The Billionaire’s Revenge System

Chapter 2 – The Birth of a Ruler

“Ding!” The sharp sound echoed in Raymond’s mind, jolting him upright. A translucent holographic notification floated before him, hovering midair as if it existed both everywhere and nowhere.

He stared at it, his pulse quickening.

> Congratulations, Sir. You have received 100% shares of Global Bank London. Ownership documents are securely stored in your system inventory.

Raymond’s chest tightened. His heart thumped so fast it felt like it might leap out. He swallowed hard and let out a long breath. “Thank you… System. You’re… extraordinary,” he murmured, voice trembling with disbelief.

“Ding.”

> In appreciation for praising the system, you have received a Body Enhancement Potion.

A small vial filled with shimmering blue liquid appeared in his virtual inventory. Its glow seemed to hum with power. Impatient curiosity overtook him. Without hesitation, he twisted the cap and drank it all in one gulp.

At first… nothing. Raymond frowned, skepticism creeping in. Was this some trick?

Then his body screamed. Every muscle tensed, every bone felt as if it was being meticulously reconstructed from the inside. Pain seared through him, sharp and relentless. He tried to cry out, but his mouth felt sealed by an invisible force. Hot tears streamed down his face. He fought with every ounce of his will, clinging desperately to consciousness.

Time slowed. Fragile bones grew dense and unbreakable. Muscles coiled tight yet remained fluid. He gasped, shivering violently. The pain gradually gave way to a flowing warmth, an energy that surged through every fiber of his body.

Raymond lifted his trembling hands. Skin tighter, veins more pronounced, muscles bulging under the surface. He flexed his arms, his chest rising and falling with newfound strength, and a grin spread across his face.

“Wow… this power… it’s real.”

He stood, bent, jumped lightly, landing with effortless grace. His body felt lighter, sharper, faster. Not just his muscles—his reflexes were honed, his mind clearer than ever. Staring at his reflection, he barely recognized the man in the mirror: chiseled jaw, piercing eyes, six-pack abs glinting even under dim light.

A laugh escaped him, incredulous. “My life… has changed forever.”

“Ding.”

> Daily login available. Claim your reward?

Raymond nodded without hesitation. “Yes. Claim.”

> Congratulations. You have received a Glock 17 with unlimited ammunition.

He stared at it in his inventory. A tool of power. A token of dominance. He clenched his fists, feeling control surge through his veins.

> Additional mission available: Test emotional control in social interactions.

Reward: Charisma +1

Risk: Loss of persuasion ability for 48 hours

A frown crossed his face. The mission appeared just as he was about to leave. He accepted without a second thought.

Raymond checked his body. Stability confirmed. He slipped into a lightweight black jacket and simple sneakers. In the mirror, a shadow of the past appeared—Victor, the former business rival who once destroyed him.

“Your time will come,” he muttered coldly, teeth clenched.

A quick breakfast later, he stepped out. Elena, his neighbor, waved. She was effortlessly elegant, her presence commanding attention without trying.

“Breakfast too? Come walk with me,” she smiled warmly.

Raymond gave a small, awkward grin. “Sure, I’ll join.”

As they walked, he noticed people glancing. His new appearance radiated confidence. Elena’s inner smile betrayed relief—he was finally willing to engage.

At a quaint restaurant, Raymond ordered the priciest dish. Elena offered to pay, but he declined firmly.

“I can afford it,” he said, voice steady and sure.

Eating, he felt a warmth unlike anything before—a mix of happiness and awareness of his power. The system notified him:

> Mission complete. Charisma +1 added.

Raymond’s lips curled into a satisfied smile. He was beginning to understand the rhythm of this new world.

Afterward, he returned to his apartment. The system explained: all non-living items could be stored instantly. Clothes, documents, essentials—all vanished into an unseen inventory.

“Hah… incredible,” he murmured, smiling faintly. The system was no mere game. It was a new reality. A world brimming with opportunity… and power.

Late afternoon, Raymond headed to the mall. Goals clear: new phone, new clothes, research a living space. He exited at a prestigious London mall, strides confident and purposeful.

In the phone store, his eyes locked on the iPhone 15 Pro Max. He pointed decisively. Victoria, a senior clerk, sneered.

“You seriously want this?” she asked, voice dripping with condescension.

Raymond smiled faintly, unshaken. The system had given him the power to accomplish anything.

> Mission triggered: Teach the arrogant clerk a lesson.

Reward: Reputation +2

Risk: Loss of right arm if failed

He accepted. With a swift motion, he paid for the phone and added $500 in gifts for friendly staff.

Farah, a young clerk, smiled brightly and handed him her business card. He accepted politely, noting silently that it might prove useful later.

> Mission complete. Reputation +2 added.

---

Next, he visited the clothing section. Every outfit chosen to amplify confidence. Each step radiated certainty. People noticed. He didn’t care. A new world awaited, and he was ready to dominate it.

> System: Missions and challenges may appear at any time. Stay prepared.

Raymond smiled, heart steady. Opportunities, risks—he welcomed them all. He was no longer a victim. He was the ruler.

Outside the mall, he gazed at the darkening London sky. In one hand, the system card. In the other, his new phone. His chest swelled with unyielding determination.

“The world is harsh. People underestimate me. But I am no longer the old Raymond.”

Victor’s shadow lingered in his thoughts. Fists clenched, eyes burning.

“From now on… I don’t survive. I dominate.”

Ding. System: External threat detected. Defense mission will commence shortly.

Raymond smirked coldly. This new world had just encountered an opponent it never anticipated.
