My Money Spendrift System Chapter 317_Procrastinating
“Good morning, Perseus,” Eris greeted, walking down the stairs just as he was setting the table.Sherry and Lexi were by her side, and Lexi was red with embarrassment. Looking at them, he could tell they had already teased her about acting like a kid.“Good morning,” he breathed out a response.After Iris had asked him the question, she had disappeared, saying she would be back when he was done cooking.“Morning,” Sherry chimed, hurrying down the stairs faster than the rest. “Lexi was alright when we woke up this morning. She was watching us sleep with a confused look on her face.”“She had no idea why she had her hair in two braids and was holding a teddy bear and a lollipop,” Eris stated.Sherry leaned in to peck Perseus on the cheek, stunning him and sat down as if nothing had happened. “Thanks for making breakfast.”Perseus touched his cheek, a faint blush creeping up. “Umm...sure.”“I should have woken up and made breakfast,” Eris implied. “It must have been a bother.”“It was no
My Money Spendrift System Chapter 318_Gay And Unromantic
“I’m heading out,” he announced, walking past the three ladies who were still eating in the dining room.They were still eating after he had bathed and dressed. What slow eaters they were! It was probably because they were talking.“Where are you headed?” Sherry asked, her head snapping towards his direction.He glanced back at her, his hand in his pocket. Her eyes widened when she took a good look at his face. His hair was pulled back, showing his forehead and the earrings in his ears.Blush slowly crept to her face. He looked more handsome with his hair up. She shook her head repeatedly, snapping out of her thoughts.He gave her a questioning look before answering. “A tournament.”“What tournament?” Eris questioned. “Are you a player?”Perseus shook his head. “It is a chess tournament and I am part of the audience, but the best chess player in the country invited me.”“You mean Gold Herald?” Sherry asked, pretending to gag. “That brat always acts like he wants us to worship the groun

“I was only telling the truth,” Sherry yelled, bracing herself for what was next to come.Just as Eris was getting to Sherry, Lexi moved swiftly, catching Eris halfway. “How could she say it like that?” Eris demanded. “And she said it in a way that made me agree to it!”Perseus only watched them go back and forth arguing without interfering. He was still recovering from the words that they shot at him.Unromantic, romance illiterate, someone who can’t tell if a girl likes him, one who has the bad luck of his dates being kidnapped, and the worst of them all was them calling him gay.[Host, aren’t you going to stop them and at least pick one?]“I can’t pick,” Perseus replied.Iris frowned at him. [You can’t what?]“If you ask me to pick out of them all, I can’t pick.” [What do you mean by that?] Iris demanded. [You just have to pick one and stop this fight from happening.][Come on, tell me which one you like the most.]Perseus blinks rapidly before running his hand in his hair. “I do
My Money Spendrift System Chapter 320_Chess Tournament II
[I can’t do anything to help, host,] Iris blurted out. [That is your punishment for heading to the chess tournament first.][You have to take care of it yourself. Goodbye.]With that, Iris was out of sight. She completely left him to his fate.Sherry repeated her question.Perseus glanced down at her. “If we keep on wasting time, we are going to be late for the tournament.”Sherry’s lips parted to respond, but Perseus had already sped out of the house, leaving them behind.*****The drive to the venue was filled with Sherry’s excited chatter, Eris' quiet grumbles, and Lexi’s silent anticipation. Walking into the venue, Sherry clutched Perseus' arm, beaming with smiles. Eris' frown was even more pronounced, while Lexi maintained Eris' pace behind Perseus and Sherry.“You both are weird,” Eris mumbled to Lexi. “How can you both be okay with it? Sharing one guy…”She hadn’t finished what she was saying when Lexi hurried over to Perseus and held his other arm. “Great,” she scoffed.Sherr
My Money Spendrift System Chapter 321_Chess Tournament III
Perseus sped to the stage. He couldn’t let Zeppelin tell the world that they were related. That was more like putting his life at risk. The people that were after him must be watching now.He used his speed to the maximum and knocked the mic out of Zeppelin’s hand. “Don’t make the mistake of revealing yourself as my brother,” he mumbled.He returned to his position just as he had said that. It happened so fast that no one had time to react and understand what happened. Even the ladies with him had confused looks on their faces.Zeppelin spun around immediately. Although Perseus had returned to his seat, Zeppelin found no one there. He knew he had heard Perseus’ voice, and there was no mistaking that the mic had been knocked out of his hand.He was going to ask Perseus about it later.‘Wasn’t he holding the mic a few seconds ago?’‘How did it get to the floor?’‘I didn’t see it roll.’‘The camera must have captured something.’Lexi peered at Perseus. What she saw was the same as what s
My Money Spendrift System Chapter 322_Hill and Tem
The members of the game were checked to ensure they had no devices, and Hill and Tem stepped into the middle of the stage. The rest of the contestants sat on the left side of the stage. They were far away from the current players about to begin.Zeppelin and Gold were seated on the same sofa. Gold was glaring at Zeppelin, who acted like he didn’t realize it.“The game between Hill and Tem will begin now,” the voice announced. “Let’s go!”In a few minutes, the game began, and Perseus watched closely, paying attention to the mistakes made. If it had been in the past, he would have gotten bored already, but now that he knew how the game worked, he was able to watch and understand. However, the game didn’t look interesting to him or let him guess who would win.He already knew who would win between the two. Hill had made a mistake at the beginning, and that mistake was going to make him lose the game. And true to Perseus' insight, Hill lost the game and was sent off the stage while Tem s
My Money Spendrift System Chapter 323: Nam and Silv
[Nam Otis, a celebrity. He is a musician with tons of fans. His fans are here, and you are still the center of attention even though he is here.]Perseus wasn’t expecting him to be a celebrity; he thought that was just the way Nam dressed. ‘I don’t know him because I don’t follow any music. I can’t remember the last time I listened to one.’[I know. You were always working like a fool.]‘Hey!’“The game is starting in two minutes,” the booming voice announced. “Nam Otis, this is not a concert for you to flash your smile. There is still one guy here who is quite handsome—more handsome than you.” The man let out a chuckle.Nam tossed his hair back and grinned before taking the mic from a man who was holding it out for him.“I know there is someone more handsome than I am,” Nam said.Just a sentence from him made the girls squeal even louder. He raised his arm and pointed at Perseus.“Do you mean that Perseus is more handsome than I am?” Nam questioned.Perseus and Nam’s pictures appeare
My Money Spendrift System Chapter 324_Maximillian
“The game is starting soon,” the voice boomed, announcing, “the game between our famous second-best player Zep and the other player, Jim.”While the others cheered and squealed in excitement, Perseus' eyes were glued to the panel in front of him. What he saw there shocked him so much that he couldn’t utter a single word.How could that have happened? How was it even possible?As if noticing his shock, Iris floated towards the panel and stared at it. Her jaw also dropped in astonishment, as she hadn’t been able to read Zeppelin and knew nothing about him.The panel read:[Name: Zeppelin Damon.][Race: Human.][Combat Skill: Boxing and Taekwondo.][Level of Danger Impact (How dangerous he is): 899.][Interest Rate: 200/200.][Amount of Love: 150/200.][Hatred: 100/500.][Strength: 175/200.][Fear: Hurting his brother he had just found without having a choice.][He is a puppet of the Maximilian family, who are enemies of the Damons, more like a doll that should be controlled.][He has sc

Chapter 470_Finale.
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. <
Chapter 469_Winner
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
Chapter 468_Forest 79%
‘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
Chapter 465_Run
[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
Chapter 464_Game
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
Chapter 463_Aera
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
Chapter 462_Back to the Mansion
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
