System Within: Million Dollars From Today CHAPTER 256
Gabe and Mia returned home at night. Mia was so tired she slept along the way. After reaching the home and stopping the car making as less noise as possible, Gabe kept staring at her. [This is a great chance. Pick her up and take her into her room.] Systa advised. Gabe could hear the voices of William and Bertha in the hall, so Systa’s advice wouldn’t work, he thought. [If you aren’t going to do that, then at least kiss her.] Systa said. [She wouldn’t know it anyway.] Gabe would be lying if he said he wasn’t tempted to kiss her pretty lips. “Do you take me for a fool? If I kiss her, her system would know it.” [Haha. So what?] Systa chortled happily because Gabe finally talked with her. [Luna system wouldn’t easily object to the alpha system. If you kiss her now, you might even get some stat boost like it happened in the theater.] Gabe’s heart started beating faster. He brought his face closer, but in the end, he couldn’t do it. “I don’t want to spoil my first kiss with her.” [Hm

Mia was entering the house, and she heard Draco’s cries. She quickly rushed in, only to be shocked to see Bertha using a stick to beat Draco’s butt. Draco was crying and jumping in pain.“Aunt, what are you doing!” Mia shouted and ran over. “How can you beat a child like that?” She tried to take the stick away from Bertha.“You don’t know what he did. He bought some kind of gaming set that’s worth a thousand dollars, and he told us his friend bought it for him,” Bertha growled. “I called his friend’s home, and their parents told me that they didn’t pay for Draco’s gaming set. So, I bet his ass again, and then he spit out the truth.”“He stole money from the neighbor’s house,” William added.Mia was startled. “Which neighbor?”“Who else? Gabe,” William snorted.Mia was somewhat relieved to hear that, as it would have been more troublesome if it was the other neighbors, who probably wouldn’t keep their mouths shut. Because Bertha was not letting her take the stick, she stood between Ber

Alexander came out of the mansion to throw the garbage bags onto the side so that the garbage collectors would take them away in the morning without bothering anybody that lived inside the mansion.He took out a cigar and flicked his finger at its end, causing it to light up. He took a few whiffs and then felt better.And then he looked at the cigar with disgust. “I wanted to quit this for my daughter, but it’s not easy. I ended up smoking one every other day. How nice it would have been if there was something like a self-control system? Too bad, such a thing doesn’t exist. Mm?” Just then a car that seemed to be stopping by didn’t stop and kept going. “Was it just my imagination, or did they change their mind? Why? Whatever the reason maybe, they saved their own lives.”Alexander dropped the cigar and crushed it barefoot before entering through the gate.Meanwhile, the car that just went past Alexander was the one Gabe was in.“Why the hell did you suddenly tell me to keep going?” Gab

[Let’s go over there and eat to our heart’s content!] Systa showed excitement like that of a child.“I think it’s better to sit at a table, but whatever…” he reached the place where a young female worker was packaging the pizzas at a blinding pace. When Gabe got closer, his expression changed because he was mesmerized by this tall, red-haired beauty who had an ethereal aura around him. She was so heart-stirringly beautiful, even Kiera would look like a donkey before her. How could a woman be so perfectly beautiful and symmetrical? He felt some very pleasant aura coming from her, and before he knew it, he ended up staring at her a bit too long.The long-red-haired stunner turned toward him and said, “What are you looking at? If you’re here to eat, then go and sit at a table.”“A-Ah, my bad, I apologize for the inconvenience,” Gabe turned away from her and then realized that Systa was no longer sitting on his shoulder.“Take this little golem with you as well,” the young woman with red

The orange blossoms filled the air with unsurpassed fragrance, so much so that even Gabe who was currently unconscious was feeling soothed.[Why are you smiling when we barely escaped death?] Systa smacked his head with her little fist. [Wake the hell up, Gabe!]“Argh!” Gabe sat up once and clutched his forehead. “What the hell? Systa? Did you just hit me?”[No. I kissed you with my fist and brought you out of a coma. Be grateful!] Systa blurted, folding her arms across her chest.“Where are we?” Gabe looked around and realized that he was in a garden full of orange trees. Tiny streams of water channeled throughout the garden and watered the plants even during the night. “Why the hell did you bring us here?” Gabe suddenly remembered something. “Wait…” he touched his forehead again. “Weren’t we at the pizza shop? I attacked that red-haired woman, and then… something happened.”[She folded your ass. That’s what happened.] Systa snorted.“Tsk,” Gabe got up to his feet. “I wasn’t on guard

“Who’s there?” Gabe uttered in a moderate voice. “I can feel your presence, so come out.” “I was wondering who intruded my home in the middle of the night,” a soft voice came out as a man walked out of the shadows, wearing a night suit. “It turns out to be a guy with systemic power. If you’ve come here to steal oranges… then pluck as many as you can and leave quietly.” He stopped at the right spot where his features above his chest were still hidden because of the shadows. Gabe and Systa looked surprised because this man was able to see through them so easily. “Does he have a system?” Gabe asked her. [I don’t think so.] Her eyes were wide open. [This guy… I don’t feel any energy from him at all. He’s right in front of us, but it feels as if he’s everywhere, like the sky above us.” “English, please.” [He’s not someone we can deal with right now. Since he doesn’t seem to want to fight, let’s run.] Systa said. Gabe frowned. “Isn’t running something you’d never do?” Systa also frown

