Perseus walked down the stairs, rubbing his neck. He had slept surprisingly well with Sherry in his bed.

He wondered if she didn't sleep roughly, or perhaps it was because he had slept in first. He got downstairs, and the girls were down there waiting for him.

There were a lot of boxes gathered in the living room. Sherry's eyes were practically glittering like she couldn't wait to open up the boxes and see what he ordered.

He had no idea what was in there either.

“What did you order?” Eris asked. “I thought you said we were going to get the stuff needed at home today.”

“We are,” Perseus replied. “I just ordered those things last night. We can open it up together.”

Eris and Sherry exchanged glances; they picked up one box each and began unwrapping it. Perseus walked over to them and sat on the ground next to them.

Sherry was so expectant that she began thinking that Perseus had bought them for her.

Eris was the first to open her box. Perseus glanced at her, but he was unable to

    Perseus sighed at Eris before breaking into a run. Sherry and Eris followed suit.“Wait, Perseus,” Sherry called out. Perseus was ahead of them at that time, but he slowed down to their pace until they were next to him. “Do you both want to skip school with me?” Perseus asked. It was odd asking a top student like Sherry, but Eris might be up for it.“We are heading out to get the things needed at home. Aren't we?” Sherry questioned. “Of course, we will need to skip school.” “No, we can get them after school,” Eris suggested. “Right.” Sherry agreed. Groaning, Perseus increased his pace. “Okay.”The girls tried to get him to slow down and match their pace, but he didn't listen. He only stopped running when he heard the sound of the system.[Ding! Dong!][You have completed your daily running quest.]Perseus pulled a towel from his pocket and wiped his face. As the panel appeared in front of him, he realized his running quest duration had increased.He glanced back, expecting to fin

    Perseus stared at her like he could see right through her soul, and that made her uneasy, but she refused to back down. Perseus could tell that she had always gotten what she wanted, as long as she asked for it. Now, she thought, she could just walk up to him and command him to do something for her. Not happening. “Sorry, I will pass,” Perseus responded. “It's not like you are that pretty anyway.” He mumbled. “What did you just say?” She bellowed, her teeth gritting in fury. “Did you just call me ugly?!”“Did I?” Perseus asked. “Young miss, I will drive you back home.” The chauffeur suggested trying to take her away before things escalated. “Did he just call me ugly?” She asked her chauffeur.The chauffeur shook his head. “Maybe you heard wrong, young miss.” “Now, you are calling me deaf!” Delinder yelled. “I'm going to say a word about you to my father, and he is going to get you fired!” [Poor man.]Delinder went all mad at her chauffeur and began yelling at him nonstop.

    The three watched the car drive off. Eris stepped away from Perseus as soon as the car was out of sight. [I hope you are sure about her coming back, because if you fail a mission in your daily quest, All is going to be canceled, and the penalty is going to be tough.]Ten minutes passed, and the car had yet to come back. Perseus still waited. “I think we should leave. She would have found another guy on the roadside and asked for his help instead.” Eris said. Sherry didn't believe it. “Is there any other guy she would pick instead of Perseus?” Eris thought for a while. “Zeppelin? He is hot too.” “Do you have a crush on my brother?” Perseus asked. “Gross, No.” Eris denied. “He smiles a lot, and I frown all the time. We can't be together, and I already like someone else.” Sherry grinned. “Spill the beans; who is he?” Eris' frown deepened. “I didn't want to talk about it.” It was right then that the BNW stopped in front of them. Coming at the right moment to stop Sherry from ques

    Iris vanished into the thin air. Perseus wondered where Iris was going, but he was unable to ask. “It would be 50-25-25.” Sherry continued. “Perseus would take fifty percent, while we would take 25 percent. Of course, we will be the ones to find the job, but he will do the job.” “How exactly are we going to find these clients?” Eris asked, taking an ingredient off the shelves and shoving it into the cart. Sherry placed a finger on her chin. “Perhaps, online?” Perseus could see them from the corner of his eyes. Eris was yet to respond when a man appeared behind Sherry. He grabbed her by the arm and stared down at her. He was Geg, a notorious gangster. Sherry flinched when the man touched her. “Let go of me!” A grin spread across Geg’s face. “Our boss took a liking to you, and he would like you to meet him.”Perseus turned his head to look at the man who was speaking, and then more men walked in, trying to look intimidating. A terrified look appeared on Sherry's face as they sur

    Perseus squatted until she was at eye level with Geg. The young man trembled harder than ever as Perseus reached out to grab his arm. “Are you going to break them?” Geg stammered. Perseus shook his head; breaking the wrist was enough for him. “When you came in here and held my fiance, you said that your master took a liking to her. I would love to meet your master.”Geg's eyes widened in disbelief. “No. I can't take you.Perseus's grip on Geg's hand tightened. “Are you sure that you don't want to take me there?” Geg's face went pale, and he gulped down nothing in particular. “Yes, I have made up my mind. I will take you to him just as you have requested.” “Good.” Perseus released Geg and walked over to Eris and Sherry. “Can you both get the groceries? I have something to deal with.”Eris released Sherry. “Are you sure that we will be able to shop here after all that happened?” Perseus stared at all the people who were watching. They were staring at them with keen eyes, and they

