"Next step: Use the funds to establish a company or strengthen your position in the business world. Choose ‘Establish Company’ or ‘Strengthen Position’ to proceed."
Rafael paused for a moment. Establishing a company would give him power and influence, while strengthening his position would provide quicker access to crucial information. But after everything he had gone through, Rafael knew exactly what to do.
“Establish a company,” Rafael answered with firm determination.
Suddenly, his phone screen displayed detailed steps to establish a company from scratch. The system guided him on how to choose a business sector, select a location, and suggested company names that would lay the foundation for his new life and revenge.
With this enormous funding, Rafael knew his future was now in his hands. He was no longer a victim; he was now the main player who could change his own destiny with the help of the system.
"This is just the beginning," he muttered, a confident smile forming on his face.
“Okay, let’s think about it. Which business has the greatest potential? Does the system have any recommendations?” he murmured, staring at the screen in front of him.
The system presented several options on Rafael’s phone screen: Technology and Innovation (AI, Big Data, and Cybersecurity), Real Estate and Property Development, Investment in Natural Resources and Renewable Energy, Healthcare and Pharmaceutical Industry, and E-Commerce and Global Logistics.
Rafael pondered for a moment, weighing each option. Each offered great profit potential, but he also knew that to succeed, he had to choose wisely. Given what had just happened to him, a business that could give him full control over information and resources seemed very appealing.
“Technology and Innovation… That’s it,” Rafael muttered, nodding to himself. "The world is moving towards digital. Artificial intelligence, big data, and cybersecurity... This will be a great future. I can start from here and grow rapidly."
The system immediately displayed further details about opportunities in technology and innovation, including emerging startups, potential partners, and ways to access cutting-edge technologies. Rafael felt confident this was the right move.
He opened his phone screen wider, scanning every detail provided by the system. Within seconds, he obtained complete information about several rapidly growing tech startups. There were opportunities to invest in AI, big data processing, and cybersecurity solutions that were in high demand by major companies. All of this seemed very enticing.
"This is it. Everything I need to build a digital empire," Rafael thought, his eyes glowing with ambition.
The system gave additional instructions:
“Find strategic partners. Several big names are involved in this field. Choose a partner who has the vision and resources to support rapid expansion.”
Rafael quickly noted down a few big names that could be potential partners. These weren’t just any companies, but major firms at the forefront of technological development. However, Rafael knew that to build relationships with them, he needed to prove that he was not just a small player.
“To play at their level, I have to be smarter and faster than them,” Rafael muttered with determination.
The system suggested he contact several experienced investors in the tech world, including venture capitalists who could assist with funding and secure the company’s position in the market. Rafael knew this was a crucial first step.
“Alright, I’ll build this. In no time, they’ll know who I am.”
With a clear plan in mind, Rafael began his search. Every decision he made was now based on one goal—not just to gain wealth, but to bring down those who had wronged him.
Ding!!!
Rafael was startled by the sound of a notification on his phone. A new message appeared on the screen:
"Special Mission: Find someone trustworthy to start the business."
He grinned, realizing that although he could do many things on his own, he couldn’t manage every aspect of this large business by himself. He needed someone he could trust, someone with exceptional abilities and a vision that aligned with his own.
"Who can I trust?" he murmured, thinking. Faces of a few people appeared in his mind, but Rafael knew that building a solid team was not an easy task.
The system added more instructions:
“Check people with backgrounds in technology, management, or finance. Conduct a thorough analysis to determine who can work with full loyalty.”
Rafael began digging deeper. In the tech world, he knew there were some professionals with great reputations who often played a vital role in the success of a company. However, it wasn’t just intelligence that was needed, but also integrity and a strong commitment to the vision he had.
“Who can understand my ambition and be willing to take risks?” Rafael thought hard.
The first person that came to mind was Dirk, a former colleague who was smart, experienced in managing large projects, and had a steady character. Dirk could be the right person. But, Rafael needed to ensure whether Dirk could be fully trusted.
“Alright, I’ll find out more about Dirk,” Rafael decided, continuing his search for the right person.
With the system’s help, he quickly gathered complete information about Dirk and several other professionals, ensuring he chose someone who was not only competent but also loyal to the grand vision he was building.
Rafael opened the system app on his phone and accessed the file about Dirk. His full name, work experience, and references in the profile showed that Dirk was a professional experienced in leading large projects. However, Rafael knew that technical skills alone weren’t enough. He needed to ensure that Dirk had the integrity required to collaborate on a high-risk project like the one he wanted to build.
The system immediately gave the option to look deeper into Dirk’s personal life, including social records and business relationships he had formed. Rafael hesitated for a moment but then decided to proceed. He needed to know everything to choose a partner he could truly trust.
After some time, Rafael found some interesting information: Dirk had a clean reputation, not involved in scandals or questionable actions. However, he had just ended a partnership with a large company, which might indicate a vision mismatch or other reasons that needed further exploration.
“But this doesn’t sound like bad signs,” Rafael thought, “He had the courage to choose his own path, and that could be a good thing.”
The system reminded Rafael:
“To ensure further compatibility, conduct a small test. Assign a project or task that can reveal his thinking process and commitment to the goal.”
Rafael nodded, feeling more confident about the next step. He decided to contact Dirk, offering a small yet challenging project that would test his integrity and management skills.
“Alright, let’s start by contacting Dirk. If he can handle this, he might really be the right person to join me in building this company,” Rafael thought as he tried reaching out to Dirk.

