Not immediately getting a reply from the System, Damian waited anxiously, he didn't know if the System would help him avenge the person who tried to harm him that time.
[That's why the System chose the Host, the System's existence here is to help the Host realise the revenge the Host wants]
If Damian thought about it, it actually made sense, he had already realised it from the beginning when he heard the name of this System, but he asked this just to be sure. It would be dangerous if this System's purpose was not in line with what Damian was aiming for.
"Thanks goodness. I hope you can help me realise what I want," Damian replied then nodded his head calmly, that way he no longer felt worried about the existence of this System.
[Then the Host should accept Wendy's offer since the Host would have to hide its identity from now on]
"You're right, I will agree to that woman's offer. It's just that I still don't know which family she comes from, I don't know if her family will jeopardise my identity." Damian was quite worried about this matter, all he knew of Wendy at the moment was limited to her first name.
In fact, Damian did not know anything about Wendy, it seemed that he had to force Wendy to explain everything to him first before signing a contract with her. Damian really didn't want to experience bad events like before again, it was enough that he felt like dying once.
[System will help gather the information the Host needs. The Host can check it when the target is in front of the Host]
Although surprised by what the System could do, Damian just kept quiet and accepted what the System gave him. As long as it was beneficial to him Damian would make good use of the System.
Soon someone who seemed to be Wendy's messenger brought him food and also the medicine he had to take. After finishing what he had to do at this time Damian decided to rest himself, whose condition was not yet stable.
. . .
The next day Damian woke up and was immediately surprised by what was in front of him at this time. Across his bed sat Wendy who was smiling at him, Damian couldn't help but move backwards as soon as he opened his eyes today.
"Can't you wait patiently?!" Damian cleared his throat softly, then corrected his posture.
"I can't wait for your answer. So, what did you think of my previous offer?" asked Wendy then, in front of Damian she had to hide the fact that she was very anxious right now because she had very little time left.
"Before that I have a condition for you," Damian replied then, before he utilised the features of the System, he wanted to test Wendy first as to whether she could trust him.
If Damian decided to cooperate with Wendy, then he had to know first whether Wendy could be trusted. If not then Damian only thought of rejecting her and looking for another working partner.
"Just say it, I'll listen," Wendy replied quickly, she wouldn't mind granting Damian's small request if he could get her as his partner.
"Is that so? Then I won't hesitate." Although Damian's voice sounded calm, it could be seen that he was grinning happily at the moment.
"You know that trust between partners is a must. So, I want you to explain to me why you are making this offer to me," Damian said, then continued, "the real reason, not the clichéd one you gave me earlier."
Wendy's previously smiling face immediately disappeared from her beautiful face, she did not expect Damian to ask for something like this, she thought he wanted money from her. As Wendy suspected Damian was not an ordinary person, there was no way an ordinary person would ask for something like this.
Wendy, who saw Damian's serious face, thought that she could not avoid giving this explanation to him. With a sigh Wendy finally opened her voice after a few moments of silence, "Okay, I'll tell you."
"I will introduce myself properly this time. I am Wendy Clayton, the youngest daughter of the Clayton Family." Wendy finally had to tell the truth about her identity which she had not told Damian before.
Damian was silently surprised by Wendy's words at this time, he honestly did not expect that Wendy was someone from the Clayton family. Actually, Damian was quite familiar with the Clayton family because one of their families worked together with Damian's Estrado Family.
As a mafia family, Damian and his men often did dirty work for people with power and money. However, Damian had never met the youngest daughter of the Clayton family before.
"I didn't expect to meet one of the Clayton family members. So you need me to help you fight your family?" Damian was already beginning to guess what Wendy really wanted from him.
"You could say that. I need your help so that my family doesn't bother me anymore, don't worry I won't interfere with your activities," Wendy replied with a soft sigh.
"But, you know I'm just from an ordinary family. So I can't provide much help for you." Damian immediately said that with his current self he could not provide much help for Wendy.
"Don't worry. I only need you, you don't need to help me." Wendy smiled calmly, she didn't expect Damian to help her, right now she just needed someone who could hold her family back from doing something to her.
"Alright then, I'll take you up on your offer." Damian nodded his head, by now he had also seen the information that the System had given him about Wendy and he had not lied to him at all.
"I'm glad you're willing to accept my offer, here's the contract I've drawn up, take a look at it and tell me if there's anything you want to change." Wendy handed him an envelope containing their marriage contract.
After receiving the contract from Wendy, Damian immediately carefully read the contents of the contract and he did not object to the contents. "Give me the pen," Damian said briefly while holding out his hand to Wendy.
Wendy immediately gave Damian a pen, very happy to see Damian immediately sign their contract.
"I already signed it. When are we leaving here?" Damian felt that his body was much better now, he wanted to find out the current situation of his mafia group.
"If you don't mind, we can go to my family's house tonight." Wendy didn't mind going right now, but she had to tell Damian about their future relationship scenario.
