Chapter 4: Bankruptcy

[Reminder from the system. The host only has one day to join a bodyguard association or group. Otherwise, the host will be punished by having the system tak away from him.]

Jad was a little dumbfounded because he was not expecting that the system was going to impose a time limit. After receiving the system the previous day, he did not explore much because he felt fatigued, causing him to come back home and sleep. S~eaʀᴄh the nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

But now that he had wok up, looking at the prompt in front of him, the memories of everything that had happed yesterday appeared in his mind. It turned out that everything that had happed yesterday was real.

After thinking for a while, Jad asked in his mind, 'System, can I communicate with you through my thoughts?'

He was not sure if he could communicate with the system the same way he communicated with others. If he began speaking to the system, others would think that he had gone mad because he was speaking to nobody as they could not see the system.

[As long as the system gains access to the host's thoughts, it should be possible for him to communicate with the system through his thoughts.]

Jad frowned after hearing that. It was clear that if he allowed the system to access his thoughts, that implied that there was nothing that was going to be hidd from the system.

But thinking about his life right now, there was definitely nothing that was of value to be hidd. In any case, the presce of the system was something that was considered to be supernatural, something that could not be explained. Compared to his life, the system was definitely at an indecipherable level.

'Okay th. I think that this would be better considering that I would have better interactions with the system.' Jad thought to himself before he gave the system permission to access his thought process.

[The host's thoughts can be accessed by the system. The host can finally communicate with the system through his thoughts and does not need to speak out loud.]

After reading the system prompt, Jad thought to himself for a while before he said in his mind, 'System, I would like to get information about the mission.'

[Mission: Join a bodyguard association or group. (The host has to join any bodyguard-related association or group.)

Reward: Backg information editing.

Punishmt: System's disappearance from the host's life.]

Jad looked at the prompt in front of him. He could not understand much about it. In any case, the simple description from the system about the mission was simple, something that he could understand.

But the reward that came from the system was something that he could not understand. What was backg information editing? In response to this question, the system prompt appeared in front of him again.

[The host will get information about the reward from the system immediately after the reward is disbursed.]

Jad could only shake his head because there was nothing that he could do. Since the system had decided that he was going to receive information about this thing called 'backg information editing', th the only thing that he could do right now was to focus on the mission.

Jad began thinking about which bodyguard association he was going to join. Within the city, it was not that difficult for him to be able to join an association.

The major bodyguard associations prest within this city held several recruitmt ceremonies. However, there was an arranged day where recruitmts for bodyguards were held.

The last recruitmt had only occurred about a week ago. So, it was definitely going to be almost impossible for him to be able to join the big bodyguard associations. In any case, it was not as if the system wanted him to join the major bodyguard associations.

As for the small ones prest within the city, as long as you possess ough qualifications, you will be able to join them. However, those who were prest within that association would have limited job opportunities. After all, it was not as if those who worked there were actually professional bodyguards.

Since he had be moving a the city all this while to look for jobs, he was quite familiar with the city. There was a nearby place that he was planning to go to right now. If he wanted to reach that place, he was going to have to walk for about an hour.

Thinking of that, Jad wt ahead and took a shower in the m's bathroom prest on the third floor of the building. After that, he wt ahead and put on one of the suits that he possessed, the only one remaining after the last one had be destroyed.

After making sure that he looked prestable, he wt ahead and left the building after eating the rice that he had be giv by the old man.

Since he was walking faster, he was able to arrive there about 5 minutes earlier than expected. Nevertheless, wh he arrived there, he found that this place was kind of congested.

The location of the bodyguard association that he had decided to go to was a place that was quite better as compared to his street.

The buildings here looked quite luxurious as compared to the worn-down ones back in his street.

The building that belonged to the association that he wanted to join was a sev-storey building. It occupied an area of about 800m². The building itself was the tallest in this area.

The building was located in an area that possessed quite a huge field, which was a requiremt for the association considering that from time to time, those who were in the association would undergo training. However, it could not be compared to the training facilities offered by larger associations.

Jad glanced at the trance, there were currtly several news reporters that were prest in the place. They were not the only ones as ev police officers could be se a.

Jad did not understand what was going on. But still, he wt ahead and looked. He was here with only one purpose, and that was to join a bodyguard association. After that, according to the system, he would be able to receive several other missions that he was going to use to be able to level up.

As he approached, he finally understood what was going on through the argumts and discussions that were going on. It turned out that this association was giv a mission, but they failed to complete the mission.

In fact, the person that was giv the mission had actually decided to steal from the family that he was working with rather than fulfilling his duties of bodyguarding.

This immediately caused the association's reputation to plummet because immediately after that bodyguard completed his theft, he left, completely disappearing.

This association was the only place that possessed information on that bodyguard. But ev after coming here to inquire about that person's whereabouts, it turned out that ev this place did not actually possess much information about this person, and they could not bring him out.

In the d, the association was forced to compsate the family that had giv them a contract. It was just that the amount that was required was extremely high, and if the association decided to give the money, they would d up bankrupt soon ough.

As for the family that wanted compsation, after realizing that the company was not going to pay in full, but wanted to pay in installmts, they decided to cause a commotion. Of course, they could have simply gone to court and solved everything quite easily, but still, they decided to come here and make a big sce.

They ev called news reporters, just to make sure that the reputation of this company dropped to the maximum limit. Those who were ke ough would be able to recognize the fact that this might actually be a scheme by one of their competitors.

Jad could not help but shake his head. It seemed that this company was going to completely collapse soon. After all, ev if this company possessed capital, with the bad reputation that it currtly possessed, it would definitely not be able to secure any worthwhile contracts.

That was actually the reason why the majority of the bodyguards in the association wanted to quit. Why would they continue being in an association wh it was not certain that they were going to receive their salaries in the future?

Jad shook his head, although the system had said that he was supposed to join an organization, and had not specified which, he was definitely not going to join an organization like this one.

So, he turned a, deciding to leave this place to go to another place, to try another organization and see if he could join them.

"Young man, wait a momt. I have a good offer for you." Suddly, a tired voice reached Jad's ears.
