Regressor With A Billionaire System A Surprise
In that instant, everything and everyone began to move so slow.I didn’t know what was going on but one thing was for sure, if I didn’t do something I would receive a vicious blow from Jake.In a few tenths of a second, I stepped out of the way as quickly as possible, I wasn’t prepared for this so I was clumsy and caught his ankle with my foot as I moved.When I was finally out of his reach safely, time went back to normal and everything began moving in real-time again.Jake tripped and fell over, knocking a few chairs to the floor as he did so, attracting the attention of everyone present in the room.He shook his head quickly as if trying to process what just happened.I walked up to him and offered him my hand, “you tripped and fell over, let me help you up.”He took my hand and I pulled him up close to me, and spoke into his ear. “If you ever try that again, I’ll kick your head in,” I said to him.I leaned back, brushed his shoulders with a wide smile on my face, and made my way t
Regressor With A Billionaire System A Letter
Everyone began shuffling out of the room in a uniform manner.I got up from where I sat and was at the back of the queue. However, I was held back and grabbed on the shoulder by an official, stopping me in my tracks.I turned to face him and asked him what was happening, and he gave me a signal to wait behind till everyone else had left.‘What could this be about? A special reward for me coming out in first place? Or something else…,’ I thought to myself.Either way, I sat back down on my chair and soon the room was empty. No one seemed to notice my departure from the ten candidates, and so I didn’t get any disturbances.Now that they had all left, I spoke. “Care to tell me why I’m the only one left in the room?” I asked.“Mr Damon,” the official began. “Congratulations on coming out in first place in the tournament, if you would please follow me, we have someone who wants to speak to you,” he said.“It’s Anon again isn’t it?” I asked.“As perceptive as ever I see, he would like to co
Regressor With A Billionaire System Other Worlds?
Dear Damon,I'm writing this letter to let you know that I've decided to return to my hometown. I know it may come as a surprise, but I cannot face you even though you said it was fine. I don't see things going back to normal between us.My illness is starting to hit me harder, and I feel it's best for me to be back home during this time. I apologize for not telling you before leaving, but I didn't know how to face you and explain my situation.I want to thank you for your kindness and understanding throughout the competition. You've been a good friend, and I wish you all the best in your future endeavors. I hope that we can remain in contact and, if I make it through this difficult time, perhaps we can meet again in the future.Once again, I'm sorry for leaving so abruptly, but I believe it's the right decision for me. I wish you success and happiness in your life, and I'll always cherish the memories we made during the competition.Take care,Eleanor‘Her illness…it’s going to be ju
Regressor With A Billionaire System Reunited
‘Unauthorized access? I shouldn’t pry any further, I’m not prepared to face the consequences or take the risk. If it’s against something that the keepers of the code have set in place, I guess I can’t access it. Still I’m intrigued, I keep discovering that the system has more and more secrets to hide, it remains a mystery to me,’ I thought to myself.I got up from bed, my eyes were clear as day now. “In any case I’ll just have to wait to see what the surprise quest is, I’ve fulfilled the thresholds, now I just have to wait and see what it is,” I said to myself.I couldn’t sleep anymore, so I decided to pack my bags as was instructed by the officials.There wasn’t much to pack anyway, as most of our clothing and essentials were provided to us by the company, and I felt it would be wrong to take what didn’t belong to me.So I only packed a few things, a toothbrush, toiletries and other minor items. Thankfully there was already a bag in the room, where I could store my belongings.As I p
Regressor With A Billionaire System A Well Deserved Vacation
It was at times like this that my skills would come in the most handy.It was an entirely unprecedented situation, but thankfully, I had my emotions and expressions in check.‘Unbreakable and poker face really are useful,’ I thought to myself.They both walked up to the stage and shook the officials hand.“I congratulate you both for making it here, I advise that you don’t take this opportunity for granted, as a lot of people would kill to have this position,” he said.They both nodded in unison.I stared at them both and realized that they hadn’t changed a bit.However I was kind of shocked, this was my first time seeing them both since I got into Columbia, and supposedly they were also students from there.It was surprising, but I didn’t think too much about it.I already had plans to apologize to both of them anyway, this just made everything easier for me.“Now I expect all of you to treat them with the utmost amount of respect and foster good camaraderie between each other. Do no
Regressor With A Billionaire System Another Mystery
She and I engaged in a very long conversation as we moved on the road.I had to explain to her that I’d been very busy, between work, studies, basketball, gym and now this, that I’d barely had time for myself.She explains how that still doesn’t give me the right not to respond to my emails and I apologized for it.I asked her if she was present at the entrance ceremony for new students, because I didn’t see her there.She said she wasn’t in attendance, that she had some errands to run for her family, and that she had to miss it because of that.That explained why I didn’t see her during the event.Finally, I asked her about Noelle and how they knew each other.She told me that they met in some challenge for an internship position at one of the Slater family companies, and asked why.‘An internship program for another company, that probably means that the Slaters are selecting candidates from all the best schools and making them occupy spots in their companies from the very beginning
