My World Domination System Chapter 60 - Bidding War
"We call them Ghost Bidders," said Johnny. "Huh?""It doesn't matter." started Amber on the call. "The aim is just to slow down the pace of the bids. "Johnny scratched the top of his wolf mask. "Usually ghost bidders are persons artificially placed in an auction to inflate the price even more, and more," he said."They can do that?" asked Benjamin. "Oh, no, it's quite illegal if you're caught," Johnny said, shifting in his seat. "But I wonder if we can do the opposite here.""To achieve what, exactly?" asked Benjamin. There was a new bid by the bottom right of the hall."Going once, going twice - 53 and a half. We have 53 and a half million dollars. That is 53 Million and 500 thousand dollars. Anyone? Anyone? Going once, going twice--", 53 and a half? Such an odd amount. "Is that you?" Benjamin asked Amber. "This is the only way to slow it down. And we should stop talking before someone notices the jig." Benjamin looked around the blackened hall. He couldn't see shit, regardless
My World Domination System Chapter 61 - Simon
"Appraisal. Previous Owner: BLOCKED, BLOCKED, BLOCKED, BLOCKED."With this, Benjamin was certain. He didn't know how exactly it was possible for Simon to be wielding a system but was considerably sure that Obsidian Towers belonged to the Black Family. He got another text from Amber: "Above 75 million. How to proceed?" Benjamin turned to Johnny. "And If I have proof?" he asked."What?" retorted Jonny. "If I have proof, that he's a plant working here. What next?" Benjamin repeated. Johnny shrugged. "I don't know. Most of what I do know comes from watching TV and going out with my brothers. We've never really caught anyone. But how can you tell?""Let's just say I have a nose for scumbags," replied Benjamin. He texted Amber: "70 Million guy is a fraud. It's Simon Black, raising the prices. Obsidian belongs to the Blacks. Proceed with what you think is best.""I hope you're sure about this," she replied.And with that, Benjamin leaned back into his chair. "And we have 80 million! Going
My World Domination System Chapter 62 - Threat
"And who is this?" asked Benjamin. His fears had come true. Not only did the mystery man stand a couple of inches taller than him, but he had a robust agreeable face, too. "Oh" started Amber "This is Mr. Kirkland. We went to high school together."Benjamin felt that was an underdescription. He'd bet half a million this man was from a special breed of high society. Mr.Kirkland shook Benjamin's hands. "Nice to meet you. Kirkland. CEO of Moonshot Industries." said Kirkland. Moonshot industries. From TV? That was building rockets for NASA? Benjamin had even heard faint whisperings that there were even plans for Commercial Transport as early as 2025. "Moonshot Industries. The Moonshot Industries?" asked Benjamin. "Guilty as charged" smirked the man. It was not an innocent smile. "Benjamin Black. CEO, IVY Corporations," he replied. Mr Kirkland turned his head in doubt. "Black. Of Black Industries?" Benjamin nodded. "That's my father-in-law." However, Benjamin left out the neat little fact
My World Domination System Chapter 63 - Anna
"That is good Anna. Very good!" Amber tossed the papers back on the table. "So you'll be forcing us to pay 300 million? Those were some pretty threats back there.""Threats? Oh, no. I am simply stating facts, Ms Amber. It would be in your best interest to honour the bid. Everything else is a precaution by the Auction House for defaulters. We are running a business, after all." said Anna, devoid of her usual hearty tone."And the part about my friends and Acquaintances?" asked Amber. Anna ignored the question. "How would you like us to proceed Ma'am?" she asked politely. Amber looked to Benjamin, who threw a devilish smile."We aren't proceeding with anything, Ms Anna. You can't force us to pay that kind of money."There was a pause. "I wonder about that," said Anna. She rose to open the doors to the Conference Room, meeting and talking with one of the guards outside. After a satisfying nod from her, she returned."Good news, Ms Amber. We have decided to let the Justice System handle
My World Domination System Chapter 64 - Interception
