During school breaks.
"I'll wait for you after school, in the alley. Watch out if you don't come. That means you're a loser!"
The message Xavier had just received made him grimace as he shook his head several times. He knew who was behind all the messages he had received since this morning.
"Hugo, where is he now? He doesn't stop."
It was all Hugo. He was doing. One of Kylian's friends was still acting like his usual self. Hating Xavier.
Hugo instigated the other gang leaders to hate Xavier. Spreading misinformation with various made-up stories. Including the two young men who fell into the ditch last night.
They were also one of the targeted gangs to join him in hating Xavier. Because he was an old friend of Kylian's and had gone to school with Xavier, he knew much about Xavier and his friends. That is why the target is not only Xavier. But also Xavier's friends.

The long-awaited time has finally come. Where Ajax's venture, Xavier's father, would be unveiled. In addition to inviting some of Ajax's friends and acquaintances along with his wife, Xavier also invited his friends to enliven the inauguration event. "Well, congratulations, Xavier. Finally, your mum and dad can open this business too. It will progress fast in the future." Ophelia did not forget to congratulate Xavier, who now looks like a young businessman. It was different from the usual. Xavier was dressed in formal attire, a suit like a young executive. And that certainly made his appearance very different from any other day at school. "Yes. Thank you for coming, Ophelia. Let's enjoy the meal." Xavier said thank you and then invited Ophelia to enjoy the event. And also the food menu that the committee has provided. The same goes for his other friends. Who was able to come to the family event this time? All of them were immersed in the atmosphere and the event with great fanfa
Since the challenge given by the system had to be decided quickly, Xavier finally accepted the challenge. "I accept the challenge." [Ring!] [Challenge accepted] [Must be able to complete and not back down from challenges] "Hmmm, all right." [Challenge 1. Choose a weapon!] [Level 0] [Strength 0] [Gift 0] [5-minute deadline] "Huh! How does it work?" [Mr Xavier can choose the weapon you want, then follow the instructions] "All right. Let's get started!" [Ring!] [Challenge time starts counting] 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% 80% 90% 100% Xavier quickly selected a small pistol available in his transparent virtual image. Of the several pictures of pistols, only the small one caught his attention. Different from the shape of a gun in general, which can be seen in some pictures online or belonging to the police. [Ring!] [Weapon selected] [Level 1] [Strength 0] [100 Rewards] "Why is Power still empty?" [Ring!] [Mr Xavier has not done anything with the selected we
"Where do we go from here?" Eren asked his other friend, who was currently resting on the sidelines of the stadium. "Let's go get something to eat!" Zen suggested. "Where to eat?" asked Zamir, who had just finished sipping his drink. Each of them brought a water bottle for their morning exercise. But as for food, none of them brought any from home. "Anywhere that's fun. Because opportunities for us like this are rare, you know?" Zen responded to Zamir's question. He didn't want to go home after finishing his workout this morning. There had to be other activities, which could make them not have to go home quickly. "I can't. I have a family event soon," lamented Maverick, who couldn't make it if they had another event after the workout. "Eh, but we're with Maverick. How are you going home?" asked Zamir, who felt bad if he let Maverick go home alone. "It's okay. I can take a taxi home or ask my siblings to pick me up." Other friends, no one knows if Maverick had his car. A gift fr
One year later. Time goes on. Activities in human life are also non-stop. Everything has become a daily routine that must be done for human survival itself. The same goes for Xavier. He continues to study for his future even though he is no longer poor. But, because education is very important for his survival and future, Xavier still puts his education and schooling first. "Tomorrow is the final exam. I pray that you can maintain your good grades." After dinner, Xavier asked his mum, Emma, for her blessing tonight. "Oh yeah. Time flies so fast. I didn't expect you to be going to university so soon," Emma smiled, having said her thoughts. Who could not believe that Xavier was no longer a weak teenager? His son was already quite popular, although Xavier did not usually perform in school events. If not for being appointed by the teacher or educator at the school. He has been unable to get rid of his shy nature in public. So people do not know him well, and some still underestimate
Today the exam is over. All the students were cheering, expressing the joy they felt. For the past few days, they have been carrying a heavy burden."Xavier!""Xavier!"Ophelia and Evelyn, in unison, called out Xavier's name. Who was currently chatting together with Eren and Maverick?Zamir and Zen were nowhere to be seen among the three of them because the rooms they used for the exam were different.Like they were in a speed race, Ophelia and Evelyn approached Xavier at the same time. It made Eren and Maverick look at each other without making a sound.They both said to themselves, "Is this a big war or just a cold war."But it turns out that their questions and guesses were wrong because Ophelia and Evelyn both hugged each other in front of Xavier.Eren nudged Maverick's shoulder, using his own. So did Maverick, who reciprocated what Eren had said to him.They didn't know that Ophelia and Evelyn were fine since the ca
Three cars entered the playground gate. One by one, the passengers got out.Maverick and Eren stretched out both hands. They were taking in as much air as possible to fill their lungs.Evelyn was no different. She seemed to be jumping up and down with joy, free from her obligation to study and continue learning.Ophelia smiled, seeing the behaviour of her friends. She also wanted to do the same thing, to vent her feelings. But since she was not a girl who easily explored moods, she could only smile and let out a long sigh—then walked after Evelyn, who had already arrived at the amusement park entrance.Next to Evelyn were Zamir and Maverick. The two were arguing over the purchase of amusement park entrance tickets.Zamir wanted to pay the bill for the admission of all his friends. But Maverick wanted the same thing because he was flush with money, courtesy of his uncle and aunt. Who had come to his house yesterday?"I paid for Zamir's
"Come on, Xavier, what's wrong?" Maverick urged Xavier to talk about the problems he might be facing. Xavier was about to open his mouth to speak. But because Maverick asked again, he closed his mouth again to speak. "I'm fine. I'm just a little dizzy," Xavier replied. He had never been to a playground like this, where there were rides. So, he was also dizzy on top of the spinning windmill. That's why he had been silent all this time. He didn't want his friends to know what he was feeling. "Oh, you're afraid of heights, huh?" With his explanation earlier, Maverick concluded even though that was not what Xavier meant. But because Xavier didn't want to argue with Maverick, he just nodded. So that Maverick would no longer wonder. "Why didn't you say so earlier, Xavier? I could have accompanied you on the other rides. There are many choices here, too," Maverick squeaked like a nagging girl. "Ah, it's okay, Maverick. It's for learning too, so I can get used to heights too." "Hahaha,
Created! The door to the room opened. Xavier walked into his room. "Sigh!!!" Xavier's long snort of breath could be heard. He did not go straight to the shower but instead laid his body on the bed. Xavier then closed his eyes. He was trying to get rid of his currently full mind. But he couldn't tell anyone. Including his parents, let alone his friends. "How do I solve all these problems, huh?" Xavier asked himself silently. [Ring!] [Mr Xavier has not completed the challenge mission] "Huh, challenge mission?" [Ring!] [Choosing a firearm] "Oh, I wonder what. Hmmm, is the mission continuing?" [Ring!] [Challenge mission resumes. The level for firearms is at level 5] "Only half?" [Ring!] [Still not much, Mr Xavier] "Then what can I do about my problem?" [Ring!] [Complete the challenge mission, Mr Xavier can know how to solve the problem at hand] "Alright. Let's get started!" [Ring!] [Mission challenge: choose a weapon] [Level: 5] [Strength: 3] [Reward: 15 points] [
