2025-02-10 05:48:54Zed made his way back to his workshop to keep the items he had just bought and also clean up the place. Zed cleaned up the whole place, and in a few hours time the whole workshop was now sparkling clean.
After cleaning it up he decided to leave and return tomorrow. There were a lot of things he had in his mind now that he just received a huge amount of money, and the first thing on that list was to change his wardrobe just like he does whenever he gets paid. As Zed walked toward the shopping mall, he couldn't help but ask the system all the questions that were bothering. "What exactly are you?" Zed asked. [I am the Wealth and Fame building system, and I am here to help you become the number one in the whole universe] "Yeah, you told me that before. But what exactly are you? Who created you or why were you granted to me?" Zed asked, but the system remained mute, not wanting to disclose such information. [There are a lot you are yet to see, host. All you have to do is call out the System's interface and it shall be reviewed] The system's voice sounded in his head. "Ah, so there are other things I'm yet to see." Zed mused, his fingers rubbing his chin as he walked down the bustling street. "System interface!" He said internally. The screen in front of him vanished, and a whole new one appeared. [Name: Zed Zimmerman] [Level: 1] [Amount left to spend to move to the next level: $10,000,000] [Shop] [Daily quests] [Lottery] [Talent] [Gamble] Zed examined the screen while walking through the street. "Hmm.. interesting." He intoned. "It's like a game. Wait, do I need to spend the whole ten million in order to move to the next level?" Zed asked. [Yes! Host is required to spend lavishly in order to move to the next level. When I say lavishly I mean spend the whole $10,000,000 that was given to you after completing the quest. Note, the money you spend from winning the lottery or winning a gamble won't be added to the $10,000,000 that you are asked to spend.] "Ah, I see. This is insane. I have to keep spending money to keep earning money. Doesn't sound bad to me." Zed grinned before lowering his gaze to examine the rest of the screen. While glancing at it he noticed some of the things that were displayed were greyed out. "These ones that are grey, does it mean it's not available?" Zed asked. [Yes, because you are a level one you don't have access to the Shop, lottery, Talent, and Gamble.] The system replied, and Zed couldn't help but frown. He chose to dismiss the screen and check the rest out when he was back home. Zed finally arrived at the grand shopping mall, and he swiftly made his way inside. The mall was the biggest shopping mall in the whole of Sunderland, and it was a place where affluent families came to buy their goods. The place was filled with rich men and women who were walking around here and there with his their families. Zed was able to blend in because he was neatly dressed, and the outfit he wore wasn't bad at all. Zed made his way to the second floor where designer clothes were sold. He wasted no time as he began to select as many as possible. Afternoon selecting clothes, he went to the shoes section and took several sneakers and other types of expensive shoes. As Zed was busy selecting lots of items, the people around couldn't help but notice, and they all glanced at him in bewilderment. Zed ignored their stares as he continued with his shopping. As Zed was busy selecting some limited edition Rolex, he heard a familiar voice from behind.. "What on earth are you doing here?" It was a soft feminine voice which Zed recognized instantly. He then turned around and saw his Ex-girlfriend, Mia, and two of her friends, Carol and Juliet. "What do you mean?" Zed asked, his face devoid of emotion as he glanced at Mia. "You heard me right, Zed. What the hell are you doing in a place like this?" Mia asked. "What does it look like? I came here to shop. You got a problem with that?" Zed replied firmly. Hearing the word of Zed, Mia bursted out in laughter, and her friend chimed in with laughter. "You? Shop in a place like this? Don't make me laugh, Zed." Mia choked out after hanging a good laugh. "What's the problem?" Zed asked with an expressionless look on his face. "We all know your whole life was dependent on her father's company. Every single thing you own was provided by the Eclipse industries, and now that you have been fired you are nothing but worthless trash." Carol, one of Mia's friends, spat. "Oh, is that what you think?" Zed asked. "Stop pretending and just admit it, Zed." Mia voiced out. "Admit what?" Zed inquired. "You are stalking me. That's it.. because what will a trash like you be doing in an expensive mall like this one and also at this exact time? You are a stalker, Zed." Mia retorted. "I'm sorry, what?" The words of Mia took him off guard. "Drop the act, Zed. You know what? I've heard enough. I can't deal with creepy stalkers like you. I'm calling the security." She remarked. "If you call the security, I won't be the one who'll be thrown out. It will be you, Mia." Zed stated. Mia paid no attention to him as she kept calling the security, and in less than a minute two bulky men in uniform arrived at their location. "What's the matter, Miss?" One of the security men asked. "Please, you guys should do something. This trash here has been following me. He is a stalker and a pervert." Mia spat, and the two security men shifted their gazes towards Zed.