"We're going to find him" stated Anna."You better" replied Amber. She felt a sort of kinship towards Anna; it seemed she was the one calling all the shots in the auction house, but doubtless, she had a boss too. A lot of difficult decisions had to be made immediately, and she seemed up to the task. But this was not the time for compliments; not when millions of dollars were at stake."I hope you don't mind, I've also gone through the trouble of assuaging the two police detectives that it was a false alarm. Just a simple misunderstanding." Anna smiled weakly."We'll see," said Benjamin. Anna chuckled nervously, looking at nobody in particular, she tapped the desk as she counted the minutes. At precisely the 15th minute of silence, she received a call. "Hello?""We've identified him, Ma'am." said the voice on the other end."Why are you calling me, then? Bring him up!" barked Anna. "That's the problem, Ma'am. He's not budging.""One person, against your whole squad! Is this supposed t
My World Domination System Chapter 65 - The Prince And The Pauper
“He’s over there” pointed Anna, to the entrance. Simon frowned and turned to her.“Are you serious? Here?” he barked.“I’m afraid he insisted,” said Anna, holding out her arm. “Shall we?”Simon made a clicking sound with his tongue as he followed Anna up the steps. On the final landing, Amber and Benjamin approached them.“Good Evening, Mr.Simon.I don’t believe we’ve had the pleasure of meeting” started Amber.“Are you the one that’s being a pain in my arse?” asked Simon bluntly.“Oh, no. That would be my boss, here” Amber pointed backwards to Benjamin, who stood a few yards behind her.Simon squinted to get a good measure of him.“Listen, man, let’s all be reasonable here. What you say we go inside, and-”Benjamin stepped closer to him, and Simon’s eyes slowly expanded from their resting narrow shape
My World Domination System Chapter 66 - System User #2
“That was you?!” whined Simon.Benjamin made a polite bow. “Benjamin, the blind bat, at your service.” he said.“You can guess how we got the rest.”Simon yelled, and rushed at him, grabbing both his shoulders.“Who put you up to this huh? Was It Zeppeli, or the Maestros, or the Jaegers? Which one of our enemies sent you?” Johny shifted backwards on the mention of Zeppeli. Benjamin used Martial Arts to promptly break three of Simon’s fingers.“Ahhh!” roared Simon, dropping to the floor in pain. Some loud chanting could be heard from Simon’s security as they advanced with no fear to their master. The auction’s security cocked guns, ready to fire this time!“Don’t you take another step!” barked Anna, but Simon’s security had had enough. They continued advancing.“This is your final warning. We will shoot!” threatened Anna, but it fell on deaf ears. That is until they could hear sirens. It was coming from down the street. Simon looked up.“We had a deal. Who called the police?” asked Simon
My World Domination System Chapter 67 - Kirkland
“You’re the one who stole my dominion points, aren’t you?” Mr Kirkland was too stunned to speak for the first few seconds. But soon, he put his arm around the window of the Ferrari and smiled at Benjamin.“So, you figured it out. That was quick. Did your System tell you? I thought they were not allowed to disclose other identities of System Users” mused Kirkland. “But I suppose it was a no-brainer after all. The choices were between me and that Kid, right?” Benjamin approached him.“Who the hell are you?” asked Benjamin. Kirkland grinned and leaned back in the soft leather bucket seats of his car. “Me? I’m Kirkland. CEO of MoonStar Industries. I believe I’ve already introduced myself, Mr. Benjamin. “Yeah, we’ll see” started Benjamin, firing up Appraisal.[Appraisal. Name: BLOCKED. Age: BLOCKED. Dominion Points: BLOCKED. Exp: BLOCKED. Skills: BLOCKED Strengths: BLOCKED Weaknesses: BLOCKED.] “What the fuck?” exclaimed Benjamin. Kirkland laughed. “Don’t tell me. Appraisal? Come on. S

EPILOGUE
