“If I'm fake, why are you still alive now?” The system bit back, almost as if it could feel emotions.

“Bring out the master card.” Alvin instructed, not minding the system’s bickering at all. He was in a very good mood, none of his previous sourness could be seen on his face. Money truly answereth all things.

He heard a low buzzing sound in his head and a black card appeared in his hand. His name and QR code was printed in gold on the card. He gasped, his eyes burning with excitement.

“Isn't this the rumored vvip black card that less than one percent of the world’s population has access to?”

“Of course. Your current account balance can only be fit for such a card. In the future, more money will roll in as long as you complete your missions successfully. Your card might even be upgraded to a supreme card. This time, you were compensated with ten times the amount you spent to get the bike here and other things. You even got a coupon. You only need to walk into any real estate company of your choice, select a preferred villa and the system will pay for it.”

Alvin was giddy with excitement. He had never seen so much money in his life. He had been very depressed when all the companies he applied to refused to hire him, despite the fact he had a first class and graduated top of his class. Not counting the fact that he interned at the Carter group thanks to grandpa.

He was meant to be retained in the group in readiness for when the old man will name him the heir. But he was met with numerous opposition from all sides. Sonya even threatened him with suicide. No one wanted the old man to name his beloved useless son in-law the heir when there were numerous blood relations eagerly waiting to take their own chunk of the inheritance, despite the fact that Alvin’s performance was stellar during the internship. Not even his performance could prevent him from being attacked at all corners.

However, he now had more money than he imagined. As long as he continues to complete missions, there will be no need for a 9-5 job, and he will soon be wealthier than both the Carter and Coleman family combined.

‘Sonya Carter, Fred Coleman, you both wait for me. I will destroy everything you hold dear and ruin your family, I will show you that living is more painful than dying.’

“Are you alright?” Leah asked hesitantly on seeing the twisted expression on his face.

She had been observing him, noticing a plethora of emotions on his face, almost as if he was conversing with an invisible being. She had watched his ears to see if he was wearing a bluetooth earbud, but he was not, making her incredibly confused and afraid. The young man who rescued her wasn't crazy, was he?

Alvin finally noticed her and smiled.

“I'm fine. It's almost dawn, let's go eat and find a change of clean clothes.”

****

Alvin didn't notice how far the distance from the roof to the ground floor was while climbing up, but he sure did as he went down. This was because the adrenaline pushing him on had disappeared.

He saw the motorcycle there and decided to park it properly, out of the way. Otherwise, the neighborhood security might confiscate it.

“Sir, there is no transport available in this area till seven in the morning. How do we leave?”

“My name is Alvin, don't call me sir. Our age difference isn't that much. There's a shopping mall two streets away, we will just stop there.”

Leah was immediately dumbfounded.

“Ah? Starlight mall is the biggest shopping center specializing in luxury items. The cheapest clothes there are sold for at least $1000. Let's wait at the park for the transport companies to resume. Then we can go to cheaper malls, or the market.” She muttered, quickly trying to talk him out of it.

During her good days, she could buy any luxury product she liked. But nowadays, she was as broke as a church mouse. Besides, the staff there fully recognized her. She didn't need more insults to reopen her wounds, so she hesitated a lot, not wanting to go.

Alvin smiled and patted her hair.

“Don't worry. Big brother has promised to take you out to buy something nice. I will definitely fulfill my promise. Let's go buy clothes and eat breakfast. Leave the bills for big brother.” He boasted with his chest puffed out, feeling quite proud of himself.

In ten minutes, they arrived at the mall and entered. The security were still having their morning coffee since people normally don't visit so early in the morning, except for those who messed up their clothes after going to the bar. Alvin caught sight of his reflection on the glass door, making his step halt for a while. He looked dirty and muddy with some parts of his shirt torn off. Blood matted some parts of his body, making for an awful sight.

He shrugged and continued on his way to the clothing section. He would just change into something better once inside.

“Hey! Stop right there! What's a smelly beggar doing in the esteemed Starlight mall? Who let you in? What was the security doing? How did you creep past the entrance?” An angry looking sales attendant roared, blocking them with a scowl on her face and her arm outstretched.

Alvin frowned and stopped for a while.

“Is that how you treat your customers? What do you mean by beggars?”

The girl laughed loudly, alongside the other attendant who came closer due to the commotion.

“Is your lowly self qualified to be our customer? Open your dog eyes wide and see; this is Starlight mall, a place meant for the rich and the powerful, not smelly paupers like you. How dare you dirty our eyes by coming here? Do you seriously expect people of our class to attend to lowly things like you?” She asked in an exaggerated tone.

“New mission alert!” The system suddenly announced, accompanied by the blare of alarm which went off in Alvin’s mind, distracting him from the argument.

