But it was different now.The future Aiden could only dream of seemed feasible now.That was why he woke up with renewed vigor and determination to make sure he makes it. But he had to progress with this main quest that was before him. Which meant that he needed to take his gym sessions more seriously."I should consider learning how to throw effective blows."He mumbled to himself as he jogged down the street in the early hours of the day before dawn.[Emergency Quest Generated]He grinned as he came to an abrupt stop.'Finally, another chance.'[Emergence quest]> A car of smugglers is being pursued by the police. Do anything to slow down the smugglers' car.> Quest reward: +4 blue cards, +1 green cards, +7 stat points.> Quest Failure: You will be hit by a car.> This Quest has a time limit: 00:00:44:58"Ah..."'This system is always finding every opportunity to kill me huh.'Aiden stared to his front, he had gotten to the end of the street alley and that end connected him to the m
Aiden after the successful morning was here again... in the gym but this time a different section."I want to learn boxing.""You want to learn boxing... you." The boxing coach looked at Aiden sizing him up with his gaze at the same time mocking his sheepish confidence. To him Aiden was clearly like a high schooler who got bullied and wanted to learn to fight in order to fight back– the entire idea of that feel wasn't a bad thing. But Aiden isn't an high schooler, the fact that he looked that way to the gym instructor wasn't a good first impression."You got money?""How much is the subscription fee?""three hundred for sign up one fifty consequent month or you can just do a thousand for the year.""Coach are you really going to..." One of the boxers around whispered from behind the coach."Shut up," The Coach whispered back."But coach, look at this guy, it'd probably take five years to get him in shape.""Hey don't talk about a man like that, it's rude. He looks like he's got money.
Aiden's punch folded into the dark-skinned guy's defense.Defense?That was not enough to stop the monstrous force that Aiden pulled with that punch as if he was being attacked by an hurricane, the dark-skinned guy blew out of the ring slamming on the brick wall of the gym and falling to the ground.The cheering crowd went silent in a dot. And everything was like there was never noise. Even Athena couldn't help her widened eyes."Well... that's what happen when you judge a book by it's cover. Give me my wins..." The coach said to the guy next to him with a big smile."Coach what?" Another boxer, shocked at the coach asking for betting money inquired."What? I put a hundred on the newbie.""WHAT?!"All of them choruses together as the coach collected his wins with a big wide smile. The next minute everyone had totally forgotten that Gerb was knocked out of the ring and even passed out...."Wow... that was a hell of a punch.""Ha ha... I didn't even know how that came through. I just f
"Come to think of it. If I get a weapon like a sword that means I don't have to stress myself. I can be a good swordsman without actually learning thanks to that weapon Attunition skill." Aiden rubbed his chin as he came to this realization.He put the bat into his inventory as the bus came....Several minutes later Aiden got off the bus but not at the usual location, instead he was heading to a supposedly traumatizing scene. He reached the alley where he was attacked and tried to sort out the picture of each of those guys but he still couldn't figure it out."Damn, this is going to be hard." He muttered as he scratched his head and looked around. He walked further looking for closed alleys where delinquents would be hanging out.After a while of searching he finally found one but in that regard the system greeted him with another emergency quest.[Emergency Quest]> Teach the high school delinquents a lesson and make them realize smoking is bad, they should stay more in school and l
"Excuse me?" Aiden turned back with a puzzled expression trying to figure out who the person is and why that kind of question."Tsch..." The stranger clicked his tongue and glared at Aiden.Killing intent was written all over his face and Aiden couldn't understand why. Why a strange will suddenly walk up to him and want to kill him.While still amid that thought, the stranger dashed towards Aiden, pulling out a knife from his pocket.[Danger detected][Emergency quest generated]> Protect yourself from strangers and find out why they want you dead.> Quest reward: +5 blue cards> Quest failure: Possibly death."Humongous!!"[You are using the skill 'Humongous']Aiden collided with the guy and punch him in the face, at the same time the knife grazed him. The boy was thrown away by the impact of Aiden's punch, he tumbled on the floor, rolling away but soon came to a stop.Aiden immediately went to him and grabbed the collar of his chest.[You are using skill 'Straight Jab']Pow pow pow

Aiden's mouth opened wide as the system displayed a long list of holographic messages in front of his eyes.He wasn't expecting so much.'I guess since I defeated one of the gang, it automatically counts for a mission completion?

Aiden's eyes sparkled with excitement as he began to unlock the cards.[Revealing +10 blue cards]'...ten...'The number was almost unreal to him, so many quest rewards just from completing the main quest.[You have gained 100 dollars][You have gained 100 dollars][You have gained 100 dollars][You have gained the skill 'Straight kick'][You have gained 100 dollars][You have gained 100 dollars][You have gained 100 dollars
'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.
