Everything belongs to me NEW MISSION
“Foul play—?!” Alexander, who was so angry that he let his emotions get the better of him, exclaimed, but then froze when everyone around the table looked at him. Their stares made him self-conscious. “Is everything alright, young man? You startled us with your sudden outburst” Mr. Ferguson said, feigning genuine concern.Faking a smile, Alexander replied “Sorry about that. I thought I was speaking with my inner dialogue, but I accidentally blurted out without meaning to” His answer took a lot of self-control because all the young multimillionaire wanted to do at that moment was to smack the pretentious man right across the face. Mr. Ferguson grunted.“Inner dialogue? What exactly could you be thinking about at this moment? From how hard you exclaimed, it seems to me like it’s a very serious matter”, The distinguished man said.Alexander chuckled awkwardly and then replied “What else could I be thinking about if not how much I’ve lost since I started this game? I might have what s
Everything belongs to me LEFT HAND
The dealer had finished clearing the table, and it was time to start a new round.“What do you say, my young friend? Want to start us off like you did last time?” Mr. Ferguson said, gesturing that Alexander should go ahead to place his bet.“Oh yes, it’s my turn again,” Alexander said, then reached into his duffle bag and grabbed a bundle of dollars.He broke the bundle and took out the smallest amount he could get and that was a hundred dollar bill. The young multimillionaire dropped the rest of the bundle back into the duffle bag, then he folded the hundred-dollar bill in half. “Here you go, dealer. Give me the equivalent of this in chips”, Alexander said, stretching the folded dollar to the dealer’s left hand, which was the hand that the dealer used to operate the remote in his left trouser pocket. The dealer had already gotten ready ahead of time, thinking that Alexander was going to drop his betting chips on the table like before, so he had stuffed his left hand in his trouser
Everything belongs to me SLOT MACHINE
The dealer gulped “What?”Alexander chuckled, telling the system to terminate the contract because he didn’t want someone who wasn’t involved in any of this to die.“Nothing. I was just joking but a word of advice. Never put someone else’s life on the line trying to back up your statement, or you might just cause their death one day”, Alexander advised, and the dealer grimaced in confusion.“Thanks for the advice, sir, but I still stick with what I said. I had no hand in your losses.”Wanting to change how awkward the situation had become, Mathew stepped in.“That’s right. If the dealer is the cause of the mass failures, then that would mean his actions made Mr. Ferguson to lose as well, which is a grave sin”, Mathew said, trying to change the narrative. Alexander retracted his money and stuffed both hands in his pockets.“Yeah, that’s true, but there’s one issue with that statement,” the young multimillionaire said.“And what issue is that?” The last gambler asked.“The fact that th
Everything belongs to me THE ULTIMATE SACRIFICE
As a group, Alexander, Mr. Ferguson and Mathew all left the roulette table and headed for the jackpot slot machine. The dealer whose actions— albeit following orders from Mr. Ferguson— had been the reason everything started, was left behind at his workstation, the roulette table.He had no purpose tagging along because he was just a ploy used by Alexander to bring about the deal between the young multimillionaire and the man who co-owned the entire casino. Now that the deal had been made, all Alexander cared about was Mr. Ferguson and winning the bet, which would accomplish his original goal of making at least fifty million dollars from the casino.As for the last gambler, he felt stressed enough as is, and because of his continuous losses, he, just like the two previous gamblers, left the roulette table and went to gamble at some other game. “Hey, look at that. It’s Mr. Ferguson and he’s walking over to the jackpot slot machine”“Yes, that’s him, but who is that dashing-looking yo
Everything belongs to me MIRACLE
A couple of hours ago, immediately after leaving his room’s floor and walking into the Sam’s Hotel stairwell, Alexander, who had gotten the privacy of no one watching him, said:“System, I’m curious, but aside from the Clause feature, what other features do you have?” He wanted to learn about everything the system had to offer, because what use is having power when he doesn’t know how to use it to the best of his ability?From what he'd been able to do with just the basic functions the system had given him so far, he could only imagine what else was hidden and waiting to be discovered.A message from the system popped up, answering his question with a list of all the features he had accessed to, starting from the Clause Feature.One by one, Alexander went through the features, which was how he found out about the Skill Copy Feature that allowed him to copy the skills of anyone and all he had to do was outsmart them. After that was the Deal Feature, which was the one he had used on M
Everything belongs to me JACKPOT
