A Bug in the System
The fourth had red hair with all out red pajamas, he looked like red potatoes, he was cute with a hint of baby fat around his cheeks. His honey kissed eyes looked so gentle that it felt like honey was literally dripping from them.
On the right side were also four ladies. The first was the beautiful but cold kind of lady. Her ice-cold expression looked intimidating, as if she hated the whole world.
The second lady looked even more expressionless, she was a beauty, but her beauty was an extremely pale beauty. She had a white and soft skin that made her look like a robot.
The third lady was more easy going than the rest, she had a very impressive height and looked like she was made for the spotlight.
The other lady was just engrossed in the book in her hand, she hadn't even touched her food yet.
“So these are my siblings, they literally fit the description my mother gave, don't you agree zero”
“ Hello, zero are you there, zero, tell me you are there, answer!!! Say anything zero!!!”
“Son, are you okay, you look tense, don't worry, your siblings don't bite”
“You brats, briefly introduce yourself, don't you see you scaring your brother and where zero, he is supposed to be here to welcome his master”
“Zero, did you just say zero mom, you know zero” Kim was shocked when he had his mom mention zero, that's his system, how did Shantel know him.
“Kim, zero is your personal butler, he is the grandson of butler mike who you saw earlier”
“Hello, everyone, what did I miss” a jovial voice sounded from afar as zero descended the stairs.
“ Are you my master, you are so handsome, l am zero, your butler” zero said with a mischievous wink.
“I am Kim” Kim said as he hugged zero and pinched him” you prick, why didn't you tell me that people could see you, you just scared the shit out of me”
“ Ahh! That hurts, come on, it's more fun to see your bewildered expression, l even took him on camera”.
“Kim, it's nice to see you, you are so handsome, far more handsome than these log of woods, how about I introduce you to my modeling job, you got height, face and aura, the mark of a celebrity, what do you think” Kristen the jovial sister said as she cut in.

“Thanks third sister, you are my idol from now on, l love you” Kim said as he hugged her.
“Alright, have a seat, you must be tired after a long journey, " the second brother said as he separated them.
“Right, take a sit” Shantel quickly said
Kim quickly sat down in the empty chair next to the fifth sister, who at some point had put down her book.
The dinner went peacefully and besides Kristen who chipped in from time to time, no one else talked to Kim.
“Zero, are you sure these people want me here? They are just too formal, aren't they?” Kim said puzzled.
“I don't know, that's left for you to check, why don't you check their favorability values”
“no, l want to respect their choice, prying just like that isn't my style”
“ Kim, we will leave you and your siblings to talk, you guys must have a lot to talk about”
“darling, let's go, let leave the kids to catch up”
“Okay love, guys be on your best behavior, don't scare my baby or else you guys will get it, understand “Shantel said clenching her fragile fist.

“Hmmm, stop flattering me” Jimin said, but the red blush that spread from the tip of his ear to his neck betrayed him.

“Hahahaha, it's time, Fred, let's take a trip to imperial city "the voice of the demon sounded.
The News Kim woke up after a long and reviving sleep. He had taken a very long time, thinking about all the gifts he had received from his new family. He couldn't believe that everything he had wanted had just happened to him all at once. It felt so unreal. His whole world literally turned upside down.A few weeks back, Kim was sleeping in an uncompleted building, precisely on a dirty rough floor. Now, he is sitting pretty in a queen’s size luxurious bed. He glanced around his room, admiring the luxurious and exquisite design of his bedroom.Kim got up from the bed and walked towards the window, He pulled the expensive black and golden curtains and looked outside the window from hisroom. Kim looked at the entirety of the slate mansion from his window. He hadn't seen it well at night, but seeing it now made him wonder about the kind of wealth the slate family has. Kim also noticed there was a garden. It was his favorite place to be. So, he dec
Black Envelop "Son, guess what? The government finally said yes to our big construction contract! Can you believe it? They've turned us down so many times before, but today, we got the good news," Kim's father said with a big smile.Kim couldn't believe his ears. "Wow!" he exclaimed, "That's amazing news!"He felt a bubble of happiness knowing that the slate family is receiving good fortunes.Kim's mother joined in, facing her husband. "Oh my darling, we’ve suffered a lot for this contract. In fact, we lost hope, this is wonderful! I can't believe it's finally happening!" she exclaimed, as her eyes sparkled with joy.This is one of the biggest contracts in the country. People have fought to get this, but the government has refused to award it to anyone. Kim's father beamed with pride, his chest swelling with happiness. "This is definitely a miracle, my dear. Just when we thought it was over. My son, did you see this? Your family is almost at the to