Regressor With A Billionaire System Marcus
This wasn’t the first time that something like this had happened.I was reminded of the quest I received back when I was in my dorm, the one where I had to survive for twenty four hours.But this time, I didn’t receive a system notice showing the quest details prior.The only indication I had about something like this happening was the surprise quest that I was informed that I would receive after surviving the third challenge.This time it was different however.‘I’m not exactly sure of what’s going on, but one thing is for sure, we’re all here to compete for something, so I should stay alert,’ I thought to myself.As we waited, our attention was suddenly diverted when we heard a loud voice beam behind us.It was a man with a horn, and he screamed at the top of his voice to gather everyone’s attention toward him.Welcome everyone, to the Battle of the Players!‘Battle of the players? I need more information about this whole situation, system,’ I thought, expecting to receive a panel f
Regressor With A Billionaire System Finally An Explanation: One
"These games you mentioned," I asked Marcus, "what more can you tell me about them? What exactly are we expected to do?"Marcus rubbed his chin thoughtfully before responding. "The games can take many forms, Damon. Sometimes they're tests of combat prowess, other times they involve solving puzzles or navigating treacherous environments. And occasionally, they require diplomacy or cunning to outwit your opponents.""One thing to keep in mind," Marcus added, "is that each game or challenge can have its own unique set of rules. For instance, in this particular game, we're not allowed to use our systems."I looked at him in disbelief. "Wait, what? Why would they give us these abilities and then take them away?"‘I already noticed that my system was disabled, just like the other time this happened,’ I thought to myself.“You’ve seen something like this before right? A random quest where you’re just pulled out of your normal world for no reason, and you can’t use your system till you comple

A Vantage Point
“Genesis, I don’t intend to engage them in a prolonged battle. My plan is simple: I’ll transport them to a specific location in another world, use Starforge to unleash an all-out attack, and then transport myself back to my world before they can retaliate. I won’t give them a chance to regroup. It will be swift and decisive.”I stood firm in my conviction, determined to see this through, despite the risks.Genesis remained silent for a few moments, processing the information.Genesis let out a long sigh, almost as if the system itself was struggling to come to terms with my proposed plan.[Damon, with the potential for so many things to go wrong, I must give you a more honest assessment of the situation. Based on my calculations, I estimate your chances of success at only 10%. This is an extremely risky endeavor. If even one variable does not go as planned, you could be facing a formidable enemy without my support, and your odds of survival would diminish drastically.]I took a deep b
A Daring Plan
As the garments glowed, Genesis's voice rang out once again, its appraisal clear and concise.[Holy Garments of the High Pontiff (Legendary, Level 70)][Effect: +300 Intelligence, +5% Holy Damage, +15% Resistance to Dark Magic, Spell: Holy Shield, Blessing of the Pontiff]I considered the garments carefully, recognizing the potential they offered me. While I couldn't use the Grimoire, these robes could prove invaluable in my journey.It was from one high level equipment to another, but I couldn't keep this up for long.Considering the amount of damage they could potentially cause to my world, as well as the constant sneak attacks, I knew I had to get moving…quickly.However, there was still one more thing I needed to confirm."Genesis, the skills I obtain each time I'm attacked, are they permanent?” I conveyed my thoughts toward it expecting a response.[Damon, the skills you obtain through the Counter skill are indeed temporary. Cognos provided you with the ability to create these t
Foes
[Skill Created: Celestial Shield (Lv. 1)][Skill Activated: Celestial Shield (Lv. 1)]A shimmering, silver-white energy shield manifested around me, just in time to deflect the beam of light with a resounding CLANG!Though I still felt the intense heat, the shield held, protecting me from the destruction of the safe house. My whole line of sight was enveloped in smoke, and my vision was hazy.Suddenly, another panel manifested before my eyes.[Skill Created: Celestial Gust (Lv. 1)]I raised my hands, channeling the power of the wind to clear the smoke around me. With a simple gesture, I activated the new skill:[Skill Activated: Celestial Gust (Lv. 1)]A burst of air rushed through the safe house, scattering the smoke and revealing the aftermath of the destruction.The whole surrounding area was left in ashes, and right next to me was a horrible sight.Remains of Vlasdilav’s body lay there on the floor, a pile of bones nearly burnt to ashes.I felt the anger well up within me, whoeve
Incinerated
