Alexander ignored the man and looked to his right. He saw an old-looking van parked on the pavement.Obviously, only a crazy person or someone who didn’t care about the law would park the van the way it was.Well, by looking at how abandoned the street was, the chances that the police would patrol the area went from very slim to none, so there was no reason for whoever parked the van to fear any consequences.“That must be what they drove to get the money from Mary and bring it here. Well, I’m just guessing but the way the air around the hood is being distorted must mean that it’s still hot and only a freshly used vehicle would—“ Alexander’s brain was firing, deducting everything his eyes saw like he was a veteran detective.Putting fifteen stat points into his intellect was the best decision he had ever made. That and accepting the possession system when it first appeared to him at the hospital, the day before.“Are you deaf?! I said who the fucking hell are you?!” The man yelled aga
Inside the apartment building, in one of the rooms on the top floor sat the Kingpin of the operation on a luxurious couch and was watching a game of football on his massive fifty-five-inch television.On both sides were two skimpy-dressed girls who couldn’t get their bodies off of him.The Kingpin had his right hand inside the shirt of one of the girls, fondling her breasts while the left hand held both the cigar he was smoking and his betting ticket for the current game he was watching.On each corner of the room was a hooligan who served as his protection and they were all properly armed.The Kingpin took his eyes off the television for a moment and looked at something that caused the veins on the sides of his head to throb.“How long are all of you fuckers going to take before you finish counting that, huh?!” He yelled at the gathering of seven scared kids between his couch and the television.They all sat on the floor, counting heaps of cash in their middle while supervising them
Thirty seconds ago, after the hooligan took aim at Alexander and was about to shoot, something surprising happened.At the speed of thought, which was several times faster than any form of human movement, Alexander told the system:‘Hey system, use my one free slot given by the god of Vengeance to possess all the guns within the vicinity’Immediately, the system replied.[As Mr. Alexander Curry wishes][Scanning for all guns present in the vicinity intimidated][Scan complete][Total number of guns: 20][Using Mr. Alexander Curry’s one possession slot to possess all guns in the vicinity][Progress: 1%… 5%… 20%… 45%… 72%… 89%… 95%… 100%][Congratulations Mr. Alexander Curry, all guns in the vicinity now belong to you and have been kept in a safe place]Like he felt a connection to his new possession, Alexander knew exactly where the system had transferred all the guns to.It was the trunk of his car and the passenger seat.Because the guns ranged from pistols to shotguns to AK 47s, the
Alexander ran into the building and immediately was confronted by the multitude of hooligans, all ready to fight back with their different weapons of choice, not including guns.Knowing just how dangerous the intruder was, thanks to what most of them had witnessed take place outside the apartment, the information to underestimate the young multimillionaire had already been passed around and not a single one of them was going to make the same mistake as the first two hooligans who had fought Alexander outside.They also weren’t going to go at him as singles or in pairs of two, because, from what they concluded, two people were the most Alexander could handle at once, and if they were being generous then at most three.They did witness that he had no problem going against the three last hooligans after he took care of the first two and for him to not be scared to engage in a one versus three battle, then that must have meant that he could at least hold his own just fine.Now, they never
Everyone focused, trying their best to increase how much of what was happening on the floors below they could hear.Unfortunately, doing that presented a challenge because they were on the third floor and unless someone was loud to a certain decibel, nothing from the ground floor would be audible to them.Still, they hoped to pick up the voice of at least one of the hooligans who had gone down to stop Alexander, but they couldn’t because something else was obstructing them.That was the football game being shown on the massive television whose sound was blasting off its high-quality speakers.“Gimme that remote!” the Kingpin told both of the skimpy-dressed girls sitting on the couch.They hurriedly gave the remote to him and he angrily muted the television then tossed the remote back on the couch.Without the television’s noise disturbing them, the Kingpin tried listening again to see if he could pick up any sound but all he could hear was the breaths of the people around him.On the
Alexander walked into the room and then stopped by the doorway.He assessed the environment, first staring at his duffle bag on the couch because his Find My Possession Feature was still active and he was drawn to it.‘Hey, system. Turn off the Find My Possession Feature’ Alexander thought.[As Mr. Alexander Curry wishes][Find My Possession Feature deactivated]‘Thank you’ Alexander replied then continued his assessment.He took notice of the two skimpy-dressed girls who the duffle bag was in the middle of and he saw that they were intrigued about him which must have been due to his good looks and how only he was able to defeat all the hooligans sent his way.What girl wouldn’t be attracted to a man who could do such? Especially, when they seemed rich because what Alexander had on, although rough and covered in blood, depicted his wealth.Surprisingly, after locking eyes with both of them, Alexander saw the two girls begin to frown at him. They must have felt embarrassed about showin
Alexander looked at the message from the system and was immediately angered by it.‘Who cares about something stupid as that?! An innocent kid just fell to what could positivity be his death and this is the nonsense you think I want to read right now?!’ He yelled at the system in his mind.Unfortunately, the system wasn’t a human, and neither did it have compassion to care about what he was yelling about. After all, the mission was to take care of the people involved in Blessing’s kidnapping and it didn’t matter if the other kidnapped victims were hurt or not.In fact, Alexander didn’t even know if the system would have punished him if Blessing had been the one who fell out the window to her possible demise. It was never once stated that his success in the mission was on the condition that the girl was safe and thinking back to it, the mission was given by the god of Vengeance, who, by its name wanted to see pain and destruction, so saving someone wasn’t really what it was known for.
