2023-09-25 12:37:08"Don't you have a brain? Everything you wrote in this report is wrong!"
Warrick Rauveron closed his eyes as Jeff, the sales team leader, threw the report document in his face. Everyone in the room immediately turned their heads, gasping in shock.Everyone in the Republic of Radix knew Rauveron, one of the most powerful conglomerate families. And Warrick was the Rauveron family's first son.Unfortunately, Warrick was disregarded by his family because he was not a genius like his stepbrother, Zayden Rauveron.Everyone recognized Warrick as a weak and stupid young master. Because of his low status within the Rauveron family, he stuck as a salesman, whereas Zayden rose to the position of Chief Financial Officer."Do you want me to report this to your father?" Jeff threatened, his arms crossed across his chest."N-no, I don't. Please forgive me," Warrick finally said something. His hands were trembling as he continued to beg Jeff.It was an open secret that Ernest, the head of the Rauveron family, considered Warrick a disgrace. If Ernest discovered that his useless son was causing trouble, he would be enraged and throw Warrick out."Because I've been working a lot of overtime recently, I accidentally made a mistake in the sales report," Warrick explained, hoping Jeff would understand his situation. "Please forgive me just this once!"Nonetheless, no matter how much Warrick begged, Jeff had no intention of giving him a second chance. As Warrick begged him, the sales team leader smirked."You're a disgrace to the Rauveron family! You should look at Zayden. At his young age, he could be the Chief Financial Officer!"Silently, Warrick gritted his teeth. Although he was very upset, he managed to hide his feelings well. No one noticed the fleeting change in his expression."What are you waiting for?" Jeff growled in annoyance as he pushed Warrick to the floor. "Get the hell out of here! Starting tomorrow, you don't have to go to the office anymore!"Feeling angry and humiliated, Warrick chose to give up on his job. After all, it was pointless to argue with Jeff since the team leader was determined to fire him.Warrick got up from the floor and walked out while the other workers looked at him mockingly. They must have been happy to see the son of a famous family receive such humiliation.When Warrick was in the office lobby, he was approached by Zayden."Isn't it not break time yet? What happened? Let me know if you're having a hard time. I'll help you," Zayden spoke, showing a worried face.Anyone else might have been fooled by Zayden's expression but not with Warrick. After so many years of living together, Warrick had learned about his brother's genuine character.Zayden was always courteous in public. He is, nonetheless, the most cunning person you will ever meet. He was the mastermind behind the mistakes in Warrick's sales report.To get rid of Warrick's remaining inheritance rights, Zayden's first step was to make his brother's life miserable."You haven't answered me yet," Zayden spoke again in a fake anxious tone.Warrick smiled. "Thank you for your concern, Zay. I don't want to disturb you, so I'll solve my problems alone.""Alright. Don't hesitate to call me if you need help."Zayden patted Warrick on the shoulder before walking away. The friendly expression instantly disappeared from his face.He thought, 'Well, enjoy your time because you will be ruined before you can solve your problems.'Meanwhile, Warrick returned home on his old motorcycle. He arrived at a small house in the suburbs of Cordyline City.In that small house, he lived with Aelish, his wife. They had been married for three years due to an arranged marriage.Aelish came from the Chafort family, who owned the largest entertainment company in the country. She was the child of a mistress.Ernest deliberately married Warrick to Aelish to emphasize that he did not recognize his first son. Zayden, on the other hand, married the only daughter of an influential family.No one knew for sure why Ernest hated Warrick so much. Most people assumed he did it under the influence of Renata, his second wife, Zayden's mother."I'm home."Warrick sluggishly opened the door. It was still daylight, and Aelish was working, so she was not home to greet him.He dashed to the kitchen, hungry. He opened the fridge to see a chocolate cake with the words 'Happy Birthday' inscribed."Did Aelish make this for me? I even forgot that today is my birthday."The cake made Warrick's mood change slightly. He took it from the refrigerator and looked at it for a long time.Today, he was twenty-five years old. If his calculation was not wrong, 'it' should have appeared by now."Am I a fool for believing that? But I'm sure I'm not hallucinating that time."Warrick continued to wonder while staring at the birthday cake. A 'ding' sound was heard momentarily, and a notification window appeared in the air.