"Good afternoon, sir. My name is Amanda Steele, I'm the secretary of Platinum industries. I heard you just bought the company and you're now the new owner. I'm only calling to ask if there's any way I can assist you." A feminine voice sounded over the phone.

"Ah, yes, that's true. I took over the company not quite long. I'm surprised the workers have already heard about it." Zed remarked.

"Well, news travels fast around here. I can't wait to work under you, sir." Amanda replied. "Is there anything you'd like me to help you with, sir?" She asked.

"Well, since I'm new I'd like to see what the company is currently working on. The ongoing projects, how the company's profit and balance is looking, and also the names of all workers. I'd like to be familiar with the people I'm working with." Zed demanded.

"Right away, sir. I'll send you a soft copy of the project we are currently working on. We are kind of stuck at that project... that's the main reason why the company was sold. I'll also s

    Zed clicked on the email and the design of what the company has been working on for the test appeared on his screen. It was the design of a car. The image showed the ideas for the car and how they could make it happen, and it also showed their failures and the part they are currently stuck at."They are trying to create a car that's faster than the current fastest car in the world. Hmm.. that sounds interesting I'm not gonna lie." Zed mused as he examined the image closely. "The current fastest car travels at 1,228 kilometers per hour, and this car they are planning on creating would be reaching 2,000Km/h."Zed pondered while glancing at the design on the screen. As he studied it he suddenly realized the reason for their constant failures."Ah, I see why there hasn't been any progress and why they've been unable to surpass 1,228Km/h." Zed's eyes widened slightly. "The first reason is the Engine, second is the Stability and control, and the last reason is the weight of the car." Zed s

    "Who the hell are you and where do you think you are going with that trash?" Richard questioned, his right arm resting on Zed's shoulder, and his gaze filled with disdain.Hearing the words of Richard, Zed let out a sigh before turning around to face."What sort of question is that? Isn't this a restaurant? And what does a person do in a restaurant?" Zed questioned."Yeah, I understand you're going inside to eat, but not with this trash. She's not stepping foot inside." Richard spat, glaring at the lady beside Zed with looks of disgust."And are you the security or owner?" Zed asked. "If you're not the owner or manager then I see no reason for you to give out orders." He added."I'm not the manager or security, but I am a VIP customer, and when I say something it must be done!" Richard voiced out, pulling out a silver card from his pocket and showing it to Zed.As Zed glanced at the card, a system notification popped up in front of him.[A compulsory quest has arrived][Quest informat

    Noise erupted in the restaurant after Zed paid the bill as everyone began to cheer and hail him. Some even approached him and bowed their heads in front of him to appreciate what he had done. They've all been dreaming of getting a taste of the most expensive wine in the restaurant, but most of them couldn't afford it. Only the VVIps could afford such a wine.And right now Zed just made their dream a reality.Richard, on the other hand, stood there by the entrance. His blood boiling in anger as he watched everyone praise Zed like he was a god.As that was happening, a beautiful young lady in white suit and short white skirt that revealed her laps, walked towards Zed. She halted her steps in front of him and stretched forth a card towards him.The card resembled the one Richard showed him outside. The only difference was that the one Richard had was silver, while the one in the lady's hand was gold."Sir, if you don't mind we'll like to make you one of our VVIP customer." Luke stated.

    Stepping into the office, Zed caught sight of the CEO already waiting for him. He was a striking young man in a navy blue suit and black tie. His sporting black hair was neatly combed, and he also wore glasses.His name was Mr. Travis. The CEO of the Diamond Crystal industries."Welcome, Mr. Zed. You're the new CEO of Platinum industries, right? I've been expecting you. Please, have a seat." Travis bellowed, pointing towards a vacant chair opposite his desk."You already know I bought the company?" Zed asked with a slight look of puzzle as he sat down."Well, I keep track of my rivals. Especially those who owe me money." Travis stated. "I'm sure you know about the loan, Mr. Zimmerman.""Yes, I do. Why else would I be here?" Zed replied, his expression indifferent as he placed the bag of cash on the table in front of him.Travis pulled the bag closer and glanced inside. Inside the bag were bundles of cash."That's the amount my company owes you. $3,500,000..all in that bag." Zed inform

    Amanda nodded before leading him to the production facility. They walked down the hallway for a few moments before stepping into an elevator. The elevator took them downwards and they arrived underground. Ding*A soft chiming sound echoed as the elevator's door slid open and they both stepped outside. The area they arrived in was vast, and several scraps and metals could be seen lying around here and there. Several cars could also be seen, and different workers in blue jumpsuits were working on the cars.As Zed advanced forward, the workers paused what they were doing and shifted their gazes towards him. They all bowed slightly and greeted as he walked forward. Zed finally came to a halt, and a young worker with short blonde hair, clad in the blue jumpsuit, approached him."Good afternoon, boss." The man greeted respectfully. "I'm Matt.. and I'm the top engineer down here." Matt introduced."I see." Zed nodded. "I heard you guys are trying to build a car that would surpass the speed

