Chapter 3: Chapter 3: Mysterious System Gifts
He was totally shocked by what he saw in the mirror.
It was indeed his reflection, but he could hardly believe it was him.
The man in the mirror was still himself, yet he looked like an upgraded version—like comparing an NPC to a main character in a game.
No matter how handsome an NPC was, it would always pale in comparison to a protagonist, who was carefully designed and sculpted to perfection.
He felt exactly like that. He had always considered himself good-looking, but standing before his current self, he felt embarrassed to even mention his previous appearance.
His ocean-blue eyes had undergone a mysterious change. Before, they resembled the tranquil sea of the human world; now, they seemed like the boundless ocean of a god's domain.
His facial features had been refined to the point where even the slightest alteration would disrupt the harmony of his beauty.
His skin had a rosy luster, as smooth as a baby, and his body had transformed in ways that left him stunned.
He couldn't spot a single open pore, his height had increased beyond six feet, and he could faintly make out the contours of six-pack abs and defined mermaid lines.
After feeling both jealous and appreciative of his own transformation, he finally consoled himself. At least it was still him.
If someone else had received this upgrade, he might have wished for a second transmigration out of sheer envy.
"This is the rhythm of becoming a male god," he thought, before bursting into uncontrollable laughter.
After laughing like a maniac for a while, he suddenly coughed and glanced around in embarrassment.
Luckily, no one had witnessed his wretched display—otherwise, his carefully crafted male god persona would have been destroyed before it even had a chance to form.
He wrapped himself in a bathrobe and returned to his suite, and his eyes happened to catch red cloth under the bed.
He curiously walked towards that and was stunned when he saw that it was actually a woman's underwear.
He hurriedly tossed the blanket aside.
What came into his view was a bright red plum blossom. He stood there stupidly.
After going through his memories, he vaguely remembered a woman stumbling next to him before he blacked out.
At that time, he didn't think much about it nor was he in position to think anything because that was the time he traveled through.
But who would have thought that she would also return with him, and they even slept together, which isn't big deal, but it was her first time!!
Even though, he is in America right now and this kind of thing is very common, but she is his first woman in his both life and he can't just shirk responsibility, even though he didn't remember it.
His conscience doesn't allow it. He has to find that woman at all costs.
He tried hard but couldn't remember anything, he couldn't help but cry without tears, He finally became a man, and he didn't remember anything about the process and even who the woman was.
After thinking about it, he decided to ignore it for now because no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't remember anything.
Because as long as you have money, there isn't anything that can't be done in America.
And by looking through the hotel's security camera, he can easily find that woman and ask her why she had left so early without even him knowing.
Shouldn't she cry and try to kill him for taking her first time? Why did you leave so quietly? He couldn't figure out her brain circuit. So, he decided to forget it for now.
Settling into a comfortable chair, he eagerly turned his attention to the remaining two prizes.
After a moment of contemplation, he clicked on the golden paper.
As soon as he did, it materialized in front of him. He picked it up and saw that it was a share transfer agreement—already signed and notarized. That meant it was legally binding.
Curious, he quickly scanned through the document. The moment he saw the company name and the number of shares, his body stiffened w(ﾟДﾟ)w.
He scratched his head in confusion ¯\(°_o)/¯.
Roch Industries? He had never heard of it. He wasn't sure whether he had just struck gold or received a useless dud.
He just pretended to be shocked. (〜￣▽￣)〜.
It seemed like his acting skills were still good.
The agreement stated that he now owned 5% of Roch Industries. But without knowing the company's worth, it was impossible to tell whether that meant anything.
He immediately picked up his phone and searched for "Roch Industries" online.
The results left him puzzled. All he found was fragmentary information and a simple website without any real details.
He frowned.' A company at this age without a proper website? Even a second-rate startup has a decent online presence. This must be a crappy company.'
He couldn't help but complain. 'What kind of crappy company has the system rewarded me with?'
With no other choice, he decided to ask the system.
He cleared his throat and with great majesty decided to confront the system." Lord system, can you please tell me about this company."
[Of course, Host.] The system replied coolly.
He was speechless about this matter-of-factly reply.
His lips twitched. "Then why didn't you tell me earlier?"
[You didn't ask, Host.]ƪ(˘⌣˘)ʃ
He swore he heard a trace of disdain in the system's tone, but he had no evidence.
So, he decided to forget about that for now.
'The night is still young—ahem! Life is still long.'
[But you don't have sufficient permission to unlock this information yet.]
After hearing the reply, he couldn't help but want to strangle this system.
New novel chapters are published on freewёbn૦νeɭ.com.
What is the difference between this and not telling?
He made up his mind that, if he asked system about anything again, he will be... he will be a dog.
After swearing the poisonous oath, he turned to the last prize.
Given how the first two rewards were, this one certainly wouldn't be simple, even though he currently doesn't know the value of shares, but he believes that it certainly wouldn't be worthless.
He clicked on the gun-and-shield badge, and, just like before, blinding light filled the room before vanishing.
Instead of receiving a physical item, a new system window appeared before him, filled with information.
The moment he clicked on it; the system's pleasant yet mechanical voice echoed in his mind:
[Congratulations, Host, on acquiring Arcanum security company.]
Just like that, all the info he got was that this was a security company.
(╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻
And just like that he forgot the oath he just took.
"Arghh! Are you kidding me"?
"At least tell me something about it, everything aside at least give me something as proof of ownership".
After waiting for a full 1 minute, system finally decided to reply in a same matter of factly voice,
[ Don't worry host, someone from the security company will contact you soon regarding the ownership, as for the information find out by yourself ƪ(˘⌣˘)ʃ .]
After hearing the reply, he finally calmed down and didn't know whether to laugh or cry to have such a system.
