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

    In the hospital hallways, a man with a disheveled appearance stands facing the window. His face is haggard and dark circles are clearly visible in both eyes.Alex's eyes are focused on the water droplets on the window. His lips are pressed tightly together, but his mind is as noisy as a broken record. Alex can't stop thinking about his daughter-Bianca-who is sick, as well as the problems that have hit him hard.His property company had gone bankrupt. There is nothing left. Alex's savings had also been used up to pay off debts and he is still unemployed.Alex let out a long sigh for the umpteenth time, then he sits down on the waiting chair. He looks at Bianca lying limp in the hospital bed, then at his wife's family members who stare at him sarcastically.Ever since Alex's company went bankrupt and he no longer had a high income, his wife's family always blamed him.

    Alex is silent. His eyes looked one by one at his wife's family members who were staring with condescending smiles.

Now, he feels that in the eyes of the Sans, Alex is nothing more than street dust that can be brushed aside at any time.Alex is too overwhelmed with emotion to think and speak immediately. Now, he is at a loss as to where to borrow money.Ms. Anne raises one eyebrow with an annoying lopsided smile. "I'll wait here and take a look at the bills in person. But by the way, where are you going to get the money? Don't tell me by stealing? Oops! Sorry.""Hey, Alex. We don't want to get involved with the police!" John half shouted to stir things up

Alex gets out of the luxury car he just bought this morning, then stares at the two-story house in front of him. He deliberately not changing his clothes to see how the wealth-crazed family would react.He begins to imagine the insults they will hurl. And once through the door, it just so happened that the Sans family members did not even know he there. Alex is greeted by cursing from his brother-in-law."Oh look, who's here? The useless unemployed!" Shouted John who was standing not far from the entrance. "After pretending to be rich at the hospital, you still dare to come back here?"Jasmine approaches Alex who is standing still in his place. The woman's face was contorted with hatred and her lips formed a sardonic smile. "Why are you back here? You said we were getting a divorce, but you still come to this house? Don't you have any shame?" She a

    After pressing the panel with the command to proceed to the next level, a small light appeared and a loud click sounded once. The panel quickly disappeared, and a new, much wider panel appeared.Alex notices a rectangular panel hovering in front of him, seemingly out of nowhere. It is dominated by a faintly glowing blue light. An inscription slowly appeared there.There is a prompt to fill in his full identity. Starting from name, date of birth, parents' names, full address, family members, blood type, and other things related to Alex's life."Fill in everything to advance to the next level! You'll get more rewards!"The adult male voice came back. The tone is cheerful, but there is still a command there.Alex is silent for a moment, debating whether or not to fill in his full identity. Although the word 'reward' is tempting, he doesn't want to make the wrong move. He knows that this is the system that sent the million dollars to his account, but there's no denying that there's a feel

    Alex is dumbfounded after finishing reading his first task on the panel screen.He should go to the Sans' house and give them $100? Isn't that too good?Alex disliked the first task, but he had already joined. Then, as per the rules, he had to complete whatever the task, even if he doesn't like it.Maybe this is one of the challenges for him, seeing how he hates the Sans family. Letting out a long sigh, Alex stretches his stiff body and gets up from the sofa. His dark irises surveyed his luxurious home for a moment. It is much more luxurious than his old home.Alex's eyes shifted to the expensive antique chandelier hanging from the ceiling, then grinned slightly. He is no longer a useless unemployed man with only $5 in his wallet.He now had half the money in his account, minus the money he is going to give to Sans' family. But after this task was completed, he would definitely get a much more valuable reward.Alex locks his door and walks to his car. He starts the engine and drives

    Chapter 179-A Crazy Woman

    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

He couldn't think of anything, while Lucia patiently kept encouraging him.Alex looked at the letter as well as Bianca's mini version of the Iridium necklace.

    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