“Ah? Another mission? Didn't I just finish the first one a while ago?”

    “Your mission is to make all these people stop looking down on you, and punish them for their errors. In other words, you must increase your prestige point by ten percent. If you must be the biggest global star, and the most powerful man in the world, one thing you can't lack is prestige, admiration and worship of people. This is not just a mission, it's your first training.”“What's my current prestige point?” Alvin asked in his mind. “1%. And that one percent is only because the little fool you just rescued respects you, alongside that bartender colleague of yours.”“What's the difficulty level of the mission? And what are the rewards?”“Worry about passing successfully before you think about the reward.” The system said, casually dismissing him.“Look at how stomped he looks at being found out. He's merely a snake pretending to be a dragon. Get out immediately before the security gets here. Otherwise, even the king of heaven won't be able to save you.” One of the sales attendants

    Alvin scoffed at them and rolled his eyes, waiting for more drama. The manager had a sharp eyes and was discerning. “Customer, is that what happened? I want to hear from you.”“Manager, what do you mean? Are you doubting me?” The sales attendant quickly interrupted, looking upset. “Shut up immediately, unless you want to get fired. Customer, please.”“I came here to take my sister shopping, in my bid to cheer her up. Who would have expected that your sales attendant would insult us? She even tried to slap me, and all I did here was in self defense. You can check the cameras. All the people I hit were those who tried to hit me first. My sister went through a lot last night barely surviving a life and death accident. I brought her here to cheer her up, and let her clean up before we leave. But your good staff assaulted us, frightening my already scarred sister even more. How do you think we should settle this?” Alvin asked, looking straight at the manager. The manager watched him ca

    “You bastard! How dare you hit me?” Liam Shawn shouted the moment he woke up. He stood up, not understanding the situation. He looked at the manager and immediately began to drool. “Pretty woman, are you the manager of this place?” “Yes. How may I help you?” The manager asked, trying hard to hide her disgust. “Get this idiot arrested before any other thing. How dare he attack me?” Liam Shawn said with a smile and grabbed the manager's arm. She immediately tried to push him away, but his strength was superior. “Don't be like this. I can take care of you, give you luxury items, and let you travel around the world. How about you become my woman?” He said with a creepy smile which made his eyes look smaller than usual. The manager made a face and immediately tried to push him away. “Let go of me, now.” She shouted, but Liam paid her no heed. “Don't be like that. Alright, I understand you're a feisty one that needs to struggle before she submits. It's still morning, I have

    Alvin looked at himself in the mirror of the VIP bathroom in the private lounge where the manager took him to and was immediately surprised. After taking a bath and changing into the clothes which the manager had brought for him, he looked like a different person. His deep russet colored eyes matched his burgundy colored suit to create a powerful combination that awed even himself. He strapped the grand Seiko brand watch on his wrist, and completed his exotic look. Indeed, the clothes make the man. The Alvin before him was one he had never seen before, his attire suited him perfectly, making him look like a billionaire CEO. And this was in a situation where he warned the manager to be conservative with money. Now imagine if he bought really expensive items worth millions, like Rolex Daytona. How would he look then? Indeed poverty is a bastard. No wonder everyone treats a broke man like trash. He sighed and loosened one more button on his shirt, showing a clear view of his sexy Ada

    “The system requires you to be ruthless, uncompromising and deadly. That's the only way you can fulfill your role.” The system's voice finally softened, as he sat on the sofa and picked up a magazine. However, he was in no mood to listen to any more of the system’s nonsense. Just then, he heard footsteps walk into the longue where he was sitting, making him look up. It was Leah and the manager, alongside two new sales attendants who were struggling with the numerous bags containing the things they bought. “Wow!” Alvin whispered, as he watched the newly transformed girl. She no longer looked like the messed up gutter rat he picked up a few hours ago. She was dressed in a designer skirt and top made of the softest pink cashmere, she was wearing a pearl necklace, a silver colored shoe to match her necklace and her soft skin, silver colored purse, a bracelet made of diamonds, and a beautiful pink strap leather watch which looked very expensive. Her hair was styled to perfection and sh

    “You have been rewarded with the latest model of the limited edition Lamborghini Aventador, seventy percent of Stars Wave entertainment shares, ten million dollars, one thousand system points, one reversal talisman, one physique training art, and battle skill. In addition, there are two lucky draws which you can use to draw lots for either techniques, weapons, treasures, or skills. Do you want to cash it out?”Alvin didn't hear the rest of what the system said. He only registered the Lamborghini before the Stars Wave entertainment shares struck him dumb. Stars Wave entertainment was the third biggest entertainment agency in the country and ranks top five in the entire continent. Getting signed to such a company that raised legendary musicians, actors and models was once a dream which he didn't dare to indulge in. But he was casually gifted seventy percent of the shares. Doesn't that make him the majority shareholder? Starswave, that behemoth was now his? He now owned the third bigges

