner!]
[Welcome to, Mr. Felix. Introducing, my name is EasySync System.]
[Here are your details.]
[Name: Felix Zionathan.]
[Age: 26 years old.]
[Physique: 50% after the introductory greeting.]
[Assets: -]
[Luck Point: 0%]
[Current mission: -]
[Note: point redemption starts at 5000 and to earn points, you must complete missions. Each mission has a different level and the points earned are also different, according to the level. You can also choose a mission if the mission I gave you is not interesting enough. In addition, there is a penalty for failing a mission, which is a point deduction].
[5000 points is equivalent to $100,000,000]
Felix was left in a daze. What did that mean?
He continued to stare at the transparent screen in front of him and read the words repeatedly.
"Mission? Points? What's going on? Am I hallucinating?" Felix moved his hand, trying to push away the transparent screen. However, instead of succeeding, he found his hand passing through the screen.
[Hello, Sir, can I help you?]
A soft voice that resembled a whisper echoed in Felix's mind, making the man frown in annoyance. "Who are you? Why do I only hear your voice but not your form? Wait, can you explain? I don't understand."
[Alright. Explanation begins!]
[Sir, my name is the EasySync System. What you see right now is my form. My presence here is to instruct you on the mission and everything. This mission is something that you have to do until you succeed and because of that, you will be rewarded with points that can be exchanged into something. And if you fail, your points will be reduced by 2000].
"Can I use those points to buy a vehicle?" Felix asked enthusiastically.
[That's right. Not only vehicles but even mansions and private jets can be acquired, Sir."]
"Really?" Felix instantly forgot about the existence of his head wound. He straightened up and stared at the transparent screen in front of him with his heart beating with happiness. "Then I accept it. I'll carry out the mission! I want to get rich and buy everything!"
[Alright, let's get started then!]Felix confirmed his sitting position enthusiastically. A happy smile filled his face.[Mission quest begins!][Completed!][Displaying the mission!][Prevent the transfer of shares and change of leadership by the Zay Group company. As well as revealing the true intentions of Bay Pratama who deceived Mr. Zay with his fake identity.]Felix's brows spontaneously furrowed in incomprehension. "What do I have to do for that? I don't know them, either... how can I carry out the mission? The EasySync System, isn't it too heavy?"[No, Sir. This mission is a D-level mission, which is the second lowest level."]"What? Second lowest? If something like this is called the second lowest, then what about the highest level?" Felix unconsciously raised his voice. He suddenly felt regret for accepting this strange system and mission. At first, he thought the mission would be limited to ordinary work, but as it turned out, it was far beyond his expectations. "I don't th
As soon as they reached the floor, the woman beside Felix rushed out even before the elevator doors opened.Felix gave her a confused look and chose to ignore her. Then he followed out, heading towards the meeting room.Every step he took seemed steady. No one knew how hard he was trying to keep his gaze from wandering, gazing around him in awe.Meanwhile, inside the meeting room, the atmosphere was tense.The Executive Council glanced at each other silently as if only a look could understand each other."Daddy, why don't we start right away?" Bay, Mr. Zay's eldest son, who was sitting in the first seat on the right side, spoke up after noticing some unusual looks from the people there. "The sooner the better. After all, everyone needed is already here. So, we have no more reason to stall for time."Mr. Zay, sitting in the main seat, looked at him intently. Then he looked at some of the council, shaking their heads slowly. "Alright, let's get started!"Bay held back his smile that was
Felix thought Mr. Zay would believe him, and the mission would be over quickly. But before he knew it, he was suddenly slapped hard. With his head, he turned to the side; Felix paused, trying to digest what had happened. Just then, Mr. Zay's angry voice rang out. "Call security and drag this crazy man out, now!" Felix turned and looked at Mr. Zay. "Sir, you must listen to me. If you don't believe me, do a DNA test. Your eldest son has been cheating all along." "Go away!" shouted Mr. Zay angrily. Immediately, several security guards arrived and dragged Felix away. "Sir, you have to do it!" shouted Felix before leaving the meeting room. Clarita, who had been silent, followed Felix's departure. Once he was out of sight, she looked at Mr. Zay and said, "Dad, what if we do it to confirm whether the man is lying or not? Whatever the outcome, we don't have any doubts anymore." Bay, smiling happily at Felix's departure, was instantly annoyed when he heard Clarita's words. "Whether th
