Penniless Man's Wealthy System Chapter 79-About Debt Again
"BACHDIM VERG IS HERE! This bastard has been trying to trick us by hiding in his shed!"The man who had been holding Alex and Lucia back rushed in at the sound of his partner's shout. Alex and Lucia rushed to follow in fear.The whole house had been torn apart, nothing seemed to be intact anymore. Glass was scattered everywhere along with several broken family picture frames. Lucia's sobs intensified, especially when she saw her father being dragged out by the thugs.With a face as pale as paper, body shaking violently, Bachdim Verg begged to be released. However, the thugs shook their heads with furious expressions. His grip on Bachdim's arm only intensified. The other pulled roughly on Bachdim's shirt collar, telling him to move forward towards the living room where Alex and Lucia stood.Lucia wiped away her tears and approached her father. "Daddy! Dad... please let him go! You can't just drag him-""Shut up!" shouted the burliest of the men, none other than the leader of the gang.
Penniless Man's Wealthy System Chapter 80-Successfully Saved Father-in-Law
Alex rose from the edge of the bed as Lucia's eyelids fluttered open.Lucia blinked, then looked around in a daze. When her gaze met Alex's, she froze with a confused look on her face."Why..." Lucia muttered, then the previous incident suddenly popped into her head. Her body jerked awake with her eyes wide with fear. "Dad!""Lucia-""Dad... where are you? Those thugs-argh..." Lucia groaned, unable to continue her sentence as her head throbbed with pain again.Alex didn't answer right away, instead telling Lucia to lie back down. Lucia obeyed, though her face was creased with worry."They took your father away," Alex said in a low voice, his hand gently stroking the back of her hand. He tried to calm Lucia down, but it didn't seem to work. The anxiety on Lucia's face only grew. "We have to save dad," she murmured angrily."They asked to meet at the tobacco factory on the edge of town, I'll go there," Alex said."Alone?" Lucia shook her head. "I have to go with you. You can't go alone
Penniless Man's Wealthy System Chapter 81-Task 1 Level 16
Alex stopped his car in front of the Verg family home. He wanted to go straight to the hospital to see Bachdim's poor condition, but his semi-conscious father-in-law kept asking him to go home, so he complied.He grabbed the man's arm and helped him walk into the house. The door opened and Alex frowned in surprise. Had Lucia gotten up from where she was?But as soon as he passed through the door, it was his two brother and sister-in-law. They turned around and widened their eyes when they saw the battered state of Bachdim who was on the verge of unconsciousness."Oh my God dad! What happened? Why are you battered? What did you do, huh? You useless man!" Tonny immediately cursed in a booming voice. He and Bastian immediately took over Bachdim from Alex.Alex's mouth opened to explain, but suddenly a punch flew into his face, hitting the corner of his mouth hard. Alex's body staggered backwards before falling to the floor. A coppery taste filled his mouth.What the hell? Why did Bastian
Penniless Man's Wealthy System Chapter 82-What Should He Do Now?
