"Hm?" Oscar flung his eyes open. Although they were a bit drowsy, he was able to make out the faint outlines of a hospital walls.

He couldn't help but release a self mocking smile. Heck! he vomited blood and fainted all because of a girl.

He had known Laura since they were in high school and had been in a relationship. Although he wasn't well off, he strived to satisfy her as much as he could.

Even to the point that he abandoned his blind mother in the village. He felt like life was playing a joke on him.

-[Heh. Life is unfair too. You are not alone on that bro!] he heard a voice.

Strangely, it came from his head.

"Ah, i can't believe the heartbreak made me start hearing things. Laura, you have really outdone yourself!" Oscar thouit he was at the first phase of madness.

At that moment, the medallion he wore released a burst of brilliant light that materialized into the form of a slim figure.

It was a boy who didn't look more older than Oscar. He had a stylish haircut and clothes that just screamed SWAG!

"Who are you?!" Oscar's heart almost leapt up his throat.

He had always heard of ghosts but he always believed them to be fake.

What if this guy was a ghost?

-[Don't be scared now. I am the artifact spirit of that medallion. My name is Hunks] the suave phantasm introduced.

"You mean this? how can you be the spirit of this.. this thing"

The medallion was given to him by his blind mother. According to her, it was a family heirloom which brought good luck to the wearer. Although he didn't quite believe it since he had once tried selling it off at an antique store to buy an expensive branded bag for Laura.

However, the shop keeper threw him out saying the medallion was a fake rip off.

Since then, Oscar just wore it on his neck, hoping that it would be just as what his mother claimed..

A lucky charm!

-[Since you managed to awaken me, i will grant unto you the first inheritance. Once you reach a suitable level in strength, you can then recieve the second, third, fourth, fifth, and on and on]

"Inheritance? what inheri.."

Oscar was interrupted by a sudden headache. It was as if his head was somebody was constantly smashing his head with a sledge hammer.

The pain lasted for a full ten minutes. Then it suddenly vanished.

Pant. Pant. Pant.

Oscar felt like he had just ran a marathon. The hospital bed was soaked with his sweat.

He suddenly heard a mechanical voice in his head.

-[Congratulations. Host has been bonded to the Super Centillion system]

-[Host shall rise from the ashes like a phoenix and soar into the skies]

-[Host Profile]

-Name: Oscar Benson

-Planet: Earth

-System: Sol

-Galaxy: Milky Way

-[Host Attributes]

Level: Commoner

-Combat: Weakest tier

-[Skills]

-None

-[Shop]

-None

-[Items]

-None

-[Missions]

-[Points]

-Centi Points: 0

Yep! Oscar gave up on himself. First he was hearing things, now he was imagining things..

-[Ping! You have received an item!]

-[Item Info]

-Name: Centi Card

-Balance: 10 Centillion dollars

Just at that moment, a golden card with pitch black stars numbering twelve materialized before him.

Yup! i'm seeing things now!

Curious, Oscar stretched out his hands, expecting them to phase through the floating card.

Hm?

He brought the card over for inspection. The card felt extremely cold and at the same time, hot. It did look like a bank card, but Oscar couldn't identify just what material it was made of.

While he was drowning in his own thoughts, the door swung open. A man in secs and white lab coat walked in.

"You are awake?!" the doctor gasped when he saw the patient seated.

"I Just got up. What hospital am i? what happened to me? what time of the year is it?"

The doctor ignored the torrents of questions. Only after checking Oscar's temperature and pulse did he flash the anxious patient a refreshing smile.

"You were brought in here by a fat young man who claims to be your classmate. You were suffering from cardiac arrest and wrong blood flow. You should thank your stars that you managed to survive. Everybody thought you were going to die"

Oscar remained silent. He couldn't believe that Laura's break up caused his body to react so much.

"Did anybody come to visit me apart from the fatty?" he asked.

"Now that you mention, a girl came visiting. She even brought you flowers" the doctor pointed at a coupon of beautiful flowers besides Oscar's bed.

Oscar's eyes lit up.

"Who was it? Did she drop her name?" he was excited at the prospect of Laura visiting to check up on him.

She still cares after all!

"Uhm. She said her name was Goldie. She was a blonde"

Oscar expression turned red. Goldie visited him?

Goldie Martins was like the most popular girl on campus. Not only was she the number one beauty, she was also intelligent.

She was like the perfect goddess, earning her plenty of male simps.

Although many guys tried dating her, she never treated their advances seriously.

Oscar had no idea why she would visit him.

"Since you are fine and kicking, it is time we discuss your dischargement" the doctor countenance became serious.

"You spent a week in the hospital. Your bill is six thousand bucks" he said, while scribbling down on his report book.

Oscar scratched his head. Six thousand?! his monthly earning was just five hundred bucks!

How could he cough out such a large sum.

He didn't even consider borrowing since he still had a lot of debtors.

He suddenly remembered the strange black card that

resembled a debit card.

"Uh, okay. But i can only pay through card" he took a leap of faith.

He was gambling on the possibility that there was funds in whatever account the card was linked to.

On the doctor's order, a nurse brought a POS machine over.

Sliding the bank card, Oscar unconsciously inputted his bank pin.

"Aish!" it was already too late when he realized his folly.

Ping!

Transaction Successful!

Oscar was gobsmacked when he saw these words on the POS machine.

Wtf! was this machine broken or something?

But that wasn't all. A notification rang in his head.

-[Host has completed mission.. gain your first 1 centi point. Host shall receive the allocated mission rewards]

-[Host has received 10 lottery tries]

-[Host has received 6 centi point]

Wtf!