The Invitation Letter"WTF! What is that?" Kim asked, looking surprised as he pointed to the envelope in Zero's hand.Zero didn't reply immediately. Instead, he stared at the envelope and muttered, "The ten families."Curious, Kim stepped closer to Zero and gently turned him around. "Zero, what did you say? Who are the ten families?" he asked, his voice tinged with confusion.Zero hesitated for a moment before responding, "It's just a letter of Visitation."Kim furrowed his brow, trying to make sense of Zero's cryptic answer. "Visitation? What do you mean?" he asked, still puzzled.Zero sighed, reluctant to delve into further explanation. He knew that when he started explaining, it might definitely lead to more questions that he was avoiding. "It's an invitation from a group of influential families in the city. They want to meet with the slate family," he explained vaguely.Kim's curiosity piqued even more. "Why do they want to meet with us?" he inquired
The Preparation Kim glanced at Zero questionably, but Zero just shrugged his shoulders in response. Kim was scared, he didn't know what to expect. Eventually, he followed his father inside the house.Once they were all seated, Kim sat opposite his father, waiting anxiously for him to speak. But before Mr. Jones could say anything, Kim's siblings entered the room, greeting each other and their father warmly."Hey, Dad! Hey, Kim!" Amara exclaimed, giving them both a big hug.Drake grinned and nodded at his father. "Good day, Dad. How are you doing? Kim," he said cheerfully.Casey waved at them with a smile. "Hi, Dad. Hi, Kim," she greeted.Jim clapped his father on the back. "Good afternoon, Dad. Good afternoon, Kim," he said with a grin.Alvin gave them a thumbs-up. "Afternoon, Dad. Afternoon, Kim," he greeted, his voice enthusiastic.Kristen gave her father and Kim a quick hug. "Hey, guys! Afternoon," she said with a smile.Paige flashed them a brigh
The Mysterious Energy"Zero, what's happening?" Kim asked, panic creeping into his voice as he listened to Zero's distress."I... I don't know, Kim. The systems... they're malfunctioning," Zero's voice crackled in Kim's mind, each word a struggle.Kim's heart dashed with fear as he realized the gravity of losing him. Zero, his loyal companion and friend, was in trouble, and there was nothing he could do to help."Zero, please hang in there. We'll figure this out together," Kim said, his voice trembling with worry.But before he could say anything else, Zero's voice faded away, leaving Kim feeling helpless and alone. With a heavy heart, he sank onto the nearest chair, as he thought of what could be happening to Zero and how he could cope without him.*********************************With a heavy heart, Kim managed to get up from the chair and headed outside, hoping to see Zero there. Heartbreakingly, he called out to Zero, "Zero!" Kim called out, his voice
The Unexpected Guest.Unexpectedly, Kim passed out.THE NEXT MORNING……….Kim woke up on the cold tiles with a slight memory of what happened to him last night. His headaches and his body hurts. “Ouch!” he exclaims as he gets up. Kim managed to freshen up. He went downstairs just to learn from his dad that their guests were gone. He took a loud sigh. He didn't want to see anyone, he was not just in the right mood. Something was happening to him, Kim was feeling a bad energy following him but he couldn't place it.“Where's Zero?” he inquired, looking sad. His father. Gave Kim a gentle Pat on his shoulder. “I don't know when Zero will be coming, but I’ll, we are your family, and we’ll be there for you. As your siblings will be going back to their individual homes, you can always visit any of them if you desire.” Mr. Jones said as he led Kim to the dining table where others were seated waiting for him.*****************************Kim greeted each and
The Unwanted GuestAs Kim drove towards the mansion, he found two older people blocking the entrance. Getting angry, without seeing their faces clearly, he shouted at them to move out of the way, he was in a bad mood and didn't have time for quarrels or arguments."Who are you people? What are you doing in the Slate family's place? Did you miss your way? Please move out of my way," Kim yelled, his tone firm and harsh.When they didn't budge, Kim stepped out of his car and was surprised to see that they were his former parents. They had found him with the slate family.“What’s…..” His words caught short of his words, he tried to hide his surprise and nervousness. The elderly couple looked at Kim with pleading eyes, their faces showing both remorse and desperation.Trying to hide his emotions, Kim forced himself and asked, "Who are you? And why are you here at the Slate family's mansion? Did you miss your way?"His former parents exchanged glances and spoke