"Okay, Jagur. This time, you need to cooperate with me. If I succeed, I won't ditch you; instead, I'll modify you really well, so don't be fussy anymore," Rafael said, patting the hood of his old car."Alright, I need to meet Dirk." Rafael climbed into his car and tried to start it, but it didn’t start right away."Come on, Jagur. Start," Rafael mumbled, trying again. Still, the engine didn’t turn on."Don't sulk now. This time, I’m counting on you, handsome Jagur," he said, attempting to start the car again. This time, the engine roared to life."Ha... you're only starting because I praised you. Stubborn old Jagur," Rafael grumbled, and as if understanding, the car stalled again."Geez, you're really sulking. Jagur, come on," Rafael sighed, frustrated with the behavior of his car that had been with him for years."Geez, you're acting like a Gen Z kid, sulking over the smallest thing," he muttered as he got out of the car."Alright, let's see what’s causing you to sulk."Rafael opened

He quickly pulled open the car door, although it was a bit heavy. The woman inside stared at him with a mix of fear and hope."Get out now! I'm here to help!" Rafael shouted as he extended his hand.The woman, though hesitant, immediately grabbed Rafael's hand and got out of the car. However, one of the criminals had recovered from the shock and started chasing them.Rafael grabbed a weapon lying on the road and immediately pointed it at the man."Let her go! Stay out of our business!" said one of the criminals, also aiming his weapon at Rafael."I wish I could, but the system forbids it," Rafael replied, still walking away with the woman behind him."System?" The man frowned."What system?""This one!" Rafael picked up a bottle cap from the asphalt that he had thrown earlier and hurled it at the man, hitting his head."Come on, hurry to my car!" Rafael urgently pulled the woman toward the Jagur, hoping the old car would cooperate this time.As they neared the car, gunshots echoed in

"For now, you're safe here," Rafael said as he opened the door to the house.Elena looked around the dusty, small room. "Aren't you sure? This house is small and dirty," Elena complained, pinching her nose because of the dust. "This place is safe. Far from the city's hustle and bustle, you won't be caught here," Rafael replied as he pulled the white cloth off a chair. "Whose house is this?" Elena asked. "My grandmother's house. It's been empty for a long time," he answered casually. "I don’t want to stay here!" Elena quickly refused. Rafael stopped what he was doing and turned to look at Elena. "Sure, go ahead. Anyway, I'm just helping you. It's not like I have anything to do with the problem you're facing," Rafael said casually, giving her a flat look. "If you want, you can rent an apartment or a hotel, your choice." Elena sighed. "This place is so dirty, Rafael. How could I stay here?" she complained.

“Elena,” Rafael finally called.Elena turned to him. “What?”“I’m going to trust you for now.

We’ll only survive if we help each other.”Rafael nodded. “Alright. Then, can I know what your next plan is?”Elena sighed briefly and looked at Rafael seriously. “My plan is simple, but dangerous,” she said.“First, I need to make sure the data I have stays safe. If it falls into their hands, everything will be ruined. I need time to crack the additional code in this file. I’m sure there’s bigger information they’re hiding.”Rafael frowned. “Bigger information? What do you mean?”Elena nodded. “Yes, this document isn’t just about corruption or embezzlement. I suspect there’s a larger network behind the company, maybe something involving illegal trade or other criminal activities. If we can uncover everything, we can destroy them co

