THE GREATEST REVENGER SYSTEM The First Arc Quest: Completed!
The warehouse was an inferno, the air thick with smoke and heat as the fire consumed everything in its path. Thenma's body trembled, his blood pooling on the floor beneath him. His vision blurred as his consciousness wavered, the knife embedded in his shoulder burning like molten steel. [WARNING: Life-threatening injury detected. Immediate action required.] [Purchase defensive weapon (20 points)?] [Activate self-healing mode (10 points)?] But Thenma's fading consciousness made it impossible to focus. His trembling gaze looking over the options as the panel glitched, the words distorting and disappearing before he could make a choice. No, not now... I can't lose here... Suddenly, a loud crack echoed through the warehouse. Julian staggered, clutching his head as a wooden stick struck him from behind. His eyes widened in pain and confusion, his grip on the knife loosening. "What the—" Julian hissed, stumbling backward. Thenma blinked through the haze of pain, his gaze lock
THE GREATEST REVENGER SYSTEM A Glimpse of Victory
Thenma’s eyes fluttered open, his head heavy as if weighed down by a thousand thoughts. Bright, sterile lights illuminated the room, and the distant hum of machinery filled the silence. The faint beeping of a heart monitor confirmed he was in a hospital.He tried to sit up, but his body protested. Pain radiated from his shoulder and torso, forcing him to settle back against the pillow. His mind raced as he struggled to piece together the events that led him here.Then it hit him—the warehouse, the fire, Julian.The memory of their brutal fight resurfaced, and a wave of satisfaction washed over him. He recalled Julian’s screams, the look of desperation on his face as Thenma delivered the final blow. For the first time in a long while, Thenma felt victorious.One of them. One of the bastards who ruined Adeline’s life had fallen.A lump formed in his throat. The victory wasn’t just for him—it was for her. For Adeline, his sister, who had endured more than anyone should. He clenched his f
THE GREATEST REVENGER SYSTEM Adeline Is Awake
The hallway stretched before Thenma, sterile and dimly lit, each step echoing softly against the polished floor. His shoulder throbbed with every movement, the pain radiating through his body like a relentless reminder of the fight he had barely survived. His legs felt heavy, his breaths labored, but none of it mattered. Not now. Not when Adeline was finally awake.His fingers gripped the wall for support as he paused to steady himself, his mind racing with a mix of anticipation and relief. He pushed forward again, determined. The thought of seeing her after all these months fueled him, dulled the pain, and gave him the strength to continue.Finally, he reached the door. The plaque outside read ICU Room 14. Thenma hesitated for a brief moment, his heart pounding against his ribcage. He took a deep breath, clenched his fists to steel himself, and pushed the door open.The sight before him stopped him cold.Katarina was sitting beside Adeline’s bed, her figure silhouetted against the di
THE GREATEST REVENGER SYSTEM No Face, No Shame
Thenma was taken aback by the sudden arrival of Penelope and Kato. They stood at the doorway, looking at him and Adeline with smug smiles. Their presence exuded an oppressive threat-if not for him, then it was undoubtedly magnified for Adeline.Holding a beautiful bouquet of flowers, Penelope stepped forward. "Sorry it took me so long to visit you, Adeline. I didn't think you'd go to such extremes. But because of that, I see now-you've learned our lesson well."Adeline froze, her face pale, her eyes wide with fear. The usually brave Adeline now looked like a drenched, helpless chick. Thenma grabbed Penelope and pulled her aside, his gaze burning with anger."How dare you... Have you no shame?" His voice was laced with menace and hatred. He couldn't believe Penelope and Kato had the audacity to show their faces in front of Adeline-the very reason she was in this state.But Penelope, unbothered, brushed his hand off."I'm just checking in, damn it. Why are you being such a pain? Kato br
THE GREATEST REVENGER SYSTEM Become Friends and Cut a Friend
"What do you mean?" Thenma asked, and Katarina answered easily."I’m going to help you with your mission… accompany you? Assist you? I see it as paying you back."Thenma stayed silent for a moment, making Katarina think he was considering it, but then he replied, "No."Katarina frowned in confusion. "No…?""You don’t need to do anything to help me. You know that," Thenma said, glancing at Katarina’s arm, which was wrapped in thick bandages. "This journey is extremely dangerous. I won’t let anyone end up like Adeline just because they tried to help me.""But you’ve already helped me. You freed me from sleepless nights filled with anxiety. I can’t just let you go empty-handed."Thenma looked at Katarina, his cold, faint smile a silent plea for her to understand. "You’ve already helped me," he said. "Getting your father to cooperate with me is more than enough. Or… was that a lie?"Katarina quickly shook her head. "No. My father swore to me he’d help you."Thenma chuckled. He’d only been
THE GREATEST REVENGER SYSTEM Stronger Than Before
