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.

    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

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

    Five seconds before the second half begins.Alex counted down and looked up at Valtazar holding a laser sword. Not just any sword, but a laser that could shatter his body to the bone.The young man who helped Alex up had just told him so, so Alex joined him in using his golden sword weapon. He would use the stratcher when Valtazar could no longer use his laser."Both fighters please come forward," called the referee when the break was over.Alex stepped into the center of the arena with Valtazar. His face was still throbbing with pain. The risk of defeat was much greater with his head exposed without protection, but Alex would not give up.Valtazar's threats did not affect him at all."Ready..."Alex held his sword tightly and took a step back.The referee stepped back and prepared to blow the whistle. "Begin!"Valtazar swung his sword forward and Alex blocked it, causing a loud clanking sound and sparks. They swung at each other with Valtazar aiming for sensitive points on Alex's bod

    "All those coins for me?""Of course, Master. They are the reward for your victory over our cyborg human."Alex's mouth formed a perfect 'O' with a look of amazement. The mountain of coins in front of him seemed to be as much as what he got when fighting monsters.The system panel then displayed Alex's power coins which had returned to 'unlimited' mode.Well, it could be said that his previous struggle was very stressful. Although the side of Alex's face was almost destroyed, he thought the reward was really worth it. After all, when he returned to the real world, his condition would be restored.Next, he would enter the tasks at level 23, which would definitely be much more challenging.Alex then returned to the real world and arrived right in front of the Verg family home. The sudden sound of an owl almost made him jump on the spot. He checked the clock, it was exactly seven in the evening.His hand spontaneously rose to touch the side of his face, there were no more cuts and stab w

    Alex ran down the hospital hallway in a hurry. Sweat poured down his face and neck. His expression was one of panic and anxiety. He was still in the office when Alex's trusted doctor called to say that Lucia was in labor.There had been a traffic jam on the road, but luckily Alex was able to get out quickly. He rushed down the hospital hallway to the room he was told about.Lucia was in labor.He repeated the words in his head and his heart began to pound loudly.Having just turned the corner, Alex could already hear the sound of a baby crying from the open door of the room. He ran inside and saw the doctor begin to transfer the baby into Lucia's arms.Lucia turned around with her cheeks already wet with tears. "Alex, our child... our child was born safely."Alex couldn't help but cry when he heard that, especially when his eyes fell on the baby's tiny body.Lucia was right about her guess. Their first child was a girl. Alex thought she was just guessing, but she really meant what she

    A cold breeze blew in carrying the falling snowflakes, lightly brushing the side of Alex's face.A pinch of hair that Alex had neatly combed back, again fell across his forehead. Alex sighed and smoothed it back down. Lucia was right, Alex should have worn a spray to keep his hairstyle from changing.This afternoon, Alex received an official invitation from the system world. He was to be crowned the system's human master and the ceremony was to take place at seven o'clock.Alex told Lucia that he had to attend an important event. Lucia didn't ask many questions and asked Alex to be careful.Alex was honestly at a loss to tell Lucia about the world of systems. How he got there and participated in 100 levels of the game, how he earned a lot of money for his hard work, how he fought monsters...He felt conflicted about telling her.Alex could probably brush everything off as if nothing had happened, but he felt he had to tell Lucia. After the invitation, he knew that the knot tying him t

    This morning, Alex and Lucia were finally able to go to the doctor without a hitch.Lucia had been vomiting since she woke up, so a worried Alex didn't want to delay the examination any longer.Alex felt that his suspicions about Lucia being pregnant were correct. Lucia herself felt the same way, but she didn't want to jump to conclusions. They had been hopeful since the beginning of their marriage, so Lucia didn't want to end up disappointed.They both stepped into the examination room, but suddenly, Lucia stopped walking and squeezed the cuff of her husband's shirt."Lucia, what's wrong?""I'm scared." Lucia bit her lip as she glanced into the examination room. "What if the results are disappointing?"Alex sighed and rubbed his wife's shoulders. "Honey, everything will be fine. Whatever the answer is, I'll accept it. The most important thing now is your health. We need to know what happened to you. Even if you're not pregnant, I won't be angry," Alex whispered, trying to calm Lucia

