The rain was still pouring heavily. The Anderson family peeked through the curtains."Susan, we can talk another time. The rain is pouring down now. You could get sick, especially after what happened earlier," Davis said.Susan shook her head, and looked down for a long moment, staring at Davis. "Davis, I'm sorry for not believing what you said about Ethan. I feel so stupid for fooling Ethan with all his made-up stories. I'm also sorry for being so rude to you that night. Even though my family and I treated you so badly, you were still willing to help us. ""Susan," Davis murmured, smiling."If you hadn't helped us, we would have all been destroyed by Ethan's crimes. On behalf of my family, I apologize and thank you."Davis smiled. "Susan, I was just doing something I had to do. After all, I've lived with the Anderson family for fifteen years and consider the Anderson family as my family. I don't want to see the Anderson Family destroyed even though they treated me so badly all these
Davis woke up refreshed. He exercised for an hour around the beach according to the system's orders. As recalled the events of last night, Davis was happy that he managed to put Ethan in jail and avenge the Anderson family's behavior. Still, he also felt heartbroken that Susan rejected him.[Ding][Host successfully completed Daily Quest][Reward of 5 exp + $50,000 sent to your Heir Status and Money Power][Host Name: Davis][Family: Miller][Heir Status: Level 2 (186/200)][Health Point: 20/22][Strength: 13 | Defense: 14 | Intelligence: 15 | Agility: 13][Money Power: $990. 530,000]Davis paused to look at his status on the screen. "There's no main quest for me to do yet. Honestly, I don't know what to do now."Davis entered the house, cleaned up, and changed clothes.[Ding!][Main Quest has been created][Difficulty level: Normal][Quest: Learning Business and Improving Martial Arts Skill][Quest duration: 1 month][Reward: 200 EXP + $2,000,000]"New quest."

Davis observed the woman from a hiding place. She was no different from the other visitors, except that her clothes looked luxurious and classy. "Should I take a picture of her?"[Host is not allowed to photograph, record, or get close][Host should move away immediately]"Okay." Davis took a quick look at the woman, walking towards the escalator.The woman turned to Davis, paused for a moment, then contacted someone.Davis scanned the shops one by one. "I should buy some equipment to practice martial arts. I'll also buy some books for me to study."Davis entered a sporting goods store, selected some equipment, and left the store after paying. He enters a bookstore and buys books on business and martial arts.[You used $50,000 of Money Power to pay for the purchase of sports equipment and martial arts. You have $998,480,000 Money Power left now]Davis checked his cell phone. The meeting had fifteen minutes left. As the man exited the mall doors, he bumped into Susan, Rebecca, and Emel
For three weeks, Davis focused on completing quests as best he could. After his morning workout, he would go to study and train until the afternoon. Davis spent his evenings studying business and practicing martial arts at home.Davis cut down on non-essential activities as he was likely to encounter dangerous man and woman that the system warned him about."You've come a long way from the first time you trained, Mr. Davis," said Sean, Davis' martial arts trainer, "as I said, you have talent and hard work.""You trained me well, Sean. I've come this far because of your guidance." Davis wiped the sweat from his forehead, gulping down his drink."You’ve mastered some basic and intermediate martial arts moves very well in just three weeks. That's quite an accomplishment. In the next week, I will ask you to train on your own, and on the last day you will fight me in this place.""I understand."Davis cleaned up, exiting the building when the sky was already starry. He watched the cars pas
[Sub Quest completion time: 12 minutes 15 seconds]"You won't be able to run away from me anymore, asshole!" cursed Rico with a glare at Davis, "you'll die in this place."Davis observed the punks coming down from the building, surrounding him with the other punks. He had no way to escape. "The punks number thirty. My stamina still hasn't recovered from training with Sean earlier. I don't have to fear getting hurt because I can use Money Power in case of an emergency."Davis observed Rico who was panting. "I see Rico is not in his prime. He must still be injured from the attack from Ethan's colleagues."Davis looked at his ring. "System, can you not tell me when the punks will attack? I want to test the extent of my abilities."[Command accepted][The system will not notify the Host when the punks attack][Be careful, Host]Davis smiled. "Thank you.""What are you doing, asshole?" Rico laughed. "Are you cursing me and my friends before you die?"The punks joined in the laughter. Some

I completed the quest at the last moment." Davis removed the knife from his shoulder, wincing in pain as blood poured out. The man lay in the rain that continued to pour down heavily. He was breathing heavily.Davis slowly sat up, looking around. He saw Rico and the punks still lying on the ground. "I need to treat my wounds and get back home."Davis left Rico and the punks, walking quite slowly due to his injuries. He looked up to the sky, remembering the sudden images of events. "What exactly did I see earlier? I saw flames and strangers fighting. I also saw a baby being carried by a woman.""System, what was sudden ima
Two days later.[Main Quest completion time: 4 days 9 hours][Sub Quest completion time: 4 days 8 hours 40 minutes]Davis pulled the car over near his martial arts training center. He got out of the car in his regular clothes, walking towards the place where he met Dave two days ago.Davis was studying business as scheduled and resting to heal his wounds from the fight with Rico and the punks in the sama time. The mana felt like he was back to full health and ready for a fight."I'm glad you came, man." Dave waved at Davis even though they were still some distance away. "I left you not coming.""I promised you to come." Davis scanned Dave's face. "Why does your face hurt?"Dave touched his eyes and lips. "It's just a small wound. I won't die with just this cut. My father went berserk and used me as a punching bag instead.""Your father tortured you?" asked Davis."Yes," Davis replied casually. "He's been doing it since my brother and I were little. His bad habit continues to this day.
[Main Quest completion time: 4 days 8 hours 45 minutes][Sub Quest completion time: 4 days 8 hours 25 minutes]The audience immediately cheered excitedly. Some of them stood up from their seats, cheering Tonny on. Others started looking for the man named Davis."Are you ready with your bets?" Don asked in a loud voice, "Who are you going to pick? Last year's runner-up or the new loser named Davis?"Davis clucked, trying to calm down.A few girls started going around to each corner with two trays, one with Tonny on it and one with Davis on it. Many audiences deposited their money into the Tonny tray."No one voted for me," Davis said with his hands clenched into tight fists. "That doesn't matter. I just need to prove to them what I'm capable of.""You're up against a very tough opponent, man," Dave whispered, "I don't mean to insult you, but Tony is the strongest man amongst us right now. You're lucky if you can still walk after the fight is over. But, if you manage to win the match, y
