I calmly asked the system again.
"System, bring out the next gift. I'm very happy today."
[Host, your second gift is a title that will grant you power according to the title itself. These titles are generally quite powerful, so they may influence your personality to some extent.]
"Can't you prevent this effect?" I asked.
[Host, it is actually a rule of the title. But you don't need to worry about it. I will help you suppress its influence.]
"Alright, then don't activate the title now. Let's save it for the future."
Saying this, I took a car and began heading to another place. Of course, this car wasn't too expensive, as this Chinglian isn't very advanced.
[Host, I have some questions. May I ask you?]
The system said seriously.
"Huh, did the sun rise from the west today? You're asking for permission to ask me questions?" I laughed as I said this.
[First question: Why are you driving without a license?]
[Second question: Why did you reveal the location of Siongji Yuk?]
[Third question: Where are you going now? And what are your future plans?]
[And the fourth question: Why did you tell Mujin Jin to spread the word that you killed him? And why did you want this news to spread?]
The system asked in a serious tone.
"Whew." I sighed.
"So, you finally decided to ask. I thought you would ask sooner," I said to it, but there was no response.
"Do you really think an accident will happen if I drive? What a ridiculous question!" I said angrily.
"And if the police catch me, I have endless money. I'll just buy them off and easily walk free from their grasp."
"As for your second question, the answer is simple: I'm keeping the original storyline intact. That's it."
[But this will cause a lot of harm to Siongji Yuk. He will go through a lot of pain, especially with that illness. He might even attempt suicide like in the original story.]
"No one can become strong without enduring pain. Do you think he could become the king of the first generation of Chinglian without suffering? As for the illness and suicide, they won't happen."
[Why won't they?]
"His illness occurred because he was isolated and felt utterly alone. But now Mujin Jin is with him, so there's no need to worry about that.
"And he won't commit suicide either. Before he even thinks about it, Mujin Jin will save him.
"Now I'm heading to the Gangnam District, and I'll defeat all the gangs there. They need to see who the real king of the 0.5 generation is." I said, filled with excitement.
"As for the false news of Mujin Jin's death, I spread that to lure the Zero Generation out of their hiding. Otherwise, it would take me over a decade to find them.
"Any more questions?" I asked the system.
[Host, I have something to tell you.]
"Go ahead, what do you want to say?" I said, opening the window and lighting a cigarette. Smoking has been strangely enjoyable lately, I thought to myself.
[Host, you might be forgetting that there are two systems in this world.]
Hearing this, I looked at the system.
"I know, but the ones who have the other systems are still too young. Should I let them grow up or go and crush them now?"
[Host, it's not Suhyeon Kim or Yunjo.]
Hearing this, I slammed the brakes hard. My eyes widened as I stared at the system.
"Be clear. What are you trying to say?" I asked with a serious face.
[Host, you already know that those systems are being controlled by someone. They are currently in a city in Seoul.]
"Do you know where exactly they are in Seoul?" I asked, staring at the system seriously. But the next moment, I burst into loud laughter.
"Hahaha! You're talking about those weak systems? Don't worry, I'll crush them! Hahaha!" I laughed so hard that tears rolled down my cheeks.
"Before heading to Gangnam District, I want to crush them first. Come on, let's do it together!" I wiped away my tears and said with determination.
[Of course, I'm with you, Host, and I have full faith in you.]
And with that, both of us laughed as we drove through the stormy night, heading toward the distant horizon.
[This is the end of the chapter.]
