Leonidas returned to his apartment in the early morning, looking disheveled and bearing the clear marks of a fight—bruises darkening his skin, a bleeding temple, and dried blood around his nose, all reminders of his struggle with Derek at The Moore club. Despite the extraordinary advantage of his system, Leonidas couldn’t shake the frustration of his defeat, the memory of Derek’s powerlessness against him still stinging.

As his slow, weary steps sounded in the quiet apartment, Alex looked up from the wide sofa, where he was relaxing and watching television. A smile lit up his face when he heard Leonidas enter.

"Leon! You’re finally home!" Alex’s greeting faltered, his expression shifting as he took in Leonidas’ battered face. "Leon, what happened to you?"

Leonidas brushed it off, attempting to divert the conversation. "How was Mrs. Whittaker’s cooking? Did you like it?"

Settling beside Alex, Leonidas listened as Alex’s face brightened. "Yes, she cooked under Nurse Amy’s watch, but it

    The sun blazed high in the sky, scorching the already hot and dusty construction site on the edge of New York. Leonidas wiped the sweat from his brow, his hands rough and calloused from a day of hauling bricks and mixing cement. His muscles ached, but he pushed on, knowing he couldn’t afford to stop. His brother, Alex’s medical bills didn’t wait, and neither could he. “Hey, Leonidas!” a sharp voice called out behind him. Leonidas turned to see Kyle, one of the senior workers, with a sneer plastered across his face. “You missed a spot,” he pointed to a section of the wall that was already perfectly clean. Leonidas sighed. “That’s already done, Kyle.” Kyle laughed, his friends joining in. “Don’t talk back, scholarship boy,” he mocked. “Just do what you’re told.” Leonidas felt his cheeks flush with frustration, but he kept his head down, muttering, “Fine. I’ll get it.” Kyle leaned in closer. “That’s right. Good boy.” As Leonidas bent to pick up a shovel, he heard hushed laughter b

    Leonidas' heart pounded harder with each step as he approached the sound of Emma's laughter. It was a sound he used to love, but tonight it cut through him like a blade. He turned the corner and froze, seeing Emma leaning against the wall, smiling at Derek, the school's popular hockey captain. They were standing too close, their voices low and intimate.Emma turned her head, her smile not fading as she looked at him. There was no guilt in her eyes, only mild annoyance."Oh, Leo. What are you doing here?" she asked, as Leonidas stood there, shocked and in disbelief. Derek smirked, crossing his arms over his chest, clearly amused by the situation."Looks like the mouse decided to crawl out of his hole."Leonidas ignored Derek, his eyes fixed on Emma. His voice was shaky but determined. "I’m the one who should be asking you that, Emma. What are you doing here? With him... on a romantic chat?"Emma rolled her eyes, sighing dramatically. "I was at the gym, and I just happened to meet Derek

  • NEVER NO DOLLAR   The System Initiated

    Leonidas walked across the campus, his shoulders hunched, eyes fixed on the ground. His mind buzzed with a constant hum of worry. The words of the doctor echoed in his ears: “Your brother’s condition is worsening. We need to perform surgery immediately, or he may not survive much longer.” He shook his head, trying to clear the thoughts. He needed to focus on finding more work, more money. But every step felt like he was dragging himself through thick mud. As he neared the main courtyard, he heard a commotion—a crowd of students gathered around Emma and Derek, who were standing on a raised platform. Emma looked radiant, a satisfied smile on her face, while Derek held her close, grinning like he had won the biggest prize. “Attention, everyone!” Derek’s voice boomed across the courtyard. “We have an exciting announcement to make. Emma and I are officially engaged!” The crowd erupted in cheers, applause ringing out across the space. Leonidas froze, his breath catching in his

    Leonidas slowly opened his eyes, the sterile white ceiling above him coming into focus. The harsh light of the hospital room stung his eyes, and for a moment, he was disoriented, unsure of where he was or how he had gotten there.His body ached all over, bruises and cuts made him hard to move. He winced, trying to sit up in the hospital bed. What happened last night? he thought. Memories of the alley, the beating, and that strange system flickered through his mind.“The system…” he whispered. He remembered the gun, the money, the screen that had appeared out of nowhere. But was it real? Maybe that was just his hallucination after craving for help on the verge of death, but if that was just a hallucination, how could he run from Marcus and his friends when his hands still so vividly left the trace around Leonidas' neck?Then it hit him—Alex. His brother! He had to make sure Alex was okay. Ignoring the pain coursing through his body, Leonidas ripped the IV needle out of his arm and s

    "What?" "What if I say no...? I spent a night here and my money was stolen. I got so much loss and it's ridiculous if I say to the police that nothing happened last night." Marcus’s eyes narrowed at Leonidas' bold response. His fists clenched, but something about Leonidas made him pause. There was a shift, an intensity in Leonidas' gaze that hadn’t been there before, and it sent a chill down Marcus’s spine. It was that same feeling he’d had last night when Leonidas had held the gun. Without a word, Marcus stepping back slightly. His face full of hesitation, making Derek looked at him with wonder. “What are you doing?” Derek hissed, glaring at Marcus. “He’s just bluffing. Are you gonna let this little loser scaring you? You'll be dealing with the police!" "Let's find other way," Derek said, his voice was law. "What the fuck did you just say to me, Marcus? Find another way? Are you scared of him?" "I'm not—" Marcus didn't finish his sentence as he glanced at Leonidas, staring st

    After The System, And Still A Loser?