Alexander limped closer to James, his legs needing a little time before the pain would subside.Once standing over the kid, he crouched down and went to check the boy’s vitals.His eyes widened.“This isn’t good. If the outside is this bad then I can only imagine what the inside of his body looks like. Probably has severe internal bleeding as he is right now” Alexander said then took his hand off James.Left with no choice, he took out his phone from his pocket and called for an ambulance, but unlike the police, he actually gave the location of where he was.They told him that they would be there in about five minutes and he ended the call.“Don’t worry kid, an ambulance with some well-qualified paramedics is on the way right now so just hang on until then” he said and then James coughed up blood.Alexander grimaced and started to scratch his hair nervously.‘This is bad. This is really bad. If things continue like this, I won’t be surprised that he would be dead minutes before any rea
Alexander went back to WhatzApp where he continued chatting with Winifred until she said that she had to go offline because her teacher just walked into the class and she would talk to him later. The chat ended which was good because Alexander was starting to get tired as he wasn’t someone who liked chatting all that much. After that, Alexander looked at his phone, from front to back, and groaned. “Why haven’t I upgraded this yet?” He asked himself as he looked at the phone with disgust. How could he be using such an old model when he had hundreds of millions of dollars in his account? It was unbecoming and disgraceful. “Alright, I guess I know what to do today,” Alexander said then he dropped the phone on the bed and went to take a shower. After a couple of minutes, he came out of the bathroom fully dried, put on what he would wear for his outing then he took the phone from the bed and went out of the house. He got into his car and got ready to drive off, but first, he need
If he wasn’t able to read at an incredible pace thanks to his heightened intellect, he wouldn’t have been able to finish reading the second message because she deleted it less than a second after he received it.She sent the message again some seconds later and the second sentence was gone.[If you are then it’s kind of late, don’t you think?]Alexander chuckled because the deleted message showed that the girl had eavesdropped on his conversation with her father because she shouldn’t have known that he was done with high school and was waiting to go to college.She knew this which was why she deleted it, hoping that he didn’t see the message. Unfortunately for her, he did, and she couldn’t ask if he did because it would be awkward, so she just hoped and wanted to move on.He replied [Yeah, I know] pretending like he didn’t see the message she deleted.He also messaged that he wanted to save her number so she should give him a minute. [Okay but hurry up so we can continue talking][No
After eating so much food and satisfying his hunger, Alexander slept like a log and because he had nothing to do the following day, the System didn’t bother to wake him up. Within the time that he slept, his body changed a little, adapting to the ten stat points he was awarded after accomplishing his last mission, and a good portion of the food he ate was used for that which was why he wasn’t bloated after gobbling up all those many dishes.The next morning came and Alexander continued to sleep, not hearing when his alarm rang until it stopped.A couple of minutes passed and the alarm rang again but still, he wasn’t able to hear it until it stopped.Between the second time the alarm rang and the next time it would ring again— after snoozing— Alexander received a notification on his phone.It was a message, two actually, but Alexander still wasn’t able to hear them because of how deep in sleep he was until, finally, the next alarm that rang woke him up.{“Good morning, Mister Alexande
Afterward, Alexander, Mr. Terrence, and Mrs. Terrence sat in the living room and talked business while Winifred was told to go to her room. The girl pretended to do that, but she sat by the stairs and listened to the entire meeting. Her reason for doing that was because she wanted to know when the meeting would be over. She knew that Alexander would leave immediately after the meeting was done and she wanted to see him before he did. A couple of minutes later and the meeting came to an end. “Since we’re done discussing everything we have to for today, I guess it’s about time I take my leave,” Alexander said as he stood up from the couch. “Of course. Please allow us to escort you to your car” Mr. Terrence said as he and his wife stood up as well.“Thank you” Alexander smiled.“Wait, Winifred hasn’t said goodbye to him yet,” Mrs. Terrence said.“What?” Mr. Terrence grimaced. “It was her idea to invite Alexander over for dinner which resulted in this wonderful meeting taking place,
