Cultivation with a System in the Modern World An Office Mishap
Danial settled into the plush leather chair, trying to ignore the rising tension in his chest. The room was quiet, save for the soft hum of the computer as it powered up. He grabbed a stack of documents that had been neatly arranged on the desk, flipping through them quickly. At first, it was just an act to keep Sophie from asking too many questions, but as he skimmed the papers, he realized that understanding the company's operations might actually be necessary.After all, this was his company, even if the situation was far from ordinary. He might as well see what kind of business he was supposed to be running.He opened the laptop on the desk and began typing, accessing the company’s internal systems. The screen lit up with a sophisticated dashboard displaying real-time data: sales figures, project timelines, employee performance metrics, and more. Danial clicked through the tabs, noting the company’s strong market presence and the successful completion of several high-profile contr
Cultivation with a System in the Modern World A Deal Interrupted
Luna scratched her head and groaned in irritation, "Why are you all staring at me? And why the hell am I on the floor?"The bodyguards, usually quick with a response, found themselves at a loss for words. They exchanged awkward glances, unsure how to explain the bizarre sequence of events that had just unfolded. The assistant, sensing the growing tension, hurriedly pushed through the cluster of bodyguards and knelt beside Luna, her face etched with concern."Miss Luna, are you okay? Do you feel pain anywhere?" she asked, her voice laced with worry.Luna pushed herself up, still wiping the water from her face. She stood, a picture of annoyed dignity despite the situation, and glared at the assistant. "First of all, what the hell happened? Why was I on the floor, and why am I soaked like I just got caught in a rainstorm?"The assistant hesitated, her mind scrambling to piece together an explanation that wouldn't make her sound insane. She finally managed, "Miss Luna, a decorative panel
Cultivation with a System in the Modern World The Greatest Families of the Capital
Danial leaned back in his chair, listening intently as Liam, now more composed after realizing Danial’s true identity, began to explain."Sir… Chairman," Liam started, still trying to get used to the idea of addressing Danial with such reverence, "Luna Hale is from the Hale Family, one of the Greatest Families in the Capital. They're known for their large-scale manufacturing empire, which includes the biggest and most advanced facilities in the region. We’ve been developing cutting-edge drone technology here at Sterling, and the demand for it has been overwhelming—everyone from corporations to the military has been lining up. Our current manufacturing capacities simply can’t keep up with the scale required. That's why we reached out to the Hales. They have the infrastructure and expertise to handle production at the scale we need, which is why Luna Hale was here today to finalize the deal.”Danial nodded thoughtfully, processing the information. “You mentioned the Greatest Families.

Cultivation with a System in the Modern World The Hidden Network
Danial stood up from his chair, adjusting his suit jacket as he looked at Liam and Letty, who were still standing by the desk. "Alright, I’ll be heading back to my office now. Don’t worry about any formalities. My mother’s in there, and she’s got a sharp eye. If you both come down looking too serious, she’ll get suspicious for sure.Liam nodded quickly. "Of course, sir."Letty gave him a nervous smile, her eyes still wide from earlier. “Yes, Chairman. Understood.”Danial smirked slightly at how different their attitudes were compared to the beginning of the day. He turned and left the chairman’s office, walking through the long corridors with the air of someone who belonged. His confidence had grown, especially after all the information he’d just learned about the Greatest Families. But all of that would need to wait for later.When he reached his office, he opened the door and immediately spotted his mother sitting in his chair, scrolling through her phone lazily. She looked up the m
Cultivation with a System in the Modern World Saber's Gleam
Danial’s heart thumped in his chest as the tension in the room thickened. Sara’s saber gleamed under the fluorescent lights as she pointed it at him, her eyes lit up with excitement."Fight me!" she declared, her voice ringing with anticipation.Danial blinked in shock. “What??” he exclaimed, standing up in disbelief. He had been mentally preparing for a tense briefing, not a duel with a sword-wielding maniac."Why?" Danial continued, shaking his head, still trying to grasp the situation. "I understand that what happened that day was my fault, and I’m ready to apologize, but why do you want to fight me?"Sara chuckled, a gleam of amusement in her eyes. "I never took the incident seriously," she said with a shrug. "I want to fight you because I’ve heard much about you. You stood up against Elysia during the trial fighters, even though she was just toying with you. Then you went ahead and defeated one of the Emsgate representatives in single combat and martial techniques, not to mention
Cultivation with a System in the Modern World Blades and Flames
Sara’s saber began to glow with a golden hum, its light pulsating and radiating power. Danial’s eyes narrowed as he analyzed the situation. The sword had transformed, and something in its aura warned him to be cautious. He took a deep breath, instinctively stepping back as he realized this was no ordinary blade. He could feel the energy crackling around it, vibrating in the air.Sara’s lips curved into a confident smile. She waved her saber in a swift arc, the light from the blade shimmering in the dim underground training hall. "Don't blink, Danial. You’ll miss it," she said, her voice filled with thrilling anticipation.Danial didn’t respond, his focus entirely on the saber in Sara’s hands. In an instant, she leaped toward him, her form a blur of speed. The golden light of her sword gleamed brightly as she slashed downward in a powerful vertical strike.Danial barely managed to dodge, the wind from the blade brushing past him as he dived to the side. He rolled to his feet, glancing b
Cultivation with a System in the Modern World The Mission's Edge
General O'Malley took a deep breath and then addressed the room with a tone of finality. "Now that we know the ‘little things,’ let’s move on to the main topic of this meeting."Danial straightened in his seat, his easygoing demeanor vanishing in an instant. His thoughts raced, and he muttered to himself, "If those were the little things, what on earth are the main things?"O'Malley didn’t miss a beat. He turned and pointed to the screen behind him, where a rough, incomplete layout of the ruins came into focus. Danial and the others leaned forward, studying the details closely. A portion of the ruins, notably the sections leading deeper underground, appeared blurred and distorted, almost as if the scan had hit an invisible wall."This," O'Malley began, gesturing to the map, "is the only possible map we’ve been able to create using ultra-deep scanners. The Arcane Array laid out around the ruins prevents us from directly entering the site or conducting any physical reconnaissance, but w
Cultivation with a System in the Modern World Unwanted Attention
After everyone’s order arrived—ranging from steaks to sandwiches and, of course, a couple of pizzas to settle the “great debate”—the group started to dig in. The lively chatter at the table carried on with everyone throwing in jokes and stories between mouthfuls of food. However, Maria, mid-bite of her sandwich, froze when her eyes landed on the restaurant’s door.Standing there, like a silent shadow, was Sara, watching Danial with a look of intense seriousness, her arms crossed, and an unreadable expression on her face.Maria blinked and thought, What the hell is Sara doing here? She racked her brain, remembering that Sara was supposed to be in the middle of training with Gareth for the upcoming Ancient Ruins mission. She shot a glance at Danial, wondering if he knew.Curiosity sparked, Maria cleared her throat and asked, “Danial, what have you been doing this week?”Danial blinked, momentarily caught off guard. He thought for a second, clearly trying to come up with something casual.