The expression on his face was unreadable as he glanced at them.One of the security men walked towards Zed, his hulking figure dwarfing him instantly."Sir, I'm sorry but you have to leave now." The guard stated firmly."And why should I leave? I thought this mall was open to everyone?" Zed asked calmly, his gaze never leaving Mia."You're not a customer here, Zed, you're only a creepy stalker. You say you are not stalking me and you're only here to shop...tell me, how would a trash like you afford the goods that are sold here?!" Carol spat, her tone filled with disdain as she glared at Zed."She's right. You already lost your job in my father's company.

Jessica introduced politely."Zed Zimmerman." Zed replied."I heard you are also interested in this shopping mall, and you're willing to double whatever amount I offer, right?" Jessica stated."That is correct." Zed affirmed."Why? Why are you so interested in this... small mall that is in the middle of nowhere?" She asked."Why are you also interested in it?" Zed responded with a question."Oh, I want nothing to do with the mall. I also need the land because it is in a deserted area like this." Jessica bellowed."The land? You mean you plan on demolishing the mall when you purchase it?" Zed inquired."Yeah." Jessica nodded."I see. So that's why you also increased the rent. You know they would be unable to

She stood there as she watched him leave."He....just said my name. How does he know my name?" She mused.Elena doesn't remember introducing herself to Zed, she also didn't see the previous landlord mentioning her name to him. But for some reason he knows it."What a strange fella." She intoned, and a few seconds later she turned around and walked back into the mall to attend to the customers who were already waiting.After Zed exited the shopping mall he made his way towards the biggest car dealership in the whole of the city.

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

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

"I asked you a question, didn't I?" Santiago spat.Lucas swallowed hard before responding, "The estimated amount that went missing is $1,000,000,000."Hearing the words of Lucas, the eyes of Santiago and his men in the living room widened in shock. The room fell silent after as Santiago just stood there, processing what he just heard, while Lucas knelt down there shaking with his head bowed down."This is a joke, right? Tell me it's a joke, Lucas. Tell me it's a fucking joke!" Santiago voiced out in anger, causing each and everyone in the room to flinch."I wish it was a joke, sir. But I'm afraid it isn't." Lucas muttered shakily.Santiago stretched forth both of his hands and grabbed his collar before yanking him up to his feet."How the hell did this happen??" Santiago demanded, his voice filled with anger, and his eyes locked on Lucas."I..I have no idea, sir. It was done by a highly skilled hacker. He hacked into the system and withdrew the money. I didn't know how he managed to
Missing funds
"I don't think trades like that makes someone a multimillionaire suddenly." Nick Campbell interjected."Let's just worry about that later. Now we have a big problem at hand. We stole from Zed and chased him away.. he hates us, and now he's our biggest rival. A man as skilled as Zed will definitely build a perfect vehicle with that engine and he will easily get chosen by the US government, while my company would become a laughingstock. I can't let that happen." Mr. Damien mumbled with looks of contemplation."So what are you suggesting, sir? I'm willing to do anything for you." Nick asked."I don't know yet. But I'm sure I'll come up with something." Mr. Damien stated, and Nick Campbell nodded.'"""Somewhere else in the city.A luxurious mansion could be seen standing tall in a deserted area in the city.

Mr. Damien could be seen sitting on a couch with a glass of wine in his right hand. Standing opposite him was Nick Campbell."What do you mean you lost the rocket engine, Nick?" Mr. Damien asked, his face bright red in anger as he glared at Nick.Nick Campbell swallowed hard after hearing the words of Mr. Damien, and cold sweat trickled down his face."I was supposed to offer a total of $15,000,000 during the auction just like we talked about, and no one else would be able to offer such an amount and the rocket engine would automatically become ours. But things didn't go exactly as planned, sir. Somebody kept going until I didn't have enough money to keep going." Nick Campbell muttered shakily, and his gaze glued to the floor."What do you mean you don't have enough money to keep going? You should have called me and told me about this..I would have sent you extra $5,000,000 or $10,000,000.. I'm sure that would have shut the person up." Mr. Damien voiced out in anger."You don't unders
Highest bidder
Nick Campbell stood there in silence with his gaze glued to the floor, and his two fists clenched. The beads of sweat on his face were now dropping to the floor, and his suit was also drenched in sweat. If someone should glance at him they would assume he was pulled out of a pool.Even though Nick couldn't see them, he could tell they were all staring at him. Every single one of them.Everyone in the building was expecting him to win because he was representing the Eclipse industries, and Nick was also from a wealthy family. It would be a shame for him to lose to a nobody like Zed Zimmerman.'Mr. Damien trusted me, that's why he asked me to represent him here today. He would be very disappointed in me if he finds out someone else got the engine. And not just anyone.. but Zed.' Nick Campbell pondered internally with his head bowed down, and his sweat falling to the ground.Mr. Damien gave him a total of $15,000,000 to participate in the auctioning program because he knew no one would
Prove yourself first
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
Auctioning
"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.
