Chapter 21: Ten-Dollar Note
The next day, David sent Lily back to school and transferred a hundred million into her bank card. He told her to spend it as he wished, and to tell him if she needed more. He even told Lily to disclose small pieces of information to her parents when suitable.
Then he drove his Bugatti Veyron back to River City.
Lake City was around a thousand kilometers away from River City, so David decided to just drive there.
The car was high quality, the highest quality even. Thus, it made sense to be more costly. Coupled with David’s exceptional driving skills, the Bugatti Veyron sped across the passing lane.
David’s car finally arrived at River City’s roads.
He gave what happened over the past two days a lot of thought.
Andy was the one who helped settle both his cousin sister’s accident at Dazzling KTV and stood up for her when she was bullied during the charity banquet.
He might have a boundless amount of money, but money also seemed to be all he had.
He could not rely on other people to resolve his problems forever. Not to mention that Hugh and Andy might even set their eyes on his money once they found out that he did not have a powerful family to support him.
Therefore, what he needed to do now was to enhance his strengths and build his powers.
Thanks to his unlimited wealth, it would not be too difficult to build his powers. His only issue was finding people who were loyal to him.
This took time, but he needed this power soon.
Next, he needed to enhance his strengths.
He looked at the panel and found that he still only had two hundred lavish points. Meaning neither the one hundred million he donated yesterday nor the one hundred million he transferred to Lily today had earned him any lavish point.
Since sending people money did not earn him lavish points, did that mean he could only earn lavish points by buying things?
However, he had earned lavish points when we donated eleven billion to SCC. That donation had earned him the identity of a high-tier member, so it meant that donations could earn him lavish points as long as he had gotten something of the corresponding value spent.
Both his Body and Mind stats were at 50 points, which, according to the system’s description, were rather strong. Since his Body stats had increased from 18 to 50 points, David believed that his current physique should be around that of people who exercised frequently even though he had not tested it yet.
He wondered what would happen if he raised his Body stats to 100 points, 200 points, 500 points, or even 1000 points. Would it turn him into a superhero? This was something he had to slowly find out.
Raising Mind stats sharpened his senses and cleared his mind, so he would have to enhance that as well.
Next was his skill column. There were currently five skills in the column.
He had 10 points each in Driving, Song composition, Lyrics writing, Performing, and Piano skills. These were all expert levels according to the description.
I can now add as many skills to this column as I want, then maybe I can learn the 18 Dragon Taming Punches as well?
[A/N: 18 Dragon Taming Punches = Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms from Legend of the Condor Heroes—but adapted with a modern or comedic twist.]
‘No harm in trying.’
With that, David found a service area and stopped his car to try and learn the 18 Dragon Taming Punches.
‘It’ll be awesome if I actually manage to learn it! I’m so excited, I’m going to become the best fighter in the world!
Add 18 Dragon Taming Punches to the skill column.
Testing panel display...
‘Huh?
‘I don’t remember this happening the last time I tried to add points.’
Just then, David heard a voice ring out in his head.
“The system has not detected the skill ‘18 Dragon Taming Punches’ in the host’s current world. Point addition failed, 10 lavish points will be deducted!”
‘F*ck! I knew it wouldn’t work! It’s still just a novel, after all.’
David had no other choice but to accept reality.
...
Just as David was about to continue his journey, he felt his car jolt forward. David was stunned.
‘What the f*ck, did someone just collide with the rear of my car?’
He quickly got out to look. As expected, he saw a BMW pressed up against the rear of his Bugatti Veyron.
David took a look around. He did indeed stop his car in the service area, so this was the other party’s fault.
His luck was horrible. After losing 10 lavish points, someone had collided into the rear of his new Bugatti Veyron.
He took a better look and let out a sigh of relief internally when he realized that the damage was not severe.
“Hey! How can you just stop in the middle of the road? You’re in the middle of the road!” A woman in her thirties got out of the car and shouted at David.
“Miss, I stopped my car in the service area. You’re the one who collided with my car, this is your fault!” David told the woman.
“My fault? You’re the one who stopped the car in the middle of the road! This is your fault! You think that you’re better than me just because you’re driving a sports car? Who knows, maybe that car isn’t even yours and you just rented it. Look at what your car did to my BMW! I’m telling you, there’s no way I’m letting you leave until you pay compensation!”
Originally, David planned to leave the issue be since it was just a small scratch, and repair fees were not a concern to him.
However, he did not expect to meet such an arrogant person.
‘Fine, then. I’m not going to waste energy arguing with someone like this, I’ll just call the police!
The woman’s loud voice attracted many passers-by.
It was currently the Labor Day public holiday, so there were many cars on the road. When they saw a car collide with the rear end of a Bugatti Veyron, many people moved over to the service area to observe.
“What the hell, that’s a Bugatti Veyron! That car costs at least thirty million! Even repainting must cost a few hundred thousand!”
“So expensive? Since it’s a rear-end collision, the BMW will have to take full responsibility! Even if they sold their BMW, they might not even have enough to pay for the repairs!”
“Sigh. I can’t afford to pay the repairs for such an expensive car. I’m going to steer clear of cars like this in the future.”
“Hey, hey, hey! What are you guys saying? Do none of you have better things to do?”
Once David heard her, he understood that this woman was just here to argue for the sake of arguing.
Soon after, the traffic police arrived at the scene. After viewing the scene and the cameras in the service area, they agreed that the BMW should have to take full responsibility for the collision. At this point, the BMW driver fell quiet.