"But I need to talk to you, Dirk," Rafael insisted."I've already told you. I don't have time!" Dirk snapped coldly.Rafael was undeterred by Dirk's frosty demeanor. He knew that to get information from someone like Dirk, he had to be more persuasive. Rafael pulled out a chair and sat down across from Dirk without an invitation."I'm not here to talk about the past, Dirk. I'm here because there's something bigger we need to deal with. Something you might really like," Rafael said firmly.Dirk stared at him for a long time, as if evaluating whether Rafael was serious or just looking for trouble. He leaned back in his chair and sighed."Oh, something I would like? What is it?" Dirk asked, intrigued by what Rafael might offer."I'm planning to start a digital company. And I'm hoping you'll help me and work with me," Rafael replied."Oh, start a company? What will I get out of it?" Dirk asked, giving Rafael a condescending look.Rafael didn’t flinch at Dirk’s dismissive gaze. He knew that

Knock! Knock! Knock!Upon hearing the knocking sound, Elena peeked through the window, holding a bat in her hand. When she realized it was Rafael, she quickly opened the bedroom door, allowing him to enter while supporting an unconscious and seriously injured man.“Who is he? Did you hit someone?” Elena asked in surprise.“Tsk... Don’t be quick to judge. I found him in the middle of the road. Help me lay him down quickly,” Rafael said.Elena immediately straightened the sofa and placed a pillow at the end. Rafael gently laid the man on the sofa and sighed heavily.“Ugh, he’s heavy,” he complained as he sat on the single sofa.“He’s seriously injured. What really happened, Rafael?” Elena asked, looking at him.“I don’t know… I found him lying on the road. He asked for my help but forbade me from taking him to the hospital,” Rafael answered.“Do you have anything, like a first aid kit?” Elena asked.“I think I have one in the car. Wait here,” Rafael said, standing up and heading outside

"I need to ask the system," Rafael muttered.Rafael quickly grabbed his phone and activated the smart system he relied on. He pointed the phone's camera at the unconscious man in front of him, hoping the system could identify him. After a few seconds of scanning, the phone screen displayed surprising information.The man's name was Leonard Steele, a director and owner of a company on the brink of bankruptcy. Rafael read the details carefully. Leonard's company had previously been involved in technology, but due to fierce competition and poor management, the business was near collapse. However, something caught Rafael’s attention—Leonard had a reputation as a highly intelligent man with extensive knowledge in technology and business.Rafael paused in thought. This might not just be a coincidence. Leonard could be a valuable asset if Rafael could handle the situation wisely. With Leonard's experience and intelligence, Rafael believed the man could help him achieve his dream of establish

"Uncle, I really can't figure you out. Are you crazy, cunning, or a genius?" Sienna asked.Rafael smirked. "Maybe all three. But one thing's for sure—I don’t like anyone interfering with our business.""So... what's your plan to take over Black Wings?" Sienna asked."Manipulation," Rafael replied with a smile."Deceiving them? How?" Sienna grew even more curious."We’ll discuss it later at lunch with the others. Oh, by the way, is the grand opening party for the café still happening tonight?" Rafael asked."Yes, Elena and Dirk already went to buy lots of beer for the party," Sienna answered."Alright then, I'm going to take a shower first. See you at the dining table later," Rafael said before walking away.Sienna watched him leave. "That man is completely insane! What exactly is he planning?" she muttered.

"Uncle!" Sienna called out as she climbed up to the third floor, only to find Rafael working out in the gym, wearing only sweatpants, his upper body bare."What is it?" Rafael asked."You were looking for me. Why?" Sienna asked as she sat on one of the benches."Yeah, I have something to ask you. Just wait a moment. I'm not done yet. Sit tight and enjoy the beautiful view," Rafael said, continuing his workout."What a beautiful view! You're so skinny," Sienna teased."Hey! You perverted kid. I meant the aquarium beside you, dummy. There are fish in it—just watch them," Rafael replied."Why would I? I don’t even like colorful fish," Sienna retorted."Tsk... You really don’t understand beauty," Rafael muttered.Rafael finished his last set and wiped the sweat off his face with a towel. He walked over to Sienna and sat down on the bench across from her. "Alright, I'm done now. I want to ask you something."Sienna looked at Rafael curiously. "What is it?""You once said you were part of B

"Martin, you're here?" Rafael greeted him as he saw the man enter their base."Yeah. You haven't gone to bed yet?" Martin asked, looking surprised."Not sleepy yet," Rafael replied. "Aren't you with Dirk?""No. Dirk went to see the suppliers," Martin answered.Rafael sat on a café chair near the barista counter. He poured a drink into a glass and handed it to Martin."Sit down for a bit," Rafael said, patting the chair beside him.Martin nodded and took the seat next to Rafael. He took the offered glass and sipped the drink. "Thanks," he murmured.The café was silent. Only the ticking of the clock and the faint rustling of the wind outside the window could be heard."You look exhausted," Rafael commented, studying Martin closely. "Is something wrong out there?"Martin let out a deep sigh, leaning back in his chair. "The survey went well. But that place is heavily guarded. Cameras everywhere. Their guards even use advanced communication devices."Rafael nodded slowly, his gaze sharp. "