College His room was turned upside down. It was a total mess. “What the heck happened here?” he shouted. He peeled again but there was no sign of anything. “What is going on here? Mom! Dad!” Kim called out to his parents he couldn't take it anymore.Seven minutes later…..Mr Jones and Shantel were walking towards Henry’s room door questionably, they were surprised to hear Kim screaming their names by the time of the night.“Henry, are you alright? What's…..” Mr Jones opened his mouth as he saw how Henry’s room was. Ancient writings on the wall. Mrs. Shantel walked skeptically across the room, observing the destruction and the writings on the wall. She didn't know what to make out of it. No maids would dare do this. She thought but just to clarify her doubts she called all the housekeepers. Seeing their faces alone would tell that they knew nothing. “Did any of you do this? Or perhaps see anyone come in to do this?” Mr Shantel asked, sounding
A LIFE WELL LIVED In the months that followed the defeat of Miller, Kim's life began to settle into a rhythm of peace and fulfillment. The chaos and destruction had left scars on the city, but with Kim's direction, the people rebuilt their lives, stronger and more united than ever. One bright morning, Kim was called to a special ceremony by the government. It was held in the city's grand hall, a place that had seen both despair and triumph. As Kim entered, he was greeted by a standing ovation. The hall was filled with dignitaries, officials, and grateful citizens who had come to honor him. The mayor stepped forward, holding a gleaming medal. "Mr. Kim," he began, his voice filled with emotion, "your bravery and selflessness have not only saved our city but have also inspired a nation. Today, we honor you with the Medal of Honor, the highest recognition we can bestow." Kim bowed his head as the medal was placed around his neck. He felt a swell of pride, not just for himself but for
AFTERMATH OF THE WAR As Miller knelt down, beaten and broken, he looked up at Kim with desperate eyes. The darkness had been stripped from him, leaving him vulnerable and weak. But his heart was still filled with hatred. He knew his time was running out. But he wanted to buy more time to run. "Kim... please... spare me," he gasped, his voice trembling. "I can change... I can do better..." Kim's heart hurt at the sight of his once-fierce rival now pleading for mercy. Memories of the destruction and chaos Miller had caused flashed through his mind. He thought of the countless lives lost, the families torn apart, and the cities reduced to rubble. He knew that sparing Miller might lead to more suffering and devastation in the future. "I'm sorry, Miller," Kim said softly, his voice was persistent but tinged with sadness. "I can't let you continue to bring harm to the world. Peace and harmony between heaven and earth can only be restored if you are stopped once and for all." Miller's
THE FINAL FIGHT Miller seethed with rage as he watched the news, his name tainted and cursed while Kim was hailed as a hero. The city was rebuilding, and the people had found hope again. Miller couldn't stand it. The very thought of Kim being praised while he was seen as the villain drove him to madness. He decided it was time to end this once and for all. The battle of heaven and hell would be fought through Kim and Miller, and only one would emerge victorious. Miller stormed through the streets, his presence alone was sending waves of fear and chaos. Buildings crumbled in his wake, and the skies darkened as if mirroring his fury. He was ready to confront Kim, crush him, and prove his dominance. Kim, aware of Miller's approach, stood unshaken. He had been preparing for this moment, training tirelessly with Zero. The citizens, now secured in guarded shelters, watched with bated breath, knowing the final battle was imminent. Miller appeared back to the city, his eyes were blazing
MILLER’S COME BACK Kim had finally accessed his full powers. He felt a surge of energy coursing through his body, and he knew he was now strong enough to face Miller. Determined, he set out in search of his nemesis, scouring every possible hiding place he could think of. Despite his extensive efforts, Miller remained elusive.Undeterred, Kim turned his attention to the mess Miller had caused during his rampage. The city lay in ruins, with countless lives affected by the chaos and destruction. Kim knew he had to do something to help.He began working closely with the government, providing health amenities to those injured during Miller’s attacks. Hospitals were overwhelmed, and Kim’s assistance was important in making sure that everyone received the care they needed. He used his powers to heal where he could and organized resources to support the medical teams.“I can’t believe how much you’re doing for us,” a nurse said, with tears in her eyes. “You’re a real hero.”Kim shook his hea
