Two hours earlier…

The matte black Bentley Continental GT Mulliner slid into the parking lot, its engine revving softly. As it approached, the crystal-cut LED headlights splintered the shimmering light like fractured diamonds. It slowly came to a halt, sitting under the club’s neon awning like a chasm in the night. Its velvet-textured paint swallowed the city's glare, until the car looked less like a vehicle and more like a solid iron beast.

  • Chapter Seventeen: A Wolf in Sheep's Clothing

    Two hours earlier…The matte black Bentley Continental GT Mulliner slid into the parking lot, its engine revving softly. As it approached, the crystal-cut LED headlights splintered the shimmering light like fractured diamonds. It slowly came to a halt, sitting under the club’s neon awning like a chasm in the night. Its velvet-textured paint swallowed the city's glare, until the car looked less like a vehicle and more like a solid iron beast.The valet hesitated, afraid to touch the car's handle. His eyes were fixated on the ‘Double Diamond's grille, a silver-on-black matrix of interlocking chainmail… it gave the car a heavy, armoured stare that bore into his heart.Eventually, he pulled over and saw her sitting at the driver's side. Again, his eyes drifted to the car… not by choice. He could see the 22-inch wheels gleaming with self-leveling center badges that kept the Bentley ‘B’ perfectly upright, a silent promise of stability in the coming chaos.“It feels good to be here again,” J

  • Chapter Sixteen: A Precarious Situation

    Jack's gaze lingered on his cellphone for minutes, eyes narrowed in surprise. Someone with an unknown ID had just called him, and he had absolutely no idea who it was. How did the person even get his number?When he was broke, several people in his life scorned him. Most of them were his manager, coworkers, and people whom he'd helped. None of them had the motive to call him this night, telling him about some stupid game.“System, do you know this person's identity?” He asked, wondering if the System could identify the unknown caller.[The Trillionaire System is omniscient]Jack's eyes widened in surprise. I mean, he already knew the System was very powerful. But, he didn't know it was omniscient as well! At that moment, he realized he'd not yet grasped the full scope of the System's power. Perhaps, he'd not be able to do so till he died.“That's good,” he replied, a cold smile spreading across his lips. “Why didn't you tell me this before?”[The Host is expected to ask questions]He

  • Chapter Fifteen: An Enhancement-type Reward

    The cold wind felt soothing to Jack's skin, as he awaited the System's response. What could the rewards be? And how would they benefit him in the long run?As a former financial consultant, he'd always believed in long-term strategies. As a result, he disliked mingling with short-sighted people—ones who never saw the bigger picture. And that included his boss, whom he had no choice but to work with…[The Trillionaire System is glad the Host has finally stopped roleplaying a dominant master with a powerful aura.]“You really didn't have to say that,” Jack said, his eyes drifting around to see if someone was watching.Just as he'd realized, he could communicate with the system mentally. But, he didn't want to do that. He wanted to learn how to communicate with others perfectly, maintaining a calm tone. And who could help him achieve this, if not for the System with a vile personality?[I'll have to warn you now. The Trillionaire System does not have a personality, much less a vile one.

  • Chapter Fourteen: Rewards in Suspense

    The System's words hung in Jack's heart like a million-dollar portrait. It was heavy, yet extremely valuable at the same time… He almost couldn't contain his excitement.‘Two rewards?!’ He was almost screaming out loud. ‘And I have to choose one?’[That's correct, Host]Huh? He scrunched his voice, ignoring the servants briefly. Could the system read his thoughts? How was that possible?[That's correct, Host. Don't you think you're underestimating the Trillionaire System at this point? I mean, resurrection and mind-reading?]‘And it has a personality too…’ Jack noticed. The sarcasm within the system’s words lingered in his heart, like the smell of garlic.[Of course! I'm not like one of those systems with personalities of ChatGPT and Gemini]‘Alright, that's it,’ he said inwardly, almost frowning. ‘We’ll have to talk later…’[There's been an update to the rewards. Now there's a duration before it expires]Jack's facial muscles twitched. He didn't even need to ask, when the System answ

  • Chapter Thirteen: A Chivalrous Speech

    An hour later, Jack sat on a couch in the living room, his eyes transfixed on the servants standing in front of him. Jane had already dealt with everything for him, making sure the press and the police left the premises. She was still running about, putting things in place, so she wasn't around. Margaret sat beside him, her eyes fixated on her brother. Her meek and powerless brother had become violent and powerful, all of a sudden. It was a change she couldn't quite place her head around… a drastic leap in his behavior. “Is this… all?” Jack soon spoke, twirling his index finger in the air. “Yes… Sir,” one of the servants replied, his voice trembling. He was a bearded man in his thirties, eyes filled with a youthful twinkle. He seemed like the type who had seen many things—the type who kept secrets. “Well, the number seems too small for someone who loved galavanting,” he said, his eyes drifting to the man. The man gulped, his eyes fixated on the floor. “We were thirty employees in

  • Chapter Twelve: The Power Move

    Her microphone captured it all as she tried vainly to contain her excitement. Martha had been a reporter for years, but had never seen anything as interesting as this. It was a drastic power shift, one that would linger in the hearts of the public for a long time to come.“This… this is the moment that will define him!” She said, her eyes fixated on the camera.Noticing the cue, the videographer turned the camera in Jack's direction. His firm palms worked the stand swiftly and delicately, as if his life depended on it. He believed this footage would be a turning point in his career.The wealthy and tall man, Jack, was the center of everything… The one around whom the story revolved. It was a mystery how someone like him could take down the loan shark. Winston was one of the most powerful men in the city, everyone knew that.“That's good,” Jack cast a glance at the camera, his expression very serious. “There's a reason I asked for this to be covered…”He let go of Winston, allowing the
