Hello, my name is Jason Lewis. I'm an orphan who lost his parents at a very young age and since then I've been struggling to make ends meet. I've suffered from all kinds of bullies but Dominic was the worst of them all. I wouldn't have survived through this semester if I hadn't met this mysterious gaming system. At first I had to just play games on this mysterious gaming app to earn money but as time went on it developed into something else. The games began coming into reality and I had to play at the expense of my life.As I remained huddled with Paulina my entire life story played before my eyes. The footsteps were approaching rapidly and there was nothing I could do at that moment. I couldn't run since Paulina was already unconscious. It would be very difficult to carry her up."System, do you know how to help me from this predicament?" I quickly asked the Enigmatic System but it didn't reply. There were no pop up notifications so I felt the system was telling me to do my missions
The next day I didn't go to school because I had to buy a house. After getting information on the different types of houses from a middleman I finally chose the house I wanted and was immediately taken to the site.I couldn't believe my eyes when I was brought into the mansion. It had a very wide environment with lawns, orchards, gardens and swimming pools. There was even a football pitch and basketball court. I was taken into the mansion and shown the various rooms in the mansion. All of them were very grand and magnificent. I almost couldn't believe this was reality.The basement had a gymnasium with all the gymnastic equipment installed within. Seeing all of them made my blood pump with adrenaline. I could finally train myself properly to beat Dominic who was a great player in basketball. Well, I wasn't a fan of basketball and preferred football to it. But in order to humiliate that bully and force him into revealing his true horrible nature I had to do this."This mansion is worth
In the afternoon I went to see Paulina who was now conscious. Although her expression was pale she seemed better now. At least there was no deathly aura around her. "You feel different," she sized me up and said. "There's something very peculiar about you right now." Can she tell? I asked myself in surprise as my facial muscles quivered. I replied with a smile, "Things are getting better for me." "You've won a million dollar award?" she asked me with her eyebrows raised. It's more than a million dollars, I told myself. Currently I have two hundred million dollars in my account and I am very wealthy. This made me happier and radiant than before when I had been poor without any source of income. "Something like that," I replied shortly. I wasn't ready to tell her that the Enigmatic System had rewarded me after completing a mission successfully. It was a secret I didn't feel I could share with anyone—not even Paulina. That secret might be so dangerous that both of us might die from i
"I think we should leave here immediately," I told Paulina as I looked around. I even went to the window to check if the gunmen had arrived."Why?" she asked me in surprise. I could even see an obvious look of disappointment on her face but now wasn't the time for that. Our lives were in danger and it was coming real quick.I couldn't help but wonder why the police station couldn't protect us even though there were cops there. Was Dominic that powerful? I then recalled what the detective had told me earlier about Dominic's father backing the government.I sighed as I said, "Would you believe me if I told you that I'm a seer?""No," she replied instantly. "There's no way I'm believing that sh*t."I shrugged as I said, "So much is going on but I'll tell you when the time comes. Believe me.""I believe you," she nodded thoughtfully. "We've been through so much together so I trust you with my entire life."I nodded sadly. I didn't know why but since the moment I received the system app. A
[HEALING ACTIVATED]I could see the holographic screen clearly even though my environment was very blurry and I couldn't make out anything.[Health: 50% RECOVERED]Instantly I felt myself being rejuvenated. I could even see my wounds heal visibly. I didn't know who was more startled between the ten gunmen and me. For some time I could see that they weren't able to move because of the shock."Let's get started," a smile played on my face as I clenched my fists very tightly. I still had 10% Rush Absorption left so I could pretty much take down the ten gunmen if I used my time well.Da! Da! Da!They all pulled their triggers at the same time, causing sparks to appear on the ground on which I'd been lying previously."Ah!" I had already rolled away, propping myself up with my left hand because my right hand was currently holding the gun which I had collected from one of the gunmen.Without wasting time I pulled the trigger while remaining in motion. I didn't want to be hit when my Rush Ab
Stephen wasn't giving up as he folded his hands and said, "Are you telling me or I should get the police to detain you till we've investigated how you walked out alright from the shooting spree of twenty gunmen?"Hearing that statement made me shudder as I wondered what that meant. What if the cops decided to torture me in order to bring out the truth? What if I couldn't bear the torture anymore and revealed everything? What would happen?I racked my brain for every possible lie but didn't succeed. It seemed my mind had become blank all of a sudden. This made me very frustrated as I clenched my fists."You're still not saying anything?" Stephen raised his eyebrows. "I've been waiting for minutes now."I opened my mo
I smiled warmly after seeing the new task. It wasn't hard at all and even aligned with what I wanted to do. I immediately helped Paulina out of her wheelchair and placed her on the sofa. She couldn't help but wince in pain during this process."You have to feel at home here," I said. "This mansion is all yours, Paulina."She couldn't believe her ears as she stared at me as if I was some monument. I couldn't help but ask what the matter was and she quickly replied, "You became a multi-millionaire in a space of three days or so."I couldn't help but chuckle, "It's related to something mysterious which I'm trying to figure out. Though what I do is very dangerous, I get high rewards."For example Rush Absorption, Luck, and Heal, I added within myself as I stared into Paulina's eyes. Her blue eyes at this moment were hypnotic, drawing me in. I seemed to drown in them for moments, my face coming closer to her. But I immediately withdrew and said, "Ugh...my bad.""What?" she asked me with he
After some minutes the Enigmatic System responded.[DO NOT EMBARRASS THE SYSTEM. I AM NOT A CHEF]My facial muscles twitched but I wasn't ready to give up. I sighed and said, "That was such a small request for one hundred million dollars. Since you're incompetent and incapable I might as well use the money to purchase a robot with artificial intelligence which can do just that."I immediately added, "I think I saw that robot when heading here."[DEAL. DO YOU WANT TO PROCEED WITH THE TRANSACTION?][YES OR NO]I immediately chose yes and instantly another notification popped up.<
