My Money Spendrift System Chapter 394_Against Eachother
He fell backward, crashing into the one he had protected with his life. The two remaining brothers' eyes widened in shock.The scientists in the room bolted for cover, scrambling to avoid the hail of bullets.As the one she shot collided to the floor, the one he had protected bent towards him to check if he was alright, but froze when a gun pressed against his temple.“Goodbye.” She shot him in the head before he could utter a word. He dropped dead on top of his already dead brother.She spun around to look at the last one, but he drove a knife into her belly, stunning her and confirming her fear of being killed by the one she cared about.“Why?” she gasped. “Why did you do it? You should be the one feeling the pain, not me.” The gun slipped from her hand as she clung to her brother, who drove the knife in deeper, again and again. Not once, not twice, not thrice.“How could you have killed them?” the last brother demanded, releasing her and collapsing to the ground on his butt as he r

Perseus sped off, vanishing from Eris and Sherry’s view. Gill flinched as he disappeared, a storm of questions racing through her mind, but she couldn’t find any answers.“You talk too much,” Perseus muttered, suddenly reappearing next to Lily’s brother and snatching the gun from his hand before he could react. He tossed the gun out of reach and grabbed Lily’s brother by the arm. “Haven’t you done enough terrible things to my brother?” he demanded. “To be honest, I didn’t expect her to kill two of her brothers before one killed her.”Tears welled up in Lily’s brother’s eyes. “Are you doing this for revenge? If it’s revenge, why did you let us kill each other instead of doing it yourself?”Perseus tilted his head, a twisted smile curling his lips. “Because it was entertaining to watch you all confront your greatest fears. Your brothers were terrified of death, and their beloved sister delivered it to them.”“She gave them exactly what they feared most despite everything they had done f

A panel appeared in front of Lint as Gill finished swallowing the chips. Lint began working on the panel, his eyes trailing back and forth. Then he spun around to look at Perseus.[It has been completed, host,] Lint announced, returning to them.Perseus' eyes darted as the panel appeared next to him. The panel displayed all the information about Gill.[The chip has been installed. Puppets have successfully been created. You can control her now and tell her what to do, and if she refuses, her heart might explode,] Iris muttered.[It is the same as they did to your twin. Now, she is just like he was back then, but hers is worse since you have a system that can intensify her pain,] Lint added. [If you want, I can make her feel worse pain now, and there is no remote needed.]Perseus nodded, his gaze returning to Gill. “Drop the gun, Gill,” he ordered.Gill glared at him. “What makes you think I would listen to you? Have—” She paused, her eyes flickering with confusion.Her heart began bea

“Shit, shit!” Ryan cursed, his vision blurry as he regained consciousness.Slowly rising to his feet, he grunted from the pain in his joints and rubbed the back of his head, wincing in the process. He pulled his hand away and glanced at it, noticing the blood.His teeth clenched, and he winced again. His clothes were torn in several places, and he had cuts all over his body, drenched in blood.It was a miracle that he was still alive. It was a miracle that he could still use his legs. Maybe they had pitied him, or perhaps they kept him alive to mock him.The memory of what happened made him frown.“That bastard,” he scowled.He had been hit in the head and beaten to a pulp. He hadn’t expected to encounter someone that strong at the company.He began walking toward the direction they had taken Lexi. “Perseus is going to kill me,” he mumbled. “I couldn’t protect Lexi.”He quickened his pace, his legs hurting with every step. Why had he been so careless, letting them get to Lexi?He shou

Eris pulled Sherry, ignoring her protests, and headed for the door opposite the one the men were going to use.Perseus turned around to look at the screen as the men got closer. He tried to see if Lexi was alright as her hands dangled at her sides.[She is alright,] Iris informed him. [She is fine and alive; you don’t have to worry. Like I said, you could heal her since you two are linked.]Perseus nodded. ‘Thought as much. Can I deal with them?’[Yes, you can. They are strong, but with your strength, you could win, though not without a few injuries and perhaps a broken bone,] Iris replied.[They would be a great opponent to test how far you have advanced, and trust me, it wouldn’t be easy. They have a drive, and you currently have none.]‘I do,’ Perseus muttered. ‘I have the drive to survive and to save Lexi. Can you tell me where Ryan is and if he is alright?’[He is fine but injured,] Lint answered. [He is heading this way too.]Perseus sighed, preparing for the fight.Eris was sti

Perseus glanced back at the men who had just walked in. All of them glared at him, eyeing him up from head to toe.Gill rose to her feet and dashed toward Pilly. Pulling Pilly to the ground, she dragged him to the corner of the room, far from where the conflict was unfolding.She had no control over her body as she walked over to Perseus, brushed past him, picked up the chip from the drawer where it was kept, and walked back.Her heart was beating fast in her chest as she returned to Pilly. The men had only glanced at her as they passed; it was clear they knew she was with them. So they did nothing to her.“What are you looking at?” Perseus questioned, peering at the men in front of him who were staring at him.He hadn’t counted the men earlier, but up close, he could see their numbers. There were sixteen of them.[That is the only successful lab experiment,] Iris told him.[You have to be careful. The reason they aren’t attacking right now is that they are analyzing your body to see

Surprisingly, the punch had no effect on Perseus; the man's hand was on Perseus's face, pushing at it, but Perseus stood still.“What is this?” the man questioned, increasing the strength of the punch until the veins in his hand became visible.Perseus' eyes widened, equally confused. “I don’t know.”“You don’t know?” the man yelled. “What the hell?”A sudden current moved through Perseus' body. He glanced at his hand and found a green substance moving through his veins, which only confused him further.[That is Blood Defense,] Lint revealed. [It is one of the rewards you get for unlocking Seus.][As long as blood is flowing in your body, none of the combat will affect you, but it depends on the individual. There might be someone who can break through the defense,] Lint explained.Iris popped up beside him. [We can inform you if there is someone who can break through the defense, and even if you get injured, you can heal.]Perseus' lips curled up, and a grin spread across his face. Th
My Money Spendrift System Chapter 401_Job
“Look, it suits you better,” Perseus announced.Immediately, the collar wrapped around the man's neck. His hand weakened, and he dropped Lexi, whom Perseus caught before she could hit the floor.The man reached for his neck, trying to pull the collar off, but it was no use. It wouldn’t budge. All the other faces paled as they watched what happened. They had placed their hope in one person, and he had failed.Perseus glanced at Lexi. Her eyes were still closed, and she looked more like she was sleeping.“How could you put the collar on me?” the man demanded, still gripping the collar and trying to remove it.“You shouldn’t have threatened me,” Perseus responded before walking off. “Now, it’s your turn, guys. Either pick me as your boss, and I’ll give you the freedom to do whatever you want, or would you rather die?”The men flinched, their eyes widening in surprise. They could get their freedom, and it didn’t matter who they got it from. To them, Perseus was strong and might be able to

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
