Perseus' eyes were rounded in shock; he wasn't expecting the system to reject him. He tried to regain his composure; he had heard about J.K. Entertainment a few times. It wasn't going to be hard for him to guess the name.His eyes scanned the place for any sign of the former president's picture with Mr. Kim, but there was none. Besides, he had no idea what the man looked like.[I can give you clues, and you can figure out the man's name yourself.]He peered at the system. “You think so?”Yes, I am only giving you clues. [You should be grateful and stop giving me that look.]He raised his brows. “What?”[Like you are going to strap the name out of me!]“Then give me the clues.” He shoved the system."Perseus, don't tell me you don't know the name of the former president of J.K. Entertainment.” Sherry muttered.He turned his head to look at her, slightly shaking his head in negativity. He watched as her eyes widened in surprise.“You don't know his name?” The old man inquired.Perseus sh
He glanced at the panel as it displayed the number of stat points that he had. He only had two stat points.[Don't give me that look!][You can exchange the stats points for knowledge.]There are a lot of books here; you can get them using your stats points. [Side note: Each book costs a total of 32 stat points for the start.]Perseus was not intrigued. “What kind of books are they?”[Medical books, gaming books, lifestreaming books, and computer books.][The rest of the books are locked until you get to Lvl 5.]Perseus arched his brows. “What do I have to do to get to level 5?”[I will inform you about it after you complete your third and fourth missions.]“Why can't you tell me?"[It's locked.]He shifted the panel, and through the system words, it was locked. Perseus frowned as Iris grinned at him before taking his position on his head after the panel disappeared.Perseus felt terrible; he had no idea how he could win the game when he had no gaming skills. He didn't have enough stat
Although Perseus was confused, since the system asked him to form an alliance with Quinn, Why was Mr. Kim the one talking about it?“My son is the one taking care of Eris; you are forming an alliance with him. In order for us to support each other, you have to get engaged to one of my granddaughters, and that is Sherry.”Here it comes; it wasn't surprising to him anymore.“I accept the engagement.” Perseus said it without second thought.However, when he glanced at Sherry, she wasn't looking too good. She had a huge frown on her face; she looked like she was going to burst out crying any moment.She rose to her feet and slammed her fist against the table. “I refuse!” She bellowed, startling everyone in the room. “I can't get engaged just to form an alliance! Grandfather, you know how to keep favorites and put me in the dark! I am not getting married to him for Eris sake; she can go to hell for all I care."Perseus was shocked; now the Kim's were kind of complicated. He shrugged, remin
[Host, are you sure leaving Kim's mansion is a great idea? You have to help him pick a genuine antique.]Perseus' eyes darted to the system; he was out of Kim's mansion and was walking down the quiet nights. He had no idea if he was going to get a cab back to him since the place was so remote.Also, he had no idea where Sherry was. He had the key to the villa, and she wouldn't be able to get in without him.“Do I have to help me pick from the ones he is ordering tomorrow?”[Not necessary.]He eyed the system. “All I have to do is get him a genuine antique."[Exactly.]“Is that what the mission is all about?”[Yes.]“Don't you know the reason why I delayed my stay at Kim's mansion?”[No idea.]“I knew you wouldn't.” He was being cocky since the system had no idea.[You stayed till it was late, so he couldn't ask them to come over.]Perseus's eyes widened. “How did you know?”[I can read your thoughts.]“But I wasn't thinking about anything.”[It's all over your face.]Perseus shrugged;
[Alert! Sensing anger coming from the host. Close your eyes, take a deep breath, and relax. You can't get angry at her now.]Perseus clenched his fists, resisting the surge of anger. The unexpected message from Celia, who had let him die, caught him off guard.[You can block her if you want to.]"‘I was thinking about that,’’ Perseus admitted.He began typing on his phone, and when he was done, he was about to press the send button when he changed his mind.She wasn't worth his message.A tight frown appeared on his face as he pressed the block button. He tossed his phone to the side before glancing at Sherry, who was going on and on in the livestream.Rising to his feet, Perseus found Sherry only three steps away. He walked to her and peered at the screen in front of him. Dozens of comments were flooding in.'Is he your boyfriend, Sherry?’'Why does he look familiar?’'Isn't that the psycho who threatened Celia?’'Does he have a thing for livestreamers?’"Sherry, hurry away; will we
Celia suspected that Sherry knew the truth and hired someone to pretend to be Perseus. Celia knew that Perseus was dead and couldn't be alive. It was just not possible.He was a loser, and even if he were alive, he wouldn't get the support of Sherry. She could play the game with Sherry since Sherry knows about her secret.Her eyes returned to the screen; her eyes bulged out of their sockets when she saw the comments. Two people were badmouthing her on the live stream and were slowly getting support from other viewers."What's happening?” She screamed when she couldn't see her fans' comments anymore.On the other hand,Perseus reached out to the system and said, "Iris, could you help me manipulate these chat messages in my favor? Make her look like a terrible villain.”[The cost of manipulating the chat costs 100 points. The process will begin soon.]“Good job.”Perseus glanced at the comments section; his eyes widened as he saw the two people who were supporting him. He recognized the
Perseus staggered to the bathroom the next morning. He picked up his toothbrush and began brushing his teeth in front of the mirror. The system's reflection appeared in the mirror.[Morning host.]“Yeah Iris.”Remember, you only have a day to spend the rest of the money. [Also, the punishment is currently waiting for you.]Perseus' eyes flicked toward the system's reflection in the mirror. "I will spend all of it today. Don't worry about me.”Iris folded her arms and looked away from him. [Hmph! [I am not worried; I am only doing what the system should.]The system kept on speaking until he went to the shower. It disappeared while Perseus had his bath.A few moments later, he was walking down the stairs in his pajamas. After bathing, he realized that he hadn't brought any of his clothes with him.Also, how were they going to get to school since he doesn't have a car to drive them from the remote area? The time for the exam was kicking in too.He met Sherry at the dining; she was setti
“Good morning, President Perseus.” The men who just lined up around Perseus and Sherry paused.Perseus had no idea where the men came from; his eyes studied the reaction on their faces. Their faces were hard, like they didn't know how to make expressions.[They are the bodyguards that were picked by your lawyer for you.]“What? I have a lawyer." Perseus raised his eyes to look at Iris, who was taking a rest on his head.[Yes, the lawyer was the one who concluded the share transfer.]“He picked out bodyguards for me."[100% probability.]Perseus was not expecting that he was going to have a lawyer.“President Perseus, the car is ready for you to get in. We are sending you off for the university.” One of the large men informed him.Perseus gestured for Sherry to follow him; she took hesitant but calculated steps towards them.Noticing this, Perseus glanced at her. “They are my employees; they wouldn't hurt us.”It was then that Sherry relaxed; they hopped into the car, and after several