[System host has been found…][Requirement: Maintain a weak image for 10 years (completed).][Congratulations! The Gods' Blessing System has been activated!][Host: Warrick RauveronLevel: 1 (Need a total of 2,000 system points to level up)System Points: 1,000Skill Tokens: 1,500Shop: Open at level 2System Points and Skill Tokens will be obtained from quests given by the Gods. Quests will appear at certain times.]Warrick's face lit up when he saw the notification window. "Finally, this is what I've been waiting for!"[Chytix, God of Time and Future, is amazed by your patience.][Axara, Goddess of Wealth and Fortune, is interested in investing in you.][Lios and Lias, Guarantors of Torture and Vengeance, come to bless you.]"Woah, Lord Zegther really kept his promise!"When Warrick was fifteen, he experienced a car accident that left his mother dead.At that time, he was in a coma for three months. Zegther, the God of Justice, came into his dreams every day and informed him that the accident was planned by someone.Zegther required Warrick to pretend weak for ten years to test his patience and determination. If he was successful, Zegther promised to offer him a system and blessings from other deities.The reason Zegther came to Warrick's dream was because Grace Vernidras, Warrick's mother, was one of his loyal devotees. When Grace prayed, she never desired for herself and instead begged for her son.Warrick initially did not believe it, even though he recognized Zegther from his mother. People in this country had abandoned belief in deities long ago.But he still believed them because of his mother. As time went on, he began to believe Zegther in his dreams. It was because Zegther told him of his mother's kindnesses to him, which no one else knew about."Starting today...," Warrick stared straight at the system window, "I will destroy anyone who stands in the way of my revenge!"[Goddess Axara invests 'One Unlimited Black Card' in you.][Lord Chytix grants you the ability 'Eyes that See the Future' (F).This ability allows you to see ten minutes into the future.Skill Tokens required: 100 tokens per one skill use.Usage limit: Once a day.][Lios and Lias bless you with the ability 'Hands of Torment' (D).Increase the damage your hands' attacks cause for one hour.Skill Tokens required: 400 tokens per one skill use.Usage limit: Four times a day.Cool down: Half-hour.][All ability levels will increase if you keep using them. Your actions may attract and discourage other gods from blessing you. So, be careful with your actions.][Good luck!]The first thing Warrick did was check a black card that suddenly appeared in his hand. He had never held a black card before, but he could tell this was real.The card Warrick held now was different from his plastic bank card. This card, when he had it, felt strong and exclusive.Warrick had heard that black cards were made of titanium. The card's design was also exclusive, featuring diamonds and gold. He touched the gold engraving of his name in amazement."Th-This card has no limit. What am I going to do with all this money?"Warrick held his black card with trembling hands. Although he was part of the Rauveron family, his father never gave him much money. This was the first time he held such an exclusive item as a black card."Calm yourself, Warrick. You don't need to be nervous. This is just the beginning. In the future, you will get more money to take revenge on the people who hurt your mother and humiliated you!"Warrick clenched his fists. He was determined to change. After all the humiliation, it was time to rise and take revenge. Everyone who looked down on him would regret it.[Ding!][Goddess Axara gives you a quest: Spend $100,000 today.Reward: 200 System Points.Punishment: None.]

