Regressor With A Billionaire System A Thorn In Their Side
****Four years later.‘Oh, how the years have flown by,’ I thought to myself as I mounted the podium to give my speech.As I stepped onto the graduation hall's stage, I couldn't help but marvel at how quickly the past four years had passed. I was dressed in a flowing graduation gown, and had my cap perched atop my head.I had a colorful sash raped around my neck, and I felt a surge of pride and nostalgia.The auditorium was filled with excited chatter and anticipation, as my fellow graduates, their families, and friends eagerly awaited my speech.The sea of faces in the crowd seemed to blur together, but I could pick out the beaming faces of Michael, Emily, and other loved ones who had come to support me on this momentous day.I approached the podium, and adjusted the microphone.I cleared my throat as I prepared to address the audience. Taking a deep breath, I began, "Standing here today, surrounded by my peers and loved ones, I am filled with gratitude and a sense of accomplishme

****I made my way to my car and threw my belongings into the back seat.I closed the door and rested on the side of the car, I was very tired.I noticed someone approaching me from my right, and I turned to see Tucker, who was beaming with a smile on his face and two other people I couldn't recognize, probably his parents.As they came closer, it became evidentt that they were indeed his parents, and their eyes were filled with gratitude and warmth."Mom, Dad, this is Damon," Tucker introduced, with a sense of pride. "He's the one I've been telling you about."I extended my hand to Tucker's father, giving him a firm handshake – a handshake between two men who understood the significance of the moment. "It's a pleasure to meet you, sir," I said, with a steady and sincere voice.I turned to Tucker's mother, and opened my arms, inviting her into a warm embrace. As I hugged her, she whispered a heartfelt "Thank you," and her voice trembled with emotion. I felt my shoulder getting damp
Regressor With A Billionaire System A Failed Attempt
However, I still felt like I was lacking in so many ways.This was the result of countless years spent in different training simulations and four years in the real world.In that time I'd completed various quests, traveled to other worlds to unlock my mana cores, obtained several races and classes and so much more.And yet, I still felt under prepared for what was to come.One thing was for sure though, whatever came toward me for a fight, I wouldn't go down that easily.I got close to the porch and was about to open the door when it opened suddenly from the inside.“Welcome home Master Damon,” the voice from inside said, it was Benjamin.I made up my mind that I would take him out of the shackles of working for the Darhk family and give him the life he truly deserves back then, and I did.It took a lot of effort and persuasion to get him to accept, but after a couple of months of me constantly pestering him, he agreed.The funny part was that he refused to take my money and enjoy his
Regressor With A Billionaire System Sending A Message
He sat up and began to scream loudly.“Get away! Get back!” He screamed frantically without looking in any particular direction.I walked up to him and bent down next to him.“Hey, hey, look at me,” I said while snapping his fingers in front of his face.“Uh, huh, who-who are you?” He asked as he tried to get his bearings. “Argh, my head,” he groaned in pain.“Benjamin, please fetch me a damp towel and an ice pack for him, he seems to still be in shock,” I said and he nodded in response, instantly leaving to carry out my request.[Damon, you do realize you don't need to go through such a hassle to get the information you need right?]‘Oh really? And what do you think an easier method would be?’ I thought.[You can utilize your advanced sensory and cognitive abilities to analyze his physiological responses and determine if he is being truthful or deceptive, Damon. By questioning him directly, you can monitor his heart rate, breathing patterns, and other signs to detect any indications
Regressor With A Billionaire System Returning Home
I loaded all the men into the back of a pickup truck and drove down the hill.It was a short drive before I got to the highway where I simply let them out by the side of the road.I didn't know what else to do that with them. Killing them would be very unnecessary, and dropping them at the front of a police station would arouse suspicion. I could easily have gotten my face caught by a security camera or something else, so letting them off here was the best choice.Of course other road users would notice this and call the cops, but I'd be long gone by then, and I'd just dump the car in a lake after.I did this and returned home shortly, where Benjamin had cleaned up whatever meds was made.He confirmed that he'd moved his family to a safe location and I nodded in approval.“So, what happens now Master Damon?” He asked me.“Now,” I began. “Now I return home,” I said.“It's been years sir,” Benjamin replied.“I'm sure they'll be happy to see their long lost son pay them a visit,” I said
Regressor With A Billionaire System Confronting The Elders
I walked in and no one seemed to be home.Looking left and right, I proceeded to my father's study, to greet him with my presence.When I got to the entrance I could hear the sound of glass breaking and a person's screams inside.The voice sounded familiar, and after hearing it a few more times I was able to discern who it was, Stephen.‘My father never lets anyone else in his study, never. He's probably not home,’ I thought to myself.I proceeded to knock on the door. “Leave! And don't come back!” He screamed from inside, and I smiled to myself and opened the door.His back was turned to me, as he was facing some books on the far end of the room.“I said not to come in!” He screamed and turned, without looking at who it was, he threw another glass cup right at me.I caught the class cup with a firm grip and placed it on a stool next to me, and when he looked and saw that it was me.“Well that's certainly not a way to welcome your brother back home after he's been gone for so long,” I

He hit the floor with a loud thud and groaned as he landed.The pieces of broken wood scattered across the entrance, and I did my best to navigate through them without getting pricked.The impact had generated a lot of dust, which temporarily blinded those inside the room.I could hear people coughing as the dust dissipated, and when it finally cleared, the reactions of the people in the room was priceless.The patriarch was the first to notice me, and the sight of me nearly gave him a heart attack.Everyone else stared at him, wondering why he was acting the way he was.He slowly raised his finger and pointed in my direction, and they all turned to where I stood.The dust cleared enough for them to see my face finally, and they all stood there stunned.It was a very funny experience for me, and I began to approach where the patriarch was seated.I beckoned for him to move out of his seat, and he stared at me with such malice in his eyes.However, reluctantly, he eventually stood and
Regressor With A Billionaire System Arrival
I returned back to the vehicle promptly to head home.Benjamin was seated on the bonnet of the car patiently awaiting my return, when he saw me, he got into the vehicle promptly.I took my position in the driver's seat and started the engine.“How did it go?” Benjamin asked me.“I guess we'll find out,” I responded and took a sharp turn to head out of the building.I was however blocked by another vehicle, and was stopped in my tracks.The driver of the vehicle stepped out, in attempts to persuade me to reverse so they could come through.Once I saw the vehicle, I recognized it instantly.It was my father's signature black limousine, and I confirmed this when he stepped out of the driver's seat.At this point I'd already reversed and turned down another route, and just as I was about to leave, I locked eyes with him.I wasn't sure if it was my imagination, but I thought I saw him smile.Either way it didn't matter, and I zoomed out of the compound.A few moments later, we were back on

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

[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

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