Gabe’s phone rang in the middle of the night, waking him up at once. It turned out that the sim company was calling, so he cut the call.A little bit of sweat formed on his face, as bad memories of the past kept coming back.Gabe had learned to work hard from a very young age. He worked so hard, he would get a stomach ache often. The stomachache was not due to indigestion but hunger. It was an all familiar feeling for those who lived a poor life.There were countless days where Gabe ate only once a day. Because of that, he’d feel weak and weary during his job more often than not. Though he avoided heavy weightlifting jobs as much as he could, he couldn’t completely avoid them. So during the times he lifted weights for his job, he experienced such severe hunger he was afraid of passing out during work at some point.But he would always tell himself: A few more hauls to make.It wasn’t just for himself but also for his aunt.There were times when he would receive messages at midnight to

The next morning.Gabe went to the grocery store, and Leona was there, working diligently. He gave her an orange.“I don’t like citrus fruits,” she blurted, looking at him coldly. “They burn my heart.”Gabe raised his brows. “Are you roleplaying a vampire now?”She was startled. “H-How did you know? Now that I know vampires are real, I’ve been trying to imagine what kind of lives they lead. What things do they eat? Can they eat vegetables like us? Do they poop everyday? You know, there are a lot of questions that I’ve been noting down in a book.”“What for? You think you’ll meet a vampire soon?” Gabe asked.Leona smiled rather confidently. “Since I’m with you, I have a feeling that I’ll meet a vampire sooner or later.”Gabe put the orange in her hand. Her eyes widened because the orange was as big as her hand. “What’s this? You’re giving me a shitty hybrid orange? These things look big, but they taste like water gone bad.”“No, they’re organic oranges that grew in a specific environme

Gabe and Mia were falling down from miles high.Gabe’s legs were still wrapped around Mia’s waist, so their fall was rather awkward.“If we crash like this, both will get injured,” she quickly said.“I-I will do something,” Gabe resisted the urge to grab her cheeks and kiss her in midair, but he believed that this opportunity might not come again.So, he quickly went in for a kiss.Mia put her hand on his mouth. “This isn’t the time!”Just then, her eyes widened as she saw people jumping from the ship that was above them.“Shit. I think we’ve been spotted,” Mia nervously said. “We have to escape.”“Leave it to me,” Gabe smirked and then tightly hugged her.“What are you-” Before she could finish her sentence, Gabe turned into a streak of lightning and traveled through the sky in a zig-zag manner.Within seconds, he crossed tens of miles and landed on a tree top.All the twelve warriors were startled by the speed at which Gabe had traveled.Nevertheless, they used their flying boots to

At a sea port.Gabe and Mia were hiding behind tall rocks at the shore and were observing the people shoot laser bullets at the sea beasts and then bring their bodies to the shore.They harvested crystals out of their bodies, which leaked out a strange but familiar energy.“I have never seen such creepy sea monsters, and what are those weapons?” Mia was a little nervous. “There are laser weapons in this world? I thought it was just fiction.”“They don’t just rely on weapons,” Gabe pointed. “Look over there.”A muscular old man with spiky hair punched a giant serpent monster and put a massive hole in its head.Mia’s eyes swelled out of the sockets. “H-He killed that monster from just the wind pressure emitted from his fist? He’s the real monster here!”“Yeah. He’s pretty strong,” Gabe opined. “I’m not sure if we can beat him even if we fight him together.”“But if we want to enter Syslon, we have to board their ship,” Mia said. “That’s what Ulmer said.”“I know, but can we sneak into h

Gabriel Agnar stopped by a motel.Systa looked a bit dull.“Bring her tea,” Gabriel looked at Alleria who had a bandage wrapped around her head.Alleria frowned but didn’t complain.“To think this little girl is really the Alpha System,” Alleria was still finding it hard to believe. “But, Lord, just so you know, she didn’t beat me. She created a clone of hers and tricked me into fighting the clone.”“You still let her take the woman away, didn’t you?” Gabriel calmly said. “It was your loss. Doesn’t matter how it comes.”“Ugh…” Alleria couldn’t talk after that.She went to the motel owner and asked, “Give us some tea.”“We don’t sell tea here.”Alleria hit the thick wooden bench with her palm and left an imprint there.“I-I’ll get the tea ready in ten minutes,” the motel owner nervously said.“I’ll give you five minutes.”“I-It’s impossible to get it done in five minutes, ma’am.”“Go,” she coldly growled, and he ran to the neighboring convenience store to buy tea bags and milk.Meanwhi

