My Dominance Begins With Investing In Beauties!

Chapter 2

~Xavier

My fists tightened around the bridge railing. I lifted my right leg onto the top bar and shifted my left, ready to step forward.

Just as I was about to jump, a synthetic, cold voice echoed inside my skull like a computer.

[Xavier Steel, why do you have to kill yourself over a woman when you have the power to command all the women in the whole world?!]

I froze, then carefully stepped back down from the bars and looked around. No one was there.

Am I starting to hear things now? I scoffed under my breath. Women are never really pleased. Even after they leave you, they somehow make you start hearing voices. And you can never please them unless you’re rich.

[That’s right, Xavier Steel. Women are never pleased if you are poor. But with the Peerless Money System, women must be pleased!]

I staggered backward in fear.

“Peerless Money System?”

A flat, glowing computer panel suddenly materialized in front of me.

[Ding!]

[The Peerless Money System has been loaded.]

[Host: Xavier Steel]

[Age: 23]

[Height: 180 cm]

[Weight: 73 kg]

[Current Account Balance: $50]

[Health: 70]

[Stamina: 75]

[Skills: None]

[Affection Points: 0]

[System Funds: $990 Trillion]

[Main Quest Progress: 0%]

[Would you love to activate the Peerless Money System and stand a chance to unlock up to $990 TRILLION DOLLARS?!]

[Accept or Reject Offer!]

The synthetic voice in my mind and the floating panel in front of me scared the hell out of me.

First I was hearing voices, and now I was seeing things? Was I already hallucinating?

I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, certain the floating technological panel would vanish.

But it didn’t. Even with my eyes shut, it remained right there.

I turned my head left—the panel moved with my gaze. I turned right—it followed again, always staying perfectly in front of me.

My eyes shot open.

If the panel moved with me no matter where I looked, then I wasn’t hallucinating. It was inside my mind. Only I could see it.

Bold, highlighted words floated across the panel:

Accept or Reject System

In that moment I remembered my roommate back at the yard—a hardcore webcomic fan who had once explained system plots to me in detail.

Hold on… if I accept this system, would I really be rich?

I took a deep breath and reached toward the left side of the panel where the word “Accept” glowed.

The instant my finger touched it, a chime rang out.

[Ding!]

[Peerless Money System activated successfully!]

[Congratulations, Host!]

[Total System Funds: $990 Trillion]

[Initial Cash Reward: $1 Million]

[The Host can unlock the remaining System Funds by completing System Missions and following the rules of the Peerless Money System!]

Right after the announcement, my phone vibrated.

I pulled it out. A bank notification stared back at me.

“Credit Alert! You have received one million dollars! “

“Current Balance: One Million and Fifty Dollars!”

Holy shit.

System?

Excitement exploded through me.

This system is real… and I am fucking rich!

I am a millionaire!

I was still riding that high when I suddenly froze.

If I remembered correctly, the system had said that accepting the offer would let me unlock $990 trillion.

So why had it only given me one million?

Was it a liar just like everyone else?

[No, Host! The system is not a liar!]

The panel flared brighter.

Jeez…

Did this crazy system just hear what I was thinking?

[The system is inside you. You are the system. You don’t need to say anything—I can hear it even before you speak.]

I rolled my eyes.

“You said I would receive $990 trillion if I accepted the offer, but my account says otherwise. I always knew you were just like the systems in my neighbor’s books!”

[Host must be aware of the rules of the Peerless Money System!]

I blinked twice. Huh?

[The rules are simple, Host. You only receive $1 million as your first cash-out. But that is not all you get. You have full access to unlock every dollar in the system—up to $990 trillion!]

“And how exactly do I do that?”

[Just as the system stated, the rules are simple. All your money must be spent on qualified members of the opposite sex. The more money you spend on women, the more cash-back you receive. You will continue receiving cash-backs up to $990 trillion as long as you spend on qualified women and complete your missions!]

I scoffed.

“What a crazy system!” I shouted. “I just got betrayed by a woman, and you expect me to spend all of my money on women?!”

A few people walking past the bridge stopped and stared at me like I had lost my mind.

Some pointed.

“Is he mad or something?”

“I heard Isabella Milton dumped him this morning. Maybe that’s what’s driving him insane.”

“Should we call the psychiatric emergency line before he falls off the cliff?”

One of them looked me up and down. “And why is he dressed like that? He looks like a psychopath”

I ignored every word. None of them mattered. What mattered was the system floating in front of me, ordering me to pour money into the same gender that had just destroyed me.

I turned back to the panel.

“There’s no way I’m spending that money on women. I’m going to spend my wealth on myself—not on the female gender!”

Isabella had hurt me because she thought I was poor. Now I was a millionaire. I would elevate myself and show the world exactly what a real millionaire looked like.

I started walking toward the nearest mall when the floating panel suddenly blocked my vision and the synthetic voice rang out again.

[Main Quest Released!]

The panel expanded.

[Limited-Time Mission: Spend all of your first payout within 24 hours and gain 30 Affection Points from members of the opposite sex.]

I blinked.

Spend all of my first payout within 24 hours?

My first payout was one million dollars.

How the hell was I supposed to spend one million dollars in a single day?

And most importantly of all, what reward do I get by spending all my money in 24 hours?

[The reward of the host is revealed after the mission is completed! Complete the Quest to get your reward!]
