MASON WILLIAMS AND THE CELESTIAL SYSTEM Auction Night
"Tonight?" "Yes," Haley replied. "For some reason, Mom received an anonymous invitation to the private Auction for tonight." "How's mom going to get the necklace when the World Bank is undergoing maintenance?" Mason asked, remembering that his mother had told him their family assets had been temporarily frozen until next week. "Mom is not going to attend the Auction; rather, she is meeting with the president to resolve the issues. Leaving the both of us to attend the event," Haley replied, waving the invitation card at Mason. "We are attending the auction?" Haley nodded. "I want to see who buys the necklace so we can buy it back when the issues with the World Bank are resolved," Haley said. Mason plans on going to the Auction alone, but Haley already has the card, and he can't disclose the system identity to her or any person, so he has to allow her to tag along. Mason smiled. "Don't worry the necklace is coming back to our family," he said. "When are we leaving?" "The aucti
MASON WILLIAMS AND THE CELESTIAL SYSTEM Two Million Dollar Necklace
Mason stared at the transparent glass separating him from the Sun And Moon necklace; its delicate design didn't fail to amaze him. The necklace was precise as it was drawn in his mother's book; the only difference was the lively color protruding from its rareness. The audience muttered among themselves, apparently stunned by the item in front of them. The Host picks up the mic with a chronic smile wandering on his face. "This rare beauty is one of a kind and would be going home with the highest bidder." He cleared his throat, gazing into the impatient crowd hungry to start the bid."For the Sun and the Moon necklace, we have an opening bid of a hundred million dollars. Can I hear a hundred million?""Hundred Million," Jacob's voice soared through the room, earning the stunning gaze of the crowd. Natalia who sat beside him wore a proudious smile relaxing in her seat, obviously enjoying the attention she was receiving."Can we have a Hundreds and fifty-""One hundred and fifty million,
MASON WILLIAMS AND THE CELESTIAL SYSTEM How are you?
Mason turned to Jacob, who had Natalia tangled by his side. He could easily see the facade of Jacob's smile, making Mason twitch with satisfaction."Good evening Mr?" Jacob asked, staring at Mason's masked face.Mason hesitated, glancing at Jacobs, who held out his hand for a shake. Mason felt his sister's eyes, urging him to respond as other people stared at them."Williams," Mason replied, shifting his eyes to Natalia, who was trying to look under his mask. "Mr.Williams, it is a pleasure meeting you," Jacob said with an evident smile, which Mason didn't reciprocate. “Are you somehow related to the Williams family?”Jacobs asked curiously.Mason was quiet but nodded, making Jacobs furrow his brows in surprise.Jacob shifted his gaze to Haley. "This must be your wife or girlfriend," he added."He is my brother," Haley replied, removing her mask. Jacob's eyes almost popped out of his socket as he stared at the lady in front of her."M…Mrs. Haley!" Jacob stuttered, making Mason wrinkle
MASON WILLIAMS AND THE CELESTIAL SYSTEM Natalia's Request
With Mason's black card, the payment instantly went through, earning the respect of the staff attending to him. After processing the document, Mason handed the briefcase to Haley and went to the private restroom. When he was sure, no one was with him. The hologram immediately appeared before him, and a congratulations message was displayed on the transparent screen.[Congratulations, Mason Williams, you have completed your first task and have been awarded five celestial points. More Missions will be available for you to complete for now. Enjoy the power of the celestial system]Mason smiled, glancing at his state and his achievements so far, from being a poor man to being a billionaire. It was indeed a tremendous change. The new notification that popped up on the hologram with a warning signal made Mason drag his gaze away from the bathroom mirror.[Threat alarm: No details][Skills: Driving skill required] Mason read the message, but the system didn't provide further details on th
MASON WILLIAMS AND THE CELESTIAL SYSTEM Black Sedan
The camera and the interviewer faded out of sight as Mason drove away from the premises. It was his first time grabbing the media's attention, but it felt familiar because all they did was intrude and pry into someone's life just to have something that would boost their fame and destroy the lives of those they pry upon. It was a feeling Mason had gone through county time on campus. "What are you thinking about?" Haley asked when Mason scoffed without saying anything. He glanced at his sister, whose eyes panned at the road, and even when she wore an expressionless face, he could tell she wasn't okay, and the words of those people ran through her mind. "Nothing," she replied, taking the next turn. "How are you okay?" he asked, glancing in her direction. Haley huffed, nodding her head. "I'm fine," she replied with an angry tone. Mason didn't say anything and waited for her to speak. "Can you believe those people!" Haley exclaimed, with her face wrinkled into a frown. "How dare they
MASON WILLIAMS AND THE CELESTIAL SYSTEM Haley Secret
After a few minutes, Mason arrived at the Williams Private District, and the image of the mansion came into view. He glanced at his sister, who was now calm but awfully quiet, making him wonder what was going through her head."Are you sure you're okay?" Mason asked for the thousand times, and without a reply, Haley nodded her head, glancing outside the windshield where countless bullets tried to penetrate but couldn't. He guessed she might still be processing the thought of the incident that still lingered in her mind. Mason heaved a sigh; if he had not acquired those legendary driving skills, only God knows what would have become of them as those thugs were not ready to let them go but kept shooting at the windshield even when the bullet couldn't penetrate.Mason shook off the thought. "We should not tell Mom," Mason mumbled, clearing his throat. Informing their mother would cause her unnecessary worries, and it was the last thing he wanted to do. If he had gone to the auction alon
