"What the f*ck! Who said that?" I exclaimed, but then looking around me, there was nobody who could have whispered to me and the voice seemed to have somehow come from inside my head.
[I repeat. You have awakened the Gangster System!] a robotic voice announced.
Calming down and seeing that the surrounding people had glanced over at me as if I was crazy after suddenly freaking out, I began quickly walking away, slightly embarrassed.
[The Gangster System is a system that will guide the host to becoming the Greatest Gangster, and after meeting the criteria, you have become the temporary host of the system] the voice added.
I thought that maybe I was going crazy and such a thing couldn't possibly exist, but I had nothing to lose from attempting to respond to it.
"Is this real? And how are you speaking in my head?" I said under my breath, not wanting to speak too loudly and appear to be a schizophrenic to the surrounding few.
[Yes, the system is real and you can communicate with the system telepathically] the voice responded.
Although I liked to keep myself busy with training and working, I had read my fair share of novels in my life and knew what a system was. freewebnove l.com
But who would have thought one would actually exist?
'Okay... What were the criteria that you mentioned?' I asked in my head.
It felt a bit weird communicating with it within my mind, almost as if I was speaking to myself, but it had responded to me, so I no longer doubted its existence.
However, I still had mixed feelings...
-
From the system novels that I had read, a system would manifest based on what the individual desired and sought after the most.
So why did I awaken the Gangster System?
Do I not have other things I am more passionate about than becoming a gangster, like becoming a champion kickboxer or rich CEO?
-
Answering the question I presented to it along with those in my mind, it responded:
[You have the ambition, drive, and ruthlessness needed to be a gangster, but the system sought someone who isn't innately a bad person. A perfect match to become the greatest gangster, as one can never go far without compassion and determination.]
[As for why you awakened the Gangster System, it was because it was what you wanted the most deep down. A gangster has people within their gang that they can rely on and, although rare, loyalty is something that everyone seeks. While you also do not want to rely on the law to solve your problems, so forming a wealthy and powerful gang would solve all your problems. Along the way, becoming the greatest gangster!]
[The greatest gangster must also be skilled in many aspects, which include combat and running businesses, so kickboxing and becoming a CEO are both integrated into this system. So it is the perfect suit for you.]
I couldn't help but smile to myself and maybe fate didn't shun me away and was merely leading me towards a great opportunity.
A system, an entity within my mind that will supposedly guide me to becoming the greatest gangster.
And it isn't like I had anything to lose.
Even if it can't help me, at least I have an entity to confide in and won't be alone in my struggles. fr(e)ewebnov(e)l.com
But why did it call me a temporary host?
[That is because you are only a temporary host. Before you truly become recognised as the host of the Gangster System, you must complete the Initiation Mission.]
[Once you do, the system will be bound to you and our existences will become intertwined. And with the system at your side, all your past and future problems will be solved. For example, your past at your school and with your father...]
'Stop!' I yelled internally before it could finish.
It surprised me that the system could see my memories, but I guess it was unavoidable since it was within me. However, I hated talking about my past, even with my mother, and it was something I definitely didn't want to remind myself of.
And there was something more pressing on my mind.
'What exactly is the Initiation Mission?' I asked, slightly annoyed that the system wasn't just given to me.
[Your Initiation Mission: Crush the small group of thugs calling themselves the 'Black Hand Gang'. Additional rewards for successful completion are dependent on your performance.]
[Basic information on the 'Black Hand Gang': It is a small gang with 11 members that aren't established in the criminal underworld. Their boss has a minor connection to the triad, but nothing else that is significant to report.]
Smiling under my mask, I was itching to get my hands on those fuckers and beat the living shit out of them for all the torment they put my mother, myself, and many others through.
"I guess I'll be hitting two birds with one stone..."