'TASK 1 LEVEL 16: YOU MUST REST BY SLEEPING ON THE SOFA!'Huh? What?Wait a minute.Alex's brows furrowed in surprise. He blinked and stared at the system panel screen floating in front of him. In the dimly lit room, the light seemed much brighter than usual, as did the text.But did he see it wrong or was the sentence just a joke?It seemed unlikely that the system panel would crack a joke, especially if it was related to its duties. But what was listed now? Wasn't that line of command too easy to do? Or did Alex just not know the purpose of the task?Alex reread the task and couldn't help but laugh. It seemed so intriguing.Well, he just had to live with it.Alex then changed out of his damp, musty-smelling clothes into the pajamas Lucia had bought him. He was actually a bit worried about the girl's condition, considering she wasn't in the best of shape when she brought her father to the hospital.Alex looked at his phone and hesitated. He thought they might still be busy taking car
Penniless Man's Wealthy System Chapter 83-Expensive Item
'CONGRATULATIONS! YOU HAVE COMPLETED TASK 1 OF LEVEL 16!'Alex should have been happy to see the notification, but he was in a bad mood. It was none other than his wife's mood.Lucia's silence continued until they both wanted to go to work at Bi's company.They always went together, and today was no different, but the situation was the opposite of usual.Lucia was still reluctant to open her mouth, not even looking at Alex. Throughout their ride to the office, Lucia was only busy checking the files in her hand with no intention of talking to Alex. Alex had apologized and explained the problem, but Lucia still didn't want to say a single word. Maybe she just needed some time alone. Alex chose not to bother her anymore, and quietly watched her from behind. They parted ways in the elevator, with Lucia's expression still resentful.He sighed and pondered in the room reserved for the cleaning service. Thinking of how to mend their relationship, he was at a loss.He had to make their relat
Penniless Man's Wealthy System Chapter 84-$8 Million Dollars
Maria tapped her fingers on the table with a contemplative look.She recalled her conversations with her family, where they all suspected that Alex's business had started to build. From chicken shares from expensive restaurants, money for his mother-in-law, and now jewelry from a well-known brand: Tiffany Jewelry.There's no mistaking that Alex has bounced back with god-knows-what business. The point is, he has a lot of money and is using it to spoil his wife.Maria automatically chuckles when the sparkle of the expensive jewelry comes into her head. Alex gave it to Lucia as an apology. What their problem was, Maria didn't care. She was just jealous that Lucia had gotten so much jewelry.When will Jasmine start her mission? If it continues like this, it will be harder and harder to get Alex to turn his back on Lucia.Maria also wanted to earn a lot of money to buy expensive things, if for example Alex had rejoined the Sans family.Maria sighed in annoyance and got up from her chair. S
Penniless Man's Wealthy System Chapter 85-Go Home
"Alex, can't we just take a taxi home?"Alex, who was putting away the cleaning supplies, immediately turned around at that."Yes, of course," he replied, smiling.Lucia nodded and sat back in her chair. So, she finished her work early and this time took turns waiting for her husband to finish.Alex's work as a cleaning service was already done, but today he was in charge of putting the cleaning tools back where they belonged. His other colleagues had returned, so he took the initiative to tidy everything up himself. He doesn't like to see messy tools, especially when they're scattered all over the place.Lucia watched how Alex worked, so skillfully and quickly. Then, the woman's words came back to her.Where did Alex get that kind of money to buy expensive jewelry?Lucia would ask him about that when they got home. That's why she chose to take a taxi instead of the bus. Lucia was sure Alex couldn't have done that, so she wanted to make sure before she returned home.It would be best
Penniless Man's Wealthy System Chapter 86-The Evil Virus
Alex glanced at Lucia who was fast asleep on the hospital sofa, then at his father-in-law who was lying limply on his gurney - already groggy from the medication.Alex's father-in-law's condition had improved, so today Bachdim was discharged by the doctor. Despite this, his appearance still looked very concerning due to the blackened wounds on his pale skin. The doctor said that there were no serious internal injuries from the thugs' beatings, he just needed complete rest.Alex hopes that after this incident, Bachdim will be deterred from gambling and borrowing money again.He's not worried about Bachdim, but more about his wife. Lucia takes care of everything, even the debt payments. The group of thugs also came to the Verg family home on a whim. If Alex wasn't there, who knows what they would have done.Alex brewed his coffee and placed it on the table. In that room, there were only the three of them. His two sisters-in-law had been back home since last night. They kept complaining,

Extra Chapter-(Happy Ending)
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
Chapter 180-Defeat of the Enemies (Ending)
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
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
Chapter 178-Amazing Prize!
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
Chapter 177-Facing the Monster
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
Chapter 176-Annual Competition
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
Chapter 175-They're Going Bankrupt
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 now realized what Bianca had meant.Lucia arrived with hot tea, as well a
Chapter 173-In Condolence
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
