The Hunchback Son-in-law The Challenge
Logan wasn't expecting the revival Stone to work. He felt glad he could manage to return back to the living after being filled with lead. There wasn't a single scratch on his skin. This was all too amazing. Logan had never felt such rush of adrenaline before. "I warned you, Marcus. You can't kill me," he said, his eyes wide with excitement. Marcus stepped back, his hands trembling. "Wha... What are you?"Logan returned his hands to his pocket, his face stern. "That don't matter. At least now you know that you can't kill me."Marcus shouted at his men. "What are you waiting for? Reload your guns and kill this monster.'As Marcus men proceeded to reload their guns, Logan chilling voice stopped them."What do you think you're doing?" He called out, glaring at them out of the corner of his eyes. "Do you have a death wish?"The men froze. They were terrified of Logan's cold gaze and his threat. They couldn't even move a muscle. Logan frowned. "Now, nobody leaves. Anyone within this

Logan paused, his fork an inch away from his mouth. Mi-young stared at Logan for the longest time as if she had just met the president. "Logan," she called out. "What are you doing here?"Logan slowly dropped his fork down. "Mi-young? How did you know I was here?""No fair, I asked you first," Mi-young said. "I'm surprised to find you in the Golden city. Do you know grandfather's searching all over for you?"Logan never expected to run into any of the Taeyang family here in the Golden city. However, it was inevitable that he would encounter Mi-young. There was no escaping it. "I'll just leave you two alone," Julius stood up and shook Logan's hand. "I'll keep in touch with you, Logan."Logan returned an uneasy smile to him as Julius quietly left. Mi-young took Julius seat, her face tensed. "Logan, answer me.""I'm here on a mission," Logan answered. "The big boss. I'm going to overthrow him and take over this city as the new big boss."Mi-young stared at Logan as if he had gone cr
The Hunchback Son-in-law The Car dealer
[Welcome to the Door of abundance][Here the rules are simple][Defeat the car dealer]Logan read the instructions displayed on the screen carefully. "That's it?" He asked himself. "Who's this car dealer and how do I beat him?"Logan was in the middle of an unknown city. People walked passed him on the sidewalks without giving him so much as a glance. Logan was very confused. How does the system intend him to beat some stranger if he can't see who it was?Just then, he heard a man calling out on people to buy some used cars. This man was fat with a bulging stomach and a sinister look in his eyes. Apparently, nobody wants to buy what he was selling or no one seemed interested. Logan decided to approach him. "Hey, there handsome," the merchant called out to Logan as he saw him approaching. "May I interest you in some cars?"Logan stared heavenwards to the sky. There was no sun, nor sky. Just foggy clouds.Logan had an idea this was a simulation created by the system. In other w