The quest from Goddess Axara left Warrick wondering what he should buy. He wanted many things, but he did not know which one to buy first. "Well, I guess I'll buy some food first." Warrick put on a black mask before going to a fast food restaurant. He still did not fully trust the black card given by the system. If the card was fake, Warrick had planned to run away, and people would not know his face since he was wearing a mask. The people at the fast food restaurant paid no attention to Warrick despite his shabby appearance. Anyone could go for a fried chicken or a hamburger as the food was not too expensive. However, everyone's eyes were immediately drawn to Warrick when he pulled out a black card. Instead of being amazed at the card, they assumed Warrick was a scammer. "Look at that guy over there pulling out a black card! Is that real?""I don't think so. It's just a regular card and he bought a black card case, lol." "That's hilarious. He's trying so hard to look rich but

Warrick was excited at the thought that the Goddess Axara could bring him many benefits. But getting people to believe in the gods was not easy."What are you thinking about?" asked Brenna, confused by Warrick's sudden daydreaming. "I'm thinking of ways to get people to believe in the gods again," Warrick answered honestly, knowing Brenna could help him. "That's difficult. But I suggest you go to people who are in crisis and help them while telling them about the gods. You can also go to orphanages that have a religious background like this one. But don't pressure them to believe you."Warrick's cell phone suddenly rang, so he did not have time to respond to Brenna's suggestion. He asked permission to pick up the call. A puzzled frown appeared on Warrick's forehead as he saw the caller's name. "Aelish? Why is she calling me at this hour?" A man's voice was heard as soon as the call was connected. "If you want your wife to be safe, come to the abandoned bridge on the border of Co
Rise of the Useless Young Master 4. Warrick Goes Mad
Aelish worked as a craft service. Her job was to prepare food, drinks, and other necessities for the comfort of the film crew. Actually, Aelish had what it took to be a producer. She was a top graduate of Film and Television major. But Evie, her stepmother, did not give her a chance because she was the daughter of a mistress. The film crew often treated Aelish harshly on Evie's orders. Evie did allow Aelish to work at CFT Entertainment, but her real goal was to humiliate Aelish. "You're ten minutes late," Marvin, the producer, glared furiously at Aelish. "The whole crew is starving because of you!" Aelish frowned, surprised. She was sure she was not late, but she could guess that Marvin would continue to blame her. Therefore, she had no choice but to give in. "I'm sorry. There were a lot of people at the restaurant so I was a little late." "You're useless, just like your husband," mocked Lauren, the production accountant. The rest of the crew responded to Lauren's words with lo
Rise of the Useless Young Master 5. Avenge the In-laws
"What did you say, buying clothes?"Aelish thought she had misheard, so she repeated Warrick's words. Her husband's salary had always been spent on debt and food.There was no way Warrick had the money to buy clothes for the orphanage children. If he had, he would have bought clothes for himself since he had not bought a new one in months. Warrick had expected Aelish to react like that. "I got a bonus for meeting the sales target. And I want to give a lot of new clothes to the orphanage kids."Aelish was suspicious since Warrick never got any bonus from his job or help from his family. But she ended up following him because he seemed excited. They both arrived at CT Mall, aka the biggest mall in Cordyline City. Aelish was hesitant to enter because she had heard that this mall was favored by wealthy youngsters.The vehicles in the parking lot appeared expensive, confirming the rumors. Only Warrick's motorcycle was different; his old bike seemed to be an eyesore."Are you sure you wan

Emerald Bank would investigate anyone who used a deceptive black card. Aelish was aware of this and worried about Warrick. Like everyone else, she did not believe her husband had a black card. As far as she knew, Emerald Bank would only invite customers with a minimum spend of $250,000 annually. Warrick's salary as a salesman was doubtful as it depended on sales targets. Aelish knew for sure that he could not possibly have $250,000. Aelish wanted to prevent Warrick, but she was too late, as her husband had already approached a helper. "Can you tell me about this bracelet?" asked Warrick, pointing to a rose gold bracelet with an eagle engraved on it. Eunice, the helper, believed there was no use in discussing the bracelet's value because Warrick was unlikely to buy it. But to maintain her professionalism, she was forced to explain the bracelet."This is an 18k rose gold bracelet from last year's Winter Hawk Collection. It is set with diamonds and the chain is 110mm long."Warrick
Rise of the Useless Young Master 7. The mother-in-law's lies
Warrick noticed the fear in Evie's expression as he mentioned her name to customer service. Immediately, he learned that his mother-in-law was lying about knowing an Emerald Bank executive. "Why must you panic, Mom? Is it because you don't have any connections at Emerald Bank?"Evie became nervous as people stared suspiciously at her. Stammering, she replied, "D-Don't talk nonsense! That's slander. You have no proof of your accusations!""I only did what you did to me," Warrick shrugged. "In case you forgot, you also accused me of using a fake black card."The people who had been silent began to whisper, talking about the problem between Evie and Warrick."I know that woman. She's the wife of Chafort Entertainment's owner. And the girl next to her is Jane Chafort, a new actress known for working on films with renowned people.""Huh? But as far as I know, the Chafort family has no connection with Emerald Bank.""You're right. Emerald Bank is owned by the Nerelart family. My friend is
Rise of the Useless Young Master 8. Zayden is Furious
Gossip about Warrick having a black card had spread in some wealthy circles. People who saw Warrick at Hawk Jewelry Store always brought up the incident to their close friends.Tonight, Zayden met his friends for dinner at a well-known restaurant after finishing all his assignments. That's when he heard the gossip about Warrick."Hey, Zayden," Corine spoke when she saw Zayden finishing his beef steak. "Do you know anything about Warrick?"For a moment, a tense expression crossed Zayden's face. He thought Corine raised that question because she heard the news of Warrick's death.'Good, that idiot is finally dead. Kaden did his job well.' Zayden was happy within. But in front of his friends, he had to put on a worried face.With a stutter, he asked, "Wh-What happened to Warrick? Did something bad happen to him? I don't know anything because I came straight to meet you all after work.""A friend of mine said she saw Warrick at Hawk Jewelry Store," Corine replied, making everyone there c
Rise of the Useless Young Master 9. A Mysterious Quest
Aelish gripped Warrick's shirt tightly, staring fearfully at the mysterious men. She could not see their faces because they wore masks. "Are they sent by people who want revenge on you?" she guessed, remembering Warrick getting into trouble with three film crew members. Marvin did not come from a big family. But his parents were wealthy and well-known, so it was no surprise that they took extreme ways to beat up Warrick for touching their son. "I have chili spray," Aelish remembered the chili spray she always carried. "It might come in handy. I'll give it to you."Warrick stopped his motorcycle. He motioned for Aelish to stay where she was. "Keep the chili spray for you because it won't be useful." Aelish nodded. What Warrick said made sense. The chili spray was useless in defeating seven tall, muscular men."I'll beat them all, so I don't need to use your chili spray." Hearing Warrick's words, Aelish's eyes bulged in shock. She knew her husband had grown bolder since the Finch E

