Not even a second passed and another notification echoed.* 20 people x 2,500 divided by 2 Total: 25,000 Pleasure PointsSadly points are only high this time because they're subordinates controlled by a host! But well, you should not ask for more! At least you get a reward! Hahahaha! Hey, host! Come, donate some of it to me! You made me expend some brainpower for the calculation! Agatha naturally ignored its nonsense.The moment she read the number of points given, she didn't dilly-dally anymore and immediately purchased two anti-mind control rings. She impatiently slipped one on Misty's finger, the other she planned to gift to Amanda. After this, Agatha hailed another cab and told the driver to take them to Misty's house. Unlike the first cab driver, the driver this time uses mobile banking. When he learned that Agatha currently had no cash with her, he agreed to have the payment be wired over. Five minutes later, the taxi dropped them off in front of a two-story house.Before pa
'. 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
When the troops of the God’s Domain stepped onto the Imperial Capital’s soil, the common folks on both sides of the road sprinkled fragrant petals from within their hands. As for the guardsmen that were standing above the city walls, they set off festive fireworks, and the melodious sound of a trombone resonated throughout the entire horizon.The sky was ravaged with fireworks as they blossomed above in broad daylight. Even if it was still daytime, after undergoing the modification of magicians, the fireworks still blossomed with radiance that was dazzling to the eye.The monarch of the Long Xuan Empire personally brought a troop to welcome the sage, and when everyone prostrated down in worship, the monarch welcomed the sage into the Imperial Palace.The liveliness that was accompanied by the clamor was
When Taka made her move on the Suzaku Clan, due to the theory that ‘one shouldn’t do anything to harm one’s neighbors’, she had only had a little test of her skill and had not been too heartless by exploiting them too much. As for the other three big clans, however, it was an entirely different story. She saw no reason for reservation so she basically went full force on themThe reason for her doing what she’d done was to truly seize an opportunity that had presented itself! Her ferocity had exponentially increased until it was capable of making one’s hair stand up in anger.For example, on a certain young master’s bedside that was from the Azure Dragon Clan, where the 7-star sword was hung, the lavish scabbard of the sword had been entirely cleaned of its dazzling precious stones and its gilded golden ornaments was not
Ryu, on the other hand, figured that he would not be able to afford to have another mishap inside his own household, especially not before they were able to secure the invitation of the sage. Thus, he immediately sent his most trustred people to have the Snow Spiritual Fox delivered to the God’s Domain. Not long afterward, he then received information that the other party had arrived from the God’s Domain.In ten days, the sage of the God’s Domain would personally proceed towards the Long Xuan Empire, to the Suzaku Clan, in order to rouse the Phoenix. This one piece of information had everyone from the Suzaku Clan crying tears of joy. Their hundred years of misery would finally be seen through to an end.Within the next ten days, everyone put out an extreme amount of effort, and it was a rarely seen sight where the elders and the youngst
On the flip side, Taka stood at the entrance of the Qilin Auction House. Upon seeing the rear view of the attendant leaving, Taka’s hand subconsciously reached out to touch that little face of hers that had changed beyond recognition.The result of the low-level face-altering potion was pretty good. Although the effectiveness was shortened by that bit for that given period of time, it was just enough to conform to her requirement for the three hours were enough for her to have those goods delegated. If there was even more effectiveness for a given period of time, she truly would not know how she would carry that kind of face back to the Suzaku clan.The present Taka’s facial appearance was slightly better when compared to her original and she figured it was due to a huge difference in skin care regime. Not only was her skin right now was slightly fa
Since she had already set the Qilin Auction House as the target, Taka then couldn’t help but make the next step of planning. Although there were very less people who had seen the shame of the Suzaku clan, it was hard to say that she would not be recognized by the people of the Qilin clan at other locations sometime later. Therefore, Taka had decided on the spot to go to another auction house in advance and used the money that she had and bought a few bottles of face altering potion.The face-altering potion was a rather common kind of medicine and it can be divided into three grades which were the ‘low’, ‘middle’ and ‘high’. Different subdivisions of the face altering potion, of course, would all have a varying duration depending on its grade. Likewise, the duration of its ability to hold a disguise as well their price would have even more disparity. On that night,
As of now, Taka’s main problem was precisely money!The only sole thing that made Taka rejoice was that she had picked a proper ‘occupation’ for herself at that time, the godly thief, don’t you think so?! With regards to her, this kind of thing called money was like a rock on the floor, that could be seen just about everywhere. If she had not widened her horizons at that time by being a hitman, a spy and so on, it would have been very likely that she could only silently stay at that dim corner and constantly dawdle about there!“Isn’t it just 30000 pieces! You can be at ease for by the means of this young master’s skill, I will definitely make you eat till you feel like throwing up!”With regards to her workmanship, Taka was quite confident in herself. What was more wa
‘Didn’t I say that it would have inhibitions on your strength. Undoing the first layer of seal is only but the beginning. If you want to become stronger, then you have to continue to undo the later seals. In this way, not only you can continue advancing but also, those strength that was previously inhibited would subsequently gush out.’ Linux’s voice was still the same as before where it was tranquil without any ripple and a hint of chilliness was carried together.“Then, what is needed to undo the second layer of seal?” Taka asked.Linux went silent for a moment and then only said one statement, ‘Demonic Beast’Demonic beasts were vicious organisms that were scattered everywhere across the Radiance Continent and resided
“Taka. You have fairly done well!”Agnar distressingly looked at the daughter of his which was still at the bosom. If it was not for the fact that Ryu was here at this moment, it was very likely that he would have already long ago pounced Taka and ripped her apart into fragments.As Abiri had Taka protected behind his back, he looked at Agnar and said,“Second uncle, why do say such a thing? Just what had this matter got to do with Taka?”“How could it be that she is unrelated to this matter? Jesse was injured in her room and it is very clear that it is this vile spawn that has harbour this evil intention wanting to injure Jesse!”No matter how Ryu was to think about it, Agnar had always fr
Just at that moment when Taka was inwardly wiping away her tears, in a rage, Jesse, who had been ignored by Abiri had killed her way into the room.The moment when she entered into the room, she immediately saw that pile of presents on top of the table and that pair of eyes of hers which filled with anger had momentarily became red in jealousy.“You, idiot, on what basis had you made Brother Abiri treat you that well! You are simply just a trash! Idiot! Even the most inferior servant within the mansion is one hundred times stronger than you! You simply do not deserve to have Brother Abiri’s items!”Gripping her fist tightly, Jesse tenaciously glared at Taka who was sitting on top of the bed where within the eyes of hers was the unwillingness that had practically burnt away all of her rational
