Chapter 21: Rabid Dog
After a while Gary felt fine enough to be able to walk on his own, yet he didn’t kno to tell Kai that His upperclass hie for Gary to recover this fast After the fight he had, it wouldn’t be too surprising if it would take a week to recover Without any better idea, Gary just continued to play the role of an exhausted fighter
‘I really need to find a way to control this power Whenever my heart rate rises my whole body feels…different, and then soon after when it’s all over I get to a low point’
By low Gary was referring to his Energy value which would deplete after a while and in his actual status he had used a lot of Energy points for healing as well that seemed to affect him
Eventually Kai arrived at their school
“Are you going to be okay getting back on your own?” Kai asked “I’ve noticed you’re walking a lot better”
Gary hadn’t even noticed that Kai had stopped helping hi fine,his cover was blown
“Ehh yeah, I’ll be fine” Gary replied, nervously, his face turning a shade redder for having been caught Fortunately, with how late it was, Kai didn’t notice it… or at least pretended not to
“Good” Kai nodded while retrieving a bundle of cash and placing it into Gary’s hands “Here’s five hundred for today’s fight”
Gary had to repeat the number in his head and he instinctively counted the cash toIt was only a couple of days ago that he had received five hundred for doing thethis ht
“Is this how ?” Gary asked, still shocked, wondering why he had ever risked his life working as a transporter when he could have just becohter
‘Actually scratch that idea! What are you thinking Gary, you would have lost every single fight before getting this System!’ His voice of reason reminded him
“Not quite This is a low level event after all Normally, you would have received between one hundred and two hundred bucks, depending on how exciting your et so on how ht”
“Most of that is due to the bets I had made on you As a newco through Since this was your debut fight and you left quite an expression it see you the otten that you came to me because you were in dire need of money”
“There’s actually a lot s will be set aside as ‘Gang funds’ for the future I’ll keep setting thatOnce our gang has grown into a respectable size, you’ll have free reign over it,” Kai explained casually as if he had planned this all along
“You’ll let ?” Gary questioned His brain was trying to process all that information He had just come out today, to earn some cash, yet his partner in crime apparently had already made plans far beyond that
“Of course I will let you use the money I’d advise you to discuss what to use it for with your future lieutenants, but as the leader of a gang your ill be law” Kai answered nonchalantly
“Leader?! Now hang on aand wantedaboutthe leader of it! Why would you even do that? It’s your gang” Gary complained
“Look, I’ve alreadyneeds a certain type of leader, and I think you’re perfect for that role Me, I will be the brains behind the whole thing, I don’t really like being in the liued
However, Gary wasn’t really convinced by that In school he stuck out like a sore thumb, not to mention all the fancy jewelry and expensive clothes of his practically screamed ‘Look at me!’
“Do you really think you havethe unwillingness in the other’s eyes “Just think of it as being the public face of our gang All you need to do for the tier For starters, you ’ ’”
Afterwards they each went their separate ways It had been a crazy evening that was for sure, and it was hard for Gary to take everything in Truth be told, he didn’t take it all in One event was just leading to another for hiure out this crazy system
[Level 2]
[Exp 20/200]
Before Gary had 70 points of Exp and needed 30 ained 50 points of exp, bringing his total to 120/100
‘At least it looks like the exp carries over, but the way quests come up is so random, the only one that is consistent is the workout one and eating food since they’re both daily quests’
