'TASK 2 LEVEL 60: FIRE MARIA!Alex spontaneously cheered when the notification appeared. He was taking a shower to get ready for work when the system panel appeared in front of him.Remembering yesterday's incident when Jasmine arrived, Alex was already planning to fire Maria. The reason why he didn't get rid of Maria back then-when the mass dismissal happened-was because he was still waiting for orders.Now, he could finally do it.One by one, his enemies were being eliminated and falling into bankruptcy. Maybe not completely, but the slow process of falling is much more painful. Let them know what it's like to live in the scorn of the people.Alex scrubbed his body vigorously and finished his bath. Lucia had prepared a work suit that she would wear on the bed. Alex had brought most of his expensive suits to this house, but that didn't mean his old cheap clothes were out of the question.Truth be told, there were many cheap suits with quality that were much more comfortable to wear t
'CONGRATULATIONS! YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETED LEVEL 60 TASK 2!'Alex received 30 million dollars and 150 system coins.He was amazed at the drastic increase in his reward, even though he was still at the same level. It seems like the upper levels after level 50 are gold mines that make players even more excited.So far, the task was still fairly easy. However, Alex shouldn't let his guard down and celebrate his success early. There could be big challenges waiting in the next level.Alex's bio stats then appear after the system panel screen changes.Name: Alexander GatesLevel: 61 (61/100)Powers: GoldHealth: Very GoodCoin Power: UnlimitedWeapon System: VR, Golden Sword, Rifle, Boomerang, Missile, Stratcher.Total Wealth: $ InfinityAlex leaned his head against the sofa cushion and nodded to himself, feeling proud of what he had done. There were many things Alex had gone through so far, ranging from light tasks to some tasks that put his life in danger.It was true that hard wor
"Why are you silent, Mr. Alexander Gates? Are you afraid of my challenge? Didn't you succeed against Valtazar? Where is your courage?" asked Ragnarok in a mocking tone, a lopsided smile forming on his lips.His supporters laughed and gave Alex an upside-down thumbs-up in unison. They shouted the word 'suck' loudly, while Alex's supporters urged Alex to accept Ragnarok's offer immediately.Alex wasn't afraid. Whatever it was, he would fight it. But he didn't want to waste his energy on revenge. If the duel brought no benefit to his system game, then he would refuse.He did not care what people thought. It was better to return home and spend time with his family.Ragnarok seemed to know what Alex was thinking. He stepped forward and looked at Alex with a haughty face. "Are you thinking of something else, Alex? Tell me, you're not brave enough to fight me, right? Are you really that much of a loser?"Alex snorted. "Not at all. I just don't want to waste my time here. My duties in the sys
"I'm not going to die here!"Alex summoned all his strength and punched Ragnarok hard in the face until the man fell backward. Quickly getting to his feet, Alex jumped up and elbowed the man in the stomach.Ragnarok groaned, then grabbed Alex's arm before the man could move away. He slammed Alex to the ground, face first into the grass."You can't beat me," Ragnarok said with emotion. He landed one punch so hard on Alex's back and neck that water sprayed out of his mouth.Alex coughed until his face turned red. His chest was tight and burning. He moved with difficulty, while Ragnarok strode behind him with mocking laughter, thinking that Alex would soon fall. Ragnarok's supporters joined in the shouting and insulting. But unexpectedly, Alex suddenly stood up and punched Ragnarok hard in the face. Shocked, Ragnarok fell backward. Alex lunged and beat the man's face without pause with his remaining strength."Don't celebrate anything too soon!" Alex shouted.The shocked Ragnarok could
'TASK 1 LEVEL 85: NOT GO TO WORK!'Alex frowned after reading this first task at level 85. He had thought that a big battle might await him, but apparently his expectations were too high.Not that Alex was disappointed. He knew the future would not always be the same. He was just overenthusiastic because he had leveled up so quickly in a month's time. Of course, after jeopardizing the only life he had.Behind this new assignment, there was bound to be something going on.After all, he knew very well that something dangerous started from something calm, like a storm.Alex stretched his body for a moment, then got out of bed. The right side of the bed was already cold, so Lucia must have been up long ago to meet Bianca in her room.He called Missi first, regarding his absence from the office, and then checked his schedule. Alex deliberately canceled several meetings and marked only one discussion with Angelo.It had been a long time since the two of them had met in person. Alex had hear
Alex wasted not a second in contacting Phoenix and requesting that Sans' family be investigated.He knew that something was being done by his former father-in-law to support the family. No one worked in the family anymore, but they were trying hard to continue living like a respectable family.It was only a matter of time before everything came to light.Alex knew that his father-in-law was involved in illegal business and the best person to handle it was Phoenix Throne.Alex then contacted his lawyer and requested that Jasmine's lawsuit be dismissed in court.While waiting for an answer, he checked on Bianca who was fast asleep in her room. Lucia accompanied her there after hearing the story from Alex.He never thought that the Sans family would be that crazy. They had crossed the line by involving Bianca who knew nothing, even threatening her.How disgusting!Recalling how Bianca had cried and repeated the words of his former mother-in-law... really made Alex disgusted."They'll pay
Thick vapor wafted out of Alex's mouth. He didn't know how many times he took a deep breath and let it out slowly, solely to suppress his anger.However, it returned to the surface quickly, like embers blown by a strong wind when his eyes caught sight of Jasmine.Was that woman not deterred at all? Alex was tired, really.The woman stood not far from the fence of her house, constantly glancing at the bodyguards on guard. Alex came out and approached with wide strides, while Jasmine widened her eyes in shock."GET OUT OF HERE, CRAZY WOMAN!!!"Alex could barely control his emotions, his whole body trembling with anger and his muscles tensed.Jasmine was speechless with a pale face, never had she seen Alex this angry. However, she still had some words to say to keep herself from looking pathetic."You have no right to be angry because Bianca is my daughter! Why can't I take her away?!" she shouted with her voice shaking.Alex clenched his fists tightly and growled lowly, "I've had enough
"We'll go to the doctor tomorrow. It looks like there's a lot of traffic even if we take the long way around. Road repairs always take a while," Lucia said, lightly touching Alex's shoulder who seemed to be thinking hard about finding another way.That morning, Alex and Lucia had planned to go to the hospital. However, an accident happened on the road leading to it. Then, the main road to the city center was also undergoing repairs. Lucia, who didn't want to trouble Alex with a long route, decided to go tomorrow instead.After all, it had been snowing non-stop today. Lucia didn't want to get stuck on slippery roads and get into other trouble."Okay." Alex agreed in the end, and turned the wheel toward the office. Today, he was officially using his new car. Along the way, he could see people's admiring gazes on him.His new car was quite striking, but Alex didn't expect people's reactions to be that intense. In the past few days, he hadn't checked the official media website for news th