THE ANTICIPATION Miller was in his hideout, screaming in pain and fury. The pain from his recent defeat by Kim tore through him, not just physically but mentally. He felt embarrassed and hurt. His ego was bruised.His roars echoed through the empty chamber, filled with rage and frustration. He knew Kim was training and preparing, but he never thought Kim would actually defeat him. With the amount of power he has? “How did this happen?” Miller shouted into the void. “The ancestor told me Kim wouldn't be any match for my powers, yet he beat me without even getting started. How can that be? Did he deceive me to set me up?”He paced back and forth, his mind a whirlwind of confusion and anger. “What kind of power does Kim possess? Why must he always be more than me in everything? Stronger, richer, more loved, more successful, and now with a higher power? Why must it always be Kim?”His frustration grew, and he screamed at the top of his lungs, cursing the invisible ancestor. “How can I
THE FIRST FIGHTKim stood on the rooftop, his body shimmering with his newfound ability. The city below him lay in ruins, a reality to Miller’s wrath. The time had come to end this once and for all. Zero stood beside him, his face etched with decision.“We’ve trained hard for this moment, Kim. You are ready,” Zero said, placing a reassuring hand on Kim’s shoulder.Kim nodded, his eyes glowing with fierce willpower. “I know. It’s time to end this.”As they prepared, Kim felt a sudden shift in the air. A bright light descended from the heavens, and with it came a group of ethereal beings, warriors clad in shining armor, their wings spreading wide. Kim’s heart leaped as he recognized them. They were his allies from his previous life, the heavenly warriors who had fought beside him in the great battle between heaven and hell.“Kim, it’s been too long,” one of the warriors, a tall figure with golden armor and piercing blue eyes, stepped forward. “We’ve come to aid you in this final battle.
ALMOST READYIn the open training space, the air was thick with anticipation. Kim stood at the center, his breathing was steady but heavy with the weight of the task before him. Zero, circled him, chanting in an ancient language that resonated with power. The space seemed to hum with energy, the walls vibrating ever so slightly as Zero’s enchantments filled the space.It was also a moment of peace and reflection. Kim closed his eyes, focusing on the words, letting them wash over him. He felt a warmth spreading through his chest, radiating outward. Slowly, his body began to glow with a faint, ethereal light. His skin hardened, taking on a metallic sheen, and his eyes flickered with an otherworldly blue light. Zero's voice grew louder, more intense, as he poured all his energy into the enchantment."You must focus, Kim," Zero urged, his voice echoing with the power of the spell. "Feel the energy within you, let it grow, let it consume you. This is your power. Feel it! Embrace it!!"Kim'
A SEARCH FOR KIMMiller’s reign of terror showed no signs of slowing. He roamed the city, causing chaos and suffering wherever he went. Buildings were reduced to rubble, and the streets were filled with the echoes of his maniacal laughter and the cries of his victims. No one was safe from his wrath, and his powers made him nearly unstoppable.Back at his home, Miller's cruelty extended to his parents. He had turned Mr. and Mrs. Larkin into his servants, forcing them to do disgusting and humiliating tasks for his amusement. They were constantly under his watchful eye, terrified of what he might make them do next. He had turned Mr. Larkin’s money into his. He spends it however he likes and dares not complain.One evening, Miller sat in the living room, a wicked grin on his face as he watched his parents scrub the floor with toothbrushes. “Faster!” he barked, his voice dripping with malice. “I want to see my reflection in the tiles.”Mr. Larkin’s hands trembled with fatigue and rage, but
THE HAVOCMiller had become a force of chaos, rampaging through the city with an uncontrollable fury. Buildings crumbled in his wake, cars exploded, and terrified citizens fled for their lives. The news was filled with constant updates on the destruction, showing footage of Miller laughing maniacally as he wreaked havoc."He’s unstoppable!" one news anchor exclaimed, her voice filled with panic. "Miller is destroying everything in sight, and nothing seems to be able to stop him."The police, army, and navy were all deployed to contain the situation, but it was futile. Bullets and artillery had no effect on Miller. Instead, he seemed to draw power from their attempts to harm him. He attacked with ruthless efficiency, and many who faced him did not survive.Amidst the chaos, Kim was on his honeymoon with Zoey. They were enjoying a rare moment of peace when Kim’s phone rang. It was his boss."Kim, we need you," his boss said urgently. "Miller is causing mass destruction. We’ve tried ever