Using his recovery time to train his body, Thenma made people worry about him. He had just been discharged from the hospital, and a fortnight wasn’t enough time to fully recover. But Thenma ignored everyone who told him to rest.He didn’t deny that he still felt pain, especially around the wound from the stabbing. It hurt when he pushed his arm too hard, but he couldn’t afford to relax. His victory over Julian had boosted his confidence for the next step—his revenge plan.Thenma pushed himself to improve his physical abilities, training every day—alone or with the best mentors he could find. He wouldn’t hesitate if it meant advancing his plan. Like a perfect birthday gift, he wanted his revenge to be prepared and delivered in the best way possible.Ding![Congratulations! You just reached Level 42!]Thenma paused when he saw the notification from Reve— the system. In just one week, he had completed numerous side quests to boost his physical sk
THE GREATEST REVENGER SYSTEM Gingerbread Recipe
Thenma stood in the middle of the chaos, wearing a plain black apron over his casual clothes, his hands dusted with flour. He leaned against the counter, staring at the latest batch of gingerbread cookies cooling on a rack. They looked perfect—golden brown with a crisp edge and soft center—but when he bit into one, his expression soured.“Still not right,” he muttered, tossing the half-eaten cookie into the trash.The taste wasn’t bad—far from it. But it wasn’t her gingerbread. No matter how many times he adjusted the spices or changed the baking time, the result felt hollow. He rested his head on his flour-dusted hands, letting out a groan.The scent of cinnamon and nutmeg brought Thenma back to a simpler time—a cold winter night in their cramped, run-down apartment. Their mother, Mary, stood by the tiny oven, her apron frayed at the edges. She was humming softly, her hair falling in loose strands from the bun she always wore.“Mom, can we help?” young Adeline asked, her voice full o
THE GREATEST REVENGER SYSTEM Welcome Home, Adeline!
The kitchen was a mess. Flour dusted every surface, bowls and spoons piled high in the sink, and the warm scent of cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger lingered heavily in the air. But amidst the chaos, there was triumph.For the first time since he’d started this maddening quest, the cookies tasted like Mary’s. Thanks to Katarina who added a secret ingredient and finally Thenma discovered the 'magic' his mom used to add into her gingerbread. Also thanks that he let Katarina stuck around. Thenma would finally be relief and took Adeline home with his wish on while Katarina was left in the apartment after she said she would take care of the room before Adeline arrived.The following morning, Thenma stood outside the hospital, waiting for Adeline. His breath clouded the crisp winter air, but his spirits were high. He clutched a thermos of coffee in one hand, already picturing Adeline’s face when she tasted the gingerbread cookies. It had been too long since he’d seen her smile.When she finally

James Found Out
It hadn’t taken long for Katarina to become the center of Rover Verelli’s attention. With her sultry voice, stunning beauty, and her practiced persona as a charming drinking companion-for-hire, she quickly found her way into Rover’s inner circle—just as Thenma had instructed. She hadn’t told her father what she was really doing at Verona Lounge, and she had no intention of doing so. Thenma had agreed to keep it between them.Before returning home each night, Katarina always made sure to change out of her seductive attire and slip into casual clothing—something she would’ve worn on any ordinary day. With a calm expression masking her double life, she stepped through the door of her home that evening.But she didn’t expect what was waiting for her.“Thenma… what are you doing—?”Her question was abruptly cut short.Her eyes widened in horror as she saw Thenma reel backward from a powerful punch to the face. Standing over him was her father—James—his face a mask of fury.“How dare you us
Wolf's Den
The air outside Verona Lounge was thick with humidity, carrying the scent of city smog and the lingering aroma of cheap perfume from the women who worked its sidewalks. The neon sign flickered in crimson hues above the entrance, casting an eerie glow onto the pavement below. It wasn’t just another nightclub. It was a place of power. A place where shadows lurked in the corners, where men with deep pockets and darker secrets indulged in pleasures that couldn’t be spoken of in daylight. And tonight, Katarina Whittaker walked into it willingly. Getting in hadn’t been as simple as she expected. The underground broker she was forced to meet had slid her a note with a single, cutting remark: “Verona Lounge doesn’t take random city whores. If you’re not from Anony, you’re out.” That in itself was enough to raise suspicion. Katarina had worked through Blostom’s nightlife before. Clubs like Verona Lounge were supposed to be filled with girls from all backgrounds—runaways, desperate wome
Talking Plans
The ride to Thenma’s apartment was silent, save for the occasional hum of the engine. Laura wasn’t sure why he had brought her here instead of discussing the plan elsewhere, but she didn’t question it. Not yet.The apartment building was tall, sleek, and modern—one of those places where the city’s wealthier residents lived, far removed from the chaos below. The 11th floor gave a perfect view of Blostom’s restless streets, yet inside, it was eerily quiet.Thenma unlocked the door with an effortless motion, barely knocking before pushing it open. The moment it swung wide, a bright voice greeted him."Thenma!"A girl rushed forward, her excitement clear in her tone. Katarina Whittaker—young, bright-eyed, carrying the kind of energy that could light up a room. Her long, honey-blonde hair bounced slightly as she reached for him, but then she froze.Her smile faltered.Her warm brown eyes flicked from Thenma to Laura.Someone she didn't recognize.And even though Katarina didn’t say a word,