It was a long exhausting flight, and the first order of business was to stop by the University and see the fruits of JMONEY's work. He rode in one of the SUVs, and sure enough, he could see mayhem from even the gate."I'm sorry, Sir. The University can't grant entry to any visitors at the moment. For your own safety." said one of the University's security."Is there something wrong, Officer?" asked Benjamin."We have a few troublemakers we're dealing with. That's all.""Then it's fine, you can let me in" Benjamin used [Bow Down To Me]."Understood, Sir." Benjamin watched as they drove past broken windows, strewn toilet paper on the lawn, black graffiti on beige-white buildings, and a bunch of boys in ski masks running with metal bats. He dialed Michael and JMONEY's numbers. "Come to the dorms."Holy Shit" whispered JMONEY as he entered the air-conditioned Range Rover. Michael entered the front seat, with similar exclamations."What's the status report?" questioned Benjamin."The sta

"Huh?" muttered James. "The hell?"But Benjamin looked up to find Black's easygoing face had turned grave. He almost resembled his wife."I'm not sure I understand what you're saying, Benjamin," answered Mr. Black.Ahh, I see."Thank you for confirming it. I've had a hard time trying to decide if what that bastard told me was the truth, or not. Goodbye." dismissed Benjamin.In an instant, Black appeared before him, his hands crushing Benjamin's wrists to take hold of the pen."You should've just listened, and taken the easy way out, Benjamin," said Black softly.[Notice: [Enhanced Body] compromised.]Benjamin screamed in pain as Black wretched the pen from his fingers, but all too suddenly, Black's movements stopped. His eyes swayed from Benjamin to his stomach.There was a red swelling around a spot where It looked like his intestines had caved. A fatal swelling. James Black removed his hand slowly after delivering a deadly punch to his father's guts. Blood streamed from Black's mout

The man returned to observing the calm waves of the beach, even though Benjamin was now only inches away, looking down on him.Is this Bastard going to make me talk first? frowned Benjamin. He cleared his throat. "You were looking for me?" he started but decided that was too polite. "What the fuck do you want?" he added.The man pointed to his left. "Take a seat. You're in my sun.""What seat?" barked Benjamin, but he was stunned to see, by the man's left, almost touching his shoulders, an identical beach chair. That's Impossible. There was only one plastic chair on this entire Beach! I was sure of that just a few seconds ago.The man gestured again: "Aren't you going to sit?""No, thanks. I'd rather stand."There was no further communication from the 'GrandMaster', until Benjamin decided, reluctantly, to take the Beach chair. Activating [Enhanced Body] first."Now talk" commanded Benjamin."You've done well to make it this far. To be honest, it was pretty touch and go there for a lon
Chapter 174 - Flight
Benjamin turned over the phone and unlocked it. A video was already playing on the home screen. It was a hospital setting, which immediately set off different alarms in Benjamin's head.It was a private ward, and Benjamin recognized the pattern of the windows, the wall colors, and some brand-new equipment by the patient's bedside, which looked a lot like the pictures of hospital machines Amber had once shown to him for approval.The video was in Medhill Hospital. The patient was a still, petite figure with long straight hair that had to be combed for her every morning because she was incapable of waking up to do it herself. It was Ivy Wallouby."I trust you need no further explanation," asked James Black. Benjamin looked up at him with eyes of controlled fury."I'll kill you" he stated, not as a threat, but a prognostication of what was to come."I don't doubt that you would if you could, that is. But I hope this puts everything into perspective. Now, are you willing to hear what I ha
Chapter 173 - James Black
"So, what are you going to do, Justine?"Madam Black looked from family to foe. Claire, Simon, and Mardo were eagerly anticipating some strong response, based on how they were looking at her with wide impatient eyes. She looked back at Benjamin, still dumbfounded."What do you want?" she asked him."Want? Well, Mrs Caroline may be exaggerating things slightly there, so I don't blame you for thinking that way. This isn't some threat, or even Blackmail, Ma'am. In fact, it's quite the opposite. We're here out of respect, and professional courtesy, as Amber had deduced that maybe the board might have not told you." Benjamin rose."And now you know. We'll work with Mrs Caroline to send out figures first thing on Monday morning. It should be a good deal to think over the weekend.""Why are you doing this?" cut in Claire. For a long time, even since the bank incident, she had not been able to look him directly in the eyes. But now she did.Her eyes are weak and dull, thought Benjamin, before
