System Within: Million Dollars From Today CHAPTER 41
Gabe gave ten grand to his aunt and told her he began working at a company called UTS and showed her the company ID card, which UTS had given him so he could show the world where he was working. The address and everything were real because there was a shell company also called UTS, which was a conglomerate. No one would ever think such a big company would just be a shell of another company with huge underground operations.Nicole hugged Gabe and cried for a long time. She had prayed countless times while lying in bed that Gabe should get a good job and settle in life. Finally, her wishes were being heard, she thought.However, she gave the money back to him and said, “You should pay your debts first. Besides, if I really need money, then I’ll ask you.”“But, Aunt…” Gabe looked hurt because she hadn't taken the money.“Alright,” she took a hundred dollar note. “This is enough for me to buy groceries for us for this week.”“At least take a thousand,” Gabe insisted, but she shook her hea

Gabe bought a cot and placed it in the hall. However, after lying down on it, he felt uncomfortable. Sleeping on the floor seemed more comfortable to him.So, he folded the bed and put it on the side.“Why did you buy a bed if you're not going to use it?” Nicole asked. She looked different today because she had taken a bath, oiled and combed her own hair. She looked beautiful.“I will use it, but right now, I feel more comfortable sleeping on the ground. I don’t even need a pillow to sleep,” he proudly said, but that only made his aunt feel sad.Seeing her make a sad face, Gabe said, “Aunt, you look gorgeous today. Can I kiss you?”“G-Gorgeous? Me?” Nicole was surprised. She didn’t believe it. How could someone in her late fifties be beautiful, she thought, but then Gabe planted a long kiss on her cheek. It almost brought a tear to her eyes.“Gabe, if someone like me appears gorgeous to you, that means… you should really get a wife,” she teased him.“A-Aunt!” Gabe’s face blushed like

“Keke, let’s taste her lips one by one,” Gabe’s friends snickered sadistically, “or should we taste her together?” They didn’t care that others were watching. They had become too blinded by their lust that they were abusing their own classmates.The guy holding Mia’s both arms squeezed the arms hard, trying to intimidate and oppress her. The box and bottle in her hands fell. The box opened, and blueberries fell out. He unintentionally crushed on the berries while trying to kiss her. “Just once. Let me taste those lovely lips just once. Seeing how you’re shying away, I bet you’ve never kissed anyone before. Let me show you how it’s done. It will become useful to you in the future.”“No! Stop!” Mia kept moving her head back and away while struggling to free herself. She was never a strongly-built woman, so she was really afraid right now. There were people watching, but none of them stepped forward. The harsh reality broke her heart some more.“Hey,” Gabe’s cold voice echoed in the ears

After Mia left, Gabe sat in the house with a dull expression.A part of him wanted to confess his feelings for her, but another part of him told him that if she had the least bit of romantic feelings toward him, she would have at least hugged him after he fought his four friends.Gabe could see care in her eyes, but he didn’t see any sort of romantic feelings. Why would she feel that way about someone who was cross-eyed? This was the reality he had to live with all his life.Nothing changed in this aspect even though he had acquired a system.He had already asked Systa if it was possible to cure his cross-eyes, but the system told him it wasn’t possible for any system to cure something a person was born with. Because he was 32 years old, it wouldn’t be possible to make his eyes right with surgery, either. Meaning, he would need to live with his cross-eyes for the rest of his life.He stayed down until Nicole came home.And he acted normal.“Gabe, I brought you fresh coconut water,” sh

Nicole heard from Gabe that blueberries were Mia’s favorite, so Nicole made a dessert with blueberries and took it to her home in the evening.William, as usually, sat on the porch and was playing snake and ladder with Draco.“Remember the promise. If you win, I’ll buy you the gaming CD that you want,” William said, “but if I win, you’re going to keep playing with me until dinner.”“Grandpa!” Draco complained because he had been playing the game since afternoon and didn’t win a single time. By now, he realized that his grandfather was too good at rolling the dice and was toying with him throughout.Just then, Nicole entered through the gate. Neither Draco nor William recognized her because they had never seen her before.“Who are you, madam?” William paused the game and came over to meet her because she looked good to the eyes, even though her dress was shabby. Draco used this opportunity to run into the house.“I live in the neighboring house, sir,” Nicole put on a smile and politel

Gabe came home at eight o’clock in the night and showed his aunt all the things he bought, from mobile to kitchen utensils, buckets, soap, and whatnot.“You don’t have to buy all these things, Gabe. Focus on saving the money,” she advised.“I will. I will,” he assured, giggling happily. Buying all these things for his aunt who could now use them made him really happy.“By the way…” she took out a small paper slip and gave it to him. On it was a phone number.“This…” he looked at her in shock. “Don’t tell me…”“Yes,” Nicole smiled and nodded. “If you’re uncomfortable with talking to her face-to-face, then you can start conversing with her on mobile. Once you both get closer, I’m sure you’ll feel more comfortable talking in front of her.”“Aunt… you’re my savior!” Gabe hugged and kissed her on both the cheeks. “Even if I give you the world, it would be too little!”“Haha,” Nicole chuckled quite a bit. “You should use your praising skills on Mia. It will make things easier for you.”“Wil

Carrie’s son, Draco, brought his friends home. All of them were rich kids, and they didn’t quite like the fact that the home that Draco previously lived in was much bigger than the current one.Wanting to brag about himself more, Draco said, “We own multiple houses on this street. We’re just giving them for rent now.”“Then let’s explore those buildings now,” his friends wanted him to prove his words. Now, they were all seven-year-olds, and yet none of them removed their footwear before entering the home or climbing onto the couch.Draco’s heart skipped a beat. “Y-Yeah.” He remembered Gabe and thought it would be better to enter his house. He brought his friends with him and stopped right before Gabe’s house.“What?” his friends were shocked. “You’re saying you own this cheap house?”“Well, we bought everything at once, so we’re going to destroy this house soon,” Draco bragged. “We’ll build a big garage here.”“Let’s go inside and take a look,” his friends rushed in without even askin

Gabe came home.What he didn’t know was that Venkat followed him in his car from a distance. “He still lives in that old, shitty house, and he says he earns at least 20,000 dollars per month? He’s definitely lying.”“But this company card seems real,” Nora was looking at the visiting card that Gabe had given them. It had his name, company, address and everything in it except his phone number because he didn’t buy a mobile by the time this card was made.“It’s not that difficult to make cards like these,” Venkat blurted. He had short, curly hair which he hated. He also envied Gabe for his cool, soft, and straight hair, but now, he could see that Gabe’s hair was thinning down, and it made him happy inside because his hair was still dense. However, when Gabe said that he earned at least 240,000 dollars per year, his heart shook. “If I pay ten dollars in a store, they’ll print cards like these.”“You think so?” Nora sort of believed Venkat’s words. After all, if Gabe really was earning as

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
CHAPTER 497
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
