System Within: Million Dollars From Today CHAPTER 92
Roxy gave her phone number to Gabe before leaving with a necklace that was much simpler than what Shane had offered.Gabe waited at the counter, sitting in the manager’s seat, waiting for the boss. The manager personally brought drinks and sandwiches. Gabe happily had a meal and patted the manager’s shoulder.The manager smiled very much because he expected a handsome commission from this purchase.A few minutes later.“Your boss is taking so long,” Gabe checked the time. “I have to go home, you know. My aunt will be waiting for me.”Just then, a golden blonde entered the store. Wearing a sparkling dress, she looked like an ethereal beauty.Gabe’s eyes widened. “N-Natasha Pennell?”“Gabriel, so it was you, indeed,” Natasha smirked. “What are you doing here, pranking about buying my store?”“Ma’am,” the manager quickly intervened, “he wasn’t pranking. He had over a hundred million in his bank account.”“What?” Natasha was a little startled for a second, but she didn’t look like she bel

Gabe came home, having parked his car in the alley as usual.Mia was with his mother. From the happiness on Nicole’s face, Gabe wondered if Mia had talked to her about the marriage. Did Mia also tell Nicole that it was just a fake marriage?“Gabe, come and sit,” Nicole brought him and made him sit next to Mia. “You two look so good together. I’m so happy now. I won’t mind even if I die tonight.”“Mom, don’t talk like that,” Gabe pinched her. “You’re going to live at least fifty more years.”“Fifty?! You’re being too greedy, Gabe,” Nicole pinched his nose. “Nobody lives 100 years these days.”“I’m not being greedy. You have a long life ahead of you,” Gabe confidently said. “And you’re going to marry someone and have kids.”Mia’s jaw dropped, and Nicole’s jaw dropped even lower.“H-He’s just joking, Mia. Don’t mind his eyes,” Nicole hurriedly said, looking embarrassed. “He doesn’t know what he’s talking about.”“Mia!” Gabe looked at her. “Doesn’t my aunt look young? Won’t there be a man

Irene gave golden bracelets to both the bride and the groom. Mia hugged and thanked Irene, but Gabe asked her, “This looks like real gold. Did you marry a millionaire or something? Otherwise, you’re not the type to give even a penny to others.”“If you don’t want it, then give it back,” Irene tried to take his bracelet back.“No, I want it,” Gabe didn’t let her take it back. He knew the value of money, so he happily took this gift. It might not be a big deal to him right now, but it might come to use later on. Who knows?“By the way, Irene, do you have kids?” Gabe asked.“Why?” Irene icily asked.“Nothing. You gave us gifts, so I want to give some gifts to your kids as well.”“They already have too many dolls to play with, so no thanks,” Irene said and then took Mia to the side. “I know I shouldn’t be saying this after marriage, but are you sure of this? You’re rich, and he’s poor. You’re beautiful, and he’s got cross-eyes. It’s a fake marriage, but still what will others think?”“Let

Mia’s car stopped outside her house.“I’ll see you later,” Nicole told Mia before exiting the car and going to her home.Gabe was sitting next to Mia in the car.A minute passed.“Why aren’t you stepping out?” Gabe asked. “Are you feeling tense?”“Yeah. Kind of,” her hand slightly shivered. “I wonder how my aunt would react.”“It’s okay.” Gabe was about to put his hand on her hand, but stopped midway. She noticed that but didn’t say anything. “I’ll speak for you.”“Don’t do that. It’ll only make them even angrier,” Mia said.“Then, you want me to be silent?”“As much as possible. I’ll deal with them when I’m around, but when I’m out, you can deal with them however you want,” Mia said, sounding almost certain. “Just as long as you don’t physically beat them.”“What if they attack me first?”“Run away from the house and wait for me. You can do that, right?” She peered at him through her glasses, awaiting his response.“What if they come to my house and misbehave with my aunt and attack

Mia and Gabe were entering the house, but Mia stopped him and told him to put his right foot first. He asked her why, and she told him that she read in some book that it would bring good luck.Gabe wanted just that. Loads of good luck. Otherwise, how would he be able to make Mia look at no man other than him and him only?Holding his hand, Mia entered the house, not at all realizing that Gabe’s heart was running fast because no woman had ever held his hand like this, not even Kiera who had dated him in the past.Carrie and her son were sitting right on the sofa. She was watching her son play a mobile game and beat his friends and strangers online. And she was proud of him for winning most of the time. “You’ve really got the skill to play these games, Draco, but you played enough for today. Give me the mobile now,” she snatched the mobile from him before he could say anything.“Mom, that’s my friend’s mobile. Be careful with it,” Draco said while standing on his toes.“Why did your fri

After three minutes, Carrie brought food items and arranged everything on the table before standing on the side.“Who’s going to serve?” Mia asked. “Your grandfather?”Carrie frowned and began to put one food item after another. There were five different items.“Every day, you get to eat different varieties,” Mia said, “but who’s money is it?”Carrie didn’t answer.“It’s my parents’ money,” Mia added. “If we eat like this, more than what we need every day, then even a million dollar mountain will reduce to nothing in a few years. That’s why, I want either you or your husband to do a job and support this family. Whoever does the job outside doesn’t have to work here, but whoever doesn’t do a job outside will have to work within the house, whether it’s cooking dishes or cleaning the toilets. Tell this to others.”Carrie’s eyes widened. “You mean you want to tell my dad to work also?”“He’s only in his fifties, isn’t he?” Mia asked. “And he wants to retire already? He hasn’t been doing a

The next morning.Bertha woke up at around 6 o’clock, which was a bit later than the usual time she got up because she had kept scrolling the website, looking to buy jewelry last night, and hadn’t bought anything in the end.To her surprise, Carrie was still sleeping next to her.“This girl, it’s already six, and she’s snoring like a pig,” Bertha snapped and elbowed her waist. “Wake up, you fool! Who’s going to cook breakfast for Draco if you’re dreaming with your mouth open!”“AHH! Mom!” Carrie angrily got up and bit on her mother’s ear, making Bertha cry out loud. Luckily, Carrie soon let go of her mother’s ear and then jumped off the bed. “You never woke Mia up this roughly. You always wake her up gently,but you treat me like I’m made out of wood!” she growled and then left the room in quick but heavy steps.“How can you and Mia be the same?” Bertha muttered under her breath. “You’re my flesh and blood, so I care more for you, idiot. Otherwise, I would have long called the police a

Mia woke up at around seven o’clock. Her eyes felt puffy, and she couldn’t see her surroundings just yet. She began to stretch her body and yawn, which would help realign the muscles and the fluid in her back.However, her eyesight soon turned normal, and she found herself being stared at by Gabe who was sitting in the sofa, with one leg over the other, smiling at him very subtly with the lips, but there was a glow in his eyes. Heck, it was so romantic she ended up pursing her lips and blowing air into her mouth to stop herself from smiling and blushing.“Good morning,” Gabe said.“Good morning,” she put her glasses on and looked at Gabe again. He looked even more striking and handsome even though he was wearing simple clothes. He looked like a million dollars now. Surely, Gabe didn’t grow in handsomeness overnight, but why did he appear more attractive now? What changed in her that made him more appealing? Was it because she found him uttering her name in his sleep that made her deve

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
CHAPTER 501
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