MASON WILLIAMS AND THE CELESTIAL SYSTEM Viper Gang
Mason made his way into his bedroom, shutting the door behind him. He took off his tie and sank into the comfort of the bed. His eyes lingered on the ceiling, but the thought of the incident clouded his mind. If those guys were able to send two sedans with armed men to kill them without the fear of getting caught, it means they are dangerous and might have planned to come after Haley again. He needed to find those bastards and do something about it, but Maon had no idea where to start. Even the police were unable to identify who those men were.'The Celestial System,' the thought crawled into his mind. He remembers Emoji telling him the system identifies possible threats; maybe it can also identify who those men were.Mason crawls into a sitting position. "Emoji," he muttered, and after a few seconds, Emoji appeared beside him, wearing his usual facial expression."Seems like you're alive," Emoji beamed, earning a frown from Mason. Was he expecting me to be dead? "You could have war
MASON WILLIAMS AND THE CELESTIAL SYSTEM Art Studio
Once it was 6 a.m., Mason got up from his bed and entered his bathroom. After twenty minutes, he exited and entered his walk-in wardrobes. He wore casual clothes since he wasn't going to work or school. After glancing through his clothes for a few seconds, Mason settled for a fitted black sleeve shirt, which he folded to his elbow length, assisted by the Vacheron Constantin watch adorning his wrist. His shirt was toked in his back trousers, matching his black shoes. After glancing at his reflection, Mason made his way downstairs."Are you going on a date?" A tiny voice called behind him. Mason turned to see Helen and Sally trailing behind him. Helen ran into his embrace."Hello, princess," Mason smiled, ruffling her hair. "No, I'm not going on a date," he replied to her previous question. Helen furrowed her brows and assisted with a chuckle, shaking her head. "That is what they all say," she whispered, running away when Mason's eyes widened in surprise."Come back here you rascal,"

Unexpected Accident
“Come on, Haley, pick up the damn phone!” Mason muttered under his breath. His heart raced with every ring, and just like the thousand times before, the call dragged on and inevitably went to voicemail. The thought of her not answering gnawed at him, tightening the knot of anxiety in his stomach. Mason swiped his hand across the air. “Emoji,” he called, and the celestial system was displayed in front of him with emojis floating at the top right corner.“What can I do for you today?” Emoji asked, pulling Mason's gaze from the rearview mirror. The loud sirens, which had been soaring through the street, were still on his tail.The policeman, who had noticed the car zooming with a speed above the speed limit, stayed on his tail, waving for him to pull over, but Mason, who had limited time, was adamant about his instructions and stepped on the gas, prompting a full chase.Ignoring the cop, Mason turned to the emoji, “I want information on possible accidents around the city within this ti
The Attack
The sound of sirens reverberated through the busy streets. Pedestrians walking by averted their gaze to the military convoy. Drivers caught off guard by the unexpected traffic either exited their vehicles or craned their necks to catch a glimpse of the scene.“What is going on?” a young woman asked. Her brow furrowed in concern as she spotted more than a dozen militants moving towards the facility. Their stern expressions electrified the urgency of the moment."If there are a lot of soldiers on the road, it usually means something bad is happening," another person replied, their voice laced with anxiety as they watched the convoy of military vehicles rumble through.“That's true. I heard there was a robbery,” another added.“A robbery?! I thought this place was more secure than a bank!”Several gossip roamed through the onlookers as the military personnel cleared the path.Meanwhile, Mason and the Celestial Assassin noticed the traffic and decided to take a short detour into town. Ba
New Deal 2
The entire room fell silent and Mason turned to Miranda, who nodded before exiting the surveillance room. Outside the building, she wore a medical badge alongside a first aid kit then made her way toward the main gate. When Mr. Anthony's men noticed her presence, they raised their guns at her, prompting Mason to pick up his phone.“If a single scratch appears on her body, I'm pulling out of the deal and coming after you myself,” Mason warned, disconnecting the line before Mr. Anthony could respond.Caught off guard by the sudden threats, he quickly waved his hand, instructing his men to stand down.Without hesitation, Miranda approached the injured man with a first aid kit and worked to control the bleeding. Once she had finished, she helped the injured staff member back to the building while the others returned with the container housing the viruses.“Open the gate,” Mason instructed, turning to see the staff staring at him in shock.“Sir, are we really letting them go?” One of the c
New Deal
