Jason and the Enigmatic System Chapter 209: Contract
I kept silent for several minutes, my gaze fixed on Stephen whose expression had become indifferent as usual. I watched him wear his glasses and put his hair into place before reaching out my hand to wipe the beads of sweat on my forehead."Why did you guys keep this secret from me for a long period of time?" I couldn't help but ask Stephen. My tone was very much unpleasant as if I'd been scammed."It was to protect ourselves," Stephen replied."From what?" I couldn't help but ask in annoyance. "You were a player for God knows how long. What kind of protection wouldn't you be able to offer her?""You won't understand," Stephen. "Staying hidden was what we always did after escaping from the presidential villa.""And you think you haven't been noticed?" I asked Stephen."Noticed?" Stephen raised his eyebrows. "Are you talking about the Wade family being exposed to the government? I erased any traces pointing to me. The lawyer I employed would also hide my identity.""You..." I wanted to
Jason and the Enigmatic System Chapter 210: I am the Team Leader
We were still standing when Paulina carried a tray of food to the dining table. The aroma was so alluring that I momentarily forgot what I wanted to say to Stephen. As usual, Paulina had prepared another delicious food."Why are you guys standing like that?" Paulina asked us, her eyes narrowing suspiciously."It's nothing," both of us replied at the same time but our expressions were different. I was smiling while Stephen was expressionless."Are you sure?" Paulina asked as she sized the both of us up. "You guys don't look okay.""What? Come on!" I said as I parted Stephen's back. "Aren't we okay, buddy?"Stephen remained silent for some time before saying, "We're okay."He didn't even flash a smile and if it was someone who didn't know him for his indifferent expression they would already guess something was wrong."Alright then," Paulina didn't seem to mind as she invited us to the dining table. "You guys should come and have something to eat. It has been a long day."Silently we ma
Jason and the Enigmatic System Chapter 211: Join My Team
After hearing that Golden Buddha was actually a member of my team Stephen couldn't help but open his mouth at that moment. He had been silent all this while as if expecting me to mention something related to Paulina's past. Paulina on the other hand was shocked after hearing the revelation. She hadn't been there to experience everything I said but she was able to imagine how tough the situation had been back then.Another reason Paulina could become so shocked was because she had actually interacted with the man before. She had been around back then when the man had attacked us. He was the same man whom I'd saved from the armed robbers once!"You mean this same Golden Buddha was the one who attacked you?" Paulina didn't seem to believe her ears."Yeah," I replied. "I wonder what would have happened if the battle had been allowed to continue. I believe he's not weaker than me."There was silence for some time before Stephen spoke, "Why didn't you tell us that you've already created a t
Jason and the Enigmatic System Chapter 212: Breached Gates
After hearing that Paulina and Stephen were joining my team in the virtual reality I was very happy because of two reasons. First, I would have two close people in the real world as teammates in the virtual reality. This would make Golden Buddha and the rest watch their steps and not dare provoke me again. The second reason was because I would be able to remove the effect of the contract Stephen put on me. By creating a rule which stated that team members could not create contracts to bind the team leader, I would be able to break the contract and become free again.Stephen had not expected I would do something as shameless as this but he soon began to realize what would happen. I could see enlightenment in his eyes as he clenched his fists tightly. Well, there was nothing he was going to do again. He had agreed to join my team in front of Paulina and that was it. If he wanted to break his promise then he would risk making Paulina feel bad. And that wasn't what he wanted.I immediatel
Jason and the Enigmatic System Chapter 213: Determination
After Stephen joined Breached Gates the first thing I did was to add another rule which was highly beneficial to me. It stated that no future or existing contract with teammates would be able to bind me. Seeing the rule being displayed on the Breached Gates interface I mentally clicked yes.Instantly a notification popped up in the air, causing my eyebrows to crease slightly.[CONTRACTS CANNOT BE COMPLETELY NULLIFIED. PENALTIES CAN ONLY BE REDUCED TO MINUTENESS]Although the notification wasn't what I expected it still made Stephen deepen his glare at me. At least I wouldn't have to suffer the punishment of having half of my level removed if I ever broke the contract. Nobody would imagine how good I felt despite the full effect of the rule not taking place."All the rules seem to be in your favor," Paulina said. "It seems your teammates are highly dangerous.""Yes," I replied instantly. "They're very dangerous and have nursed the idea of killing me. Except for Red Witch, the others do
Jason and the Enigmatic System Chapter 214: Blissful Plan
After the lunch, Stephen announced that he was leaving. He had so many things to catch up on and there was no more time. Nudging his glasses he turned around to leave."Take care, Steve," Paulina said, causing him to turn back slightly. There was a complicated emotion in Stephen's eyes, something I had never seen before."Sure," he nodded and turned to look at me. I could tell that he was asking me not to mention what he had told me earlier to Paulina.I nodded slowly as I said, "Take care, Stephen. You can come up with several contingency plans during your free time.""Believe me," Stephen wasn't smiling. "I already have a contingency plan for every scenario.""Do not slack off in your training," I said."I will come often to spar with you," Stephen said. "Get stronger than me so that you can push me beyond my limit."I smiled as I secretly clenched my fists tightly, "Don't worry. I'll become so strong that you'd be crushed by my gaze."And that was the truth. I wasn't just bluffing
Jason and the Enigmatic System Chapter 215: The Enigmatic System's Plight
After asking the Enigmatic System about the ring it suddenly fell silent for some moments. I didn't know why it didn't respond to me as usual and it bothered me. I even began thinking that something bad had really happened to the Enigmatic System. Maybe the Creator System which had the consciousness of the systems' creator had decided to place a restriction on the Enigmatic System for behaving more and more like a human instead of the system it was expected to be.I'd watched a cyberpunk movie and there was this artificial intelligence which evolved beyond how it was created. It started becoming more and more like a human being, alarming the creators. In order to prevent the artificial intelligence from gaining sentience and toppling the authority of humans, they decided to destroy it. The artificial intelligence fought a good battle but it could not outmatch humans. With regrets, it parted with the woman it loved as it was shut down by the scientists who created it. They later had th
Jason and the Enigmatic System Chapter 216: Buying on Credit
After some moments of silence, the Enigmatic System finally spoke. His voice was no longer sad and it had resumed the usual emotionlessness.[I HAVE A RING WHICH MATCHES YOUR DESCRIPTION BUT IT IS REALLY COSTLY]"Costly?" I couldn't help but raise my eyebrows. "How costly?"[IT IS 5,000 POINTS]"Huh?" I was surprised after hearing that. The Enigmatic System usually made use of coins but now it had switched to points. What was really happening?I had only come across the term, 'points', from Stephen Wale. Back then I'd asked him why he wasn't wealthy and he had told me that his system uses points instead of coins. I'd come across other players and they were not as wealthy as I was. This was because their systems made use of points which could not be converted to real money like the virtual coins the Enigmatic System made use of.[WELL, THERE IS THIS NEW POLICY THAT BANS SYSTEMS FROM USING COINS. WE CAN ALL ONLY USE POINTS FROM NOW ON]"So that's another reason you were punished by that