After his discharge, Oscar didn't return back to campus. The news of him fainting after a break up must be the current hottest topic.

He going back there would just be asking for a load of mockery and jeerings.

Although he had a really thick face, he had better things to do.

Glu Mobiles

Oscar walked into the phone shop. Instantly, he was grabbed by two of the shop staffs.

    "Sir, there's no need for that" Sean replied respectfully. "Do you mind checking the house first before making the payment?" "I'd rather do it now" Oscar smiled faintly. Hearing his reply, Sean's face twitched a bit. "Alright. But i'll have to link you up with the owner so you can make the purchase. We are just a third party" he explained. "Do your thing" Oscar plopped back onto the waiting bench and began playing games on his phone. Sean laughed dryly and put a call across. "Hello Mr. Weymer" "What is it Sean?" a matured voice rang from the other end, containing hints of impatience. "A lad is at my place. He wishes to buy your estate's West Eagle manor" Sean chuckled. "Say what?!" the other party gasped in shock. "I'd advise you hurry up or this lad might change his mind" Sean clicked his tongue, ending the call. He couldn't help feeling some pride. White Lotus Garden was a luxury estate owned by Mr. Weymer and two of his cousins who were major share holders.The estate w

    Mr. Weymer finally left after some bits of idle chats with Oscar. During their discussion, he had tried many times to goad Oscar into revealing his identity. Too bad Oscar was extremely shameless and thick skinned, dismissing the probings and pretending to be dumb. Helpless, Mr. Weymer could only bid his fare well to Oscar, but not before leaving a card behind. "This is a diamond tier ownership card. If you are to patronize any of our business within the estate, you would be accorded with the highest tier elite treatment" Oscar remembered Mr. Weymer's words after he dropped the card. Inspecting the card, he couldn't help but marvel at the extravagent card made out of precious stone. Stowing the card into the system inventory, he brought out his phone, noticing the damaged screen. "I'll get a new one" he mumbled merrily. At that moment, he felt a pang of hunger. Apart from the mini bar, there was nothing consumable in the house.... Crusty Krab was a pretty well known resta

The walls and floor were tiled with a kind of tiles that Oscar didn't know. But he definitely knew it was bound to be expensive.Inhaling the orchid scent, Oscar unconsciously mumbled."Wow!""There are only six VIP rooms in the restaurant. Usually, renting one of such rooms is thirty thousand dollars per hour. But since you have a diamond tier ownership card, you can dine in here anytime you want. There is also a landline where you can call the kitchen staffs and make your orders. Don't forget to pay up at the cashier booth after eating.

    "I'll speak with you later on a zoom" Oscar said as he was escorted out from the office building of Wu Republic Media by Madame Wura.

"Uhm Mr. Oscar, it would seem that your chauffeur is yet to arrive?" Madame Wura commented as she casted her sharp gaze around, however she didn't see any exotic car parked at the garage, except for her sedan. "I'll prefer to walk" Oscar smiled as he attempted to take his leave. How could Madame Wura miss out from such a good opportunity?! "How can I let you do that!" she shook her head vehemently, appearing like she was the one about to do the trekking and not Oscar. "What do you mean?" Oscar gave her a knowing look as a smirk appeared on his cheeks. He could already more or less figure what she was about to do. "I am just trying to look out for you.

    "So what was your reason for coming?" After about ten minutes, Oscar eventually managed to convince Madame Wura that he wasn't a member of the Rising Krillin Mansion, and neither was he acting on their behalf. "Due to the earlier misunderstanding, I didn't get to introduce myself" Oscar didn't answer her question right away. "My name is Oscar and I am the CEO of Mo Bucks Inc" he introduced himself. "Mo Bucks Inc? excluding the fact that the name sounds lame and childish, I don't recall ever hearing about that kind of Company even among the list of third tier companies in this city" Oscar pinched his brows.. "You don't have to be so blunt about it. I newly created the company which is why you haven't heard of it. But trust me it's going to be the main topic on everyone's lips in time to come" Oscar had a confident smile on his face as he said this.

Oscar didn't know why, but his tone became unfriendly. "My young master is Young Master Kings... Tommy Kings!" "Tommy Kings?" Oscar frowned. "Why would he want to meet up with her? does he know her from somewhere?" Oscar questioned the messenger who only frowned with displeasure. "And who the fvck are you huh?" the messenger sized up Oscar with a haughty gaze. "I was speaking to the lady. Who are you to butt in huh?"

    Silver Haven City Hall was a large building structure, stationed at the heart of the bustling city. Usually, this building hardly had any visitors, but on this particular day, it was different. Currently, the premises of the City Hall was bustling with activity as the most important people in the city arrived one after the others, riding expensive and luxury vehicles.. Although Sandy's limo was an expensive automobile that was sure to attract attention on any road she drove on, it looked completely normal in the face of the fleets of expensive cars at the parking lot of the City Hall. "So many?!" Oscar was nearly blinded by the sheer amount of luxury cars before his eyes. Silver Haven was a large city and although he had kind of anticipated such a scene, he was still left reeling in shock and surprise. "We should go. The event would be happening in the next five minutes" Sandy's chauffeur opened the doors for them as they alighted down. Casting his eyes over the City Hall, Os

    "So this is the office building of your company" amazement was plastered on Johnny's face as he gazed at the sky rising building structure of Cloud Peach Grove. Besides him was Sandy, Oscar and Trunks. It was currently at the peak of noon. Currently, there was a fleet of delivery vehicles with their staffs offloading various equipments like chairs, laptops, tables, etc into the office building. "Let me give you a tour around the company building. This is going to be you guys workplace in the future , so it's best you familiarize yourself with the environment" Trunks suggested to the two new comers.