He will be responsible for the corruption of the project.""When will it be done? I want Harold on the news as soon as possible.""You have to be patient, sir. It's not just you who are involved with the project. Your people are working hard to eliminate evidence and make it all Harold's fault.""What about the mysterious man?""I'm sorry, sir. I haven't been able to trace his whereabouts. Even the Sky Vision workers don't know anything."Hearing that, Cassius' temper exploded.

They lit a campfire while eating dinner and chatting."Harold, you should ask Sky Vision to add more workers here. We're having trouble completing the bridge with the current number of workers," Clarence, the supervisor, ventured to speak up."Settle Mr. President's request quietly if you still want to live!" Harold snapped. He was the construction manager of Sky Vision, but he had sided with Cassius since a few months ago.The money that should have been used to increase the workforce was corrupted.

Warrick regularly contacted the alliance to monitor their activities. But not seeing him for two weeks must have made them uneasy.Like Zayden, the members of The Orchid Combine also thought that Warrick had been reassured by power and had forgotten about his plans for revenge. That's how humans are.The alliance members must have heard that Warrick was only focused on work. Those who initially believed in him would slowly wonder if his determination had changed.That was why Warrick would meet Lacey, who was taking a significant role in the alliance's mission this time: spying on the Laureves family."I was surprised when you said you wanted to see me right now," Lacey welcomed Warrick to her mansion in an elite residential neighborhood. She frowned at his appearance. "Are you avoiding someone?"Warrick nodded. "As expected from the leader of a scammers group, you guessed my intentions correctly.

He was willing to use his ability to spot potential investments to embarrass Zayden.His stepbrother had already proven to be a failure in solving the company's problems. This was a chance for him to show his skills."Announce that Orionis Star is cooperating with Stellar Investment Solutions!"At a meeting of the company's top brass, Warrick gave the absolute order. The news of the partnership would definitely attract the attention of potential clients."Is that okay?" Zayden asked skeptically.Warrick smiled. "SIS is limiting client acceptance indefinitely.

Everyone at CFT Entertainment had come to respect Aelish after Warrick officially became heir. But that was not the only contributing factor. Her success in I Want to Know also received a positive response.People initially dismissive of Aelish shut their mouths because her project did not end badly. They wondered why her movie got so many views."Now I know why! Warrick must have helped Aelish finance her project.""That makes sense. There are SIS ads in the movie, too.""I thought her project was successful because of her abilities, but it turns out her husband helped her.""She's just a former craft service for a movie crew. How did she manage to become a producer?"Some people in CFT secretly gathered around in the bathroom and talked about Aelish behind her back.

Warrick summoned all the company's higher-ups to an emergency meeting. It infuriated Zayden to have his strategic error pointed out to them.What was annoying was that he could not protest, not because he was afraid of Warrick, but because his stepbrother was right. The higher-ups were even surprised that Warrick could find fault in their work.All this time, they thought Ernest's eldest son became a salesman because of his stupidity. His not-so-good college grades reinforced that.They wondered why Warrick had been hiding his abilities all this time. However, no one dared to ask because the atmosphere was tense."I'll offer you a solution," Warrick said, drawing the attention of everyone reading the mistakes explanation in their report.Zayden narrowed his eyes.

The next day, the servants told Warrick and Aelish that breakfast was ready. After what happened last night, Renata did not want to have breakfast with Warrick, but Ernest forced her to."Honey, eat this," Warrick placed a sandwich on Aelish's plate. He acted as if there was no one but his wife at the table, which irritated Lucy."Aren't you two going to apologize?" asked Lucy, glaring at Aelish. She was annoyed at having to share the main mansion with another woman. "There's still plenty of room here. As a good daughter-in-law, you should respect Renata!"Aelish frowned. "You also took Warrick's mother's room when there was plenty of room. Why can't I do the same?" she retorted sarcastically."The difference is that his mother's room is already empty, and the room you're occupying still has an owner!""Sir Ernest has already allowed us to stay in that room. I don't need to waste my time with you, who is not the absolute authority in this mansion."Being pointed out about her position
