Chương 16: Buying An Avatar From The System Shop
Terrence looked at Xavier before redirecting his gaze to somewhere else and continued walking. He knew Xavier witnessed what happened with him and the Grandview Basketball Team.
Xavier wanted to talk with Terrence but it was impossible to approach him with his identity. First, he was only a freshman in middle school. Next, he had no reason to talk to him other than basketball but because of the first reason, he could not directly force him to return.
He heaved a sigh as he walked alongside Jayson and the whole class returned to their room. Xavier's seat was near the window so he pulled out the chair and sat down while Jayson gave him a thumbs up.
Only a few moments later, the teacher arrived and introduced herself. Afterwards, unlike other teachers in the morning classes, she began discussing the first topic in the curriculum.
Xavier put his eyes outside the window in daze. He was thinking of a way to use the information he got. Money could help him in forcing Terrence to return to their team but he wasn't sure how.
As if a light bulb appeared on Xavier's head, he finally had an idea. 'Scholarship!'
The math teacher saw that Xavier was in daze and looking outside the window. This action caught her attention and it felt disrespectful for her that he wasn't paying attention in the class. She threw the chalk on her hand and it was directed to this student.
Whoosh.
As if sensing an approaching object to his face, Xavier's right hand instinctively caught the chalk. 'Eh? Who threw this?'
The whole class and even the teacher was shocked when he caught the flying chalk without looking at it. Is he perhaps trying to mess with the teacher?
Xavier's eyes fell on the teacher in front who was fuming in anger. "What's your name?"
He stood up as he politely answered. "It's Xavier, Teacher."
"You don't seem to be paying attention in my class. You must be a genius, right?" The math teacher asked with a sarcastic tone. "Then come in front with that chalk and answer this problem."
The problem written was a simple equation as middle school would only tackle about algebra and other elementary level math. Although Xavier would not brag about it, as an all knowing narrator, it would be of utmost important to know more about him.
Xavier graduated valedictorian in elementary school, middle school, and high school. With these credentials, he was able to apply for Harvard University and he majored in Economics! He also got an MBA or Master of Business Administration.
But now he was only a cute little boy being asked with a simple equation.
Xavier went in front of the blackboard as the math teacher smiled, expecting him to fail to answer this problem. This was supposed to be an inspiration for the first topic of the semester. One needed knowledge for a whole semester to answer this correctly. Even students who finished the semester still found similar problems to be difficult.
However, Xavier put down the chalk on the desk and went back to his seat. Did this student of hers give up with the problem?
Her gaze fell on the blackboard before her mouth opened wide. She was in complete shock as she redirected her gaze to Xavier. "What's your complete name again?"
"It was Xavier Zero, Miss." Xavier scratched his head because of this situation.
Her mouth wanted to opened much wider but it couldn't anymore as she became more shock. Ah, wasn't this student the one the other teachers were talking about? Son of one of the wealthiest families?
She only put on a smile before she awkwardly praised Xavier and continued on with her lecture.
Xavier understood that he was at fault for not focusing on the lecture but he wasn't in daze for no reason. There was nothing more for him to learn other than basketball. Could there be a way to skip these lectures?
A notification popped up in front of him.
Ding.
[You can purchase an avatar and set its name or age. It has a 50% discount from the previous $10,000,000,000 price to only $5,000,000,000 price.]
Xavier's eyes rolled when he saw this notification. Did the system just say it was ONLY five billion dollars? Was the system not aware that in this year the richest man only had seventy three billion dollars in asset?
However, he fell to deep thought as he inquired more about this avatar. 'What is an avatar?'
[This is another identity other than your identity now. This will be legally registered in the country and you can set the appearance as well as the age.]
'But what about my body now?'
[When using your other avatar, the original body will in autopilot and you will know what your body did when you come back.]
Xavier's eyes sparkled as he was amazed by what the system can offer him. There were a lot of extraordinary items that he could buy within the shop. He thought that he had become more willing to buy these items if it would benefit him. (Narrator: Fool, you fell to the system's trap)
He thought it wasn't bad to try and what he could with his child body now was too little. There was still his worries about the Zero Group business if he didn't manage it after the pandemic in the year 2020. How about creating a new corporation that would ally with the Zero Group in the future?
[That's a good idea, host. Please make more money. You haven't deposited a single cent for a few weeks now.]
Xavier's face looked irritated while looking at the notification. However, he would be more at ease if he could do business in the morning and autopilot his studies. Even if he failed because of this autopilot, he had enough knowledge to make up to it in life. He already experienced a lot so nothing could take that experience away from him.
'Please buy it for me.' Xavier decided already about this.
[Purchase Completed]
A blue window screen showed with input boxes for name and age. There was also a default name written with Xavier Zero and 12 years old. An avatar of himself was shown.
He thought hard about what he would name the avatar. How about Rene? Rene Xavi would be a good name.
Rene was French for rebirth or new beginnings. This was his second chance in life and it seemed like all of his previous problems had come to pass.
He entered the name and thought of a good age to start a business. He entered 21 years old and suddenly, his avatar changed to that of the twenty one year old version of him. What a cool system!
Xavier only slightly changed the details of his appearance until he was satisfied of it. This was enough to strike the business world much early on that he would have in the past. He would make sure to protect the Zero Group at all cost.
This was his father's sweat and blood.
He clicked the 'finish' button and concluded the creation of his avatar.
Validating information...
Confirming appearance...
Identity being registered...
[Please wait 12 hours for the completion of the avatar.]
Xavier was expectant of the avatar but not everything was instant. He would need to go through the last class on his own. He could only try the avatar tomorrow or later at night.
He began planning what to do with the avatar. He would need to use his morning for business while return to his body before the afternoon basketball training started. However, he was afraid that his stamina and mental strength would be drained.
[The avatar is a separate entity to you. Although you possess the same mind, once you return to your body, you will only feel the fatigue done by that body.]
'This is great!' Xavier said in his mind.
The system had successfully converted Xavier to a prodigal child.
