"I'm sorry sir, but my boss refuses to cooperate with your company. Thank you."Those words echoed in Andrew's head all day. Ever since he returned from Bi Company, his bad mood continued until lunch.He couldn't even control his emotions when his father called and asked about the celebration tonight. He just remembered that today would be a celebration for the new casino his father opened.He still couldn't believe that his offer of cooperation had been rejected on the first submission. It wasn't even half an hour when the message came through and he got a kick in the face.For Andrew who has always been lauded by other entrepreneurs, the rejection from Company Bi was a kick in the face.Embarrassing.This was the first time he had met an entrepreneur who didn't even look at him. Andrew would find out who the boss of the assistant named Missi was. I will, he thought. After that, he would get his revenge.This afternoon, he'd better focus on the party tonight.The main hall had been d
By eight in the evening, all the important guests Andrew had invited were present. He greeted them all politely, with a smile, and that fake friendly face he always showed on magazine shoots.His father was a successful businessman who was always praised by everyone, so he couldn't help but act like a sweet guy with a million charms.Although there were often illegal paparazzi who took pictures of him while he was drunk in a bar with some women, he could easily pay them off with bribes.Unfortunately, it was too late to deal with the problem. Eventually Lucia found out that he had been cheating on her, even though he still wanted her by his side.He's been working with the woman named Jasmine, but she doesn't seem to have made any moves. So, Andrew intended to make a move tonight."He just came, sir. I saw him get off the taxi."A bodyguard that Andrew had told to stand guard quickly gave the information. Andrew nodded briefly and the man walked away to his place."Attention! My belov
Money?Money?Seriously?Bachdim had to repeat that one word over and over in his mind. He was just getting up to shower when his phone vibrated and a notification popped up on the screen.Bachdim usually only gets messages from his old friends at the bar, but this time was different. This wasn't a useless message or a curse from a friend who had run out of money at the gambling tables.This was a shipment of dollars!Five thousand dollars!Bachdim almost screamed like a teenage boy who had just been shot by the boy of his dreams. But he didn't. No one was allowed to know that he had gotten a shipment of money from Andrew. Not Lucia, not Bastian, let alone Lecia who was very stingy with the money from her property business.It must be because of last night, he thought.He had told Andrew that Alex had bought Lucia expensive jewelry and he didn't know where he got the money. Just as the Verg family was suspicious, Andrew also suspected how Alex could have so much money to buy expensive
"What the hell! Why are you arresting me?!" Bachdim screamed in disgust as several policemen grabbed them all.Alex was dragged away by one of the policemen, while Bachdim needed two policemen to carry him away, as he kept wriggling like a worm in heat."We did it in a bar! Is it illegal now?!" shouted Bachdim, still refusing to get into the police car. The others had been taken away earlier, leaving just Alex and Bachdim.They were to be placed in one car, but Bachdim continued to rebel."Just so you know, this bar should have been closed down! The owner has committed hundreds of millions of dollars worth of fraud and his bar has been banned from operating. So, we will follow the law for all activities inside. Understood?" the policeman explained in a voice that was rising with emotion. Bachdim continued to rebel until they were both overwhelmed."Now get into this car or the bullet in my waist will act!" he threatened.Bachdim was forced into the police car and Alex followed beside
'CONGRATULATIONS! YOU HAVE COMPLETED TASK 1 LEVEL 22!'The notification appeared as Alex stepped out of the police station. He smiled happily and immediately claimed his prize.Not money, but a luxury car!Alex was dumbfounded in his place for a moment. He didn't expect to be rewarded with a car at all, instead of cash which was probably the same as before.Mercedes-Maybach Exelero.Alex read the description under the picture of the car. It was the most expensive car released this year.The shiny black body of the car reminded Alex of a mysterious black jaguar. Moreover, the design of the car was quite classic and unique.Apparently, the system panel knew exactly what Alex's taste was. He always liked dark colors that reflected the masculinity of a man.He was sure that soon someone would come to take the car to his old house. He had to tell his bodyguard to hide the car until he could use it.Alex was not worried about thieves, but Jasmine could come uninvited. He didn't want to wast
The days passed quickly, unknowingly bringing Alex to the day of the fall festival.Alex always remembered Lucia's happy face and cheerful voice when announcing the event. So today, the two of them would come together. That's right, the three of them, because Bianca was coming too.After putting on a scarf and beanie for Bianca, Lucia also fixed Alex's coat and buttoned it up properly. The air was much bitter today, so Lucia wanted to make sure none of them got hypothermia."Are you ready?" Lucia asked. Bianca nodded happily, while Alex smiled. "Let's get going then."Alex opened the taxi door for the two and they set off for the town of Parkerburg. The festival was held right near the famous overpass as a tourist spot."Are there lots of delicious cakes?" asked Bianca. She sat between Alex and Lucia, looking enthusiastic as she played with her stuffed rabbit."Of course. There are lots of cute and sweet treats," Lucia replied, pinching Bianca's cheeks."Then I'd like to buy everythin
Name: Alexander GatesLevel: 22 (22/100)Powers: GoldHealth: Very GoodCoin Power: 70%Weapon System: VR, Golden Sword, Rifle, Boomerang, Missile, Stratcher.Total Wealth: $ InfinityAlex stared at his full bio with a pondering look. Underneath, there was an important warning about his next task. Alex was told to be prepared because the task was quite difficult to complete.Discussing the difficult task, Alex automatically remembered the monsters, viruses, and mutants he had fought before. Was the level of difficulty on par with that or perhaps worse?It was better for Alex to wait for an explanation from his supervisor.He stepped out of the room and saw Lucia preparing tea. Bachdim was said to have gone fishing with Tonny and Bastian, but somehow Alex didn't believe it. He had seen Tonny pass by the house with a neat suit wrapped around his body.What kind of fishing spot would make him wear a suit?After what had happened in the past few days, Alex thought Bachdim was getting susp
Alex walked down the hallway and arrived at a large room like a soccer stadium, circular in shape with a sandy arena in the center. It was the place where Alex would fight. The system humans were seated on chairs arranged in tiers, facing right into the arena.The cheers of the incoming system humans were loud, bouncing off the concrete walls surrounding the venue. Alex took a nervous breath, then stepped out of the aisle.That's when a light shone on him. Then across the arena, another light highlighted his opponent's whereabouts.That man! He still wore the silver mask, with the armor now complementing his body. His dark eyes stared right at Alex and despite the mask, Alex somehow felt that the man was grinning."Good evening everyone!" shouted a burly man who stepped into the center of the arena. That's when the lights came on and revealed his figure as an intermediate referee.Alex stared in amazement at the thousands of system humans in attendance, it seemed that not a single sea
