Adams was driving the car at an extremely high speed, above the maximum limit. His head hurt and his heart ached.

He never had a smooth life but at the moment all he wanted was to return from five years ago, before he met Samantha and restart his life.

It couldn't have been a coincidence for Lorenzo and Aleric's grandfather to be people in the picture right? Tsk! His entire life has been controlled by someone.

First, his Mother, his father, and now, the damn system has completely taken over his life.

That aside, he now has to be extra protective whenever he goes out as there are people after his life.

All Adams wanted at the moment was to disappear from this world and never come back. He continued drinking and did not stop on the break even when he was approaching the bridge.

[System detects an unusual fluctuation of emotions. The system suggests you calm down and think about the future and not the past.]

Adams didn't. That's it. His life won't be controlled by anyone again. He owns h

Adams did not know when or why Samantha was gaming. For all he knew, Samantha hated video games and despised them whenever he decided to have some fun by playing them at home while they were still together. Adams wondered why he was surprised. The system must probably be behind it.{Damn! That looks ugly! Why would someone dress a cute guy like that? This hero looks like the man I had a nightstand with. Don't worry, I'll dress you up perfectly.}It was another voice that Adams was familiar with, Erica. What the hell? Adams is astonished.

    (System, I want this character to be mine alone. Give me some privacy with my MAN)[System is processing your request.]Samantha couldn't wait to get their response. She was pissed by Erica and her words. Samantha was feeling agitated. She did not know why Erica's words got on her nerves so much. Perhaps it was because Adams had been unwilling to meet or see her over the past few weeks of trying to approach it. It was even worse that his secretary had feelings for him and would never let her meet up with Adams. Samantha believed that if she was given a chance with Adams, he'd fall for her just like before.

    With only a little time left, Adams knew he had to be fast. He had exhausted his love points and only had ten love flowers. If he doesn't act quickly, he'll be trapped in this game for the next seven days. Adams couldn't imagine that happening. Although this place is a dream world, he didn't plan to spend any more time here. "You saved me." Princess Snow's voice was meek. A little hoarse from having tried to fight off the bad guys earlier. "It's fine. I hope you're okay!" It was a kind gesture yet it made Snow's heart flutter in her chest. This character is so good-looking. Is this how good-looking the owner is in real life? Snow smiled coyly. "I... I'm okay. Thank you, if not for you, my hard work would have been stolen. I owe you a lot." She was shy. Snow did not dare hold his gaze again.

    "You're finally awake!" Aleric exclaimed. He was close to tears. This friend of his had kept him worried for hours. He was afraid like the doctors have expressed, he won't make it. Luckily, Adams is a fighter who won't give up on his life just like that.Adams Smith looked around the place. He is surrounded by white walls. He remembered the feeling of waking up and seeing himself dressed in a hospital gown.Streams of events soon flooded his mind. He recalled he attempted to commit suicide. That was insane since he cherished his life way more than anything else in the world. Why did he attempt self-homicide? It was abnormal and he couldn't point a finger at the reason why."Yeah, I am awake." His voice was surprisingly soothing, not a bit like that of someone who has been in a coma for the past seven hours."Great, I'll call the doctor." Aleric rang the bell. His hair was disheveled and his suit was unkempt. It was clear how worried he was."How long have I been here?" "Seven long ho

    There was a knock on the door. A luxurious food tray was pushed inside. There was a red velvet cake in the middle of the platter. The trolley was pushed in by a man in a waiter's uniform. Seraphina is surprised to see the red cake. She'd ordered a chocolate and banana layer cake. She wasn't expecting it to be covered in red velvet icing sugar."Here's your order," the delivery guy bowed. He turned around and hurriedly left. He was putting on his uniform and a face mask."It was sugar-coated with red? That's weird." She laughed. "Anyways, since it's still not midnight yet, there's still time to celebrate your Big 30. Congratulations on successfully reaching adulthood."CLAP!!CLAP!!CLAP!!Adams could only shake his head in despair. The people surrounding him are either dangerous or drama queens.

Adams took a breather."Brother, did you hear that sound? I think there's someone here!" "How's that possible?" loud footsteps echoed. Adams gestured for Aiden to remain calm. They were both standing there. Adams sucked in a deep breath.Aiden was staring at him."Activate Invisibility Mode." Aiden silently gestured at him. Adams paused for a while. He soon realized what Aiden meant. He recalled Aiden had once spoken about invisibility pills but he didn't fully listen to him when he was talking.Isn't there supposed to be a pill that needs to be swallowed before one can become invisible? Adams was slightly confused."You have already activated A Master's System.

    Adams felt a wave of disgust and horror wash over him as he realized the gruesome contents of the box.Preserved human genitals? What kind of sick and twisted operation was going on here?He quickly looked away, feeling sick to his stomach. Aiden, who couldn't understand why Adams' expression suddenly became so ugly frowned.“What's wrong?" He probed. He tried looking into the box but couldn't see anything.“Everything here is wrong." Adams turned to look at Aiden.“This box… it contains human body parts.”Aiden gasped in shock. What? Human body parts? For what? Is there something like an occult going on here? Adams knew they had to act fast and report this to the authorities. This was not something he could handle on his own. He quickly deactivated X-ray Vision Mode and turned to Aiden, his expression serious."We need to get out of here and call the police. This is beyond anything we can handle," Adams said, his voice filled with urgency.Aiden nodded in agreement, his face pale w

