Alex's body felt very weak.He didn't know what was happening to him. He had been dodging for about 10 minutes, but the viruses kept chasing him. They swarmed and tried to get into Alex's car through the open window. Alex couldn't close the window because he was having trouble breathing. I don't know, it felt like something had been injected into his body, making him seem drained in no time.Or... what he was feeling now was the harmful effects of the virus? It seemed so, considering there were already dozens of viruses he had eradicated.When he started to get splashed by the virus explosion, at first only his face and arms felt sore. Then after a while, his body began to relax.Cold sweat broke out on Alex's body, flowing from the nape of his neck to his waist. Alex's hand holding the sword was even shaking. His feelings were all over the place, he wanted to go home. The side of his head kept throbbing, like he had just been slammed into a concrete wall.Alex wanted to stop. He fe
"Alex! Alex! What's going on? What's wrong with you?"Lucia arrived in a panic as she heard Alex moaning and screaming. She didn't know what was going on, she was in the middle of arranging the food when Alex's voice echoed outside the house.This morning, when she woke up on the hospital couch, Alex was no longer there. There was only a small note he had left on his cell phone. Lucia thought that Alex might have had something urgent to do and didn't want to wake her up, so she didn't mind at all.She returned home with her father at eight in the morning, and she did a little shopping before making breakfast.Then all of a sudden, Alex's shouting voice rang out. Lucia immediately ran outside regardless of her father's questions. By the time she reached the veranda, Alex was lying limp on the floor. He kept moaning in pain while holding his head."Alex? What's wrong with you?" Lucia crouched beside her husband in panic and fear. She checked Alex's body quickly, there were no signs of v
Lucia stepped hurriedly into her room. She changed for a moment, since she was still in her pajamas. Afterward, she stuffed her purse into her small sling bag, then grabbed Alex's jacket from the closet.After the heavy rain that had fallen, the air had dropped dramatically this morning. She didn't want him to get cold. She was already worried about her head, so she didn't want to make things worse if Alex caught a cold.Lucia checked everything once more, making sure nothing was left behind. She closed the door to her room and stepped out, while her father still had time to stop her."Did you have to go to all that trouble, Lucia? He's just overreacting," her father said with annoyance. "I told you to just give him some normal medicine.""She's sick, Dad. I don't care what you think, I'll still take him to the hospital."Bachdim sighed and went back to eating his food. He shook his head as Lucia walked away.But when he got outside, he was surprised to find Alex already awake."Alex.
Alex activated his VR feature, intending to return to the system world before Lucia came to bring him warm water.His body no longer felt weak, although his condition was not fully recovered. But at least, it was much better than before.Recalling the incident again made Alex spontaneously shudder. Because he couldn't see anything else but blur and darkness, it was like looking through a window filled with raindrops.The system world virus was clearly much more dangerous than the virus in the real world.Maybe Alex didn't feel the effects right away, but the aftermath felt like an endless wave of pain.To be honest, Alex felt somewhat traumatized.Throughout his stint in the system world, this was the first time he felt so overwhelmed. Even when fighting monsters, he didn't feel the same effect.From now on, he wouldn't underestimate anything anymore, even if the enemy was very easy to destroy.Alex sighed and moved on. He arrived at the system world smoothly, right in the middle of t
"Wow, what a big office. The design is amazing, too."Lecia chuckled when she saw how luxurious and classy the Bi Company building was. What was written in the newspaper was definitely not a hoax. Lecia had checked the photos on several business websites, but seeing it in person was even more amazing.And her sister worked at this global company. Today, Lecia would also not miss the opportunity to reap more profits.She hoped they would cooperate.There was no denying that she was quite envious of Lucia's achievements at such a young age, even though she herself had a business in property. Lecia just wants to make more money to compete with Vinna who is always on top of the latest trends.So this morning, she and her husband specially came to Bi Company. They intended to propose a partnership with the owner of the company who was never seen. To be honest, Lecia was very curious about his face.Did he look like what people were talking about? Tall, muscular, and charming? The aura of
Lecia and Tonny stopped at the company lobby for a moment, just to take in the unique and classic interior.The few employees who passed by seemed to be staring at the two, while Lecia kept her haughty demeanor. She pretended to be fixing her hairdo, when in fact she was busy taking in the whole place.Anyway, she should be able to work with this company.Lecia pulled her husband's arm to hurry to the reception desk."Yes, how may I help you, Sir and Madam?" the woman said politely, though somewhat surprised by Lecia and Tonny's flashy appearance.Lecia cleared her throat and lifted her chin haughtily. "We would like to meet the owner of this company. We intend to propose a cooperation that will definitely benefit both parties.""Ah that-sorry..." The receptionist woman paused and looked confused. Then, she spoke hesitantly, "I'm sorry, but you cannot meet the company owner."Lecia and Tonny frowned. They looked at each other, then Lecia asked in surprise, "Why?""There are certain re
'What the hell is this woman?'Lecia growled in her place. "What do you mean?!" she said irritably. She took a step forward with both hands on her waist. "Who are you, why are you talking like that?""But it's true, right?" Maria was not at all frightened by Lecia's anger. Instead, her smile widened even more. She stared at the affected employees, then continued her taunts, "You have such a good property business that you want to cooperate with this company, but you let Alex continue working as a lowly cleaning service-""Hey! Watch your mouth!" Lecia gritted her teeth angrily. She didn't care if it had anything to do with Alex, but how dare this woman embarrass her in front of everyone. "Do we know each other that you can talk like that? Stop your nonsense now!"Maria laughed at Lecia's flushed face. "Heh, why are you getting so emotional? I'm just telling the truth."Lecia narrowed her eyes, not liking Maria's tone. But the employees sounded like they agreed with her. They no longer
"The assistant was so strict with the rules, we didn't even know which one was the boss's room. There weren't even any photos to give us a glimpse of the boss. Obviously, her identity is completely hidden." Lecia explained at length to the rest of her family gathered in the living room.That afternoon, as Lucia and Alex were returning from Bi's office, Lecia deliberately called Bastian and Vinna to come to her father's house. She was still resentful of what Alex had done - humiliating her in public - so she was going to teach the poor man a lesson.They were all chatting about Lecia and Tonny's experience when they went to Bi Company. It was raining heavily outside, so they relaxed over rosella tea and the cookies Lucia had bought. Lecia and Tonny were also waiting for a call from Missi.As of now, there wasn't any news. They would still wait until tomorrow and if there was still no call, they would return to Bi Company."Even if we bribe that guy named Missi, he'll never talk about
