System Within: Million Dollars From Today CHAPTER 269
The restaurant that Rica brought Gabe to was unlike anything he had ever seen before. It was an underground restaurant, but there were glass walls surrounding their table. On the other side of the walls, lions, tigers, and other animals lived. This was like they were surrounded by a zoo, with only a glass wall separating them.“What is this place?” Gabe asked as he entered this space through an elevator that brought him down from the ceiling and then left. Even Systa didn’t know about the existence of such a place. “There’s animals. There’s fish. It’s like a zoo.”“It’s an exclusive restaurant that can only be used by a certain number of families that are part of its customers,” she said. “Even billionaires won’t be able to get in here unless they are recognized by the owner of this restaurant.”“Who’s the owner?”“My uncle,” she said, surprising Gabe.“I guessed you were rich, but not to this extent,” Gabe said, sitting down on the premium wooden chair which oozed nothing but quality

“Dad…” Rica walked over to Alexander and gave him a gentle hug with one hand and then held his hand and brought him to his seat.Gabe got out of his seat, but Alexander waved his hand, as if telling him to sit. Gabe quickly sat down, but he was feeling anxious, even though he had completely hidden the ring using his invisibility power.“Dad, this is the guy I was talking about,” Rica introduced him. “Gabe. His full name is Gabriel Brando.”“Gabriel. That’s a nice name,” Alexander looked at Gabe without blinking for a few seconds. “You look nice, too… But what’s not nice is that you got my daughter’s attention, and she’s mentioned about you five times in the last couple of months. She’s very particular about men, so I wondered what’s so special about you. I surely wasn’t expecting you to be cross-eyed, though.”Gabe frowned a little.“Dad!” Rica hissed at him in a soft voice and hit his foot.“If you’re really interested in him, Rica, then it’s better that I be frank instead of sugar-c

“Pass? For what?” Gabe didn’t get what he was talking about. “Open the wrapper, and you’ll know it,” Rica said. “Mm?” Gabe opened the candy wrap and found a gold-coated chocolate inside. “Is this a gold ball?” He picked it up. “No. It doesn’t weigh heavy.” “It’s edible,” Alexander said. “You can eat it.” Gabe hesitantly put it in his mouth, and the chocolate melted very quickly, and the taste was very good. “This flavor… was the first milk used in making this chocolate.” “Hoh… to think you were able to deduce that in a few seconds…” Alexander was impressed. “I guess you’re talented in not just fighting but in more departments.” “Mm?” As Gabe swallowed the chocolate juices down his throat, he felt a slight surge of power that worked his muscles up a bit and made him sweat. He could tell that it wasn’t just some ordinary chocolate, but he didn’t say anything about it. After all, he felt a little better now. “How are you feeling?” Rica asked. “Did you sense any changes?” Gabe slow

Both Systa and Ulf were walking next to Gabe while eating icecreams. They looked like little children. While Systa was slowly licking the ice cream, Ulf was chomping on it.“Do you think he really didn’t notice that I have a system?” Gabe asked.[Yeah. I’m a hundred percent sure!] Systa told him. [I and Ulf were hibernating throughout, so there’s no way he would have sensed anything abnormal.]“But he was looking at me a bit differently,” Gabe wondered.{Maybe, it’s because you’re cross-eyed that you felt his gaze being abnormal?} Ulf opined.Gabe angrily grinned. “You’re purposely teasing me, aren’t you? I was very much shaking inside throughout the time I was talking with the father and the daughter. The last thing I wanted was to fight them there.”Because Systa had told him that both Rica and her dad were strong, he obviously didn’t want to fight them in a restaurant owned by Rica’s uncle. Who knew just how much of a reinforcement they would have got had he started fighting them?

Gabe and Zack were in a rented car, with Gabe in the driving seat, giving a rather cold glance at Zack through the rear-view mirror.“I’m telling you the truth,” Zack spoke through the pain. “I didn’t tell them anything. Why don’t you believe me? Urgh, and take me to the hospital. I can’t bear this burning pain in my thighs!”Zack actually wanted to kill the masked guard, but Gabe didn’t let him, not wanting to unnecessarily make Alexander angry.“I won’t believe anything you say,” Gabe coldly breathed out words. “The only reason you probably didn’t leak them information was because you were afraid that they might kill you afterward, right?”Zack’s heart skipped for a second, but his expression didn’t change.“I’ll take the silence as a yes,” Gabe added. “This makes me wonder what you would do if a situation arises when you have to rescue your wife at the cost of your own life. I’m now sure you’ll run away.”“Don’t say nonsense just because I’m listening,” Zack snarled. “I love Kiera.

Gabe returned home and was still feeling anxious as he wondered if the smart system had told Alexander about him or not.To add to his stress, he only saw two oranges left in the kitchen. “W-Where did the rest of the oranges go?”Nicole wasn’t home, so he didn’t have anybody to answer that question.He ate one orange and left the second one on Nicole’s bed before walking out of the house. “If there were more oranges, I would have taken some to the orphanage, but… I don’t think that man will just give me more oranges if I go to that Sterling villa, right?”[Let’s not test that man’s generosity.] Systa advised. [But I think that you should keep the seeds and plant them in the park. I’m sure when they grow and bear fruit, the children in the neighborhood would love to eat them.]Gabe liked the idea. “You should have told me this sooner. Now, we only have one orange left.”[No, Gabe. You weren’t paying attention. Your aunt has already put some of those seeds on the rooftop so they’d dry u

Gabe came to the park to spend the night there. It was peaceful until he felt a shadow prowling in the darkness, slowly closing in on him.“Come on out,” Gabe said.“Your senses are pretty sharp as well,” Nick stepped out into the moonlight. His eyes glowed red.Gabe, however, didn’t look surprised. He was still lying on the grass, as if he wasn’t intimidated by this person’s arrival.“You don’t look surprised. Were you perhaps expecting me?” Nick asked.“I don’t have the mood to talk with you, so state your reason for coming here,” Gabe was straightforward.Nick smiled and sat down on a bench that was about ten feet away from Gabe. He put one leg on top of another as if to show his confidence. “This is a pretty decent park. You wouldn’t want this to be seized by court, do you?”Gabe’s expression didn’t change.“The distance between your home and Tuna Waves isn’t small,” Nick added. “A lot of things can happen during such a long trip.”Gabe’s jaw hardened. “Keep at it, and you’ll die

Many questions flooded through Gabe’s mind as he was told to kill the child who barely looked two to three years old. When did they kidnap him? Was it before Gabe entered this building or after? If it was before, then where were they keeping him in the building? How many more children were there in this building? All these thoughts only added to Gabe’s rising heartbeat and tension. “Do it, Gabriel,” the grandmaster uttered with a hint of pressure in his voice. “Didn’t you eat chicken and beef before? You’ve already taken many lives indirectly, so this is nothing special.” “If it’s nothing special, then why do we have to make this sacrifice?” Gabe asked him back. “This is what our god wants,” the grandmaster said, with his hands placed on his crotch. “We eat chicken and beef every week, but we still consider meat as special, don’t we? This is also the same. Sacrifices like these happen all the time, but they’re still considered special. Don’t think too much about it and put the kni

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

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