    It was a small patch of skin, tinged a sickly grey, nestled between the creature's emerald scales. Baxter knelt beside the massive beast, his heart racing at the thought of what he had to do. “You’ve got this,” he murmured to himself, bracing for the final confrontation. Suppressing the lingering pain from the creature’s earlier attack, he focused all his remaining energy into his hands, the crackling electricity intensifying until it vibrated in the air around him. With a deep breath, Baxter pressed his palm against the discolored patch on the Chimera’s neck and unleashed a concentrated bolt of electricity. The moment it made contact, the air around him shattered with a brilliant blinding light. The Chimera shuddered violently. Its body convulsed as arcs of electricity coursed through it, illuminating the veins of energy visible beneath its scaled skin. Baxter’s eyes widened in disbelief as the creature’s muscles tensed, twitching uncontrollably before suddenly going still. Th

    Baxter's eyes darted around, trying to pierce through the mist and identify the approaching threat. The forest was eerily silent now, save for the occasional snap of a twig or rustle of leaves. "Okay, Bax," he muttered to himself, electricity crackling between his fingers. "You've got this. Just stay calm and—" A blood-curdling screech cut through the air, sending chills down Baxter's spine. He whirled around, just in time to see a massive, bat-like creature swooping down from the canopy above. Its wingspan was easily fifteen feet, and its leathery wings ended in razor-sharp claws. A long, serpentine neck extended from its body, crowned by a head that was a nightmarish fusion of bat and reptile. Rows of needle-like teeth glinted in its gaping maw as it dived--- --bombed towards Baxter, its talons outstretched and ready to rend flesh from bone. Baxter's newly upgraded reflexes kicked in once again. He dove to the side, rolling across the forest floor as the creature's claws raked th

    Baxter's newly enhanced reflexes kicked in, and he rolled to the side with surprising speed, narrowly avoiding the acidic projectile. The glob splattered against the floor, eating through the material with a sickening hiss."Holy shit," Baxter breathed, marveling at his newfound agility. But there was no time to celebrate. The Slime Beast was already preparing another attack.Instinctively, Baxter raised his hand, willing some kind of defense into existence. To his astonishment, a shimmering barrier of energy materialized in front of him, just as the creature launched another acidic glob. The projectile splashed harmlessly against the barrier, dissipating into harmless droplets."Energy Manipulation, huh?" Baxter muttered, a grin spreading across his face. "Let's see what else I can do."He focused his mind, channeling the strange new energy coursing through his body. A ball of crackling blue light formed in his palm, growing larger as he concentrated. With a grunt of effort, Baxter h

    Baxter Holmes groaned as consciousness slowly returned to him. His head throbbed, and his body felt like it had been hit by a truck. He blinked, trying to clear his vision, only to find himself in a strange, dimly lit room. "What the hell?" he muttered, pushing himself up to a sitting position. The last thing he remembered was being in bed with Amber, Jasmine, and Tiffany, their bodies intertwined in a passionate tangle. How did he end up here? Suddenly, a translucent blue screen materialized in front of him, startling Baxter so badly that he fell back onto his elbows. [Welcome, Baxter Holmes, to the HQ Virtual Game System. You have successfully activated NeuroSpark System] "The HQ… what now?" Baxter asked, his voice hoarse and confused. [System initialization complete.

    Erica's eyes fluttered open, and she found herself standing in a desolate, digital landscape. The air was thick with an eerie, pulsing energy that seemed to seep into her very being. She looked around, and a sense of déjà vu washed over her. The terrain, the sky, the very code that streamed through the air... it was all so familiar. As she took her first steps, the ground beneath her feet seemed to shift and writhe, like a living thing. Erica's stomach lurched, and she felt a wave of disorientation wash over her. She stumbled, her hands grasping for something, anything, to steady herself. The system's interface materialized before her, a cold presence that seemed to regard her with a mixture of curiosity and contempt. Erica's eyes scanned the lines of codes, her brows furrowing with each column she looked at. The realization of why the codes looked so familiar to her was like a slap in the face, leaving her breathless and stunned. The system... was almost identical to the game she

    Adams' advanced combat implant kicked into overdrive, flooding his system with heightened reflexes and tactical data. He darted between Oblivion's legs, striking at joints and weak points with precision. Each blow elicited another shriek of pain from the monstrous AI. But Oblivion was far from defeated. Its stinger lashed out with lightning speed, catching Adams off guard. He felt a searing pain in his shoulder as the venomous barb grazed him. [Warning: Toxin detected. Implementing countermeasures,] the system alerted Adams as it began working to neutralize the poison. Adams gritted his teeth against the pain and focused on his next move. He knew he couldn't let up now, or Oblivion would gain the upper hand. "System, activate Overdrive Mode!" Adams commanded. [Overdrive Mode activated.

    Meanwhile, at Adams's end; Adams caught his breath, he couldn't help but feel a sense of pride and accomplishment. He had overcome the entity and completed the task, earning himself a substantial amount of credits and experience points. But, as he was about to leave the area, he was suddenly confronted by a figure that made his blood run cold. [Detecting Something Dangerous] Adam's reminder bell rang in his head, however, he had to maintain his steeze and did not flinch. {Hello, Adams Smith,} the figure said, its voice like a gentle breeze on a summer day, but with an underlying tone of danger. {I've been watching you, and I must say, I'm impressed. You're quite resourceful and determined.} Adams turned to face the figure, and his eyes widened as he took in its appearance. It was a woman with long, flowing hair and piercing green eyes. She was dressed in an elegant white gown, and her presence seemed to radiate an aura of intelligence and power. "Who are you?" Adams asked