    Zed rode back to his new apartment after exiting the company. He drove through the street for several minutes until he finally pulled over in front of the apartment. He pushed the door open and stepped outside before making his way inside.Stepping into the apartment, Zed glanced around. This place brought back so many memories. Both good and bad memories. This was the apartment he lived in when he lost everything to the eclipse industries. It was also the apartment where he got the wealth system. "Didn't realize I'd miss this place." He mused while glancing around. He stood there for a few moments before heading to his room to get his clothes and other things he bought from the mall that night. After packing everything Zed made his way out of the apartment. He placed the bag in the backseat of his car and stepped into the driver's seat. He started the engine and drove to his mansion.Zed threw himself on the couch after arriving in the living room. He sighed heavily as he glanced a

    "You..you.. you are going to make a transfer of $10,000,000 right now?" Miranda stuttered in disbelief."That's impossible!" Leo spat."I wouldn't have said it if I wasn't serious." Zed replied as he pulled out his phone and clicked on his banking app.Miranda stood there in silence for a few moments before muttering."All right then. Let's watch 'Zed Zimmerman' transfer $10,000,000." She chuckled softly before giving him the account details of the company.After receiving the account details Zed completed the transfer in less than a minute and he showed her the receipt on his phone. Both Leo and Miranda glanced at the receipt with looks of disbelief evident on their faces."Done. You can call your boss for configuration if you want.. I'm not going anywhere, I'm just gonna to enjoy the party." Zed winked before walking away, leaving the duo stunned by what happened. "It could be a trick or something. There's no way he transferred $10,000,000 like it was nothing at all." Leo mumbled.

    Before Nick Campbell could finish his sentence, a masculine voice reverberated throughout the place."$20,000,000." Zed spoke up audibly.Hearing the words of Zed, every single person turned their heads towards his direction to see just who had said those words. However, when they caught sight of him a look of disappointment appeared on their faces."Zed Zimmerman? I never thought I'd see you in a place like this. Who even let you in?" Nick Campbell spoke up after spotting Zed."Do you know this man, Mr. Campbell?" Smith inquired, his gaze fixed intently on Zed."Oh, yes I do. He was a top engineer in the eclipse industries, now he's nothing but a trash." Nick Campbell responded."If he's a trash then why is he speaking during the auction? He shouldn't interrupt us!" Smith spat, his tone laced with anger."I apologize on his behalf, sir. I'll make sure the trash leaves." Nick stated before shifting his gaze back to Zed. "As you can see, Zimmerman, this is a gathering for wealthy folk

    "Is there any way I can help?" Mia inquired, her voice carrying a mix of curiosity and apprehension.Mr. Damien sipped his whiskey, exhaled deeply, and then leaned back against the couch. His expression was grim, his eyes distant as he formulated his response."Like I said earlier, if Zed succeeds, the Campbell family will become useless to us. We are already losing," he muttered, swirling the golden liquid in his glass. "And the only way to stop losing… is to join the winning team."Mia frowned, tilting her head slightly. "What are you talking about?" she asked, a puzzled expression crossing her delicate features.Mr. Damien leaned forward, resting his elbows on his knees. His gaze locked onto hers, cold and calculating. "If you can manage to win Zed’s heart back and marry him… our families will be connected. We will become one." He paused, allowing the weight of his words to settle before continuing, "And when we are one, we will enjoy all the benefits he gets from the government af

    Mr. Damien sat down on the couch beside her. He exhaled sharply before leaning forward, picking up a glass of whiskey. He moved the glass closer to his lips and took a sip."I couldn't sleep," he muttered, taking another sip."Why not?" Mia lowered her phone and asked, a slight look of puzzlement crossing her face."How can I sleep when my only chance of winning the test has been stolen from me?" Mr. Damien stated, grabbing the bottle and pouring more whiskey into his glass."You're talking about the auction earlier? The rocket engine that was bought by Zed Zimmerman?" Mia inquired, raising an eyebrow."Yes. That rocket engine was my only hope of winning. And now, it’s gone. And on top of it all, it was bought by the same man I threw out like trash." Mr. Damien’s grip on the glass tightened slightly as he spoke. "If it had been a CEO from a different company who bought it, getting it back wouldn’t have been too difficult. But it’s Zed—the same man we betrayed."He let out a deep sigh

    [However, if you wish to level it up quickly, you will need to engage in as many fights as possible. The more combat you experience, the more chances you will have to level up your martial arts skills.] Zed let out a heavy sigh, rubbing his forehead in frustration. The system had made it clear—there was no easy way out. If he wanted to improve his skills, he would have to constantly put himself in harm’s way. But perhaps that was the price to pay for not wanting to be helpless in a world like this. His eyes remained locked on the new skill for a few more moments before shifting his gaze toward the rest of his rewards. "$50,000,000 or a Golden Card." Zed mused, his gaze flickering between the two options displayed on the screen. "I already have quite a bit of money from the lottery, so I'll just go for the Golden Card as usual." Without hesitation, he made his choice. [Host has chosen the Golden Card!] A notification flashed before him, followed by the sudden appearance of a go