Felix did not respond and chose to walk past him. He placed the thumb of his right hand on the small device there. The security guard turned around and gave Felix a dismissive look. He had no intention of stopping him again. Just let him do what he wanted. Once he knew the result, he would be ashamed of himself.Ting! The sound of a successful fingerprint sounded melodious. The security guard's face instantly changed. He was stunned and looked at Felix in disbelief. "How... how is that possible?" Felix smiled slightly at his nervous question. However, he had no intention of turning around. Instead, he stepped into the large courtyard as the gate slowly opened. Even as the gate slammed shut again, the security guard stood in a daze. He felt both incredulous and embarrassed. The man he thought was a crazy beggar was the owner of this house! Felix, standing in front of his house, was silent with a circling look. He still couldn't believe what he was getting right now. "EasySync,
"Honey, who is he?" asked Pablo, looking at Felix and Arista. Upon hearing this question, Arista was a little surprised. But she soon regained her composure and looked down at Felix. "He's my ex-husband that I told you about. What a useless husband!" Instantly, a frivolous smile appeared on Pablo's handsome face. He nodded and said, "It was you. No wonder Arista left you. It's-" His words trailed off as he examined Felix's appearance. "You're such a disappointment!" Arista grew even more haughty as she watched Felix fall silent without replying. "Felix, you better get out of here. I'm never going to get back together with you. Oh yeah, I'll send the divorce papers to your ugly house right away!" The security guard who heard everything his employer said suddenly felt nervous. He swallowed and quietly stepped back. Clarita frowned and came forward in annoyance. However, before she could say anything, Felix had already spoken. "Arista, just one day, you've changed so much." Arista
The journey to Mr. Zay's house took about an hour.Once there, Felix was directed to the living room.The bandage wrapped around his forehead had been replaced with a brown plaster at a nearby pharmacy. So now Felix felt more confident and walked with peace of mind.Mr. Zay, waiting in the living room, turned his head at the sound of tapping shoes. "Sit down!"Without hesitation, Felix took his place in front of Mr. Zay. As for Clarita, she immediately went somewhere else."You turned out to be handsome too," said Mr. Zay when he saw Felix's appearance, which was much different from last afternoon.Hearing that, Felix smiled and said in a joking tone. "I'm quite self-aware that my appearance was very bad. By the way, why did you call this madman here after angrily kicking him out earlier?"The look on Mr. Zay's face instantly changed. He straightened up and stared at Felix intently. "I won't apologize to you about what happened in the meeting room earlier. However, where do you know a
"It would be better if you were upfront about your true intentions. All this happened purely because of you, and there is no need to defend yourself by blaming others or expressing dissatisfaction." At that moment, Felix spoke flatly. His voice was undetectable of emotion, united with the night wind, leaving everyone silent.At first, Bay felt stunned after hearing this. But a moment later, he chuckled, which gradually became a booming laugh. He was like someone who had lost his mind. "What do you know about it?""You, a crazy man of obscure origins, wouldn't understand what a scary life I've lived because of this supposedly powerful person!" Bay's angry voice sounded thunderous.His eyes were glaring as if he wanted to destroy Felix with just his gaze. "All of this is because of you! You're destroying everything I've neatly organized over the years!"Felix's brow furrowed slightly. There was displeasure in his gaze. "Why is it my fault? Evil plans don't last long. And you should have
Mr. Zay only smiled when he heard Felix's question. He then turned his face away and slightly twisted his body with a serious expression. "I have doubts in my heart. However, my children never brought it up, let alone ordered a DNA test. I ended up suppressing everything in my heart. However, the guilt in my heart cannot be eliminated."Felix listened carefully. He unconsciously nodded slowly, understanding Mr. Zay's position as a parent who had lost his son for several years.Mr. Zay turned his body to look at Felix. "It just so happens that you came and said what I've wanted to hear. Therefore, I had no hesitation in doing so. Felix, I am truly grateful to you."When he heard such earnest thanks, Felix could not help but be embarrassed. He turned his face away and said, "It's just a small thing, no need to thank me.""I'll be going then," Felix continued, quickly walking to the car that would take him home and getting in.Mr. Zay chuckled at his antics. He took a few steps back and