Rafael stepped out of his room upon hearing the commotion. He walked towards the cafe and was surprised to see several thugs there. The customers looked frightened, and Elena was seen arguing with them. Coincidentally, Dirk and Martin were out on an errand assigned by Rafael."What's going on?" Rafael asked as he approached Elena."They came demanding money, claiming they own this place," Elena explained."Who is he? Your boss?" one of the thugs asked arrogantly.Rafael casually put his hands in his pockets, his face remaining calm though his eyes radiated authority. "Yes, I own this place. And who are you to come here and cause trouble in my cafe?"One of the thugs stepped forward arrogantly, his broad shoulders and condescending gaze exuding dominance. "We control this area. If you want your business to run smoothly, pay us for protection," he said with a smirk.Rafael let out a soft chuckle, his eyes scanning the frightened customers. Some were already standing, ready to leave. He

"El, wait a moment," Elena called out, stopping Rafael in his tracks. He turned to face her."Yes?" Rafael responded."I want to talk to you for a bit," Elena said."In that case, let's talk on the balcony," Rafael suggested. Elena nodded in agreement.They walked toward the balcony on the second floor and stood near the railing."This place is quite comfortable and quiet. Not too crowded or noisy," Rafael remarked.Elena gazed at the street near their shop. "Yes, at least it's a good place to hide," she replied."You're right. By the way, what did you want to talk to me about?" Rafael asked, turning to look at her."Oh, right. I wanted to ask if you're serious about your plan to establish a trade guild," Elena said. "We're fugitives, and you know NextWave's men are everywhere. We could be discovered," she continued. "And taking suppliers away from NextWave—that's going to be very difficult, right? What if those suppliers report us to them?"Rafael saw the worry and hesitation in Elen

"So, is everyone here?" Rafael asked, looking at the people in front of him."Yes, we're all here," Elena replied."How was the café today? Still busy?" Rafael asked as he sat on a single chair right in front of them in the meeting room on the second floor."Yeah, to the point where my back feels like it's about to break," Elena complained."We might need more staff to manage the café. But we can’t just hire anyone carelessly," Rafael said."Get a chef too, Uncle. So we can eat good food," Sienna added.Rafael chuckled at Sienna’s complaint. "You, always thinking about good food, huh?"Sienna shrugged without guilt. "Well, better than eating whatever’s available every day. Besides, if the food is good, customers will want to stay longer at the café."Ivory nodded in agreement. "That’s true. Especially if we create a special menu exclusive to our café. That would be a major attraction."Rafael leaned back in his chair. "Alright, we'll look for a chef. But like I said, we can’t just hir

Rafael was in his room, browsing the shopping feature in the system. Many new features had been unlocked after successfully completing several missions."Oh, there's a miraculous potion for rapid healing," he muttered, quickly purchasing the bottle to test its effects on his stab wound.Rafael picked up a small, dark blue bottle labeled "Rapid Healing Elixir." He frowned in curiosity as he observed the shimmering golden liquid inside."Wow, this looks like something out of a fantasy movie," he murmured while opening the bottle. A fresh, cooling scent immediately filled the air. Without hesitation, Rafael drank the potion. The taste was a mix of mint and honey, refreshing his throat.Instantly, he felt a warm sensation spreading from his stomach throughout his entire body. The pain in his shoulder gradually faded, and even the lingering soreness began to disappear. Rafael removed the bandage from his shoulder and was shocked to see that the once red and swollen stab wound had dried up,

Rafael slowly opened his eyes. He looked around the room and realized he was in his bedroom."Ugh!" he grimaced as he tried to sit up from his reclined position."Have I been unconscious since last night?" Rafael muttered as he struggled to get up, though his shoulder still throbbed with pain.Dirk, who had just entered the room, immediately approached him."Don't move too much, Raf. Your shoulder wound hasn't fully healed yet," he said in a firm tone.Rafael smirked, though his face tensed from the pain. "Looks like I'm still alive, huh?""Lucky for you. Otherwise, Sienna might have gone to the afterlife just to hunt you down," Dirk joked, his eyes filled with relief.Rafael chuckled weakly, his laughter slightly strained. "That kid really can't stay calm."Dirk sat back in his chair. "She's stubborn but she cares about you. Elena was just as worried.