    "You are making a mistake! I didn't do anything! I've been here all day! You can ask the people here!" Mr. Routledge spat, his face flushed with rage, his voice rising in anger. "Well, you don't really need to leave this place to commit a crime. You could easily make a call and hire people to do your dirty work for you," Chief Beckett remarked, his tone firm and unyielding. He lowered his pistol and tucked it back into his belt. "Take him outside," he ordered, and his men immediately began dragging the struggling man toward the door. "No, you can't do this! You can't! I didn’t do anything!" Mr. Routledge continued to protest, his voice growing desperate as he was hauled away. "You're making a huge mistake! You don't know who I am! You don’t know how many powerful friends I have! You will regret this!" His voice echoed down the hall as the officers forced him outside. Once outside, they shoved him into the back of the patrol car, slamming the door shut with a metallic clang. The of

  • The mastermind

    "I don't know his name, but he's the owner of the first casino you'll see in that area," Zed informed, his right hand gesturing toward the direction he had just come from.Chief Beckett narrowed his eyes slightly, taking in the information. "I see. And what makes you suspect him? Did they say anything to you?""Not exactly," Zed replied, his voice edged with suspicion. "But it's too much of a coincidence that he insisted on giving me my winnings in cash. I mean, we're talking about a huge sum—he could've just transferred it to my bank, but he outright refused. Then, not even a few minutes after I left the casino, I got attacked. And guess what? They were after the same briefcase I got from the casino."Chief Beckett considered this for a moment before pulling out a small notepad and pen. He jotted down Zed’s statement, along with the address of the casino."We'll look into this, sir," he stated firmly, tucking the notepad away. "You should go to the hospital for treatment.""Don't wor

  • Help arrives

    Zed staggered backward as one of the thugs viciously kicked the briefcase from his grasp. His feet scrambled against the rough pavement as he fought to maintain his balance, finally coming to a halt a few paces away from them."Do I even stand a chance against these men?" The thought flickered through his mind as his pulse pounded in his ears. His gaze locked onto the thugs as they surged forward, their daggers gripped tightly in their hands. The dim streetlights cast eerie glints off the cold steel, making the weapons look even deadlier.As they reached striking distance, their blades slashed through the air in unison, aiming to carve into him. Zed barely reacted in time, leaping backward just as the daggers whooshed past, cutting nothing but empty space. He exhaled sharply, but before he could regain his footing, one of the thugs lunged forward, his fist swinging toward Zed’s face.Instinct took over. Zed sidestepped at the last second, narrowly avoiding the blow. The attacker’s mom

    [A compulsory quest has arrived] [Return back home with the money you won. If you fail and they end up taking it away from you.. you shall be punished severely] [Reward: Hidden] [Punishment: Hidden]Zed glanced at the system's notification with widened eyes. His heart thundered in his chest, and cold sweat trickled down his face. His back was currently facing the thugs, so they couldn't see the tensed expression on his face. "What the hell?" He mused. "Is this system trying to get me killed or what? How on heart do I prevent them from stealing the briefcase?" [You fight with your hands and your legs] The system responded mockingly. "Very helpful." Zed said, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "How do I even fight them? I have never for once attended a boxing class or stepped foot into a karate dojo. So how am I supposed to fight?" The system remained silent, and Zed frowned. "Hey, man, why are you just standing there? Go get the briefcase!" One of the thugs voiced out, causing

  • Thieves in the night

    All heads turned to Zed as the middle-aged man walked towards him. Zed just stood there calmly with his hands casually tucked in his pockets, and his gaze fixed on the man approaching him.The man finally came to a halt directly in front of him. He glared at him for a few moments before shifting his gaze towards the computer screen where the notification could still be seen.He glanced at the computer's screen for a few moments before shifting his gaze back to Zed. He cleared his throat before speaking, "Congratulations on your win, sir." He said as he shook Zed's hand. "I'll be back shortly with your money." He added before walking away.Shortly after the middle-aged man left, a crowd of people swiftly surrounded Zed. They all begged him to tell them the lucky numbers he used to win so they could copy him and also win. Zed assured them that the same numbers might not work twice in a row, but he decided to tell them nevertheless. Who knows if they'll be lucky.A few moments later, th

  • Won a lottery: $8,000,000

    Zed sat there in his living room for several minutes, scrolling through his phone to make sure he gets all the latest news and information concerning the engineering companies.After waiting for a few more minutes he heard a knock on his door. He placed the phone on the sofa, rose to his feet, and walked towards the door.He pulled the door open and the first thing he saw was a young woman around his age. She had long black hair, and she was clad in a simple long gown that swept the floor. Even though the gown she wore was super big and long, one could still notice her alluring body figure. She had the type of body that would make every man lust over.Zed glanced at her for a few moments before speaking up, "Uhm.. you must be the woman I spoke with earlier.""Yes, sir. I'm Kimberly. The one you hired." Kimberly introduced with a slight bow."I see." Zed nodded. "Come on in." He gestured, and she walked into the luxurious living room.Stepping inside, she glanced around with her mout
