ANOMALY: I HAVE COUNTLESS SYSTEMs

Chapter 10 – Sandara’s father trying to kill Leo

Park Yoo’s pupils shrank, and he moved instantly.

 

Before either Sandara or Leo could react, Leo was struck in the exact same spot on his chest and was thrown into the wall behind him, just like the scene from moments ago.

 

As the impact’s force made Leo rapidly lose consciousness, the last thing he saw was the muscular man standing by the door, still holding his kicking pose, being restrained from behind by the girl, her eyes shining with murderous intent as she continued watching him.

 

Then Leo fully lost consciousness and no longer knew what was happening.

 

...

 

After that slap, Sandara had first frozen in place from shock and pain.

 

This stillness lasted until she heard a sudden explosive noise.

 

When she lifted her head, she reacted immediately and grabbed her father’s arm, stopping him as he was about to continue beating Leo.

 

Naturally, Park Yoo did not want to stop here, but since his daughter had stopped him, continuing might not be a good idea.

 

Besides, the slap he had given earlier was not even that strong.

 

It seemed his assumptions were truly correct, and this boy was definitely weaker than Sandara.

 

As the thoughts in Park Yoo’s head came together, he looked as if he had experienced enlightenment.

 

Apparently, Sandara wanted to take her revenge on her own.

 

In the end, the house's cute daughter had grown up and no longer wanted to rely on her father for everything; instead, she tried to handle her own matters.

 

Park Yoo could not stop himself from remembering a movie he had watched when Sandara was still little.

 

In the movie, the girl had grown up living in the shadow of her father’s choices, and when the hitman main character killed her father because of a job, she soon faced the cruel side of society and became a street prostitute before she could regain her balance.

 

This character was only a side character in the movie, but Park Yoo had been very affected by her back then.

 

After imagining a few scenarios in his mind, he felt that his own anger was far less important than his daughter’s future.

 

“All right, Sandara, there is no need to be scared. I am not that kind of incompetent father. If my daughter wants to take her own revenge, I will not do anything to stop her unless necessary.”

 

Sandara, however, did not even register what her father had said because she was shocked by the changes in Leo’s body.

 

His skin no longer looked like lifeless, dead flesh as usual, but more like the skin of a healthy young man. In fact, it was so pale that she immediately thought of Leo’s mother, who was half Ukrainian, half Korean. She, too, had a very bright white complexion just like Leo had now.

 

But the most important thing was not Leo’s skin, it was his hair.

 

Normally, because of his illness, Leo’s hair roots were extremely weak, which always made his bald spots visible, but now it was completely different.

 

Leo’s hair looked like that of a young man who had intentionally dyed it white.

 

At that moment, Sandara heard her father’s voice, snapped out of it, turned around, and began dragging her father away.

 

They were just about to leave Leo’s yard when Sandara, still holding her own cheek with one hand, walked with her head lowered.

 

During this time, Sandara wondered how bad Leo’s condition was.

 

Noticing his daughter’s concern, Park Yoo muttered to himself.

 

“If I had known you would stop me, I would not have held back and would have made sure he ended up in the hospital with the first hit.”

 

This sentence, in a way, meant that Leo was not in any immediate danger.

 

Hearing this, Sandara went home in silence with mixed feelings. As soon as she arrived, she shut herself in her room.

 

...

 

The sun rose, the sun set, the sun rose, the sun set.

 

Exactly two days.

 

When Leo woke up, every bone in his body did not merely ache from immobility; his arms and legs felt as if they had been torn off, giving him no feedback at all.

 

Feeling as if he had become bedridden, Leo looked around in fear while trying to move his body. Thankfully, after a while, his body remembered who was sending the signals and welcomed them with joy.

 

Leo first rolled to the side and lifted his butt into the air. Then he slowly pushed himself up with his arms.

 

There was a terrible hunger in his stomach, every part of his body was numb with pain, and his arms and legs made him wobble like old tube televisions struggling to receive a signal.

 

Leo forced himself fully upright and threw himself into the nearest room.

 

After letting himself fall onto a random couch in the living room, Leo began recalling what had happened before he fell asleep.

 

As time rewound in his mind, he first remembered how he had fainted. His face twisted in pain even more, then he remembered the system, and a momentary smile appeared.

 

At this moment, his body had fully recovered.

 

“Ahhhhhh, better than sex.”

 

Leo stretched his arms and legs wide, arching his body, trembling for two seconds in a pleasure beyond an erection, then stood up and walked to where he had dropped his phone.

 

Noticing that the hallway door was open and that he had been lying in front of the entrance all this time, Leo assumed he had only been asleep for a short while.

 

Leo immediately ordered food from the nearest restaurant.

 

But he was too hungry to wait for the delivery, so while waiting, he went to the kitchen and took a fruit yogurt from the fridge.

 

With the arrival of the food, Leo reached a state far beyond his best condition in just a few hours.

 

He then stood before the mirror and began examining the effects of the maximum health card.

 

When he took off his shirt, there were no eight-pack abs as he had imagined, but instead the delicate body of a fragile K-pop star.

 

“I am not an ungrateful person. This is better than before. By the way, do I not have a new quest system?”