    “What are you talking about? This car is an automatic, it drove here on its own after I called for it. Are you getting in or not?” Alvin asked and got into the car. Leah who was still hesitating quickly got in because he looked angry and impatient, as if he would really leave her behind. “Leah, it's better not to ask lots of questions in the future. There are lots of things you won't understand about me going forward, and a lot of things that may not make sense to you. But all I promise is that you will be well taken care of.” Alvin added after some thoughts. “Are you into illegal business?” Leah asked slowly, as if picking her words. “No. Do I look like that kind of person? I don't do illegal things, you don't have to worry about that.” Soon, he arrived at a nearby restaurant. It was a four star restaurant and they were already open for business. Some upper class office workers already stopped there to have breakfast on their way to work. Although the restaurant was not fi

    His words stunned even the guards, making them stop their advance. “Don't listen to his rubbish. Throw this beggar out. Now!” Lisa shouted, her eyes red like a demented witch. How could she have known that her little attempt at having fun by insulting Alvin would result in her being humiliated? She was so angry that all she wanted was to skin him alive, crush his bones, and drink his blood. “But madam…” The one who appears to be the leader said hesitantly, not wanting to get entangled in shit. Lisa looked at them in anger, and noticed the reason for their hesitation. “What are you waiting for? It can't be that you're intimidated by this trash. Throughout college days, he got through by picking trash and doing menial jobs. The clothes he's wearing were probably gotten from a goodwill bin. Because there's no way in hell this trash would be able to afford designers, even the knock off version, unless he's wearing someone's ‘hand me down’. Hurry up and kick him out unless you want to

  • Finding a Survivor

    Alvin had experienced first hand about how powerful, talented and insanely talented the medicine sage valley’s disciples were on this mission. Just fourteen of them could impress him. How about their more than a hundred disciples present back in the valley? And he also never experienced their true skills and the level of their expertise because Murong Wuque did all the hard work, letting them act leisurely. He had not seen them fight with the smell of death clinging to their skins. All through the missions, each person used their individual skills either bestowed by their masters or gotten from their families before they joined the valley, showing how powerful their backgrounds were. Those kinds of people were definitely no pushovers, the valley was extremely selective when accepting disciples. In addition, none of them used their strongest weapons—poison. The disciples of the valley were notorious for poisoning opponents to death in dire situations. They didn't use it this time be

  • Trail of blood

    They had not landed yet when they realized that something was wrong. Murong Wuque slowed down and tightened his arm around Alvin, looking down at the previous camp. Although they had loosened some of the tents and taken the important stuff, including supplies, they left some tents behind to make it easy for the servants to serve dinner because they were sure to be exhausted when they returned. But right now, everywhere was eerily quiet. Even the horses tethered to trees were gone. No, on a closer look, they were not gone nor stolen, they were killed in a brutal massacre. Alvin's eyes narrowed in a deep frown, he had also noticed the same thing, making him look down. Dead bodies of servants and vagrant cultivators initially meant to accompany them were littered on the ground, their corpses brutalized in a bone chilling manner. The bodies even changed colors, as if someone used an evil art to suck them dry. They immediately landed, and Yang Yang rushed to examine the corpses. Chu

  • finally out

    Alvin brought out two cartons of bottled water and four loaves of bread. “These are supplies I brought along. The water is twenty cans, enough for everyone to take one. As for the bread, maybe four people should share one.” Feng quickly tore open the cans of water and shared it. It was the big size containing 150cl. So it was enough for everyone to wash their hands and faces, drink, and still have more. “I haven't seen this kind of vessel for storing water in the past. And the water is cold and refreshing.” A red haired girl who didn't talk much said, making everyone nod in agreement. “It's from my place. It's not available in this part.” Alvin whispered, and gulped down the water he got. There were still four cans of water remaining on the ground. “If four people share one loaf, then the last will be shared by three people since we're only fifteen.” “Then the youngest should take two parts. The baby of the house should always get the biggest share of food.” Alvin said no

  • complex emotions

    Alvin took deep breaths, trying to calm himself down. “It's fine. I can find my way out without anyone's help. I will just go with my initial plan. At least, I have not set the fire.” He muttered, and turned to leave. Something dangled from his side vision, making him turn in that direction. He saw the climbing rope he gave them to go up, dangling around, making him frown. “Did they forget to cut the rope? Common sense should tell them that if they want me to be completely trapped, the rope must be cut.” He walked to the rope and pulled it, noticing that it was sturdy, probably still tied to the tree. Particles of sand began to fall, and a white fist appeared beside the rope, trying to punch a hole through. “Fellow cultivator, if you're out, grab the rope, I'm exhausted.” He heard Murong Wuque shout as he punched out an additional hole, making it wide enough for someone's head to pass through. Alvin frowned, feeling confused. Didn't they abandon him? Why did they change th