When the time came Damian was finally able to step out of the room he had been in for the past two days. As Wendy had said before, tonight they would return to the Clayton family home to introduce Damian as Wendy's husband. Then Damian was directed to a car that he believed belonged to Wendy, without waiting long he got into the car and was immediately greeted with a small box that was thrown at him. Damian frowned and glanced at Wendy in confusion, "What is this, Wendy?" asked Damian not understanding what Wendy meant by giving him a small box. Out of curiosity Damian opened the small box and he was even more confused when he saw a ring in there. "Are you stupid? Of course we have to be seen wearing rings, do you want to be caught cheating on my family?" Wendy rolled her eyes lazily. Then Damian just nodded his head without thinking about it anymore, if he didn't want to get caught then he had to do this. Damian had to focus on organising his plan for revenge. The first t
Instantly Damian's body froze, honestly he had never been treated this humiliated by others, it seemed he had to feel this kind of humiliation to increase his motivation to avenge himself on the person who had ruined his life. "Mom, what are you doing?!" Wendy got up from her position while pounding on the dining table, she could not understand what her stepmother had done. Damian also held Wendy's hand while shaking his head, "It's okay, I'm sure your family will be surprised by my arrival," Damian said while quietly glancing around. Damian could see that no one objected to what Wendy's stepmother had done to him, in fact it seemed like they were happy with the way she treated him. Damian could only sigh softly, not expecting this family to be kind to him in the future. "You go back to your room Wendy and take your husband away. His presence only brings a bad atmosphere." This time Wendy's father also spoke up and waved his hand to drive the two of them out of his way. Seein
George got up from his position angrily, it was obvious from his face that he was furious with what Damian had done to him. With quick steps George walked towards Damian and without saying anything George immediately kicked Damian's shin causing him to fall to the floor. Not only that, George started kicking Damian's stomach who had fallen down, "Feel that shit! How dare you dirty my clothes, useless people like you are better off dead!" roared George angrily while continuing to kick Damian who could only protect himself. "A bastard like you deserves it," said Sarah - George's younger sister - laughing happily as she watched George beat the helpless Damian on the floor. "It's still early, but you're making me angry. Don't you want to come with me to finish this bastard off, Sarah?!" George stepped on the side of Damian's face this time with a creepy grin on his face. "You better cut the noise, George. You'll be in trouble if Wendy sees what you're doing to her," Sarah said, cho
To get to the Black Market Damian had to climb down what seemed like endless stairs and the surroundings were very dark with the only illumination coming from the candles hanging on the walls. In the distance Damian saw a conscious light and that's when he realised he had arrived. Behind the thin black curtain that separated the area Damian could see that the Black Market was quite crowded this time. Since Damian already had his destination in mind, he walked leisurely towards the west. Damian tightened the hood of the hoodie he was wearing, he didn't want anyone to recognize him here. Although Damian rarely came to the Black Market before, still he had done a lot of business with people who often came here. "I hope that person won't reject my presence," Damian murmured, feeling quite worried because he came here without telling his friend. However, no matter how much Damian worried it wouldn't help because he had to see for himself what would happen later when he met his frie
Although still confused by the information Roderick had provided earlier, Damian was quite satisfied with the information he had gotten this time and he also found a way to contact Roderick without having to come back here. After finishing his business with Roderick, Damian immediately left the Black Market, because he didn't want people to be suspicious of him if he hung around there any longer. After all, Damian realised that he had talked with Roderick for too long and now that it was late afternoon, he had to return to Wendy. Although Wendy didn't require Damian to return at what time, he still knew to do his job well. Although Damian used to be known for his bad behaviour, at least he was a responsible man, so he had to come back now. After changing his clothes back into his neat suit, Damian returned to Wendy's private luxury boutique. When Damian arrived in front of Wendy's boutique, he immediately stepped inside but his steps were immediately stopped by someone. Damian
As Wendy had said yesterday, Damian had to be prepared because the Clayton family wanted to throw a banquet party for his wedding with Wendy. And Damian believed that the Clayton family intended to embarrass him at the party. Damian didn't want that to happen because it would make his position difficult in the Clayton family. "System, can you help me?" Damian asked his system. [Indeed, what does the Host need right now?] "I can't be humiliated at the party. Can you do something for me?" Damian hoped that the system would give him something. Right now since Damian was completely down and he didn't have the wealth he had before, he desperately needed money right now. [Actually, the System did not want to give the Host a mission yet. But, if the Host really wanted to make money, the System could give the Host a mission] "Sure, I'll do it!" Damian was determined to make money this time. Ding! [Mission has appeared! Prevent yourself from being humiliated today (0/3) Doing good to
It just so happened that today Wendy did not go to her boutique and she intended to go around to choose materials that would be stocked in her boutique. Therefore Wendy asked Damian to go with her and not bring many people with them. "So where are you going?" asked Damian, not expecting Wendy not to go to her company. "Can we go to the economic district in the city centre? There's a shop I often attend to," replied Wendy happily, finally able to release some of her stress. "Okay." Damian nodded his head. Then, Damian opened the door for Wendy, after which he turned around and got into the car. With that, Damian drove the car to the place Wendy told him about. It could be said that this was the first time they went out together after Damian entered the Clayton family. . . . Unlike what Damian thought, the place Wendy was going to was very luxurious and he just knew there was a place like this. It was understandable that Damian was not too interested in anything other t
Seeing the suspicious gesture, Damian immediately restrained the man's hand that intended to hit the middle-aged woman. The rude man gave Damian a sharp look, not expecting Damian to actually interfere with his problems with the middle-aged woman. "Damn bastard! How dare you bother me!" The man glared at Damian, completely pissed off at this point. "Look who's the bastard here." Damian rolled his eyes lazily at the man's words. Before throwing the man's hand Damian gripped it firmly making the man groan in pain, only after hearing that did he throw the man's hand. \ The man fell to the ground miserably, he intended to reply to Damian but was immediately silenced when he saw the look Damian gave him. "Go away, or do you want to feel my punch?" Damian glanced at the man from the tail of his eyes while grinning. Having already sensed Damian's strength, the man let out an annoyed chuckle, then quickly ran away from there. Damian finally let out a sigh of relief when he saw
