Chapter 13: The Prize

Fortunately after leaving Veronica's boutique nothing interesting happened again, when he got home in the evening Damian was finally able to relax for a while. 

Today Damian successfully completed the quest that the system gave him and as the system said before he would get a reward. 

However, Damian was quite busy today so he hadn't checked what reward he got after completing the quest. 

"System, how can I check the reward from the quest you gave me?" asked Damian who was on the balcony of his and Wendy's room. 

[The host can open the mailbox and view the notifications there]

Damian immediately followed the instructions that the system told him. When Damian called the mailbox, a transparent interface appeared in front of him. 

And there was an unread message there Damian clicked on the message and he heard a notification start buzzing inside his head. 

[Congratulations! Host successfully completed the Quest. System will send the Host a reward soon!]

Damian frowned as he was still not told what reward he would receive this time. 

However, when Damian had just thought that and was about to speak up to ask the system again, he heard another notification from the system.

Ding!

[Secret Revenge System has transferred $1,000,000 to Host's account!]

For a moment Damian blinked his eyes in disbelief as he heard the notification, he didn't expect the system to give him such a large reward. 

It was only then that Damian remembered that he couldn't access his account at the moment because he had to go into hiding. 

Damian was confused about how he could use the money from the system if he couldn't access his account at the moment. 

[Damian] Take it easy, Host. The system will provide a new account for you, take a look in your inventory]

Although Damian was confused about what the system meant, he still did what the system told him to do. 

Again, an interface resembling a video game inventory appeared in front of Damian when he muttered the word inventory. 

At that moment Damian saw a foreign object in his empty inventory, he quickly clicked on the item and realized that it was his new credit card. 

Without thinking any longer Damian immediately took the credit card from his inventory. 

"So the reward money you sent went here, system?" Damian decided to ask to confirm his guess. 

[That's right, from now on all the reward money that the host gets will be transferred into the card]

"What a relief. I thought I wouldn't be able to enjoy your rewards because I can't access my current account," Damian replied with a sigh of relief. 

This way Damian could use the reward money from the system to upgrade himself, that way he wouldn't be so easily humiliated by the people of the Clayton family who had ill intentions towards him. 

"Speaking of the system, will I only get money as a reward? Can't I get something else?" Damian asked curiously. 

Although Damian needed a lot of money right now because he was completely left without any money right now, he also needed something else right now. 

[For now it is, but when the host is at a certain level the host can unlock other features] 

Damian could only nod his head at the moment as he didn't really understand what the system meant at the moment. 

Now Damian should be grateful for having some funds to make a move. 

What Damian needed now was to focus on the event that the Clayton family would be holding this week.

Damian would make sure that they would not be able to insult him that easily, at least he would have to humiliate them to compensate for their insults. 

Not only that, Damian will also use this opportunity to approach the Weston family to find information about his family's current situation. 

Until finally Damian gasped in shock when he felt someone grab his shoulder from behind. 

Fortunately, Damian did not hit whoever surprised him this time because that person was Wendy. 

"Woahh, I didn't know you would react like that when surprised," Wendy said with a chuckle when she felt Damian grab her wrist quite firmly. 

Realizing his mistake, Damian immediately withdrew his hand and only smiled faintly in response to Wendy's words. 

"Hey, can I ask you something?" Wendy finally spoke up, as she rubbed her nape awkwardly. 

Damian glanced at Wendy from the tail of his eyes, he was leaning on the balcony railing right next to her. Hearing Wendy's question, Damian nodded his head. 

"What do you want to know?" Damian replied then. 

"How did you get to know Mrs. Weston?" Without hesitation Wendy immediately asked her curiosity. 

Hearing that Damian grinned, he had expected Wendy to ask him this sooner or later. 

"I didn't know that woman was Winona Weston. I was just lucky to run into her," Damian explained while shrugging his shoulders indifferently. 

"Seriously! You're very lucky then, even though I had a hard time meeting her myself," Wendy replied in amazement. 

"Do you intend to approach Mrs. Weston to help our situation?" Then Damian no longer hesitated to confirm this with Wendy. 

"Actually, that is an opportunity for us. But, approaching the Weston family is not easy." Wendy sighed harshly. 

As Wendy looked up to gaze at the stars in the sky, she reached her hand up as if to reach for the stars. 

"It doesn't hurt to try. At least we can get close to them even if we can't ally," Damian replied later. 

Actually, although Wendy did not want to take the risk of approaching Winona, Damian himself had decided to approach the family. 

Inevitably Damian had to find information at this time, even though he had previously asked Roderick for help. 

And there was one other reason why Damian decided to approach the Weston family; he would really hit the jackpot if he could bring the Weston family into his grasp. 

Wendy herself glanced at Damian who was currently grinning, looking very suspicious at the moment in her eyes. 

However, Wendy could not reject the fact that Damian's words had a point as well. After all, there was no harm for them to approach the Weston family. 

Although Wendy herself realized that Damian had other intentions with this plan, for now she would just see what Damian wanted to do. 

Wendy also patted Damian's shoulder lightly, then said, "It's too late, it's time to rest tomorrow it will be crowded here."

"You're right." Damian nodded his head, then pushed Wendy's back gently and went into their room.