Logan felt satisfied. At least he had bargained at a fair price, leaving him some money to spare from his $8,000 budget. He extended his hand. "You've got yourself a deal, Mister G."Mister G reluctantly shook his hand. "In all my years, you're the most strangest customer I've ever had."Logan smirked. "It's a pleasure doing business with you, Mister G."After signing the necessary documents and payment, Logan drove out of the underground lot into the deserted roads. [Congratulations! You have defeated the car dealer and secured a car. You have unlocked the second key to the Door of Valor]Logan looked around, he was surprised to see there were no more people walking around the sidewalks. Suddenly, a wide gate appeared in the middle of the road. Logan stepped out of the car and approached the gate. As soon as he drew nearer to the gate, a key appeared in his hand. "This must be the door of Valor," Logan said thoughtfully. "Let's see what's inside."Logan unlocked the gate and sw
The Hunchback Son-in-law The Trade
After Logan wore his suit, he took the key to the door and unlocked it. Stepping inside, he found himself amidst an assembly of men in the same tuxedo suit as him. They were all gathered before a man seating behind a desk. This man would called out a number and when someone with that number steps out, he hands him an envelope. Logan couldn't understand what was happening. The man behind the desk was a fat seemingly wealthy man hitting the wrong side of forty. He extravagant clothes and accessories on his body.From time to time, he would stamp on the envelope before handing them over to the number he called. Logan noticed these men don't open their envelopes. They simply collected it and moved to the other room. "System, what is this?" Logan asked in a whisper?[Welcome to the door of Fate][These envelopes determines the fate of every man gathered here. Some would receive good fortune while others won't.][Objective: To accept or Reject one's fate]Logan frowned. "To accept o
The Hunchback Son-in-law The Door of Luck
The Big boss sat in his large airy office. At fifty, the Big Boss still had his impressive looks. He was built like a boxer with a muscular physique that was beyond his age. His mere presence commanded fear and respect at whomever looked at him. He wore his white hair combed back, and his full White beard flowing down his chin. He leaned back in his leather chair, his eyes fixed on Marcus. Marcus swallowed. Whenever he stood before the big boss, he was always nervous. The room was silent for a long time before the Big boss broke it. "Marcus," the Big Boss called, his voice deep. "You have my undivided attention. Now, enlighten me about this someone who wants to overthrow me?"Marcus passed his tongue over his dry lips. "Big Boss, this man's man is Logan. He's actually new in the city, but he's not someone to be taken lightly with. He publicly announced that he's going to overthrow you and take over this city."The Big Boss cocked his head, resting his chin on his hand. "Such
The Hunchback Son-in-law The fifth door
Logan walked aimlessly around the Maze.He was confused about where he should go. This maze was huge. "Where the hell is this key?" Logan asked himself. This wasn't how he wanted things to turn out. It was almost impossible to find a pin in a maze this loud. Moreover, he only had one whole hour to find the key to the next door. Logan thought about how cruel this system has been so far, making him do dangerous stuffs to level up. Just as Logan turned round a bend, he saw a stone table placed on the ground. Logan picked up the tablet and went through it. "What's this?" He asked himself.There were strange symbols etched on the surface of the tablet. These symbols reminded him of the memories of his past. A Cresent moon, a heart shaped symbol, a cross symbol and two crossed swords. These were the only symbols inscribed on the tablet. Logan pointed at the Cresent moon symbol as he tried to decipher it. "Does this symbol represents the curvature of my spine? It looks like it's
The Hunchback Son-in-law Dinner with the Big Boss
Logan sat down next to Mi-young as the car drove towards Mi-young's hotel. "Talk to me, what happened?" Mi-young asked Logan. Logan didn't respond. He kept his head bowed while his mind raced with thoughts. Finally, he spoke. "It's been a long night, Mi-young. I'd just like to take a nap."Mi-young wasn't having any of that. "Sure but at least give me something to work with. Where the hell have you been these past four days?"Logan rubbed his temple. "I've been away. That's all I can tell you, Mi-young."Mi-young studied him. She saw the seriousness in his eyes and decided not to press the issue any further. "The Big Boss wants to see you," she revealed. "Marcus told him everything about you. I've been instructed to bring you along with me on my dinner date with the Big Boss."Logan looked at her. "That's sooner than I expected."Mi-young shrugged. "I'm meeting with him tonight, two hours from now to be precise."Logan couldn't believe it. He was going to meet the Big Boss in two

Five months after, the Taeyang's wedding was finally hosted. Billionaires, celebrities, and influential figures from across the globe filled the pews. Logan stood at the pulpit, he was dressed in an expensive tailored suit as he waited for his brides. The grand doors of the church slowly swung open and the bride's started coming in. Ava, Yuna, Mi-young, Isabel, and Grace were all dressed in the finest wedding gown money could buy. Logan never thought they were this beautiful. They look like fallen angels. Kim Taeyang escorted them as they walked down the aisle together. He wore a proud look on his face. Kim Taeyang handed his granddaughters to Logan then returned back to his seat. The priest commenced the ceremony. "Dear beloved, we've all come today to witness the union of Logan and the Taeyang sisters in holy matrimony."The priest went further to start the vow taking. The Taeyang sisters formed a circle each holding each others hand. Logan took Ava's hand then Yuna's, com

Proposal
Logan knelt on both knees as he faced the Taeyang sisters. Ava, Yuna, Mi-young, Isabel and Grace surrounded him. "I know you probably hate me by now," Logan said. "I owe each and everyone of you an apology. I'm deeply sorry for abandoning you for six months. It was never my intention to stay away that long. I had to deal with things that I couldn't involve you in. That's why I didn't come back."Silence. The Taeyang sisters stared at him. Logan thought they would lash at him just like Grace did with him. But surprisingly, Ava stepped forward. "Logan, stand up."When Logan stood up and lifted his eyes to meet hers, he stiffened. There were tears in Ava's eyes. "Logan, you have no idea how much I've missed you. I thought you'd never come back. I'm happy you came."Isabel approached him. She was all smiles. "I also forgive you, Logan. We all do. It's been a messy six months, but we understood you had thing's you wanted to sort out by yourself."Logan looked down at her swollen belly

Promise
"I am Logan, the Taeyang sisters boyfriend," Logan declared. Tom Hankins face suddenly changed into a mask of hate. "So, you're the bastard Yuna keeps yapping about, huh?""I'm glad you've heard of me," Logan replied. "That makes things easier for both of us.""No it doesn't," Tom snapped. "You're all the Taeyang sisters talk about. I've tried repeatedly to court them but they're so obsessed with you it's sickening."Logan rubbed the back of his head, laughing embarrassingly. "Sorry you had to go through all that. I don't know how I did it either.""Don't feel sorry for me," Tom brawled. "The Taeyang family are facing a serious financial crises after you abandoned them. What are you going to do about it, boy?"Logan took a deep breath, then he spoke, "I've offered to buy Kim Taeyang's shares. I'll settle the company's debt and boost its stocks."Tom's laughter echoed in the room. "Wait a minute, You? This must be a sitcom. Where the hell are you going to get that kind of money, Loga