  • abandoned

    In no time, Murong Wuque ran back with the disciples. “How was it?” Alvin asked, turning to him. “Indeed, there were other prisoners, but they are all dead. Also, we found another room where those glasswares containing various liquids were kept. Yang Yang mistakenly knocked over two of the glasses and pink smoke filled the room, we had to hurry out and lock the room. But it's still seeping out from beneath the door. There are also two more of the sealing formation we found in that room; there are definitely evil entities hidden beneath the ground. Also, we found more treasures, but nothing like the room full of treasures we initially raided. Some of the treasures we found this time had the aura of darkness. The black-purple ring we found on top of a Scarlet throne in the room we found the treasures in, was especially suspicious. All the treasures with attributes of darkness were sealed in a wooden box being kept in my possession. I won't give it to others to prevent an accident.

  • Missing the system

    Su Mei looked up at that moment, her eyes filled with tears. She didn't look terrified or suprised by the sight of him. “Yan'er.” She whispered, and tried to reach for him, but her hand passed right through, making her cry harder. She smiled through her tears and took a deep breath. “Yan'er, go well. Do you want me to come along?” He shook his head, his eyes filled with sadness. “I love you, but you can't follow me. Live well here, keep me in your heart, but don't be burdened. If you meet a man that treats you as good as I did, you can follow him and live happily. I will be jealous, but what I want the most is to see you live well, healthy and happy: the things I promised you but failed to do. All my life, I prided myself on keeping all my promises. But the first person I failed turned out to be you, the one I loved the most. I'm so sorry for breaking your heart, forgive me for not giving you the future you deserve.” He whispered, his eyes heavy. He would probably be c

  • THE REQUIEM

    They stepped back and Su Mei walked to the coffin, she took deep, uneven breaths, gasping like she would die any moment. This was the first time she was seeing his corpse since Murong Wuque prevented the girls from coming to see him till he got dressed. “Ah…oh…mmm…” She kept groaning and gasping, unable to form coherent words. She reached for his face, caressing him as she wept. “Yan'er…aaaa… mmm… . Please… no.. Oh… ah… ah… ah.. You… oh… promise… you…” The sounds coming from her lips were total nonsense, incoherent as she cried. Murong Wuque signalled everyone to face the floor and give them the privacy to say their final goodbyes. She kissed his ice cold knuckles, bathing him in her tears as she hugged him, crying bitterly. For fifteen minutes, the girls sang various farewell songs while waiting for her to finish crying. She looked at him attentively, and ran her hands over his body and felt his pulse, each false hope she gave herself about reviving him dashing harder than

  • what's his background

    “Of course not, I have lots of people with me. And our place is quite huge. Let's just say I'm the current clan master of my clan.” Alvin said with a nonchalant smile, as if he didn't think much of it. However, his words made everyone go silent as they all had the same thought. If he was the current clan master despite his young age, it was truly easy to guess what happened to his family. His family must have been exterminated by an enemy, and he was among the people smuggled out to safety. After his parents died and his clan fell, he did either of two things. One, cultivated crazily till he got strong enough to take revenge and return to their original clan to rebuild it. Two, using the scarce resources available to him he found a new settlement for his clan and moved there with the survivors. That must be the reason he cultivated crazily to get stronger, and had a mature aura like their first brother. It was because he had lots of burden on his shoulders, bearing the task of

  • ambiguous feelings

    Alvin noticed everyone staring at him, making him frown. “Why are you guys looking at me like that? Wuque may keep it, I won't fight anyone for it.” Murong Wuque smiled and looked at him ambiguously. “Are you truly sure you want to let go of it?” Alvin nodded, and Wuque smirked, quickly bringing out a bigger ice box from his storage ring. “Ah? How did our first brother get a hold of this box that is used to store ancient treasures?” Murong Wuque carefully placed the box into the bigger one, and placed a seal on it, quickly sending it into his storage ring. “Then I have to thank you for being generous.” “Why are you thanking me? We found it together.” Alvin replied with a frown showing his nonchalance. Murong Wuque smiled, then bit his lips as if trying to prevent himself from laughing. “What's wrong with you?” Alvin snapped, asking the question in the minds of everyone. Like a trigger, the question made Wuque burst into laughter, laughing loudly. Alvin's eyes narro