Except for the celestial assassin, the staff stared at Mason with eyes filled with astonishment. The facility negotiator, who was now standing at the corner of the room, also turned her gaze in his direction.“Who on earth is this guy?” she whispered, meeting the stunned gaze of the commander, who was also surprised by how Mason knew that the person she had been negotiating with on the phone wasn’t in charge.“Good day to you, Mr.?” Mason asked, shifting his gaze across the monitor to see the chaotic scene unfolding outside the truck. He could see the robbers taking their positions with their guns pointed in different directions.“I didn't take the phone to get familiar with whoever you are!” Mr. Anthony shouted, his voice echoing with frustration as he opened the driver seat. With a snap of his fingers, he signaled his men, who quickly circled the truck and pulled out two men in facility uniforms. The robbers roughly shoved the men to their knees, pressing a gun to each of their he
Robbers Demand
With the siren blaring through the building, chaos filled the entire space. Mason and the celestial assassin, now ushered to the back of the room, watched as the staff hurried around, trying to come up with a solution.“P…please believe me, I have no choice!” Mr. Umar's voice echoed through the closed door as several bulky security personnel wearing red berets dragged him away. Mason, who had been patiently observing the chaos from the surveillance room, glanced at the woman who was whispering to the commander.“Commander!” the woman yelled, her face pale as she dropped the phone from her hands. Mason, observing her, could see the fear evident in her expression.“Yes, what is it? Have they made their demands?” the commander asked, his eyes fixed on the screen displaying the location of the front gate. The entire fence surrounding the building was completely sealed and electrified by the device mounted on it, designed to prevent anyone from entering or exiting the compound during a red
Surveillance Room
After redirecting their path to the second floor of the building, they made their way toward the command center, which was Mason's original destination. The commander, taking the lead, swiped his card on the sensor and nudged the door open.Several curious eyes turned in their direction, and before anyone could raise to offer their greeting, the commander waved his hand, brushing off their gesture with a casual dismissal.“Good day everyone. As you all know, we have important guests among us today. Please answer any of their questions and treat them well,” he said, then nodded at Mason.“Hello everyone, We apologize for the inconvenience, but as you know, we cannot enter the BSL-4, so we will be observing from here." Mason added, prompting those sitting in front of their screens to adjust their positions.With the commander giving the go-ahead, the celestial assassin cast across the room, filling their eyes with live footage from the BLS4 while secretly keeping an eye on surveillance
BSL4
After they went through the front gate of the FCTS, Mason navigated towards the main building looming ahead.“How fast can this car go?” The commander, who had been watching the speedometer barely rise above 30 mph, asked.“Well, I would like to show you, but signs won't allow that,” Mason replied, nudging his head at the speed limit mounted by the roadside. Noticing his expression, Mason revved his engine, making the commander cast a satisfied smile at him.Several patrol units patrolling the premises in their vehicles were about to reverse in pursuit of the newcomer, but when they noticed their superior in the passenger seat, they sent a silent nod, which he reciprocated.Upon arriving at the entrance of the building, Mason followed his lead and exited his car to begin his tour. Although he wasn't sure how Mr. Anthony would arrive at the facility. The only way he could keep track of any movement on the premises was to locate the surveillance room without raising any suspicion.“You
FCTS
Early the next morning, Mason set out for the FCTS facility after receiving the go-ahead from his mother's secretary. When he finally arrived at the facility, he raised his gaze at the building towering into the sky. Its infrastructure was top-notch and eye-catching. Mason, not expecting anything less from a facility housing the most dangerous substance, adjusted his gaze to the main entrance. Just as Nyx had warned, flawless security measures heavily fortified the environment. Apart from the security devices mounted on the wall, drones fly around the premises assisted by several armed security personnel patrolling the premises, making it a no-go area.Mason, who had a backup plan, instructed the celestial assassins to follow him closely since he was the only one authorized to access the facility.“Stop!” One of the security men who noticed the incoming car waved at them while his other hand held his gun closely. Mason saw the man's stern expression through the tinted glass. Slowed
A Night To Remember
A chorus of gasps echoed around the table as all eyes, including Mr. Jordan's, turned to Mason. Marcus hearing Cleodara's revelation forced a lump down his throat. He knew the sister hated him due to his past actions, but he didn't expect any of them to side with Mason by outing him above his league. Marcus cast a warm smile at her. “I know Mr. Mason is your guest, but that is not possible. Mr. Williams is someone of high stature. How can you believe him when he just claims to know Mr. Williams?” Mr. Jordan, who was now curious about their guest, constantly took a side glance at Mason. From his years of being a businessman, he had developed a skill of sensing liars, especially the ones that claim to be what they are not. When he was trying to read Mason, he discovered there was something different about him. Mason's expressionlessness and his calmness made him hard to read. Unlike Marcus, whose identity was wrapped under his fingertip. Mason, on the other hand, knew Mr. Jordan
