"Look at that stupid, wry smile on his face," Taylor thought, smiling with her left lip higher than her right. She was so happy that she could get Shawn into her fishing net. "Now all I have to do is pull out the fish I caught and throw it on the ground. It will die of heat and lack of water. That's what happens when you get into the wrong neighborhood. Just like you, Shawn Hubert. You shouldn't be in an elite neighborhood like ours."Shawn nodded slightly, then he said, "Alright, I'll bet a million dollars. I have the money."Rachel was stunned by Shawn's answer. He immediately turned his head and glared at the man. "Are you out of your mind? I'm giving you one million dollars for long-term use, not for you to spend like this. Remember, it's all about the amount of money you have now. To Taylor, a million dollars is just pocket change, but to you, it's a huge sum of money. You're going to lose big if you lose, Shawn!"Seeing Rachel's response, Carol said, "Rachel, stay out of men's b
"What the heck is going on over there?" people started commenting in confusion.Most of them were clueless about the chess game, so they also had no idea how precarious Taylor's piece position was. However, they could see that Taylor didn't dare make a move, and her chess clock was ticking away, waiting for her move.Carol asked, "Is Taylor having trouble against that guy?"Nica, one of the women, replied, "No way! Taylor had a rate of 1800 and almost always won in online platform matches. He must have been pretending to be cornered to make the game more exciting. Soon, she will defeat that obscure man and drive him out of our circle."Hugo watched the pawn's position carefully while holding his chin. She also noticed that Taylor had started sweating on her face and neck.Carol said, "Taylor wants to entertain us, huh? Although I don't know about chess games, Taylor's game would be entertaining to pretend to be weak to defeat--""No!" cut in Hugo. "Taylor's position is in danger. Her
"Damn, who would have thought he was a former TCC member," Taylor complained to Hugo as they walked toward the second game venue.Hugo patted Taylor on the shoulder for support. "Calm down. He was going to lose this game. She's from the lowest social class. She wouldn't have access to horses. How could someone like that hire a horse to ride, right? Your victory in this match is assured."Taylor nodded. He knew that Hugo would be on his side. They both did not want Shawn to be accepted in their circle. Especially after what she had done up until now, just remembering it made Taylor upset.On the other hand, Shawn walked after the rich men to the next venue. Rachel walked beside Shawn with an unhappy face. Her lips continued to pout.She said to Shawn, "The first match took so much time. Now you're making it an outdoor match. These people don't know the time!"Shawn did not respond to anything. According to research, a woman says three times as many words as a man. It was only natural t
"Come on, keep running like this, Tophy!" said Shawn as he patted the horse on the back. After about five minutes, Shawn finally got the horse under control and started to walk towards the forest.A rifle with a scope would be rugged while riding a horse, as the recoil is significant for someone like Shawn. This weapon has bullets that can be used for long distances, almost 300 meters, with accuracy at 200 meters.After walking into the forest, Shawn heard gunshots starting to ring out. The voice sounded like the one on TV, but it was louder and rougher, which surprised Shawn a little.Shawn turned his head towards the source of the voice. "Have they started hunting animals?"Shawn looked around. He hadn't seen any he was at all.He then continued deeper into the forest. At one point, he saw a white rabbit jumping around. Shawn stopped his horse and immediately aimed using the rifle he was carrying.He took a breath and pressed the hammer of the rifle. It turned out that the bullet sl
"It should be a pressure bet, but I feel like I can do well."Shawn smiled as Taylor and the others moved away to look for their quarry. The feeling Shawn felt was one of excitement that he couldn't explain, but he was confident that the system provided a challenge that he could overcome, even though Shawn didn't have good hunting skills yet.Shawn recalled that when he met Gorz, he had not been able to master martial arts techniques until he extracted the Special Martial Arts Level 1 book. When Shawn won a chess match, Shawn got the opportunity to level up a skill.Realizing that, Shawn immediately called out to the system, "System, do I have the skill of hunting on a horse?"[You have a hunting skill while riding a horse that is still very low level.]Shawn smiled, it turned out that he had this kind of skill. "Level it up with the bonus I got in the chess match!"[Your horseback hunting level increases to level 2. Your body will feel a significant difference.]Shawn tried to close
"Is it over?" Shawn glanced at the loud gunshots from the gathering point of the spectators. The referee had fired the shot that signaled the end of the hunting competition. Now it was just a matter of weighing their game. However, Shawn already knew the result, as a blue screen appeared in front of him.[Ding!][You have won the bet in the hunting competition.][The mission has been completed. You get 15 million dollars in your account and you get a stat bonus.][All physical ability stats are increased by 10%.]Shawn's eyes opened wide and his mouth broke into a grinning smile. The amount of money he earned was the most fantastic thing about today. Shawn had never dreamed of earning that much money before.However, there was something odd about the incident earlier, when the message came in while Shawn was making Taylor pee her pants. There was something new in the message system.Shawn who was under a tree and alone muttered about this, "It turns out that I was being watched by a s
"I'm going to buy a car. What do you think, Rachel?" asked Shawn as he and Rachel were driving home with Rachel at the wheel.Rachel turned to Shawn with furrowed brows. "You want to buy a car? You don't have to. Just use my car. Not this Lambo, but one of the cars at home. It's not as nice as this, but you can use it however you want."Shawn answered with certainty, "Oh, no need, Rachel. I'll just buy a new car."Rachel's ears perked up a little when she heard Shawn's words. Was he starting to feel cocky for winning the bet? Rachel felt that Shawn should not get carried away with a little money.Rachel said, "What kind of car are you going to buy? How much is it? Was it tens of thousands of dollars? Or hundreds of thousands of dollars? As someone working with you in the future, I advise you to manage your money well, Shawn."To Rachel, Shawn was innocent and poor. If he suddenly got a million dollars in big money, of course, all he would do is spend it, just like the thoughts of the
"A Ferrari car? Are you sure you want to buy that car? It's our latest release. It costs 5 million dollars," the salesman said doubtfully.Rachel looked sharply at Shawn. She couldn't understand what Shawn had chosen. Rachel knew that Shawn was experiencing the euphoria of beating Taylor in a bet, but buying such an expensive car was too much.He pulled Shawn's arm and brought his face close to Shawn's ear. "Can you think a little, Shawn? You're going to be my husband soon. Wouldn't it be better if you learned how to manage your money? You can't buy a car that expensive, you don't have enough money! Are you going to embarrass me before we even get married? Please don't provoke me at a time like this!"Batou watched them. When he focused his gaze on Rachel, he became mesmerized by Rachel's beauty and the slender woman's body. He even smiled a little when he looked at such a beautiful woman. However, he wondered why the woman was getting close to Shawn.Batou asked, "Miss, why are you w
