"Finally, some fresh air," Jasper muttered, looking around with a happy expression on his face.
He was in a good mood at the moment. He was working towards what the System gave him.
Also, there was the company he was given. Skyline Technologies, or whatever the name the System had given him.
But there was a problem: unlike the Sky Hotel, which was popular, this company was not.
It is safe to say that he had never heard of the company ever since he came to Oakridge.
How the heck was he going to get there, talk more or less about making the company worth the amount of money the System had demanded from him?
Jasper sighed and took out his phone, intending to use G****e to search for the company and see if he was going to find any information about the company.
Just as he had expected, he saw the company, but his mouth opened wide in shock, not knowing what to say.
This was a company that was about to shut down. The company had already gone bankrupt and yet the System had given him a ridiculous task.
How was he going to start? Where was he going to start from?
At first, Jasper thought about ignoring the System, but when he remembered the penalty was death and the countdown on the screen, he shivered and quickly mounted his scooter, heading to the company.
He was ready to die. At least, just not yet, he had many things he wanted to do, so there was no way he was going to allow himself to be killed.
In no time, he arrived at the company. Looking at the run-down structure of the company. He couldn't help but shake his head, there was a lot to do.
Now, because of the system, he was going to have to clean up the mess made by another person.
Walking into the company, just as he had expected, there was no one there, and it was extremely quiet.
The receptionist was sitting at her post with her legs crossed while chewing gum.
She glanced at Jasper, who had just walked in, and looked away at the phone she was holding.
"Hi there." Jasper didn't mind her attitude. He knew that she was most probably coming so that she would be able to collect her payments.
The company had gone bankrupt and the only reason it was not closed down yet was because she and some others had not yet given up.
"If you want a job, then I suggest you try other companies." The receptionist said, not even raising her head to look at Jasper.
"No, I'm not here to look for a job." Jasper shook his head.
Hearing this, the lady finally raised her head to look at Jasper.
"Then what do you want?" She asked, squinting her brows as she looked at him.
"I want to see the president of the company," he replied.
"Oh!" The lady muttered as she continued to chew her gum.
"Perhaps you are the guy the president said would be coming later?" She asked, looking at Jasper.
"Well, I don't know what he told you, but you at least help me give him a call." Jasper forced a smile.
"Sure." The lady agreed and proceeded to make a phone call.
"He said he'd come soon". The lady turned to Jasper and said after she ended the call.
"Thanks." Jasper nodded and looked around.
The company was already run down, and the building was in a much worse state. Where was he going to start?
All he had was a hundred million dollars. How was he going to do It? The system had said he was to do it within two months. It was ridiculous, but he had to do it anyway.
"Mr. Brennan." A voice came as a figure much older than Michael walked towards Jasper.
"Yeah, that's me." Jasper nodded.
"Sir, I would like to give you some advice." The man, Jackson said, looking at Jasper seriously.
He had thought that the other party was just a second rich generation who had bought the company just for fun and thus wanted to tell him that it was of no use.
"You don't have to say anything, I already know that buying the company was a mistake. The staff are not paid yet, and the company is in a state of bankruptcy with some debts on its neck." Jasper smiled, looking at the man.
He was not a fool and knew that getting the company was a bad idea. But he was not the one who had bought the company, it was the system that gave it to him.
So, no matter the way it looked, he was going to follow the System's wishes and do what was meant to be done.
Jackson was a bit shocked to hear what Jasper said. He couldn't believe that Jasper had seen through it all. He couldn't help but have a glimmer of hope as he felt that Jasper would be able to help the Company rise once again.
They were famous back then, and it was just because of a very small mistake that they came crashing. Now someone was here and he had a glimmer of hope.
The real reason he was yet to leave the company was because he felt a lot of sentiments towards the company since he was there when it was founded.
He couldn't just leave it and had wanted to dissuade Jasper because he didn't want the latter to waste his money.
"Tell me, how much is needed to pay off the workers?" Jasper asked his question, pulling Jackson out of his thoughts.
"That'll be about a hundred million," Jackson replied.
"But if I just wanted to pay them their salaries, it's just fifty million, but alongside their bonuses and others, it would be a hundred million."
Jasper narrowed his brows when hearing this. That was all the money he had on him, but he was going to use it to settle the employee; after all, he needed to settle them first if he wanted to gain their trust.
"Since that's the case, we'll be starting from there. I'll give you a hundred million, and you'll settle it." Jasper stated after thinking about it for a while.
No more than he had said this, he heard the mechanical voice rang in his head,
"Ding!"
"Hidden mission completed.”