    It happened so fast that Geg had no idea how Zach ended up on the floor with Perseus' hand pinning his head down. Geg's jaw dropped when he saw that Perseus had defeated his boss.Geg began to regret going against Perseus even after Perseus had let him go. As far as he could see, Perseus was no ordinary man.“Who could he be?” Geg thought aloud.Perseus stared at Geg, who backed away almost immediately. On the other hand, the ladies were stunned and disappointed by Zach.They were amazed by Perseus' strength and began thinking of ways to get his attention. After all, being with a man like him guaranteed their safety.Geg was still shivering from Perseus' intense gaze, causing him to lose his balance and fall on his buttocks. At that moment, Perseus looked away from Geg and back at Zach.“Are you going to leave my fiancée alone or not?” Perseus asked Zach. Zach tried to murmur a word, but it was suppressed. Perseus released Zach and made him sit. “Are you?” Perseus repeated. Zach ha

    The sound of footsteps echoed around the dark passageway. Black shoes, black long pants, and blue shirts. Lexi had a little book in her hand as she made her way towards the long passage. “Cold Case Room.” She muttered as she reached out to pull her hair into a ponytail. “Room 223.”.That was her destination. She glanced around the place, checking for anyone. She had finally found the number of the Cold Case Room after a long time of searching for it. She had told Perseus that she was going to help him with the investigation into his parent's deaths, but so far. She hadn't found anything yet. She was about to mention the case to her boss, but she had second thoughts. The case had been long buried, and she needed to find the file to know what happened. The Cold Case Room was the room where files of cases that weren't completed or buried were kept. She guessed that the file of Perseus' parents would be there since their murderer was never found. The Cold Case Room was prohibited for

    Lexi nodded. “Deal. You better don't tell on me.” A smile stretched across Luke's face. “I won't.” Lexi glanced at the book and back at the environment. It was then that she noticed that they had gotten to a really large door. “Cold Case Room.” Lexi read the words written above the room. Although the words were peeling off, she had no difficulty reading them. “Is this the prohibited room we weren't allowed to go into?” Luke questioned. “Are we going to get electrocuted or something if we go next to the door?” His voice was laced with sarcasm.Lexi ignored him. He was scanning the door, but her gaze was focused on the lock. It was a keyhole; she had expected and pictured a padlock and wasn't expecting that. “Do you have the keys?” Lexi asked.“I thought you would have it,” Luke replied. “I wasn't able to get the keys.”Lexi pulled out a pin from her pocket. “I didn't plan on using the keys in the first place. I planned to break in, and that's exactly what I am going to do.” Luke

    Two years later, Perseus was at the airport, having just landed back in his home country after traveling full-time for two years. He hadn’t heard from anyone during that time, as he’d been constantly changing his number while traveling. He had successfully visited 100 countries and would have continued if not for being called home by his aunt.“Perseus!” Sherry’s voice made him flinch as she called out to him.It had been two years since they last spoke. After the game, he had vanished, claiming he wanted to travel.[She waited for you, Iris noted. I doubt the others did.][He glanced at her. <

    Perseus smiled at the cheering crowd, then turned his gaze to the other side of the audience. His eyes widened in embarrassment when he spotted his aunt and Eriane, waving an old, embarrassing photo of him.His aunt was cheering louder than the teenage girls around her, almost as if she were a teenager herself.He wondered how she even knew about the game and its location since he hadn’t invited her. He was sure he’d be scolded later, but he didn’t mind. Shifting his attention away from her, Perseus walked to his gaming seat.As soon as they all sat down, Perseus glanced at the opposing team, just centimeters away. Sam, one of the opposing players, grinned at him, then gave Perseus the middle finger and mouthed, "Loser. We all know how terrible you are at gaming. Stop using your handsome face

    ‘What is my chance of winning now?’ Perseus questioned.Iris glanced at a panel, her eyes widening in shock. [79%][What am I seeing? You have upgraded to level 20 for discovering Forest's secret and finding a way to defeat him.] She squealed.[Is this really true?]A glint of relief slowly washed over Iris. There was hope that Perseus could finally defeat the man who had long wanted his life.[You can beat him now;] Iris claimed. [Just breathe properly.][His skills have been sealed with all of the points you have left. He won’t be able to use them against you anymore.] Iris announced.Perseus glanced at her, and a t