    That was before Derek sent a brutal kick on Leonidas' stomach. The force of it sent Leonidas flying over the guardrail, crashing onto a billiards table on the first floor, shattering it on impact."Ha-ha! That was cool!" Derek laughed, the sound carrying through the club as Marcus and Emma exchanged amused glances at Leonidas’s pain. But Derek wasn’t finished; he descended toward the dance floor, ready for more.Leonidas struggled to his feet, bruised and battered, and stepped onto the dance floor, his eyes locked on Derek, who stood just a few paces away, confident and unmoved. The two men squared off like fighters in a ring, their breaths shallow but loaded with animosity. Around them, the crowd looked on, most of them expecting to see Leonidas fall again. But their judgment didn't matter to him. He only had one thought-to wipe that smug smile off Derek's face.Derek's stance grew taunting, beckoning Leonidas to start the fight. Driven by rage, Leonidas sprinted forward, aiming a hi

    Leonidas paced anxiously in front of the emergency room, barely holding himself together as he waited for news on Claire. After her fall from the seventh floor, her faint heartbeat had been nothing short of a miracle; still, he and the onlookers had scrambled to call an ambulance in a desperate rush to save her life. Her injuries were severe—hope felt fragile."Claire, please... survive," he murmured, voice thick with unshed tears, his fingers clasped tightly together as he prayed for another miracle, just as he once had for Alex."Leonidas!" Blake’s urgent voice broke through his daze. He hurried over, pale with worry. "What happened? Did I hear wrong?"Leonidas clenched his fists, struggling to hold himself steady. "Blake, they did this... to Claire," he whispered, the pain in his voice clear.Blake guided him to sit, a steady presence amidst the storm. "They? Who?""Derek," Leonidas replied, voice edged with fury. "Derek and his friends... they wanted her dead."Blake’s face went r

    Leonidas's heart raced as a staff member approached him with urgent news."Sir, Claire Adwell isn’t in the dressing room, and she hasn’t been back since she left with you," the staff member reported, clearly worried."What?" Leonidas’s expression tightened with concern. "That’s impossible. I saw her off just moments ago."He hurried through the hallways, searching every corner of the building, his calls to Claire’s cell phone going straight to voicemail. With each unanswered ring, his frustration grew, clouding his mind. She should’ve been back by now. Where could she have gone?“Claire, where are you?” he muttered to himself, anxiously scanning the crowded venue, hoping for a glimpse of her. No one seemed to know where she was, and he was quickly running out of options. Feeling his patience wear thin, he stopped and took a steadying breath. Desperate, he resorted to a last measure.“System, activate!” he commanded quietly, his tone decis

    Together To Destroy What Was Growing Beautifully

    Leonidas’ rising popularity and influence spread quickly across campus, affecting everyone in his orbit, including Emma and Derek. But Derek, who had once been Leonidas’ number one bully, now found himself steering clear of him, too cautious to even cross paths with him anymore.Whenever Leonidas walked through the hallways, all eyes turned his way—not just because he was with Claire Adwell, but because students now respected the influence he commanded. The shift in power was undeniable, and no one seemed to question Leonidas’ position anymore."Is he really some tycoon's son who's been hiding his identity this whole time?" Derek muttered, glaring after Leonidas and Claire as they passed through the hallway, with everyone’s gaze following them. The sight of Leonidas basking in admiration stung. Jealousy mixed with anger, leaving Derek feeling humiliated and ignored.“Unbelievable,” Derek mumbled bitterly to himself, clenching his fists. He turned down a different hallway, desperate to

    What The Ex Deserved To

    Leonidas walked alone through the campus corridor, his hands tucked into his pockets. There was no pressing reason to seek Claire, yet he found himself looking for her. It had become a quiet ritual—ensuring that he spoke to her at least once a day, even if the conversations were trivial. As he wandered, a thought struck him: all these excuses were just a mask for the simple truth—he wanted to see Claire.Was Leonidas attracted to her? If anyone were asked, the answer would be obvious. Claire Adwell, the Noble Lady, was the kind of beauty that no one could ignore—graceful, elegant, and seemingly untouchable. But Leonidas held back a smile, restraining himself. He reminded himself of the boundaries between them and the importance of remaining professional, even when his thoughts betrayed him.As his gaze shifted to his surroundings, he noticed how differently people regarded him now. Gone were the days when they looked at him