Stalemate
The fight began faster than most people expected. Bai Zhe stepped forward first. The girl stepped forward too. No one said anything. They both just stared at each other, waiting for the other to move.Jasper sat with the others. He leaned back. “This one might take a while,” he said.Bai Zhe shifted his feet. The girl did the same. She kept her eyes on him. He didn’t blink.“Ready?” she said.“Yeah,” Bai Zhe replied.The referee raised his hand. “Begin!”Bai Zhe rushed in. She blocked instantly. Their fists collided. They both paused for a second from the impact. She swung at him, but he bent back and avoided it. He tried to sweep her legs, but she jumped. She tried to kick him when she landed. He caught her leg. She twisted out of his grip.They both stepped back again.“Not bad,” Bai Zhe said.“You too,” she said.He charged again. She met him halfway. Their fists kept meeting. Every punch sounded heavy. The crowd got louder. Some people already stood up.Bai Zhe tried to grab her a
Long Day
Dinner that night was quiet in a way that felt heavier than any argument. Everyone sat around the table, eating slowly, each of them lost in their own thoughts. No one seemed eager to speak. Even Bai Zhe, who always had something to say, kept his gaze on his bowl.Jasper sat at the end. His posture was straight, his expression unreadable. He didn’t say much either. He only observed them, and the room itself, as though he was filing everything away in his head.One of the men who had lost twice cleared his throat. “Long day,” he muttered.Bai Zhe nodded. “Very long.”The girl sat two seats away. She poked lightly at her food. Her hand was steady enough, though Jasper noticed the slight tension in her shoulders.“You should eat,” Jasper said.She looked at him for a moment, then nodded and took a small bite.Another one of the men sighed. “Tomorrow will be worse.”“It won’t be worse,” Bai Zhe said. “It’ll just be annoying.”The man huffed quietly. “Same thing.”No one laughed, though a
You fought good
The clock kept ticking on the wall, each minute dragging a little longer than it should. Everyone in the arena seemed tired. Even the crowd sounded drained. After the last match ended, the referee finally raised his hand and spoke loudly enough for the room to hear.“That’s all for today. We continue tomorrow.”A few people sighed in relief. Some clapped weakly. A couple of the fighters just walked off without waiting for anything else. It had been a long day, and most of them didn’t have much strength left to pretend otherwise.Jasper stood near the side, arms folded. He didn’t react to the announcement. He just watched his men walk over to him one by one. Some of them looked embarrassed. Some just looked disappointed.Two of his men had lost twice already. Their expressions told the whole story before they even opened their mouths.“Boss,” one of them said quietly.Jasper nodded. “You did what you could.”The man didn’t look convinced, but he nodded back.The second man approached.
Withdraw
Two minutes before she stepped onto the stage, the room felt too still. She stood there with her arms folded, staring at the floor like she was trying to settle her thoughts before they spilled over.Jasper didn’t like the look on her face.He leaned closer. “You heard that announcement?”She nodded once.He let out a breath. “Don’t fight. Just step back and let it go.”She didn’t answer immediately. She kept her eyes on the ground, almost as if she was waiting for something to make the choice for her. But nothing did. She lifted her head.“I need to win one of the first three spots,” she said quietly.Jasper frowned. “You won’t get it if you’re injured.”“I still need to try.”“You don’t,” he said. His tone was steady, not harsh. “If you quit, you still have a chance later. They might let it slide. But if you get hurt now, you’re done. There’s nothing after that.”She shook her head. “No. I’m already here. I can’t step back now.”He exhaled again, slower this time. “You’re being stub
Jasper versus Roland
The referee raised his hand again. “Next match. Jasper versus Roland.”Roland stepped forward. He was one of the three men everyone already feared. He cracked his knuckles once and looked at Jasper with a calm expression. Jasper didn’t say anything. He just stood there, relaxed.People in the audience whispered.“That’s one of them.”“Jasper might lose.”“I don’t think so. He’s too calm.”“Calm doesn’t mean unbeatable.”Bai Zhe rubbed his sore arm. “He’ll be fine.”Marco wasn’t convinced. “You sure? That guy looks dangerous.”“He always looks dangerous,” Bai Zhe said. “Let’s just watch.”The referee dropped his hand. “Begin!”Roland moved first. He rushed at Jasper without hesitating, aiming a straight punch at his face. Jasper tilted his head slightly, and the punch went past him. Roland didn’t stop—he spun and aimed a kick toward Jasper’s ribs.Jasper caught the leg with one hand.The crowd gasped.Jasper pushed Roland back gently, as if he was just clearing space. Roland stumbled t
I'm still alive
Bai Zhe gritted his teeth as the kick hit his knee. He staggered back a step, steadying himself. The man came in fast again, throwing another punch. Bai Zhe dodged it this time and pushed the man’s arm aside, trying to create space.“I thought you said you were tired,” the man said.“I lied,” Bai Zhe replied.The man chuckled and rushed in again. Bai Zhe moved back, blocking a punch to his chest. The impact still made him wince. He could feel a sting in his arm. The man wasn’t holding back.Marco shouted, “Bai Zhe, move to the left! Don’t stay straight!”“I know!” Bai Zhe snapped, but he still listened. He shifted left and avoided another punch by a hair.The man kept pressing him, punch after punch. Bai Zhe blocked some, dodged the rest, but his breathing was getting heavier. The man didn’t seem tired. He kept a steady pace, like he had been waiting for Bai Zhe’s stamina to drop.“You’re slowing---” the man said.“You talk too much,” Bai Zhe replied.The man smirked. He aimed a kick
