'I don't even know anyone that might want to see me.' Aiden reached the park where a broad-shouldered man with a rough face was sitting, he was wearing a black suit with a white inner shirt and a black tie. And he sat so formally that Aiden probably thought he was here for an interview.However, he looked more like a thug who has changed his ways than a job seeker."Excuse me, how can I help you?" Aiden bowed shortly, greeting the man as he approached him."Hm, you must beg Aiden.""Uh? How do you...?" Aiden was purely confused.The man stood up and tapped his shoulders, "A job well done from the other time."Aiden still had that puzzled expression, both his brows were lifting upwards as he tried to make sense of the situation."I'm sorry. I don't quite understand you.""Take"The man handed him a business card. Aiden's mouth widened as he saw the business card.He was just a mid-sales manager in some local company that distributes cosmetics but he was in the world of business and sa
Aiden stood straight with his arms glued to his side and his eyes glaring downward as he awaited the chairman."You can sit down, young man" The chairman's flat voice with a reassuring tone filled the living room."Ah, sir please it is really okay for me to stand up," Aiden replied with a respectful tone, bowing his head to avoid unnecessary eye contact."So, you know my daughter right?""Your daughter?"'Ah shit, is Athena the daughter of...'"Yes, my daughter, Trisha whom you saved from the hands of some hoodlums." The man restated his words but with more expansion.Aiden paused his wilding thoughts."Trisha?"This moment felt so devastating for him as he desperately wanted to remember but was damn sure he had never heard a name like that before. But someone he saved.'...I did save a lot of people... maybe it is one of them?' Aiden tried to run facial recognition and recollection on all the people he has met and saved within the time he activated the system and now."You look lost.
"Here, this is it."Hallandale, the head of security who had picked Aiden up before said as he handed him the keys to a Maybach."Wow..." Aiden stared at the car in front of him, speechless. He wasn't being gifted the car, that was clear but he was holding custody of the car as long as he will be the chairman's daughter's chauffeur and bodyguard.Aiden couldn't take his eyes off the car. Its front was dominated by a massive grille, a statement of power and elegance.The classic emblem of the Maybach brand sat proudly in the center, surrounded by a chrome border that sparkled in the sunlight.As Aiden's eyes traced their way along the car's body, he couldn't help but fancy the curves and contours. The cabin sat snugly between the wide, swooping rear fenders, with a high beltline that gave the car a sense of weight and presence.Those massive wheels gleamed with polished metal. Each one was a work of art, with intricate designs etched into the spokes and elegant details around the rims.
Beep beepbeep beepbeep beepBy 5:00 AM, the new alarm Aiden bought on his way home, yesterday night was already screaming in his head so loudly that his dream at that moment was disrupted. And as much as he wanted to continue that sleep because yesterday was a long day.He had to get up, today was after all his first day of work."my profile"[Host Profile]Name: AidenHP: 1000/1000Class: nilLevel: 07[Skills]- Weapon Attunition lv.5- Straight Jab lv.2- Straight Kick lv.1- Spinning 540 kick lv.1[Stats]Strength: 13Speed: 5Vitality: 10Mental Fortitude: 20Intelligence: 23Dexterity: 5Available Stat points: 20Aiden had made a habit of checking his status every time he woke up in the morning.

"Aiden! Aiden!!" His grandpa ran into the home shouting. Aiden was still trying to sort loads of suits he now has thanks to Trisha, she just wouldn't stop going to the fashion mall– it was almost becoming a daily routine every time they went out.Aiden, hearing his grandfather's voice, ran out of his room."Pa?!! Is something wrong?!" He exclaimed as he came out."Son, your grandmother! your-r..." The man was panting so heavily, that it was difficult to catch his breath."Pa, will you calm down? Calm down okay." Aiden patted his back as he spoke. "You can speak gently now." He said after the old man seems to have calmed down."Your grandmother, the doctors say she's starting the surgery tomorrow. They said they will place her on pre-surgery monitoring and preparation for tonight, then tomorrow they will do the surgery!!""Yay!! Wow!!!" Aiden tried his best at that jubilation but he sucked at it. He didn't know how to feign one. This was news he was expecting since he started working f
Aiden wore a deep blue suit, with a white collar shirt and a black tie. After he was done dressing he was looking like the son of a rich company man himself. But that was not all.Due to the changes in his stat, his body was beginning to change."Did I used to be so thick..." He wondered to himself as he felt the suit pants and even the jacket hug him tight and somehow it was like even the contours of his biceps and triceps were visible.He loosened the button of the jacket to free the tightness, took the car keys, and head out....The next he was in front of the chairman's house as he should be, but this time it was not Hallan that welcomed him. It was some blond-haired guy, looking mean. Aiden had seen him a few times since he started working but that's just it."Hey, Unc... looking so good, as usual." The young lady complimented him as she entered the car.Aiden looked up at the weather. He wasn't the type to watch the weather forecast before leaving home but he wished he had this
"What?" Aiden was shocked. He was about to get out of the car when he saw them pour out.They were all in black suits, holding dangerous weapons, machetes, bats, metal rods, and objects that could smash his head to bits.Immediately Aiden locked the car and everything but that was not enough to stop him.SMASH! SMASH!! SMASH!!!They went hard on him and began to thrash his car with the weapons they had.Clatter!With little to no effort, both the windscreen and all the glasses of the car shattered and he was forcefully dragged out through the window, with the broken glasses that were still stuck in the window frame tearing his skin.Not that they cared about that, as Aiden was dragged out and beaten as he had never experienced. This was little and could not be compared to the beating he got after his breakup.These people came hard at him with bats and rods, not giving him a space to breathe but all of a sudden...[Automatically using skill 'Quick legs']Aiden's leg moved before he co
"It's been over an hour, could it be because of his grandmother's surgery?" Trisha mumbled as she waited in front of her school gate for Aiden to arrive.But it had been an hour but she had not caught a glimpse of him. As much as she was getting worried about him she also couldn't wait to go home. And for Trisha who was always looking for a way to escape the heavy surveillance, it belatedly struck her that this was a chance to be a menace.'Well, don't blame Unc... I waited.' She grinned as she walked forward, intending to find her own way home while playing along the streets and roads.'I should take a bus too... damn, I've always wanted to know what it feels like to take a bus.' Her eyes sparkled as she went along....The gangs laughed at Aiden who was looking all renewed and refreshed despite being washed with blood all over.His hands were hidden behind his back but as he brought it out was a silver-colored baseball bat, different from the one they had, metallic and seemed like i
