The Man With System Chapter 230 - Fire Him Now!
"But would you like to rest for a moment?" Lessie didn't know that these people were here on the orders of her young mistress. "I can tell them if you don't want to see them."Lessie said this because she thought Lily needed time to calm down after what had happened to her uncle."No! I'll meet them!" Lily replied a bit coldly, then hurriedly entered the house and went to the living room.As soon as the directors saw Lily's arrival, they all immediately rose from their seats. Their faces, which had been a little tense earlier, became even more tense. They did not know why the young lady had summoned them so suddenly."Greetings, Miss Lily!" they said, bowing at the same time and then straightening up.Lily said nothing, just looked at everyone present. "Just you? Where is that bastard manager?""Please forgive us, but I brought everyone here!" The sixty year old man standing at the front was Barney Guillan. He was the CEO of Star Company."Everyone?" As usual, Lily spoke in a loud ton
The Man With System Chapter 231 - Shouldn't You Reconsider Your Decision?
"Miss, forgive me." Barney spoke as low and quietly as possible, still bowing. "But is what I heard true?"Barney knew Lily very well. When she said something, she meant it. However, the CEO had said it with a certain purpose. "I'm sorry, again. But shouldn't you reconsider?"Lily widened her eyes. "Wasn't I clear enough? Fire him immediately! There's nothing left to think about!""Miss, forgive me." This time it was a woman in her fifties who spoke. Dressed in formal attire, she was the finance director, one of those who agreed with Chesley's promotion. "But Mr. Quaman is someone Mr. Kent trusts. Shouldn't you reconsider?"This woman wasn't new to the company either, so she knew Lily's character. However, she felt compelled to brave the situation for the sake of the company.Lily just shook her head. "No! I said no! There's nothing to think about!" Unlike before, her tone wasn't as high. Maybe it was because she was talking to a woman."Besides, what if he was someone Kent recommende
The Man With System Chapter 232 - The Reason Behind the Firing
Lily actually considered explaining the reason for Chesley's dismissal to the entire board within the next day or two. But then, after thinking about it for a while, she changed her mind. "Maybe it's better if they don't know the real truth!"After all, what use would it be for them to know her real reason if she believed that all her actions were in vain?A week ago."Miss, the new marketing director has been chosen." In the living room of this house, Albert handed Lily a stack of documents containing Chesley's biodata and track record. "He was also personally selected by Mr. Kent."Lily carefully read the information. It didn't take long for her sharp mind to notice the discrepancies in the report. "He made almost two hundred percent profit just one month after becoming branch manager?" the girl asked, not taking her eyes off the paper."Yes, miss," Albert replied. "Are you thinking the same thing I am?" The old man had already suspected that there was something wrong with this man
The Man With System Chapter 233 - The Reason Behind the Firing (2)
"Miss, your company is really kind. I'm willing to send you a hundred uniforms if you want them!" The restaurant owner continued to speak happily, unaware that the girl in front of him was the owner of Star Company."No, just one is enough! And..." Lily then brought her mouth closer to the restaurant owner's ear. "Can I ask for one that fits my height?"The next day, this morning, Lily wore the uniform and rode the scooter she had asked Albert to provide. The girl went straight to Star Company, carrying a box of food for Chesley. Of course, Lily was disguised as a fast-food worker because Chesley hadn't ordered anything today.When Lily arrived in Chesley's room, she immediately placed the box of food on his desk. "Sir, is there anything else I can do for you?" she said in a teasing tone.Chesley knew the meaning of such a question. Of course, he didn't waste the opportunity. "Ah, sure! It seems there's something I'd like to ask of you!" He then invited Lily up to the roof."Darling,
The Man With System Chapter 234 - Regret Always Comes Too Late
After saying that, Lily walked out of the main Astor house, holding back the tears in her eyes as best she could. It was also the last time she set foot in that house and the last time she spoke to her uncle.Lily didn't know, and perhaps she would never know, that Kent had shed tears after she had left the house, something that had never happened to him, not even at the death of River, his father."You're right, Lily! You're absolutely right!" Kent said, unable to hold back the tears that seemed ready to flow from his eyes."Brother, didn't I tell you not to take my car? Why didn't you listen to me?" Kent felt deep sadness as he remembered how Finn had been so insistent on borrowing his car back then.Like Lily, Kent's heart was truly broken when he heard the news of Finn's death.Finn wasn't just a brother. He was a father figure for Kent.This was because River was a very strict, harsh, and cunning figure. He wouldn't hesitate to punish anyone, including his children, if they made
The Man With System Chapter 235 - Someone Always On Her Mind
Lily didn't know how long she'd been crying. Exhausted, she had fallen asleep on her bed without noticing. When she opened her eyes, it was late afternoon, almost dark.She slowly got out of her room and went downstairs. She saw Lessie sitting on the table with her hands resting on her chin, her face showing clear signs of sadness and worry.When the woman saw Lily coming down the stairs, she immediately got up from her chair."Miss, ..." She wanted to ask if the girl was all right, but the question stuck in her throat. She was afraid the question would upset the girl.Lily said nothing. As soon as she came downstairs, she walked over to Lessie and hugged her."Auntie, will you call me like you used to?" Her voice was weak and slightly hoarse. She spoke as she hugged the woman tightly.When Finn was alive, Lessie called Lily by her name because that was the girl's own wish. Lily wanted to be called that because she didn't have an aunt. She wanted to feel what it was like to have one.
The Man With System Chapter 236 - An Intruder?
"Darrin!"Lily cried softly, squeezing her palms together in frustration. It was a feeling of desperately wanting something, but not being sure if you could get it. Or it was like being angry at someone who wasn't there for you to vent your anger at.Lily tossed and turned on the bed, her mind filled with thoughts of the young man. She couldn't open or close her eyes because she would only see the same figure. Not knowing what else to do, she sat on the bed and stared at the very old olive tree that grew in her front yard.Closing her eyes, Lily spoke softly, with all her heart and soul. "Darrin, please come! Come to me tonight!"She knew that hoping for Darrin to come might be something impossible. But she remembered what her mother had taught her. "If you want something, ask for it with all your heart and soul, and then pursue it earnestly!""I promise I will never be angry with you again," the girl said again. "I just want you to come. Please come," she said, still with her eyes cl
The Man With System Chapter 237 - An Unwanted Arrival
Sigh!Darrin sighed deeply. Perhaps he would never know that the girl had done this by mistake. In her excitement, Lily had given him the wrong business card!"Hmmm, whatever! Maybe she was just kidding." On the one hand, Darrin was relieved that his suspicion that Lily had feelings for him was not true.But on the other hand, for some reason it made him wonder about himself, because he was starting to think about the girl again. "But why do I keep thinking about her?"Ignoring his thoughts, Darrin moved his hand again. "I'd better go home now."Meanwhile, at Lily's house.The girl's eyes widened, unable to believe what she saw. A man in a black coat that reached to his ankles was staring at her from the first floor. "Are you just going to stand there? Come down and greet me, beautiful!"As he said this, the man's lips curved into a broad smile, making his already perverted face even more disgusting."Wh-who are you?" Lily asked, still not moving from her spot. "How did you get in?"T