    Alex's battle axe hit the monster in the head.The axe stuck in the center, injuring both eyes of the monster which were now covered in blood.That made the monster's movements chaotic, it kept moving its tail blindly, no longer knowing where its enemy was.This was Alex's chance to leave.Alex quickly ran to his car, ignoring the pain in his hands. He circled around the monster's body and moved into the tunnel. Alex cheered inwardly, then sped up his car at high speed.In the rearview mirror, he saw the monster moving back into the tunnel, blocking the newly arrived participants with their oil-splattered cars.Alex didn't know how to describe his happiness when the finish line came into view. The spectators cheered excitedly at Alex's arrival from behind the tunnel, given that none of the participants had appeared so far."YES, THIS IS IT! FINALLY SOMEONE EMERGES FROM THE TUNNEL AFTER PASSING THE CHALLENGE AT THE RED DOT!""ALEX! GO! GO!"Alex rolled down the window and waved to his

    Was the race attended by all the system world's inhabitants?Alex arrived at a large field filled with system humans. In the eastern part of the field, there were cars lined up with the race participants. Then at the edge of the field, there was a giant poster that read: "SYSTEM WORLD ANNUAL COMPETITION!"The three winners of the previous race were posted at the bottom of the poster. The race was said to be held every 10 years and could only be participated in by players who were in the 50s and above.That's why Alex was asked to join by his supervisor.Alex stepped closer and a system panel floating in the air instantly displayed his face."Participant number 20: Alexander Gates has arrived!" The voice echoed around the field.Alex could only raise his hand in greeting as his fans went crazy. They were all restrained behind iron fences. Even so, they excitedly continued to chant his name."ALEX! ALEX! YOU'RE THE BEST!"Alex didn't expect his fans to increase fivefold after defeating

    They peeked again and now saw Alex's interaction with the lawyer.The two seemed very close, and the man even tapped Alex on the shoulder once in a while."So... Alex hasn't been lying all this time? How could this be... I thought it was all just because of Angelo's power, but apparently..." Bastian ran out of words to explain. He dropped his backpack and rubbed his face repeatedly, almost feeling crazy.Lecia and Tonny were speechless as all the strange things that had been happening were finally solved. As if their eyes were all opened, the lawyer's arrival completely stunned them."Yes Sir, the process of accounting for all your assets will be completed in a few days. We will donate a portion of your wealth to the schools and courses where your late daughter studied."The lawyer's voice sounded closer. Tonny peeked back and apparently, he had already started walking out with Alex.They hurriedly stepped back and took a spot some distance away from the door."I'll call you when ever

    Bastian sat limply on his couch. His eyes were glued to his cell phone lying on the table."Let's call him," Vinna said with an annoyed look. She had been waiting since earlier, but Bastian hadn't done it.They were already in debt and the bank officials would be back in the afternoon. If they don't get a loan soon, their house will be seized as collateral."Come on Bastian! Are you waiting for us to get beat up by the banker's assistant?"Bastian let out a harsh sigh and finally reached for his cell phone. "Yes, yes, please be quiet. My head hurts."Vinna sighed and looked at her husband. They were already tired of being charged by the bank, so the only person who could save them was Lucia.Vinna honestly didn't want to ask Lucia for help, but what could she do? Once they were out of debt, he wouldn't want to grovel before Lucia again.Bastian puts the phone to his ear, waiting for Lucia to answer. The ticking of the clock fills the silence in the room, while Vinna waits tensely in h

    Towards midnight, Bianca's condition suddenly worsened. Alex, who had been waiting on one of the sofas, rushed to the bed in a panic.The doctor checked her condition quickly, while Bianca tried to pass a roll of paper to Alex.The letter she had written.More tears fell down the boy's cheeks as his chest rose and fell rapidly. Bianca seemed to be having trouble breathing, and the light in her eyes was fading."Bianca! Bianca!" Lucia anxiously cried out the child's name, her tears falling at Bianca's feet.Alex couldn't describe how he felt right now. He was terrified at the thought of what was going to happen. Cold sweat ran down his body. His legs were shaking so badly that he couldn't even stand up. He clung to the edge of the bed as Bianca tried to speak through her labored breathing."Daddy promised to... take care of his health... and you too, mommy..."Alex shook his head and tried to calm Bianca down. The child's breathing seemed to be getting weaker. Alex stood rigid with a f
