The Revenger's System 31. Objective Two
Ryan turned his head, finding the grey-haired Mr. Presidnet beside him. He didn’t look at Ryan but trained his eyes on the boxing ring on the floor under them. Awkwardly, Ryan introduced himself, “I’m Ryan Wilder. Jared Crowne’s … acquintance.”“Ah, Jared, hmm? Good luck with that with the strongest fighter here.”Sure, he was indeed lucky to have a relationship with someone like Jared. But, strongest fighter?“So,” Mr. President continued without introducing himself back, leaving Ryan unable to put a name on his face, “Who do you put money on?”“Money?”Mr. President glanced sharply, “Didn’t Jared tell you, already?”Ryan shook his head. “He just asked me to be here and see how he does a business meeting.”“Business meeting, he said?” Mr. President chuckled again, “I guess you can call it that. Everyone here is the sponsor of this fight. We all have a fighter to represent us.”“For what?”“The winner will get 5% of the losers’ company shares. Pretty good, isn’t it?”Ryan didn’t say a
The Revenger's System 32. Solo Leveling
Descending to the underground fighting area, Ryan was left in the sweaty locker room.Jared had entered another door, which he suspected to be much better than this windowless room with broken air conditioning. The lights weren’t better with their flickerings and buzzing, but he appreciated the time to prepare. Although there was nothing to b prepared at the moment.Sitting on one of the benches, he took his phone and saw no text he received. For a moment, he expected Violet to text him, but who was he kidding?A snicker was heard.Ryan turned his head to the left, finding two men on the other side of the locker room. One of them was dressed in a suit, while the other was just in his boxer briefs, showing all of his bulky muscles.“You sure you want to fight, mate?” the muscled boxer briefs said. From the mocking smile on his face, he was the one who laughed at him before.“What about it?”The muscled boxer briefs lifted his hands, “You go get your money, that’s why we’re here anyway.
The Revenger's System 33. Danger Void
Danger Void proved to be a handy ability.Ryan was forever thankful that he got it easy. The ability didn’t care about his malnourished physique nor about his lack of skill and experience in martial arts. No hit and punch could harm him anymore.So, going against two more fighters – both inexperienced and experienced ones – was easy. He evaded all their attacks, so it was only a matter of time until he could lay his punches and make them give up.By midnight, the underground fighting floor was blaring with cheers and heavy curses directed at him. To say the least, it wasn’t his fault that the fighter the audience bet on lost to him and his lousy punches.He didn’t care.Ryan came down here to give Jared a taste of his own medicine.“What a marvelous performance from our contender tonight!”The lights blinded him for a second. He didn’t like it.“And now, for the last fight,” the host paused for a dramatic effect, “Our champion, our hero, who have fighst countless opponents in this ver
The Revenger's System 34. About System and the Likes
There was no news about Jared’s victory last night, but Ryan’s beaten body was a trophy on its own.TEETS didn’t heal him. Not its obligation, it said. It only healed him that first time as a kind of gift and to make sure that Ryan's decision regarding TEETS’ installation was sound.[Do you want to call an ambulance?]Somehow, upon his easy defeat in Exhibit X’s ring, TEETS had become quite chatty. Perhaps TEETS didn’t want him as the Host to die so early. And that brought a question in his head.‘What happen if I die before achieving my goal?’Although Ryan was alone in his newly-bought house and was free to speak to himself, his jaw, his entire face, and his stomach were hurt to move. He could only lay on the couch in the living room, having no energy to bring himself upstairs.[TEETS success rate will decrease.]‘So what? You’ll disappear?’[All Systems will unmake once the success rate drop below 50% and then remake with different formats to ensure its success.]‘What’s your rate?
The Revenger's System 35. The Clown
Early in the evening, Ryan set out with his newly bought convertible. He was following behind Jared’s car, driving under the gloomy sky of London and through its less populated street.His older brother-in-law had offered to ride together, but he wasn’t in the mood to deal with that CEO prick. Moreover, he didn’t want to buy another car just because Jared dumped him on an unfamiliar street.That being said, he’d just follow the CEO prick to whatever meeting place it was.About half an hour later, Jared’s car slowed down to a stop on a side road. The block was filled with red brick buildings and trees along the pedestrian. Several other cars lined up, not less fancy than the ones they owned.Getting out of the convertible, Ryan looked around his surroundings. A movie theater, beauty salon, several office buildings, and a few restaurants with their dim lights, contrary to neon bright, fast food service. Most buildings there were closed, either out of business or empty, but Jared walked
The Revenger's System 36. To Start an Espionage
It had been a while since he met Violet.After two days of sleeping on medication, Ryan rose from his bed feeling fresher. As he went to the master bathroom, he was quite glad to find no broken nose and blue and yellow bruises on his face. In fact, there was no single soreness in his body anymore.He checked in a clinic, saying he got into a bar fight last night, so the doctor and nurses weren’t suspicious. He could easily report Exhibit X as an illegal fighting club to the police, but he had another plan for it.That being said, Ryan was ready to kickstart his plan.He ruffled his hair with a towel to dry it, slightly shivering from the cold shower. After getting dressed in a pair of new dark jeans and a black long-sleeved shirt, he checked the mirror again. He looked better, in his opinion. Two days of doing nothing drove him into spontaneous online shopping for clothes his size.Still, the smallest shirt he bought was too big for him. Mayb
The Revenger's System 37. Deceit and Infiltration
Late at night, Novaris Pharmaceutical’s building was completely dark, saved for the ground floor where three security were on guard and a lit room on the highest floor. He had ensured that the room upstairs belonged to Jared, who worked overtime as the CEO. Ryan had descended to the first floor of the TeaTop building, ordering pizza and a coffee on the go. He didn’t eat dinner, but it wasn’t for him either. ‘Night Cloak.’ [Night Cloak Lvl 1 activated.] [Time Left: 59 minutes.] As the fast food restaurant was already empty of customers, most of the employees moved to clean the kitchen while a cleaning staff mopped the dining area. With Night Cloak activated, Ryan slipped behind the counter and grabbed a worn, uniformed polo shirt and a red cap with the restaurant’s logo at the front. He put on the stolen items, grimacing at the body odor. As his preparation was done, Ryan walked to the building next to his. He was
The Revenger's System 38. Fighting A Ghost
Getting out of Jared's office was easier than getting in.As Ryan past the security guards, he waved politely and thanked them. They didn't suspect a single thing. He just hoped that Jared doesn't look into the trash can in his private office because he dumped the box of pizza and an empty cup there.Back in the TeaTop building, Ryan browsed his phone for the stolen files, photos, and screenshots of Jared's suspicious chat with the mysterious contact named 'Uncle Frey.' It was a tedious work, but he had no one else to get it done.He fell asleep early morning, staring at the locked file with half-lidded eyes. 'I'll read it tomorrow when I can use Unlock again.'With that in mind, Ryan lay on the previous director's couch and let the dream pull him down.He was woken up by a continuous ringing from his phone. Violet's name is displayed on the screen, urging him to pick up the call. "Yeah?"Violet ranted in his ear, asking him where the hell h