Darrin nodded. "I understand, my queen."The way Darrin answered made Helena blush again. She was now confident that she could give the item to him.Once the earring was in his hand, Darrin removed the green gem that was its pendant and attached it to his Moreau necklace.Green and red light emanated from the necklaces, reaching as far as the clouds and piercing them.At that moment, a light appeared from behind the clouds. Moments later, a female figure, adorned in gold from head to toe, smiled at him. Darrin immediately knelt down, for the woman's features indicated that she was the Moon Goddess Fenrisar had described."Since you have completed your first trial, accept this as your reward." The goddess raised the golden staff in her hand, and a golden ray descended to the earth and merged with Darrin's body.The goddess then vanished. But Darrin felt something strange happening to his body.He raised his hand and saw it transform into water, fire, earth, air, and all the elements of

"Why? Why are you doing this? No!"Splash!Darrin's scream faded as his body fell into the water. But the scream continued to echo in his heart even as his body began to sink to the bottom of the lake."Why did you sacrifice yourself for me? Why didn't you let me do it for you?"Darrin felt completely devastated. Not only because he had failed to protect the princess, but also because he had failed to protect his other loved ones before."Why does everyone close to me have to suffer such a tragic fate? Why can't I protect them?"The regret and grief grew stronger in his heart as his body sank deeper into the lake.At the same time, he felt his chest tighten and it became difficult to breathe. It seemed that Helena's plan to save Darrin would end in failure, as the young man's weakened body made it impossible for him to use any internal energy or technique to help him breathe.Darrin understood this, and it only deepened his regret."If only you had gone into the lake instead, perhaps

Chapter 343 - Helena's Sacrifice
"Greetings to you, Mother!" The Dark Knight could not contain the joy in his heart as he saw the young woman rise from the ground and look in his direction. "I-I know you may not have expected us to rouse you from your slumber. But..."The Dark Knight did not hesitate to reveal his intentions to the young woman who was, after all, his biological mother. "We've been going through a lot of trouble lately, and we need your help."The Dark Knight continued to pour his heart out. Although it had been a long time since he had last spoken to his mother, he was not embarrassed to say anything."Mother, there's one more thing I want to ask you. It's about the position of Prime Minister in the kingdom. Since I'm the one who woke you up, would you be willing to give me that position?"All this time, the Dark Knight had seemed obedient to Theobaldus, or even to his nephew Nicolaus. Yet deep in his heart, he held a grudge against them."But I hope you don't misunderstand. I don't want the title. I