Tom Hankins
Taeyang groups was at the edge of collapsing. Tom Hankins, a wealthy business tycoon offered to buy Kim Taeyang's shares. With that comes a second price. He wants to marry three of the Taeyang sisters, Mi-young, Yuna and Grace. "Of course I declined," Kim Taeyang said as their cars pulled up outside Taeyang groups. "But Tom Hankins isn't the type of man to give up that easily. When he wants something he gets it."Logan and grace stepped out of the car and followed Kim Taeyang into the lobby. "He must think you're very desperate," Logan commented. "That's why he's piling up the pressure on you to sell since you're the major shareholder.""Left for me, I wouldn't sell," Kim Taeyang said. "But what about our shareholders, our investors and our clients? We need to think about what they want. Selling off my shares might just save the company but if I do that, I'll also be selling off my granddaughters."Logan didn't say anything as they approached the receptionist counter. The recepti

Debts
Logan felt very emotional. He had expected Kim Taeyang to hate him, but instead, Kim Taeyang forgave him and even welcomed him back. "Mr Kim," Logan's face hardened. "I promise you this, I'll fix this whole mess if it's the last thing I do."Kim Taeyang raised an eyebrow. "I know you're very incredible, Logan, but can you really?"Just as Logan was about to answer, the door opened and Grace stepped inside. She stiffened when she saw Logan. Then her eyes widened as she glanced at her grandfather and saw how well he was."I don't believe it," she rushed over to her grandfather and embraced him. "Grandfather, you've recovered. I thought I'd never see you again. Thank goodness you're still alive."Logan watched them as Kim Taeyang returned her bug with a reassuring kiss on her forehead. "It's okay, my pretty," he said. "I'm fine now. It's all thanks to Logan. He healed me."Grace broke her hug then casted her gaze at Logan. She wasn't smiling. Her countenance was dark. "I'm sorry, g

Divine healing
The gate opened in the streets of Seoul as Logan stepped out of the portal. "It's so good to be back," Logan said, breathing in the air. Then he frowned. "Something feels off. The air smells a bit crisp."Logan navigated his way through the busy side walk. "I hope I wasn't gone too long?"Suddenly, he stopped walking as he stood before a newspaper vendor. Something caught his eyes. It was the headline on the front page. Written in bold letters, Logan read out loud. "Taeyang family faces financial crises as Kim Taeyang battles illness?"Logan grabbed a copy and quickly skimmed through the article, his heart pounding. From Logan's finding, it was revealed that Kim Taeyang suddenly fell ill. Being the family's patriarch, his deteriorating health led to instability within the family businesses. The Taeyang conglomerate future now hangs in the balance as the Taeyang sisters and their few investors struggled to keep the company afloat. Logan's hands were shaking as he realized all the

Quest completed
Logan glanced at Thandolwethu out of the corner of his eyes. "You seriously want to do this?" He asked. Thandolwethu grunted. "Try me. I'm not playing around."Logan chuckled softly. "If you think you're going to win against me by blowing yourself up, then you're in for a surprise because I can't die."Thandolwethu scoffed. "As if.""I'll make you an offer," Logan said. "I'll let you live if you take me to the Mona Lisa. I promise not to hurt you.""You think I'll easily betray my mistress?" Thandolwethu said angrily. "For your information, I've sworn my loyalty to the Mona Lisa. You can't change my mind."Logan started walking towards the stairs. Thandolwethu stiffened in shock. "Why are you moving? I'll pull the strings if you take another step."Logan kept walking. It was as if he had gone deaf all of a sudden. Sweat beads formed on Thandolwethu's face as she cried out. "You bastard! Don't you fear death?"Logan was now ascending up the stairs. He glanced at her out of the corn

The final battle
Andrei pointed his finger at Logan. "By orders of the Mona Lisa, we are tasked to kill you. If you can make it out of the battle field alive, then take the stairs where Thandolwethu stands."Logan stared at Thandolwethu. He could tell she was skillful but that was all there is to her. There was nothing special about her. "Is that it?" Logan asked looking very confident. Andrei gritted his teeth. "You sound cocky but let me give you a warning. Don't underestimate Thandolwethu. She may look frail but she's a blood lusted killer."Logan shrugged. "I'll be the judge of that.""The stairs lead to the elevator. If by any chance, you survived Thandolwethu and killed her, you can take the elevator and head for room 204. The Mona Lisa would be waiting for you," Andrei said. Logan couldn't believe it. They were putting everything on the plate for him. All he had to do was defeat Andrei and Thandolwethu and the Mona Lisa was his. Just like that. Logan had an idea the Mona Lisa was settin
