Chapter 221: RewardsChapter 221: Rewards
Once the Virex Squad Captain left, Leo was blasted with a series of system notifications.
[ System Notification – Congratulations player ‘TheBoss’ on completing the Emergency Quest ‘Don’t Get Caught’
Note- The player has successfully fooled the authorities into believing that he has played no role in the on-going crimes and is free of preliminary suspicion.
The crisis has been successfully averted for now.

A series of system notifications completely covered Leo’s player screen once the Virex Squad Members left his room.
*Pant*
*Pant*
*Pant*
Putting one hand over his heart, Leo finally allowed himself to melt into a puddle of nerves as he began breathing heavily and feeling the racing heartbeat in his chest.
He had been very nervous about not making any mistake, however, his anxiety only shot through the roof when the Virex Squad Captain asked him about Ben Faulkner.
At that moment Leo felt as if he was done for, as he saw no ‘right answer’ for that question and only said what he genuinely felt was true.
Somehow, it seemed to have worked as the system notifications in front of him were proof that he had successfully saved his gaming career, at least for now.
“Fuck, this chain of events sapped atleast a months worth of life from me….” Leo said, clutching his hair as he crashed on to the soft Royal guest bed with a silly smile on his face.
As he reminisced about his spur of the moment choices that he had made like taking a guard down and stealing his clothes, Leo felt like he had truly gone on a wild adventure to somehow clear this near impossible quest.
Today he had redefined the phrase ‘Fake it till you make it’ and the system seemed to have rewarded him with an upgrade to his actor class.

Looking at the last system notification, Leo pressed ‘Here’, as a drop-down menu opened before him.
[ Actor Class (Unique) (Intermediate)
•Unlocked new character panel trait – ‘Second Persona’
Second Persona – Every versatile actor needs to be capable of playing several roles.
It has been determined that the player has absorbed and understood the role of the character ‘TheBoss’ and it’s time for a new challenge now.
While the stats and skills of the player will remain unchanged, a second ID name will be open for selection and system persona will be given to the ID with new restrictions and quests.
•Unlocked new character panel trait – ‘Switch Profile’.
Switch Profile from between your two character profiles, to manage active quests and roles.
•Improved actor class unique skill move ‘Mimic’.
A copied skill can now be mimic’d for a time duration of 7 days.
•Unlocked new actor class benefit – ‘Makeup and hair’.
Automatically change your appearance slightly when you shift between character panels ]
Leo looked at this list of rewards with his jaw wide open.
This class upgrade was completely out of his expectations, as there were major changes made to his character panel.
As he opened his system panel, beside the character ID where he was called the boss, there was a blinking cursor, which urged him to select a second name.
[ System Notification – Please enter your second ID name.
Please note, once inputted this ID name cannot be changed and will be displayed independently on the leaderboard rankings. ]
Leo scratched his head once he saw this system notification, who thought that after spending nearly 10 months inside the game he would once again be given the chance to create a new gaming account.
“Interesting…..” Leo murmured as he decided to choose the name ‘SkyDragon’ since it paired well with Luke’s gaming name ‘SkyLion’.
“S.K.Y…..D.R.A.G.O.N” Leo inputted in all capitals, as he hit enter.
[ System Notification – Player name ‘SkyDragon’ has already been claimed, please enter a different name- ]
“Ehhh? Someone claimed SkyDragon? Why?” Leo wondered, as in anger, he typed the name ‘Leo Skyshard’, but did not enter.
“Haha, I’m so tempted to create a gaming ID using the name Leo Skyshard, it will solve so many of my problems. However, I cannot be dumb enough to do it. I’ll become a walking target of envy within the Arc Ship if I play under my real name” Leo muttered to himself as he decided to hit backspace and delete the name he inputted, however, through sheer fluke, accidentally pressed ‘Enter’.

[ System Notification – Congratulations Player ‘Leo Skyshard’, your second ID name has been successfully registered. Please enjoy gaming with your new identity~ ]
Leo stared at the screen, his eyes widening as the reality of what he’d just done sank in. He looked around frantically, as if searching for an undo button in real life.
“No, no, no, no!” Leo exclaimed, slapping his forehead. “Of all the boneheaded, idiotic mistakes I’ve ever made, this one might just be the worst of them all! Why don’t they make these buttons bigger, or at least ask ‘Are you sure?’ like fifty times?”
Leo wondered, as he began to cry tears of idiocy once he saw the name ‘Leo Skyshard’ flash on his system screen, beside ‘TheBoss’.
He flopped back onto the royal guest bed, covering his face with both hands, as he let the reality of what he had just done sink in.
“Leo Skyshard, really? Might as well have named myself ‘Please Rob Me DAILY’ What’s next? A gaming ID named Leo Skyshard is the boss?” Leo wondered, as he felt extremely dumb about even typing in his name on the keyboard.
