“And to my dear grandson, Daniel Hayes.” He continued. “My fountain pen belongs to you now.”The room fell completely silent the moment the words were spoken, even the sound of a pin dropped on the floor would be heardBut the silence didn’t last. It vanished the moment it came. Laughter, harsh and mocking, filled the room as many of them laughed, with one woman pointing at him.A fountain pen?Daniel felt his entire world fall apart with just a few words said to his face. He froze for a second, not able to put the words together.It had to be a joke.The lawyer looked closely at the pen and back at the will, then started again.“The specific item left behind by Harold Hayes is described to be—” he caught Daniel’s horrified gaze and continued, “a rare fountain pen from the 1980s with my initials engraved on the side. It’s a generational item passed down through many generations, and I want my dear grandson, Daniel, to be the next one to hold it.”Someone snorted immediately.“Don’t bo

A golden light grew so bright, so bright it illuminated the entire environment until Daniel's eyes popped open. Right in front of him, were golden texts hanging mid air. [LEGACY SYSTEM INITIALIZATION COMPLETE] [Host Name : Daniel Hayes] [System Status : Binding complete ] [Welcome Daniel Hayes] Daniel almost freaked out. "I have finally lost it, haven't I?" "Is this supposed to be my gateway to heaven?" The door to the room opened up, Daniel saw past the golden text and a doctor had stepped in—Mif forties, adorned by a white coat and glasses. It was then Daniel looked around and saw that he was actually in a hospital and not heaven. But how? "Good morning Mr. Hayes, glad to see you're awake." He said without making eye contact, his gaze was on the monitor. "How's the pain?" Pain? What pain? Daniel also felt something, it shouldn't be possible, Infact, it shouldn't be at all. Daniel felt he could move his other hand as if Victor never crushed it! "Impossible!" D

There were about two nurses outside watching him react in abnormal ways and wondered if he was okay. The lady by the side of the door took her eyes or the window, "What happened to him? He's looking like some final world boss about to take over the world." "Yeah right." The second nurse rolled her eyeballs with folded hands. "Didn't you see him, his manly pose?" "Oh come on, stop it, you don't even know this guy and you're being thrilled by him?" The lady held a look that asked if she was mad. The first nurse giggled and added. "But we have to admit he's cute." "You're impossible." She palmed her forehead "The patient hasn't received any visitor in five days, yet alone a flower." The first nurse didn't seem concerned as she said. "Well! That says he's not married." "Girl would you shut it! He looks 19, what a 26 year old gonna do with a kid?" "Kid or not, he's handsome." She seemed determined to make her move. "Nurse Vivian!" Another nurse rushed towards the two nurses

"H-how?! Who are you? Why are you helping Hamilton?" Aurora collected the cheque, gave it to one of the men immediately, "Ma'am it's real." The reply made her world halt in an instant. "So who are you?" Aurora faced Daniel. "You showed up out of nowhere, and the first thing you do is save Doctor Hamilton." Daniel remained unfazed. "I believe everyone has their own form of self interest. Just like you, I have mine." Aurora's face reddened with rage. She felt like giving an order for Daniel to get squashed like a bug but, whoever Daniel is, he had succeeded in preventing her from doing something she enjoyed doing the most with her time. For the first time ever, someone had thwarted her plans. She came closer, their faces inches apart. "I don't know who you are but mark my words, this isn't over yet." "Should I walk you out?" a playful gesture curled up Daniel's face. Aurora's face flushed with anger even more. Being double crossed and that by a boy? She stormed out of t

"Wait where will I sleep?" Daniel came to a sharp halt. He had been walking under the hot sun for hours, believing he knew where he was going. But looking at it now, he didn't know. He had just remembered Victor threw him out of his apartment which meant he had no home to go to, unless. Daniel checked out his profile.

Although, Daniel hadn't gone far when a message probe in front of him.. [ Ding! ] [ — Legacy System Task — ] [ The host must spend out of wealth under any circumstances.

It was starting to get dark, Daniel still hadn't found a place to crash for the night. It also looked like it was going to rain. Clouds turned grey in moments and the eerie feeling of a storm coming made Daniel's skin hair stand. If he couldn't spend out of his wealth then what? Was he supposed to magically convince someone to just let him crash with them for the night? Daniel Hayes grew up having no friends, all his life he dedicated it to his studies and grandfather. What many never knew about Daniel is how smart and intelligent he is. All those years having no friends was the result of it. Except he had a love interest but... he would never consider it as one. Daniel walked up miles upon miles, before he crashed on a road side bench, dehydrated. Daniel thought of getting a bottle of water but heck no, the legacy system was strict about its rules. Food, water—Daniel needed them, desperately. Daniel clicked open his tab and focused his gaze more solely on the w

'Two million?' Daniel almost choked. 'So One million for a night?' Daniel couldn't believe it. But, the lady beside him, didn't question the receptionist. She handed over a black card, whatsoever she was running or hiding from definitely made her blind to the obvious. Daniel wouldn't pay that amount even if he was allowed to spend out of his wealth, it wouldn't be two million. Hell, Daniel felt a great urge to buy the motel and rebrand it, to make it fair for customers and employees. It was a simple motel, not even a five star hotel. For a moment, Daniel wanted to say something while the transaction happened but he remembered; the system—do not spend your wealth! ‘Fuck the rules.’ Daniel cursed. As the beep sound occured the woman spoke fast, "Keys." She really wanted to get out of there. Daniel couldn't argue with that, he also wanted to get some rest but the thought of having a lady with him was practically not part of the plan. The receptionist felt uncomforta

The Blackwell Manor. "You lost her?" A man's cold inhuman voice filled the entire room like a thunder clap. The men in black stiffened. These men in black were faction X soldiers. "I gave you all a simple task! capture the damn girl and finish her off for good and bring back the black card." His voice raises through "Honey relax, it's started raining after all, they must have been unable to see her during the storm." "Storm my foot." The man thundered. "They are super powered for fuck sake and she, Theresa has no skills whatever, she's just as useless as her father." He kicked the table beside him so hard it shattered. His eyes exploded with intense fury as he moved around, restless, provoked. Red hair, black tux, red tie, mid thirties. He grabbed one of the soldiers. "Where was the last place you saw her?" His eyes fuming with intense rage as he asked. "Sir, we have no clue, it started raining when he had her in plain sight, she disappeared into a crowd and by the tim