Something Off About Everything
The city of Blostom was awake in its usual rhythm—cars streaming through the roads, people rushing in and out of the Prosecutor Building Center, and the occasional blare of sirens in the distance.At 10 a.m., a sleek, midnight-black sports car sat idly in the parking lot, the tinted windows shielding its occupants from prying eyes.Inside, Thenma was relaxed—too relaxed. One hand rested on the wheel while the other lifted a can of soft drink to his lips. Across from him, Laura Finch sat with her arms crossed, brows slightly furrowed.She hesitated for a moment, then exhaled."You’re saying Joey gave you the hint… through a sandwich?"Thenma smirked, glancing at her sideways. “Mr. Douglas.”Laura rolled her eyes. "Joey."Thenma let out a chuckle, taking another sip of his drink. "Yeah, a sandwich. Pretty creative, huh? The guy used mustard to write the damn coordinates. Real old-school spy shit."Laura’s gaze sharpened, her skepticism evident. "And you’re sure you got it?"Thenma’s smi

Your well-being is important.---Laura stiffened at the sound of Kato’s voice behind her. She turned swiftly, masking her initial surprise. The way he stood there, casual yet calculated, made her uneasy—like he had been there long enough to hear every word exchanged between her and Thenma.She swallowed down her nerves, reverting to the version of herself that Kato knew: cold, distant, untouchable.“Just talking to a friend,” she said, her tone indifferent. “Inside was too loud.”Kato’s smile was polite, yet it held the weight of something unspoken. He didn’t trust her. That much
One of The Girls
The air in the VIP room no. 5 was thick with perfume and the slow, hypnotic beat of the lounge’s private playlist. Dim golden lights flickered, casting seductive shadows as the women moved around Laura, their bodies swaying in a practiced rhythm.On the sleek glass table before her, a bottle of Château Margaux sat half-opened, its dark red liquid reflecting the ambient glow of the room. Crystal glasses clinked as one of the girls poured a drink, offering it to Laura with a teasing smile."You're not drinking," the woman purred, running a manicured finger along the rim of the glass. "Are we not to your taste, Miss Finch?"Laura barely spared her a glance. Seated at the center of the long leather couch, her body language remained unreadable—casual but detached. The women surrounded her, draping themselves across the seating, their movements fluid, seductive. Some continued their sultry dance on the polished pole in the middle of the room, twisting and arching like sirens luring in sailo
The Point Is To Go Back
Thenma stared at the numbers, his breath catching in his throat. A code—coordinates, precise and deliberate. It took him a moment to process that Joey had done this. That Joey, after all his irritation and refusal to cooperate, had finally shown his hand.A quiet part of him had started to believe Joey would never come around. But this—this was proof. A silent acknowledgment. A sign that Joey was choosing to trust him.Disbelief flickered in Thenma’s chest, quickly followed by something deeper—gratitude, relief. But he didn’t let it show. He could still feel the weight of unseen eyes on him, the invisible threads of surveillance tightening around the café.He quickly memorized the sequence, engraving it into his mind before carefully pressing the sandwich slices back together. Then, without hesitation, he took a bite, forcing himself to eat naturally, to move like nothing had changed. He chewed slowly, letting the taste settle, disguising his satisfaction with the meal.And for the fi
Way To The Key
Laura barely had time to stop the car when Thenma threw the door open and rushed out. His movements were sharp, precise—like a man who had just connected an important piece of a puzzle and couldn’t wait to confirm it.She watched as he strode toward the small café across the street, completely absorbed in his mission. His urgency was palpable, like nothing else mattered except reaching Joey.Laura frowned, leaning against the steering wheel. "Are you ever going to tell me why you dragged me all the way here?"Thenma, already halfway across the road, glanced back briefly. "Not now. You can head back first. I’ve got things to do here."Laura scoffed in disbelief. "Are you serious?"Thenma didn’t respond. He simply pushed open the café door, stepping inside without looking back.The warm aroma of coffee greeted him, blending with the low hum of conversation. The moment he entered, he forced himself to slow down, suppressing the restless energy that had driven him here. He had to act natu
The Case Takes Two
The soft hum of the car’s interior light cast a faint glow over Laura Finch’s face as she gripped the steering wheel tightly, her knuckles pale against the leather. She hadn’t started the engine yet, and the silence in the car was suffocating. Next to her, Thenma slouched in the passenger seat, exuding his usual air of defiance.Laura’s sharp, cold gaze bore into him, the irritation on her face unmistakable. “Don’t waste your time staring at me like that, Prosecutor Finch,” Thenma said, his voice low but laced with mockery.Laura scoffed, leaning back in disbelief. “Then stop acting like I’m your damn parent, boy. Do you have any idea how many files I had to skip to drag you out of that police station?”“Sorry, Mom,” Thenma replied dryly, tugging his leather jacket tighter around him as if to shield himself from her frustration. But his mind wasn’t on her scolding—it was still back in Anony, replaying Joey Douglas’ panicked gestures over and over.Laura shook her head, her lips presse