Chapter 172 - Enemy of Enemy
Benjamin grinned and clinked his glass a few more times. "A toast, everyone." Soon, the sound of Benjamin's glass was the only sound to be heard in the hotel's hall. Benjamin looked again to the Black family table.Madam Black, Simon, and Mardo had all joined Claire in a gaping expression.Benjamin raised his glass. "To the couple--"Mardo rose. "Get this hobo out of here! Now!" he instructed, not minding decorum. The guests were appalled as some security approached Benjamin."Are you sure you should be treating your guests this way?" asked Benjamin."And when I find out who let him in here, you all are going to have a lot to answer for!" Mardo berated the security.Should I get rough? wondered Benjamin. But before two of the guards could close the distance by a further step, 3 gentlemen from a nearby table rose and quickly approached to block the guards."What?""Is exactly what I want to ask, Mr.Mardo." Caroline's voice pierced the air from the table next to Benjamin. "As far as I k
Chapter 171 - Deal
Amber donned a sunset brown dress that draped all the way to her ankles, barely brushing past the straps of the fragile, but stunning black high heels. On both of her wrists were gold and silver bracelets stacked upon each other in closed, tight gaps.Her necklace was even simpler; a round thin chain of something that sparkled under the building spotlights, and helped to accentuate her mischievous smile. She had curled the ends of her hair into two stunning semi-circles that she brushed off her chest as she approached the dumbfounded Benjamin."Ready when you are, Boss." she poked playfully."Looks like someone's been on a shopping spree. Do I need to look into your salary?" he teased."If you do, you should remember all the bonuses I should have made for all my *hard work*""I'm just surprised you even had the time.""Oh, no. I had my cousin pick this out for me.""Really? Wonder what she looks like."Johnny Zeppeli coughed. "Don't you people have somewhere to be already? This is sti
Chapter 170 - Cold Feet
"Pauper?""Not quite, as you can see. I usually go by Benjamin these days. Also, CEO of Ivy Corp. President of the Medhill board. Or just simply, Boss. The elevator's closing, Mr. Mardo. Don't you have somewhere to be?"Mardo Wormwood found himself leaning slightly off-center and stopped himself with the door before he could fall and collapse right there."It's impossible" he whispered under his breath, staring at Benjamin like he was the 8th wonder of the world. A wonder that had risen from the dead and posed a threat to his survival."You know what they say. Something's always impossible until it's not." smiled Benjamin.Mardo massaged his head. "I have to be dreaming or something"Benjamin pushed the button for the ground floor, with Mardo inside. "Don't worry, Mr. Mardo. All will be explained in time. And by in time, I mean very soon. Extremely sooon" The doors began to close. "See you at the Wedding" winked Benjamin from the other side.On the ground floor, Mardo was still strugg
Chapter 169 - Elevator Pauper
Inside the tower, Mardo stopped by the front desk."Excuse Me. I would like to see the CEO" he strummed politely. Dominique, one of the officers on duty that day asked: "Do you have an appointment?""If I had, I would've mentioned it, don't you think?""Unfortunately" replied Dominique, "We can't let you in without an appointment, Sir.""Do you know who I am?"Dominique shook his head irritably."Then at least tell your boss who I am. Mardo Wormwood. Aircable CEO, and owner. Or you don't know what this too? Do yourself a favor. Pull out your phone, find out, and don't get fired for turning away someone like me when your boss comes in to check in later.""I know, Aircable, Sir. Unfortunately--" Dominque turned his attention to his pocket, where his cell was vibrating."Just one moment, Sir. Hello?"Mardo overheard a gentle tinny voice issuing an inaudible command."Alright. Understood." Dominique ended the call. "You're all set to go, Mr. Mardo. We're glad to have you."And with that,
