System Within: Million Dollars From Today CHAPTER 54
“What happened?” Roxy found herself on the ground, looking worse than someone that slipped on a banana peel. “Why am I on the ground? How did I…”It took her a few seconds to realize what could have happened, and the sharp pain in her cheek only confirmed her thoughts that she really got slapped by Gabe.It was no ordinary slap. It was a slap that she couldn’t see coming. It was a slap that erased all her ego and almost made her shed tears like a child. It gave her something that was beyond humiliation. It was an eye-opening slap that tore through the facade of her sexiness and revealed her nakedness to everyone.Sevyn helped Roxy get back to her feet.With her cheek covered by her hand, Roxy looked at Gabe like a victim would.“Gabe!” Venkat quickly rushed over in a bit of a rage. “How could you slap your friend like that?” He used to have a crush on Roxy as well, so he felt really inclined to support her during this time. “How could you hit a woman?”“She asked for it,” Gabe shrugge

“Give me the key, Mia,” Cynthia asked for the car key.“You want to go for a ride by yourself?” Mia asked.“No. I just want to see the key,” she replied, and so Mia gave her the key. Cynthia got over the car after Mia and slid the key along the length of the car to ruin its appearance. She made sure nobody noticed it and then tossed the key to Mia. “That’s the best key I’ve ever seen.”Mia just smiled and then they entered the house together, only to see many people gathered around a poker game. To her surprise, both Bart and Gabe were also playing the game. Cynthia went and stood behind Bart, who she had a bit of a feeling for, but at the same time, she also had an eye on Russell.Mia didn’t know who she should stand behind. Bart was family, but Gabe was a good friend. Whom should she support?Since Cynthia was behind Bart, and there was no one supporting Gabe, she went and stood behind him.Gabe’s heart was filled with positivity when Mia stood behind him, her hands touching the cha

Gabe parked his Lamborghini in an alley not far from his house. When he was coming out, he couldn’t help but notice the scratch line and was shocked for a second.“What the hell?” He put his hands on top of his head. He was sure it wasn’t there before. “Did I go past something sharp? Give me a break, man. Why is my luck so bad? Now, I have to repair this. I hope I can remove the scratch and restore the shine it had.”He quickly entered the car, but then happened to look at the car key as he was about to put it in the keyhole, and noticed a bit of the paint stuck on the key.His eyes widened.And when he remembered whom he had given the car keys to, a visible shock took over his eyes.“Was it Cynthia? Or was it Mia?“It can’t be Mia, right?”He hoped that it wasn’t Mia because so many women had broken his heart, and he didn’t want Mia to join that female group led by Kiera.Either way, he wanted to know who scratched his car.He knew where Cynthia lived, so he straight away went to her

Gabe came home. His aunt was sleeping, so he didn’t bother her and just rested in the hall.He could see the cracks in the ceiling. In the past, he didn’t even think of closing the cracks as it would cost a lot of money, but now, he got another reason to quickly renovate the whole house.Seconds passed and added into minutes.He didn’t sleep but was just using his phone. He had made an online account, and he received a few friend requests from the people of the same neighborhood.One of those friend requests was from Zuri. She just sent a request a minute ago.“This woman… She’s unbelievably shameless.”Zuri was his senior in school, and she was called the Dimple Queen because she melted boys hearts with her dimpled smile. However, her character would put whores to shame, because she used to bring multiple boys to her house every night. Both of her parents were drug addicts, so they didn’t care for her, and she earned gifts and money from getting fucked by the boys of her school and o

“Mia!” Gabe loudly asked as he rushed over to her. “Are you okay?”His voice startled her and woke her up fast. She was initially scared, but after seeing Gabe, her heart stopped skipping. “Gabe, what are you doing here?”He felt that she picked the words right out of his mouth. “I came here to breathe some fresh air, and I saw you. Why are you here at this hour? It’s not safe for you to be alone here at night.”“I know,” she tapped the bench, as if telling him to sit.Gabe didn’t say another word and sat next to her. There was a foot distance between them, though. He briefly glanced at her, and she didn’t look alright. (Was she crying again?) He remembered the last time when she was crying in her bedroom, while looking at the photo frame of her parents. “Did you come here to feel the breeze, too?” he asked.“Kind of,” she replied and looked at the stars just for the sake of it. She then looked at him and said, “Can I ask you something?”“Yeah. Sure. Anything.” He put the mobile aside

Gabe was repeatedly punching the opponent even after he fell to the floor.“Stop!” Rica stepped in, grabbed Gabe by wrist and forcibly pulled his arm behind his back and then dragged him to the side. “What the hell are you doing? This time, the task was only to defeat and not kill the opponent. What’s gotten into you?”Gabe was gasping. He was bleeding from the mouth as it was an intense battle he just had. “That bastard scolded my mom. He deserves more beating.”“You can’t act like this. If people see you losing cool just because someone scolded your mom, then your opponents will use that to target you,” Rica said in a low voice. “You won 48 times with this. If you win two more times… you’ll cross the 1,000,000 rank and receive your golden badge. You don’t want to get the penalty by breaking the rules.”“I’ll keep that in mind.”Rica then raised Gabe’s arm into the air. “The winner is Gangsta!”The crowd had been erupting all this while, most of them rooting for Gabe.“He’s done it a

Gabe bought a new mobile and gave it to his aunt. This one was worth less than a thousand dollars, which was ten times less expensive than the last one he had bought for her.“What about the previous phone then?” Nicole couldn’t help but ask him. After hearing from the kids that the mobile was worth close to 10,000 dollars, how could she just give up on that? “I think either that child Draco or one of his friends might have taken it.”Gabe had already told her of that possibility, but she didn’t agree, not wanting him to quarrel with William or Bertha for the mobile.“Forget about that mobile, Mom,” Gabe said. “I’m earning well now, so fighting with Mia’s family for the sake of one mobile isn’t worth it.”“Mm, I understand, but if Draco really was the one who stole it, then I think we must at least tell his parents about it,” Nicole opined. “They will correct their kid.”“I’m not too sure about it, though.” Gabe didn’t think that Carrie or Freddy would punish their own for the sake of

At Tuna Waves.Gabe and Nicole were enjoying the delicious salmon and tuna meat. The tuna pieces, especially, were so juicy and succulent Nicole wanted to keep eating them.Normally, she didn’t have a great appetite after falling sick. However, right now, it felt like her appetite from her younger days was returning. After all, she was eating more than Gabe now.And Gabe was extremely happy to see his aunt eat like a child. Nicole wasn’t even having a discussion. She was just fully focused on eating and nothing else.Once she finished, she burped and then awkwardly looked around, wondering if others noticed. “Every table is full. And we are only on one floor. This hotel really is popular.”“Yes, Mom. The crab’s legs in other restaurants in this region cost anywhere between 300 to 1000 dollars, but in this hotel, they are just worth 30 dollars,” Gabe said. “And the quality is actually better than what you can get in other restaurants, or so I’ve heard.”“Yeah, every dish was delicious,

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