Chapter 342 - Finding the Vial
Spurt!At the edge of the lake, Darrin vomited large amounts of water from his mouth after Helena had pumped his chest several times. After that, it was clear that Darrin was gasping for air, as if he had run out of oxygen. But he still couldn't open his eyes."Darrin, wake up!""Wake up, Darrin!"He faintly heard a soft and melodious voice in his ear. At the same time, a gentle hand stroked his cheek.When Darrin finally managed to open his eyes, he saw a beautiful figure sitting right in front of him."Your Highness..."Helena was no longer wearing the leather mask that had sunk to the bottom of the lake. With her hair and clothes still wet, she looked exceptionally beautiful."Thank goodness you're awake!" Helena couldn't hide the happiness on her face as she saw the young man begin to open his eyes. Darrin might not be able to see it, but the feelings in the princess's heart for him had grown much deeper and stronger than before.Earlier, when Helena had seen Nicolaus about to hit

Chapter 341 - A Punch, Once Again
When Hector left Arcadia, he probably never imagined that his plans would change so quickly. Originally, he intended to take the vial, give it to Darrin and leave. Unexpectedly, he lost Darrin sooner than he expected.And after seeing the cold form of Queen Marielle lying in the coffin, it was as if he could see the end of the world through her. This sight only strengthened his resolve."All right, one more time!" Hector had made up his mind to destroy the vial. No matter what he had to do, no matter how great the sacrifice, he would do it.Catching his breath and releasing his right hand that had been held by his left, Hector tried to rise from his sitting position, preparing for the next attack."Don't even think about trying that again, because I won't just stand by!" Nicolaus pointed his finger at Hector's face from the other end. Apparently, he was not ready to give up so easily either. "I will destroy you, or vice versa!"Both men had suffered severe injuries to their right hand

Chapter 340 - A Strike to Destroy the Vial
The incident threw the top of the tower into chaos. The mages immediately rushed to the stairs and descended hastily. Meanwhile, the soldiers below stood on alert. They did not approach the top of the tower, nor did they dare do so without Nicolaus' orders. But they were ready at a moment's notice."Darrin!" Hector shouted, clenching both fists. He knew how devastating the strike of a cultivator at the peak of the King level could be when unleashed at full power. As he had just witnessed.On the other side, as if Hector's presence meant nothing to him, Nicolaus rose from his kneeling position, clutching the vial in his hand. His face was dark and expressionless. As he moved toward the coffin, he himself opened the grandmother's mouth."Nicolaus, I beg you, at least listen to my explanation!" Hector fought to control his anger, trying to speak to the ruler of Green Island with a cool head. "I don't want to force you to change your mind, but please listen to me."Nicolaus lifted his eye

Nicolaus asked gently, a smile on his face. His demeanor naturally made Helena feel a little more at ease, allowing her to speak her heart without fear."Yes, Your Majesty. I am very worried that he won't be able to cure them without this medicine. Therefore, I would be very grateful if you could spare a little for him."Helena spoke with bright eyes, as if she was doing something very important for herself. But at that moment, her face suddenly tensed. "Oh no, what did I just say?" she thought to herself. "I made a huge mistake!"And just as she had feared, Nicolaus' face turned red. Extremely red."My God, what will happen now?" As she thought this, Helena could see the change in the king's expression. It was clear that he was suppressing his anger."So it's true what I thought," Nicolaus said in a trembling and frightened tone. "The one in your heart is that bastard, not me! So why did you deceive me with your sweet words?"When Helena accepted Nicolaus' proposal and agreed to marr

Nicolaus said nothing but lowered his head."Nico, tell me, is this girl the one you're looking for?" Theobaldus shouted, anger and frustration evident in his voice.On the one hand, they had lost the potion, and the position of the full moon in the sky had shifted. Even if they found the potion and revived the queen, it would still be a grave sin for them.On the other hand, he was furious with his nephew for being so blinded by love."You sacrificed the future of the kingdom for a girl? Since when did you become so weak?"His anger made him forget the rule of not speaking ill of anyone in this sacred place."Tell me, are you...""Yes, I am looking for her, uncle. I really am," Nicolaus shouted back.He hated himself for being weak because of his feelings for the girl. But deep in his heart he believed that Helena was really there."I didn't just hear her voice. I could smell her scent. I'm sure it's the same scent I smelled this morning!""What?"Suddenly, Theobaldus jumped. Not bec

Chapter 337 - The Unexpected Appearance
The chanting of the mages grew louder as the full moon crept a few degrees from its perfect alignment above the tower. They continued to recite a birthing spell, hoping for the best in the queen's resurrection.After nearly half an hour, the mages suddenly shouted in unison, "Queen Marielle is heaven, and she will bless us forever!"Their chant echoed throughout the island. A second later, Nicolaus, Theobaldus, and all the soldiers guarding the area shouted the same mantra. "Queen Marielle is heaven, and she will always bless us!"When the echo of the voices died down, the moon was directly above the tower, illuminating the face and body of Queen Marielle as she lay in the glass coffin.Nicolaus and Theobaldus rose from their positions on the floor and approached the coffin."Greetings to you, Mother. Queen, ruler of the universe, and grace to the world." As he spoke, Theobaldus kissed the queen on the cheek.At that moment, there was a stark contrast between Queen Marielle and Theoba