As Vladislav shared his experience with the Player Wars, I couldn't help but grin, a spark of recognition in my eyes. "I've been through it too," I admitted, nodding in solidarity."So you know what it's like then," he said, a sense of camaraderie growing between us."Yes. The Player Wars are no joke. They're brutal, but I survived. I'm still here." I said, a sense of pride and resilience in my voice."Looks like we have more in common than we thought," Vladislav replied.Curious about the skills that made him such a formidable assassin, I asked, "So, what are your skills? What's your main specialty?"Vladislav's eyes narrowed as he considered my question. "Assassination, obviously. My skill set includes Shadow Cloak, which lets me become invisible for a limited time. Silent Stalker, which muffles my footsteps and masks my presence. And, of course, Bloodlust. The more enemies I kill, the stronger I become.""Not to mention my enhanced senses. There's also Silent Strike, which allows
Vladsilav
I still felt some sort of apprehension at the fact that the other person in pursuit had escaped, but that was beyond my power now.All I had to do now was focus on what came next, and honestly, I had no idea what to do.‘Genesis, if only you were here,’ I thought to myself. ‘You'd know what to do.’Just as I finished that thought, I was startled by a sudden notification in my mind.NOTICESystem upgrade completed. Rebooting.A progress bar appeared, counting from 0% to 100%.The progress bar steadily crept towards 100%, and I couldn't shake the thought that Genesis would once again be available to me. ‘It'll be back, I'm sure of it,’ I thought, and I felt a surge of optimism and relief washing over me. The assassin, sensing my distraction, cleared his throat. "Do you have a plan?" he asked, a hint of concern in his voice."For now, we return to the safe house. I'll need some time to think things through." My response seemed to placate the assassin, and he nodded in agreement.We mad
An Unexpected Alliance
He then explained the quest log that they all received to me.The assassin, still trembling, began to reveal the contents of the quest log that had been shared among all players. His voice shook as he explained that I had been marked as a target, and every player had been transported to this world with the sole purpose of eliminating me. According to the quest, until my demise, none of the players would be able to leave my world. They were granted unrestricted access to their skills, allowing them to utilize their full potential in their pursuit to end my life. The rewards for succeeding in this quest were immensely valuable, with each contributing player being granted a single wish.This revelation shed light on the relentless pursuit I had been facing from them, as well as the desperate lengths that the players were willing to go to claim their rewards. It became clear that, to them, my life was nothing more than a means to an end, a stepping stone to fulfilling their deepest d
A Death Mission
“Now it's my turn,” I said.The two men stared at me in horror, before making their moves.The assassin threw out some pouches to the floor which generated a dark mist, preventing me from seeing them.I brought out my wings and flapped them with so much might that it generated enough wind to disperse the mist.However, they were nowhere to be found.I closed my eyes and heightened my senses, searching intently for any hint that they might have decided to give away.By combining my Draconic senses with Thought Acceleration, I was able to comb the vast expanse of land in mere moments.Suddenly my ears picked something up to my left, it was the assassin, using yet another camouflage skill.I flew toward him at top speed and crashed into the ground right in front of him.I got up and paced angrily toward him. “Give me one good reason why I shouldn't kill you right now,” I said.The assassin, realizing he had been discovered, quickly activated a skill that shrouded him in an aura of dark e
A New Ability
A wave of confusion swept over me as I watched the two men recoil back in fear of me. "What's going on? Did you feel that too?" the assassin asked, a hint of uncertainty in his voice."Yes, I did," the other man replied, and he locked his eyes onto mine. "I don't know what he did, but he feels like an entirely different person from when I first faced him."I couldn't help but ponder their reactions. ‘Huh? Why did they suddenly back away from me? I don't feel any different from before, so what's wrong?’ I thought, perplexed by the situation.I decided to try contacting Genesis again, hoping to shed some light on the matter. ‘Genesis,’ I thought. However, once again, I received no response.The silence was as puzzling as the men's reactions, and I couldn't help but wonder what had changed. ‘This all began after my meeting with Cognos, what did he do?’ I thoughtDespite the lack of communication from Genesis, I knew I had to press on.“Tch, you snooze you lose, I'm about to steal my p
A New Power
Cognos looked at me with a mix of understanding and concern. "You must understand, young one, with great power comes great responsibility. The pursuit of power alone often leads to a dark and destructive path."I felt impatient, my mind was simply fixated on the quest he'd entrusted me with. "How am I supposed to carry out the quest you gave me then?" I asked, and the frustration was clear in my voice.Cognos paused, then reluctantly nodded. "Very well. If power is what you seek, I shall grant it to you. I will give you the power to counter anything that stands in your way."I stepped closer, with a look of curiosity mixing with anticipation. "How?" I asked."Come closer," he said. I complied, and he placed a hand on my head. A comforting warmth spread through me, soothing and invigorating at the same time. It felt like pure energy was flowing into me. When he finally removed his hand, the sensation remained, leaving me feeling stronger and more capable than ever before. I didn't kn
