Have you ever felt invisible?

Like you finally have everything working out just the way you have envisioned or planned?

Even my mother thinks I am on cloud nine, and for a moment I stopped bothering about anyone trying to hurt me. My rank on the system had moved considerably up the ladder, and I knew I was not going to have any challenges.

Ah!

Do I need to tell you the money from the system got tripped since I became the new lord? I have gotten many friends who wanted to be with me simply for the power.

But I didn't mind. If power was all it takes to become who I wanted to be, then I am going to have to keep winning. Zara couldn't hide her joy when the system contacted her.

I was asleep when I heard the continuous ring of my phone. At first I couldn't get up. I had celebrated alone, drinking myself into a stupor.

My mother mustn't see me being like that. Mrs. Tracy hates it when she smells alcohol, another reason she was into coffee shops. "Responsible young men dri

    My jaw clenched.Scar's question hung in the air like a poisoned dart. I was not sure how to answer him, but I knew he wanted an answer for his question. Does that include Mandy Celine too?I don't need to answer immediately.I kept walking, slower now, my mind spinning. The hallways were empty. Most of the students were now in their various departments, each focusing on their academics. Scar wasn’t looking at me. He knew he had crossed a line, but he also knew me well enough to ask it.“You still love her,” he said quietly. “Even after she left you for Derek. Even after she said you were nothing but a pauper. Is that it?"“I don’t love her,” I said, my voice low and sharp. “I want her back not because I love her but because I am going to claim everything that belongs to Derek." Scar scoffed. “Sounds like the same thing to me.”I stopped walking.He did too, reluctantly turning to face me.“I don’t want her because of love,” I added with a cold smile. “I want her to know she made t

    I stormed out of the class immediately. I heard what Scar told me. I knew there was going to be a problem once he started digging. I met Derek with some of his friends laughing and gisting. The school was hosting a party for some of the new students that had been admitted. I knew it was a way to find out who the system was talking about, but the problem I was having was knowing his intention. Why was he here, and what was his mission?I knew by now that most of the gamers must have been searching, but I was less bothered. I was the Lord Gang, and I could easily command them to look for this mystery guy and bring him to me. Derek's face went pale when he saw me coming towards him. His cronies began to disperse one by one. I pocketed it as I got closer with a look that meant he was in hot soup. "What is this that I am hearing? Why are you interested in the next game?" I asked with my gaze fixed on him. "The system gave out the mission, and it is only right if I partake in it. I am

    It was the last thing I expected to see. The message that appeared next made me dumb and scared. [System Task: Find out who Eliot's junior brother is.] [System reward: Eliminate one gamer] My blood froze. What would happen to me if Derek happened to find out who he was? How come? It almost looked like all the ghosts kept coming back. First, it was Zara coming back for revenge, and now Eliot's brother was coming too. Who will come for me if I am killed? That was the question that rang inside this little head of mine. I knew most of the gamers could have seen it too. I heard the whispering and bickering as I walked through the hallway. Then the tweaking started. In less than a few minutes, there were tons of messages already, each asking who killed Elliot. It was like his dead body had risen from the grave. "Don't you think Jason should be scared?" "Why? Did he kill him?" "Don't tell me you didn't hear when he said he had the lives of both him and De

    I was surprised too. I didn't want Mrs. Tracy to find out about what was going on with me at the school. At least not yet. Scar and some of the students who were richer, though the system, were lined up with their fancy cars. Each car costs millions of dollars. "And who are those?" Tracy asked, staring at me as I grabbed the lunch bag she gave to me. "They are my friends." I said without blinking. I was getting bolder and more fearless. Not that I didn't notice it, but maybe that was what I really needed right now. I knew there were many obstacles to be cleared, and also I needed to fight more battles each day. "Your friends, huh?" Mrs. Tracy said, trying to find out the truth. I nodded this time around without talking. "Are you being bullied, son?" She asked with her eyebrows arched. "You know we can change your school if you want to." Mrs. Tracy moved closer to me and held my hands. "I was not able to protect my late son, Jason. But you are all I have got now,

    I lay on the bed with my thoughts going back and forth. My heart told me Zara meant well, but what if the system pitched us against each other? What am I going to do then? I tried to sleep, but I couldn't. The kiss was all I could replay and think about. Her gentle smile when she kissed my lips and her constant gaze as we drank some coffee and ate our pastries. I rolled on the bed, wishing Zara didn't have to change. The door to my room opened slowly, and I saw Mrs. Tracy standing right in front of it. "Can't sleep." She said it slowly and walked in. "Yes, Mum," I replied, sitting up. "Want to talk about it?" That is the thing. I don't know if I should tell her everything. The system, the date with Zara, and the revenge plan. I was not sure if it was a good idea to tell her everything. "You know, I can't help you if you are not telling me the whole thing. I need to see the picture." Mrs. Tracy looked at me. I nodded. "I just don't know where to start," I replied, br

    Am I in love? I looked at Zara as we cruised around the city. She had taken me to the best lounges, bars, and even gallery centers. I kept looking at her, and I knew she was different. Maybe that was what I actually thought about her. "You should stop staring, you know. You are going to bore a hole right through me." Zara added, "Sorry. I am just surprised to see that you are so happy." I replied, trying to cover the fact that I was beginning to love her. "Let's just say that I am slowly getting to know why my sister died, and I am going to find out who her killer was." Zara said with her gaze fixed on the buzzing street. "But what if the killer is dead?" I asked, trying to take her mind off the fact that her sister's killer might still be alive. Zara halted and looked at me. "What are you driving her, Jason?" she asked, staring into my eyes. I don't know what to say, but for a few moments, we stared at each other. I could capture every emotion and the pain in h