After the Possession System had transferred all of Mr. Ferguson’s properties and net worth to him, it had also replaced his name and face in all proof of ownership to Alexander’s and that includes blog articles and documentation of the matter.The Possession System had also covered a veil on everyone’s minds that made them forget that Mr. Ferguson used to be the rightful owner of everything that used to be his and replaced it with Alexander if they ever tried to look up the information.The veil also made inconsistencies in the altered proof of ownership redundant, meaning that anyone who checked the information wouldn’t think twice after seeing that the casino which had been active for longer than Alexander had been alive was somehow founded by him and one other person.In essence, whenever they saw or read anything that used to have Mr. Ferguson’s name and face as the owner of things, they would see Alexander’s which is exactly what happened when Mr. Terrence quickly reached for his
“It’s fine, honey. Alexander is our guest so I don’t see why we can’t break certain eating habits to accommodate him” Mr. Terrence said and his wife groaned. Again, she suspected her husband and his intention for permitting the invite she gave Alexander to come eat with them.Still, she kept quiet and just let things play out.“Well, I’d like to increase the number the estates I’ve built from the cities we’re occupying to other cities in other states as well, creating like a housing franchise. While I’m doing that, I’ve been thinking of entering into other business ventures that’ll be more profitable in the long run” Mr. Terence said and Alexander groaned. “Other business ventures, huh? Which ones do you have in mind?” Alexander asked. Mr. Terrence cleared his throat because he didn’t know how Alexander was going to take what he was about to say.“Well, I was thinking of getting into ventures like the casino business but things like that are quite challenging. You’d need someone wh
“Thank you, Missus Terrence, and don’t mind if I do,” Alexander said then asked Winifred to help him with one of the bowls so he could dish more food for himself. As she gave Alexander the bowl and he started dishing for himself, Mr. Terrence asked “So, Alexander, as I was saying before I was painfully interrupted…”Mrs. Terrence rolled her eyes again while having a smile on her face.“What’s your basketball experience?” Mr. Terrence asked as Alexander gave the bowl back to Winifred to keep while asking her to give him another bowl. “I’ve never played the game before. As a matter of fact, I’ve never been on the court or held the ball before” Alexander replied and Mr. Terrence’s eyes widened.“What about high school? Didn’t your high school have basketball as one of the sports the students played? Surely you got curious about shooting at the hoop at least once or twice” Mr. Terrence said.“Yes, we did have a basketball court as well as other games but I never really got to play” Ale
Both ladies were looking very beautiful. Though Winifred was young and still growing into her looks, she was very beautiful and had an innocent look to her which would make any man’s heart melt. As for Mrs. Terrence, she was the evidence of what the young girl had to look forward to when she was her age. Her face and body were excellently crafted by her creator. “What are you guys talking about?” Mrs. Terrence asked and both Alexander and her husband looked at her and Winifred. “I was just getting to know Alexander a little better is all. Isn’t that right, Alexander?” Mr. Terrence asked and they all looked at Alexander. “That’s right. Mr. Terrence and I were just talking about how I grew up and all. Nothing too serious” Mrs. Terrence looked at her husband suspiciously for a moment. Like Alexander, she too had a feeling that there was a motive behind why he agreed to the dinner invitation but she didn’t think as far as Alexander did to realize the truth so she let it go. “Alrig
“I’m very observant, remember? I could smell your intentions behind asking me all those questions from a mile away” Alexander said and Mr. Terrence groaned as he furrowed his eyebrows.“My intentions?” The man of the house asked.“That’s right. I’m not a father, but if I were, especially a father to a girl child, I wouldn’t just allow a stranger of my stature and build to come into my house just because my daughter wanted to invite them. Knowing how good of a businessman you must be to have what you do, you wouldn’t make such a reckless decision which leaves me to think that the reason why you allowed my invitation to pass is because you wanted to know what type of person you new tenant is, so this is basically a business move disguised as a caring father act” Alexander said and Mr. Terrence kept quiet to listen to the rest of what the young multimillionaire was going to say. “Because it isn’t normal for a person my age to have the amount of money to rent a place here or drive the ki
