'. I thought my information is hidden.'She closed her eyes and regulated her breathing to calm herself as much as possible. 'So why are those broadcasted?!'Maurice slumped on the room's sofa and massaged her aching forehead. When she had calmed down a bit, she ordered it, 'Take down everything now! I don't want a single photo to remain on earth!'Two or three seconds after she impatiently agreed, it suddenly said, After hearing it, the woman immediately grabbed the armrest of the sofa tightly and screamed to it, 'WHAT?!'However, her system AI was not yet finished, it continued delivering the next bad news.".."".."Half a minute passed after the system very helpfully informed her of these matters. Maurice had still not stopped destroying walls and room decors. Her screams also never stopped terrorizing the hideout. Probably bored or gotten used to this, the carefree people outside started betting which and how many rooms would be destroyed after.The next day, through social med
Time quickly passed. She chatted with them a bit and then parted ways with them. She checked her phone for the time and saw that it was only 4:13 pm. "It's sad but there's still no news on her whereabouts.." she groaned and started walking down the streets.".Will things be different if I chose to go to another city? Though no one has died yet, I still can't shake off the guilt. If I didn't become greedy. if only I chose to leave Alina City, will things still end up this way?"A sneer echoed in her mind.She stopped talking with the system and thought things through. In the end, she also stopped thinking after realizing that there was already no way back. Maurice and she were already enemies. Mortal enemies at that. 'Aside from one-upping and defeating the other in order to live, what's there to think of?'She looked up at the clear skies and bitterly smiled.Four minutes later, she walked out of a large convenience store with an ice cream cone in one hand. It was already late aft
Amanda grimaced at the girl's childish acts. She reckoned by now the opposite party must be sporting an annoyed expression. Who wouldn't be? If the one obstructed without warning was her, she would have raised her voice at the perpetrator, or mimicked her sister and slapped the person until her senses return to her!'What is she doing? And what investigation? Why is she bothering this guy? Don't tell me she has a crush on him? Aiya, I have so many questions but no one can help me answer. I'm sad! I'm so curious!'Amanda felt frustrated and wondered if her sister knew something.Then, her train of thoughts was interrupted by Misty's voice. She looked at them again but was quite surprised when she found the guy turning around and walking to her direction. Instincts made her hide immediately. Thankfully, when the male students arrived at the intersection, he didn't turn to Amanda's direction but walked straight ahead. She breathed a sigh of relief and thanked the heavens for not letting
Agatha remembered the intel she received from Paul last night and sighed. The terrible helplessness she felt that day coming back to her again. Paul told her, a few of their men had encountered the woman this Saturday midnight, with around five mercenaries found dead. She mourned for the five men and once again blamed her weakness which led to this tragedy. 25 people already died. Maybe more. Agatha reflected and realized, if she only was stronger, then Maurice would have been incapacitated or dead by now. There wouldn't be any more unwelcomed deaths. How she hated that she didn't plan more and laid out countermeasures against the woman. There were so many 'what ifs' in her brain and the more unanswered questions surfaced in her mind, the more she blamed herself. Tonight, she went out and strolled the main road of Central Alina. A minute later, she was already marching into a huge residence, the several maids and male servants of the mansion ignored her and acted like they didn't
Similar to the weather on that same morning, the night sky above was as gloomy. It was not raining but there were no stars. The moon was up there. But because of the seemingly endless cluster of clouds drifting to where the source of light was, it was though there was still no moon.But mysteriously, the situation above had no effect on the people below. The city was still as boisterous as ever, like its lights and noise would never die down, or probably it would only do once the world comes to an end.".Wow!""Who is she? She's so pretty!""Yeah. I want to know too. She must be an actress or an heiress!""I think she's most likely a socialite. Look! She's graceful and confident, but not vulgar like most female stars who first climbed many beds before climbing their way to stardom."The subject of everyone's admiration was a very beautiful woman with chest length brown hair. She just walked out of Alina Mall's west exit. People, boys and girls alike, immediately got drawn to her since
A minute after the girl ended the call with a laugh, she also immediately vanished after she recalled what the system asked her. Then as she was positioning herself on the driver's seat and was on the middle of starting the car's engine, she asked the system.'Why are you against it again? You don't want me to join the fray? Oh, why?' she paused for a while and laughed.'When did a system AI like you care about us hosts? We don't know much about the system and AIs' origins but, at least, we know that you folks are heartless and only want to corrupt more people. Each of you is points-grubber. So why do you not want me to join the fun? Aren't you supposed to encourage me because it will mean more points expenditure?'The woman sneered and focused on driving. Evidently, she didn't believe it one bit. She thought, if the system truly doesn't want infighting, it will include this rule to the taboos. But no, it didn't. Thi
Early in the morning, Eithan saw someone dropping an envelope into their mailbox. While rubbing the morning glory off of his eyes, he strode towards it and checked the letter deposited there. His drowsy eyes widened when he saw the name, actually names, written at the back. From: MistyTo: EithanA frown immediately appeared on his face as he stared at the sky blue envelope in his hand. 'Because I blocked her in social media and text messenger, she mailed it?' His face became gloomy. To be honest, he really didn't want any more involvement with her. She was too much of a trouble, even without factoring in her relationship with that two-faced unreasonable host. Even if he took that out of the equation, the system inside his head was also no joke. He had to constantly guard up against it since if he becomes a little bit weak-willed for a few seconds, he'd surely end up becoming a rapist. Given these reasons, who could blame him for badly wanting not to ever get involved with that an
This day Agatha also decided to ditch school and instead go to the shooting range. She had many reasons to do this. First, these days she couldn't help but feel like schooling was already not one of her priorities. This was not influenced by being a rich man's daughter or a magnate's secret lover. With the many threats in her and loved ones' lives she honestly sometimes could not set her mind at ease even if she was at a place meant for learning. Also, even if she goes today, it wouldn't be as fruitful as learning some means of self-defense. Anyway, the only event today there was the announcement of rankings.Secondly, of course, she was angry at the latest mission issued by the system. Or actually, she had been stressed by the missions issued by it. Last time, it wanted her to commit adultery, this time, to stab someone included in her list of people to protect. Really, when given the chance and way to do it, she'd make sure to remove the annoying thing in her head! Third, she wants