Gabriel grew much angrier after Gabe and Mia disappeared right before his eyes.He put more power into his fist and threw it at Ulmer who was under such pressure he was not able to move.A streak of red lightning flew into the scene and wrapped itself around Gabriel’s fist and stopped his fist in its tracks.“Mm?” Gabriel and Ulmer both looked to their side, where a red-haired woman was standing atop a nearly uprooted tree.She was giving off a ridiculous amount of energy.She looked like she was the embodiment of a million thunderbolts. She looked almost ethereal.“A wolfe clan’s girl?” Gabriel uttered.“The wolfe clan?” Ulmer seemed surprised. This was also his first time directly coming into contact with a person from the wolfe clan since he became the Urban God. “The strongest clan in the world… You came at the right time. Let’s together beat this old man up.”“Hmph,” the red-haired lady descended from the tree almost in a floating manner. “I didn’t come here to take sides. Both o
CHAPTER 501
Both Mia and Gabe were being pressured to hug the ground. Some kind of invisible force as heavy as many mountains was crushing them, making it feel as if their bones would turn to powder under pressure.Gabe gnashed his teeth and tried his best to resist. He was only able to barely move one of his fingers, though.This can’t be real.He thought he had become strong, strong enough to at least stand his ground at those who are at the top of the world.Even though Systa wasn’t with him right now, and even though he wasn’t at his full strength, how could he be toyed like this?How could he not be able to resist the head of the Agnar clan even a little?How can there be such a huge power difference?As he gave it his all to just try and get back, Willow didn’t wait for him.She went for the kill.“I’ll break your wife’s skull right before your eyes, boy!” She axed her foot down at Mia’s head.Mia wanted to move away, but she couldn’t, and she looked more frustrated than afraid that she was

Gabe’s attack kept all the four squad leaders at bay as the electricity that washed through their bodies did not leave to the ground.Instead, it stayed in their bodies, trying to cook them alive.They had to resist the lightning energy with their ethereal energies.At the same time, Mia was able to push Willow back, though her leg suffered a deep cut in the process.Half of her bone was also cut, but she was healing at a fast pace.Regardless, Mia wasn’t worried about these opponents right now because the lightning energy of Gabe was also filling her body.However, it did not hurt her.But it made her feel stronger, and she began to feel Gabe’s presence all the more. Not just his presence, but all the things he had done in the past were popping in her mind.So many new memories poured into her mind.From the memories of his childhood to recent incidents, all the strong memories of his life played in her mind like a fast-moving dream.Some of these memories really squeezed her soul.S

“This is the end, youngling,” Willow turned into ten thousand different clones which looked like a giant swarm of illusion moving toward Gabe. “Phantom Dance!”All the figures of Willow attacked him in different styles all at once.It looked like Gabe’s entire body was burst to pieces.“It’s over already?” Fang snickered. “Heh, who gets to keep the omega system now?”“It’s not over,” Stark frowned. “Didn’t you see that flash of light?”“What flash?” Fang looked at Stark. “Did you see something that I didn’t?”Zephyr arrived where they were. “He used his lightning ability to move fast… so fast that my eyes also barely followed it.”“How the hell did he move that fast all of a sudden?” Fang frowned. “Where is he now?”Willow put her sword on her shoulder and looked down at the park miles below, a corner of her lips slightly curling up as she saw Gabe standing behind Mia now.“He released a burst of lightning at the last second. I thought he was defending himself, but he used it to pull

Gabe could feel what happened to Mia, that she was sent flying down to the earth.He wanted to go and help her, but Stark and Fang kept him occupied.The narrow and precise attacks of Stark constantly targeting Gabe’s head were messing with his sense of distance.Fang also stayed closed and made sure to mess with Gabe’s timing by throwing attacks that unpredictably supported Stark.Clearly, they were seasoned fighters who didn’t put a single foot wrong.Even Gabe, who wasn’t much of an experienced fighter, could tell that these two had fought each other and together many times before.Otherwise, such perfect coordination might not be possible.“If I can’t overpower them with technique, I have to do it through other means…” Gabe leaked electricity into the cloud, which reflected it back at Stark and Fang, forcing them to fend off from these sudden attacks.“He’s able to use not just the ground but also the clouds to his advantage,” Fang harrumphed. “How annoying. Even though I’m covered

More than two decades ago.“I understand about the alpha system, but why does the Patriarch want to find the luna system, too?” Zephyr was asking his squad commander at the time who was his own aunt.“He wanted to give it to his wife or his daughter, maybe?” Zephyr’s aunt said while smoking from a pipe.“Why?”“Haha, why you ask? Because it’s known to be the best support system,” she laughed. “I don’t know much, either, but the luna system is said to be driven by the owner’s feelings more than any other system. So, it is one of those systems where anger, happiness, and even sadness can be turned into strength. They say it can cast perfect illusions that make dreams resemble reality.”“What? That’s pretty fucked up.”“Yeah, it is a fitting system for any queen, as it has the capability to keep the alpha in check when everyone else fails,” she opined. “That’s why it’s a coveted system, but unfortunately, our clan never got hold of it. If you ever come across an opponent who wields that
