System Within: Million Dollars From Today CHAPTER 43
“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

Mia hadn’t been the same ever since she heard from Bertha that Freddy was masturbating while watching her through the window. Since when was he doing it? Just thinking about it shook her to the core.Not only did she avoid meeting Freddy from there afterward, she stopped talking with everybody in the house.In fact, she was spending very little time in the house these days.Russell, on the other hand, had given a complaint to the police about his mother’s mobile being stolen. However, they didn’t even care enough to look for the thief.Though they told him they’d find the thief eventually, days turned into weeks.Today, Mia was going to the housewarming party set by Nora and Venkat not too far from her house.It was a duplex house, though one not as big as Mia’s current house.Venkat treated Mia well, knowing that she was rich, and he also used to have a secret crush on her back in school. While they were talking, Nora joined their conversation and asked her, “Gabe lives next to your

People’s eyes were glued to the dark olive sports car with state-of-the-art mechanical technology and craftsmanship of unprecedented prestige and quality. This V-10 beast with its streamlined lines looked like it could cut through the air and tame the road, making everyone want to not just see it but touch it and ride it down the smoothest lane in the world. And Gabe of all people stepped out of such a dreamy vehicle whose engine sounds created sensations in the bodies of men and women alike. However, Gabe was dressed in a simple T-shirt and a three-fourth. He did not look like he owned a high-end sports car. How could this plain-looking young man own such a sculptured and sensual car? Not possible. Definitely not possible was what some thought, while some others wondered if it was really his car or not. Those who didn’t know him however didn’t have such exaggerated reactions. As people began to murmur behind Venkat’s back, saying that the car would be worth almost half as much as

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

Bennie created a blue chain with her ‘vivre’ and threw it at Mia.Mia moved around to dodge it, but the chain traveled like a snake, bit on her shoulder, and dug its fangs into her body.Mia felt her energy being sucked away.“Stop struggling,” Bennie smirked. “We’ve been fighting before we learned how to walk properly. Did you think you could beat us because you were chosen by the luna system? From what I can see, you can’t even use it well. So, it’s only right that we take it from you.”As Mia’s energy was getting sucked away, yellow petal flowers began to form in front of her body.The flower slowly turned into a yellow rose.“Is that the luna system?” Bennie’s eyes lit up. “It does match the description I know of.” She pulled the chain and snatched the yellow flower, but Mia also grabbed the chain and didn’t let go. “Just give up already.” Bennie pulled the chain with all her strength.Mia roared, and the yellow rose burst into petals and duplicated themselves into thousands and t

“Cloud Step.”Zephyr’s body seemingly turned into fog and disappeared into thin air, startling both Gabe and Mia.Mia couldn’t even tell which direction he went, but Gabe rushed over to her and blocked a powerful attack of Zephyr.“Bane Jolt.” Zephyr cried out, releasing a poisonous purple energy through his fist.Gabe was getting pushed back.“Let me help you!” Mia stepped past Gabe and thrust a kick in Zephyr’s ribs.Zephyr’s angry gaze shifted to her. He pointed his left forefinger at her. “Bone Bullet.”A sharp bullet made out bone energy pierced through her abdomen.It was so painful she couldn’t even cry. She staggered back in shock.Before Zephyr could shoot another condensed energy bullet, Gabe caught that forefinger and snapped it.Frowning, Zephyr pulled his hand away, but to his shock, Gabe released lightning and roasted that finger at the same time.As a result, the finger got burned to crisp and separated from Zephyr’s body.Zephyr’s eyes widened as he wasn’t expecting th

Gabe held Mia in his arms and dashed away with all the power his legs could muster.“If only I could use that teleporting ability…” he was frustrated with the fact that his current level wasn’t enough to pull off such an ability even once.Nine members, like a pack of wolves chasing after two stray wolves, were after Gabe and Mia with the intention of killing them and getting their hands on the precious systems at any cost.However, the only problem they had was that Gabe was traveling on rooftops, and any major confrontation between both parties could destroy the buildings and disturb the citizens, even causing casualties in the process.Gabriel Agnar would severely punish them if innocent people were to get hurt in the process of acquiring systems, so the head of the Jaguar squad, Zephyr, cast a heavenly spell.It was almost like a magic spell, which condensed all the vapors around them and created a massive cloud at a ground level, which spread out for miles upon miles in every dir

“Whoever manages to defeat that ‘worthless’ brat will get to keep the omega system.”The moment Gabriel Agnar uttered those last few words, all the nine standing members of the Jaguar squad rushed toward Gabe without a shred of hesitation.They were all elite warriors his grandfather had commanded, all intent on claiming the power that lay still dormant within Gabe."Stand down, brat," the third ranker Bennie called out, her voice layered with authority. "You cannot hope to win against us. Surrender, and you may yet find mercy."“You monsters who are ganging up on me, do you even know what mercy means?” Gabe retorted and countered Fang with a punch.Surprisingly, Gabe’s punch seemed simple but the weight it had was tremendous. Fang was pushed back.But at the same time Stark kicked Gabe’s face.Once again, Stark expected Gabe to be sent flying, but Gabe took the attack without even moving an inch.And it was Stark who frowned in response.Zephyr raised his hand, stopping others from a

“It’s time to return,” Gabriel Agnar said, and these few words changed the body language of all the squad members.In that moment, they let their guard dawn, a small figure dashed in through their ranks and attacked their patriarch Gabriel.Gabriel saw through the first feint and responded accordingly, but the second attack also turned out to be a feint just to distract him so that they could pluck the severed hand out of Gabriel’s hand.And they managed to grab the hand, but no amount of pulling was enough to get the severed hand out of the old man’s grip.Everyone was startled after seeing the young kid who gave off an ethereal energy, which they could sense.This young kid was none other than Ulf.“What do you think you’re doing, kid?” Gabriel asked him.“Ha-ha, good afternoon,” Ulf replied awkwardly, “or is it evening now?” He grew triple in size and clenched his fists. “Omega Arts Secret Move…” He threw in a straight punch at Gabriel’s chest. “Final Fist!”Gabriel took the attack
