System Within: Million Dollars From Today CHAPTER 448
Seeing the skeletal hand breaking through the grave gave Mia pure horror. Her heart was already quaking, but then the grave broke open, and out of it rose skeletons who still had flesh covering their bodies here and there.Mia screamed even more and couldn’t even look at them. How could their parents who had died many years ago still have flesh on their bodies? Shouldn’t it have decomposed long ago? Just what was going on? Is this some kind of a nightmare she put herself in? If so, she badly wished to wake up from it.“Grr…” Both of her parents growled in a low voice.Gabe stepped to his right and stood in between Mia and her parents.“D-Don’t destroy them, Gabe,” Mia quickly said. “Beat them without hurting them.”“I don’t have such an ability, Mia,” Gabe replied. “But I think you’re capable of doing that. Make them hallucinate or something with your skill.”“I can’t do that,” Mia didn’t even open her eyes because she didn’t want to look at her parents like this.Just then, more grav

Gabe did not have any problem dealing with the undeads, except for two of them: Mia’s parents.They were especially aggressive toward him. And they even began to talk after their tongues regrew.“How dare a nobody like you marry our daughter!” Lovey shouted. “You are not even worthy of cleaning her boots! So, how can you think you can share the bed with her?”“M-Mother-in-law, Mia likes me, and..” Gabe blocked her clawing attack with his forearm. She was surprisingly very vigorous and robust. Her claws tore through his skin and flesh and made him bleed.Gabe frowned and backed away.“You didn’t even come to us and ask for our permission,” Dovey attacked him this time by punching the air. The shockwave traveled through the air and struck Gabe’s chest, pushing him back a few steps. A normal human would have had a hole in his heart after receiving that attack, but Gabe was only pushed back a couple of steps.[What the hell are you doing, Gabe!] Systa yelled at him. [They are being contro

Mia’s scream distracted Gabe just for a second. The clown-masked man ran away faster than any four-legged animal could.However, a clown-masked woman was sent flying in their direction.Seeing that, Gabe smiled in relief.The clown-masked man rushed to his partner who seemed to have been struck a severe blow to her chest. She was coughing blood and was barely able to keep her consciousness. “Hold on for a little bit,” he put her on her shoulders and began to dash away.Mia appeared in his path. He was about to swing his scythe, but Gabe closed in from behind like a predator, sending chills down the clown-masked man’s spine. Before he could change the direction of his attack back to Gabe, the opponent grabbed his head from behind and violently pressed him down to the ground.Gabe released a jolt of electricity, shocking both the clown-masked people. The woman lost consciousness, but her partner did not.Gabe ignored him for the time being and looked at Mia. “Why did you scream? I thoug

Gabe and Mia were forced to come to an agreement with the two people from the Beast Brotherhood.If they were to send the people back to their graves, then Gabe and Mia were willing to let them go, assuming they wouldn’t attempt another such attack.It took them a few hours to fix everything, and then Gabe and Mia called the owner of the cemetery and informed him about the incident, telling him that some robbers tried to rob from the graves, and also that the robbers managed to escape.After the call ended, Mia told him, “You do realize that he’s going to suspect us first, right?”“Well, your parents were also buried here, so I think he’ll give us the benefit of doubt,” Gabe stated. “At least I hope so.”Mia kept staring at her parent’s graves, which still did look like they were robbed. The images of her parents rising from their graves in skeletal forms was still playing in Mia’s mind, and she couldn’t forget about it. “I didn’t want to see them again like this, but I don’t get why

Mia and Gabe waited until the cemetery’s owner came. He had many bodyguards and gunmen with him. He didn’t even talk to Gabe but left a couple of his men to stop them from leaving. And then he went into the cemetery first and was rather stunned and angered by what he saw.The bodyguards who were standing in front of Gabe and Mia were staring angrily at them. Mia was upset by it.“Why are you looking at us like we’re criminals?” she asked them, but their expressions didn’t change. They kept staring intensely as if Gabe and Mia were their sworn enemies or something.“Don’t bother about them,” Gabe turned Mia to the other side.One of the bodyguards then smirked and commented, “She’s got a nice little ass, doesn’t she?”Mia definitely heard that and frowned. “Do you want me to ignore that as well?”“No,” Gabe turned back to face them.“What’s up, kid?” one of the bodyguards snickered. Because Gabe had his haircut, he looked five to ten years younger, so these bodyguards mistook him for s

Mia and Gabe were in the car, and Mia was driving it now after asking Gabe to switch places.“Please be careful when you drive,” Gabe said.Mia raised an eyebrow. “Are you saying that out of worry over me, or the car?”“Obviously, both,” he replied.She could only sigh. “Did you tell your mom the same when she drove this car?”“Uh, I think I did?”“You don’t sound confident.”Gabe didn’t say anything.“I guess you still are a mother’s boy first.”Back to the present, Gabe was smiling at her.“What is it?” she asked because he didn’t give her the reason why he’s smiling all of a sudden.“I never imagined I’d give a blank check to someone,” Gabe said. “I feel kind of cool right now more than when I did it.”“Mm…” Mia could definitely see so much improvement in Gabe as well as herself. She was a soft woman, but after receiving the Luna system and training with it, she realized that her confidence was steadily increasing, and it was reflecting on her behavior, too. So, she told herself th

The car stopped outside Mia’s house.Gabe was smiling ever so brightly. She could see a dozen of his teeth. She brought him to her house because she could make him look after the house construction happening there. So, why was he smiling like a blooming flower now? “Why do you look so happy? Did you think of a joke or something?”“No, you brought us here because no one would disturb us here, right?” Gabe said, making her heart skip twice. “Your aunt, uncle, and the other annoying parties won’t be here. We can both spend as much time together as we want. We can bathe for a few hours straight, and no one would disturb us.”Bathing a few hours straight? Mia imagined herself sitting naked in Gabe’s lap, and it made her flush like a ripe tomato. “Y-You’re imagining too much.” She didn’t think Gabe could think so erotically, and she didn’t know what to say. “Husband and wife don’t have to bathe together, do they?”“What are you saying, Mia?” Gabe spoke like a pundit. “It’s very common for w

Mia was waiting in the hall while Gabe was bathing. She could hear him sing because of her supernatural senses, and it made her smile and shake her head.When was the last time she sang while bathing? She didn’t even remember ever doing it before. That was the kind of a boring life she had lived.“I should change myself so that I will enjoy my life better… together with Gabe…” she thought.Just then, someone entered the hall, pleasantly surprising Mia because it was a school friend and the top ranker of the class Sevyn.She looked a bit dull. She came straight to Mia and sat next to her.“Is everything alright?” Mia slowly asked. “You look a bit off.”Sevyn looked around. “There’s no one here, right?”“Gabe is there, but he’s upstairs, bathing in my room,” Mia said.“Oh…” Sevyn took a breath and looked at Mia. “Do you have any bad habits?”“Bad habits?” Mia looked a bit perplexed. “Why are you asking me that?”“In our class, you were the only one with a clean image,” Sevyn said. “The

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
CHAPTER 493
“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