[As Mr. Alexander Curry wishes][List of possessions to be sacrificed: 1. Vitality from Doctor Richard Evans. 2. Double Strength from Mr. Bob Murray and Mr. Josh Springfield. 3. Memories from Doctor Evans Richard, Mr. Bob Murray, Mr. Josh Springfield, Miss Rose Raymond, and Miss Julie Robert. 4. Driving skills from Mr. Adam Chase. 5. Card Counting and Memorization from Mr. Philip Shey][Measuring total possessions against the ultimate reward to be received][Progress: 5%… 12%… 20%…. Error]Alexander grimaced.He thought ‘Error? Why error? What happened, system?!’[Because the driving skill gotten from Mr. Adam Chase had undergone an upgrade, it can no longer be sacrificed for the Ultimate Sacrifice Feature] Alexander took a deep breath and sighed, grunting when he finished reading the message from the system. ‘Can you still go ahead with sacrificing the listed possessions without adding the driving skills I got from the Uber driver?’ Alexander asked.[As Mr. Alexander Curry wishes]
Everything belongs to me BETRAYAL
“You won?! What do you mean, you won?!” Mathew spat. The veins on his forehead and neck throbbing. Alexander looked at the man with a surprised face and asked “Is the air in here mixed with something or are you purposefully acting clueless?”“What did you just say to me, you brat?!” Mathew threatened. His fists clenched and vibrated as he stared down Alexander. “You were here when we made the bet and look at that” Alexander pointed at the jackpot slot machine with his thumb “I got all three lucky number sevens which if I’m not mistaken is the highest possible jackpot to get.”The young multimillionaire took a deep breath, adjusted his suit, and sighed.“So, I won’t waste my energy asking for what I’m owed. I think it’s time to bring me my money” Mathew laughed mockingly then he smacked his tongue“Bring you your money? Like hell we are! What you’re going to receive is a whole world of hurt—“ Mathew said, taking a step forward and acting like he was about to punch Alexander.However
Everything belongs to me MATHEW’S ASSIGNMENT
One of the security personnel got close enough and placed his hand on Alexander’s right shoulder.“If you don’t mind coming with us, we’ll escort you out of the premises.”Alexander looked at the man whose hand was on his person then he looked at all the other security men and realized that he was greatly outnumbered.“We would like to make this as peaceful as possible so don’t do anything stupid that you will end up regretting later” It would be a five versus one battle if for any reason a fight did break out and the thought of the outcome forced Alexander to behave himself.He had sacrificed the double strength he got from Bob and Josh which meant that he wasn’t strong enough to defend himself if all of them decided to attack him.What’s worse, all five security men had very painful-looking batons strapped around their waists so not only was he outnumbered but he was also out-armed.He could have stood a chance of evading their attacks but sadly even the combat memories he got from

What does a handsome specimen like him mean he doesn’t take pictures? It was a crime hiding his looks from the rest of the world, she thought. “Regardless, I’ll get you a phone with a great camera along with other things— you know what?” She said and Alexander raised a brow.“What?” He asked.“Since you don’t know what to get and aren’t picky about the specifications, why don’t I just choose my favorite phone for you?” She said and Alexander grimaced a pondering expression.“I guess that would make things a lot easier since you’re more knowledgeable than me. Alright then” Alexander said and Tina smiled.“Okay, follow me to the—“ she said and turned around but paused when she saw the manager of the store approach her.“Tina,” the manager said.“Manager. What are you doing here?” She asked.“That’s what I should be asking you,” the manager said and she grimaced.“What do you mean?” Tina asked.“I mean, why aren’t any sales reps going to meet the most important customers we’ve had in a
SPECIFICATIONS
Alexander entered the store and the door closed behind him. He quickly scanned the place, taking in everything and everyone, and noted how busy it was. With so many phones around, there was no doubt he’d be able to find the one he wanted.“So, which phone should I buy?” Alexander asked himself as he stuffed his hands into his pocket and began walking forward. He wasn’t in any way, shape, or form versed with gadgets, most especially phones, so he didn’t know which one would be good for him.As a matter of fact, the phone he was currently using was one he had bought without any specific requests to the sales rep, choosing it solely because it was the cheapest option within his extremely limited budget. Back then, when he went to the phone store, he had simply asked the sales rep for a smartphone that fit his budget, and they had given him that one.However, now that he had the money to afford any phone he could ever want, choosing was going to become a challenge as the illusion of cho
BOAT TAIL
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
FRIEND REQUEST
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
DELETED MESSAGE
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
GIVE ME YOUR PHONE
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,
VEIL
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
IRONIC
“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