    Forest leaned in, his eyes cold and calculating. "This isn't just a fight. It's a battle of life and death. I often wonder why your parents gave the power I wanted most to you. I’ve waited for years to see if you’re worthy of the power you possess. But if this is all you have, then you’re not worthy and are just a piece of useless dirt occupying space."Before Perseus could react, Forest flung him across the room like a ragdoll. Perseus crashed to the ground, pain radiating through his body despite Iris’ efforts to heal him.[Perseus, we can’t keep this up much longer!] Iris warned. [You need to find a way to defeat him, or he’ll—]"I know," Perseus muttered, forcing himself to his feet. His vision blurred, but he refused to back down. "I know, Iris. But I’m not giving up. Not yet."Forest approached him slowly, almost leisurely. "So, what will it be, Perseus? Will you continue to fight and prove yourself? Or will you admit defeat and accept that you’re not ready for this?"“If you ad

    [You can! You idiot!] Iris yelled.Perseus snapped out of his thoughts and dodged the attack by moving to the side as quickly as he could. This time, he didn’t hold back his power and unleashed it to the maximum.[Good job.]The man’s eyes glinted with admiration. “Aren’t you a little thing?” he asked. “I get to see someone I can actually fight with without killing them first. This is wonderful. You’re amazing!”Perseus gritted his teeth. The way the man spoke, it was clear he was looking down on him. “What is your name?”The man was taken aback by the sudden question. “Why are you asking your killer their name?”“I just wanted to know the name of the person I’m going to kill before I kill them,” Perseus replied. “Is it that hard?”The man’s lips curled. “Fine. My name is Forest. Not a common name, I guess.”Forest? Perseus’ eyes darted to Iris. ‘Analyze him with the name.’[I am unable to analyze him.] Iris said. [I tried when he arrived, but it was impossible.]“Let’s continue with

    [Your death is near, host.] Iris said, appearing next to Perseus, her gaze fixed on Aera.[Why are you following her? Shouldn’t you be in the game?]Perseus glanced at Iris. ‘I should be in the game, but she insisted on treating my injuries first.’[You have to leave her and level up!] Iris cried. [I have no idea what’s happening, but the panel is blinking more furiously than before.][Your death is really imminent! You need to listen to me and run!]‘I’m not running,’ Perseus replied. ‘That man killed one of my family members and went on with his life. Now, he’s come after me, leaving Zeppelin out of the fight. If I run and he can’t find me, he’ll go after Zeppelin and kill him.’Iris’ eyes widened. [If you don’t run, there’s a high chance you’ll die.]‘I know that.’[Why are you with her then?]‘I can’t let Zeppelin face the same fate as our parents.’[It won’t take long for you to reach level 20.] Iris retorted.‘I have something he doesn't have.’[And what’s that?]‘I have you and

    Tossing in bed, Perseus looked away from Iris. “You don’t have to apologize, Iris. Even if I were to die, it wouldn’t be today anyway.”Iris scowled at him. [What did you just say?]“I said if I were to die, I wouldn’t—”His words were cut off as an electric current surged through him. The shock was so intense that he trembled all over, and when it stopped, steam was rising from his body.[That’s what you get for thinking about death, host!] Iris bellowed. [Do you know that both Lint and I will be gone if you die? Do you know how many people will be sad when you die?]Perseus flinched and slowly turned to lie on his back. Seeing the annoyed look on Iris’s face made him want to laugh.“I was only joking,” Perseus muttered. “I won’t die. I promise.”[You idiot!] Iris yelled, watching Perseus laugh. [If you die, I will kill you!]“How are you going to kill someone who’s already dead?”Two days later.“Are you ready?” Eris demanded, poking her head through the door to look at her teammat

    Ethan handed his phone to Perseus, who glanced at the picture. It was indeed him. They must have gotten it from security footage somewhere.Perseus nodded. “Alright.”“See you later,” Ethan said with a grin. “Don’t go anywhere alone.”“Okay.”Perseus stared at Iris. “I thought I told you to deactivate all of the cameras.”[I did,] she claimed. [I might have forgotten to turn the others off.]Perseus headed for the door since the game of the day would begin soon.[You were wearing a mask though. They wouldn’t be able to recognize you,] Iris said. [There’s nothing to worry about.]Upon reaching the general living room, Perseus met with the others, who were peering at him as if he had something on his face.“You were late, Perseus,” Liliana said.Liliana was standing in front of them with a woman with long lashes next to her. She grinned at Perseus, a smile crossing her face.“I had something to do,” Perseus replied. “I apologize for arriving late.”“No worries,” Liliana said. “Now that

    Perseus turned around to look at the man who had just spoken, ready to throw a punch if necessary.“Are you questioning me?” Cynthia demanded.From the look on her face, she seemed nothing like the woman she was with the leader. Perhaps seeing the man who had made her life a living hell taken by the police had given her some sort of confidence.“Nope,” he replied. “I was just worried if he would be able to lead the girls to his car. They are quite fierce.”“We know that,” Cynthia retorted. “Back to your job.”The men closed the door without any more questions, and Perseus glanced at her. He wanted to ask why she hadn’t let him use his fists but decided against it. In no time, the room was filled with women.Perseus gritted his teeth at the sight of them looking at him with terrified expressions. He wondered what all these women must have gone through to be that scared.“I will be letting them out now,” Perseus told Cynthia.“I will keep watch of the others,” Cynthia said before headin
