Focusing back on his phone, Nathan started trying out a few things.
For example, moving the thatch house from the north to south.
Seeing that it really moved, Nathan learned that he can control the layout of the dimensional space with this.
After that, he continued satisfying his curiosity for quite some time before putting back his phone in his pocket.
At the same time, the wheat he planted also became golden in color!
"Whoa! That's too fast!"
Since this space is Nathan's talent, he can understand everything that is happening inside this place. Except for a few special phenomena.
Because of that, he knows by instinct that the wheat has matured already and is ready to be harvested.
What Nathan doesn't know though is, how could the wheat matured so fast!
It only took 1 minutes!
Shocked, hurriedly approached the wheat.
Wow!
Seeing it close up, Nathan can't help but marvel on the quality of this wheat!
The golden brown color of these wheat is like grains of gold, shining through the fields!
Nathan immediately wanted to harvest it and immediately took action.
With just a thought, the mist in the surroundings automatically harvested all those wheat and placed it into the storage on the thatch house.
A total of 5 units of wheat was harvested!
That was just from one plot!
Right now he has 4 plots where he can plant crops!
Nathan smiled seeing so much wheat being harvested.
This space, it can be said to be a domain of Nathan where he can control everything with a thought.
That's why, if he wants to harvest or move things here, all he has to do is think of it.
So that first effect isn't really useful.
Nathan sighs, still disappointed.
…
After being inside the dimensional space for some time, Nathan exited.
Outside the dimensional space.
Nathan appeared out of thin air in the middle of the park.
Fortunately, there is no one here at this time.
If someone saw him suddenly appearing, it would be quite problematic.
"Aish, I should stop worrying since no one saw me anyway." He looks at the time, "I did not feel the time passing, it's already this later."
After collecting himself, Nathan left the park.
As he's on the move, Nathan is also thinking about what he should do next.
"Hmmm… since I have nothing else that I have to do, I'll just put my focus on making money."
Thinking of things that he has to do, Nathan remembered the remaining mission he still hasn't finished.
He opened the system and took a look at it.
[Active Missions
1. Earn your first million using your own ability in the real world.
Reward: Coffee Shop]
This is the only mission that Nathan has, but for now, he doesn't know how he should finish it.
Looking at it now, Nathan scratches his head with a frown.
"How can I finish this one?... I am currently heavily dependent on the system when it comes to money so…"
Nathan was planning before to finish this mission by just tapping until he earn 1 million, and thought that it would be a piece of cake.
But he noticed that, no matter how much he earn from the system, the mission did not show any progress.
And so, he asked the system and learned why.
This mission, the ability part actually means his personal ability, without relying on the system.
Because of that, Nathan was stumped as to how he should finish it.
At the moment, Nathan is still relying on the system for everything, so he doesn't know what to do.
Heck, if he has the ability to make millions, then he wouldn't live so poorly before the system activates!
Sighing, Nathan waves his hand as he closes the system and continues his walk.
'I should really stop stressing myself too much.'
He thought as he looked at his hair.
'I don't want to become bald from stress.'
…
When Nathan came back to the house.
There was no one.
'Natalie probably went somewhere again.'
Used to it, Nathan did not think much.
Although their talk earlier was still not finished yet, it's something that can be talked about later anyway.
Lying on the sofa, Nathan saw the termite infested ceiling again.
"We should start packing our things already and leave this place tomorrow."
When they left the real estate agency yesterday, the staff told them that they can live there already if they want.
That means it's time to leave this old dilapidated house.
Thinking about that, Nathan involuntarily smiled.
Remembering those days that he lived in hardship, he felt teary.
He almost gave up a lot of times.
But he persevered through it all.
And now here he is, finally able to breathe and relax after going through all the pain.
Closing his eyes, a single tear fell from his eyes.
Just like that, Nathan unknowingly fell asleep.
…
Crinngggg!!
Nathan woke up from the loud sound of the alarm on his phone.
Turning it off, he got up and saw that it's already 2 in the afternoon.
"I did not notice that I fell asleep~ Hah~"
Yawning as he stretched his numb body, he drank some water from the fridge.
Since today there's nothing on his agenda, Nathan just lazes around doing nothing.
Looking at his phone, Nathan opened a social media app and saw a message.
Opening it, he saw that it was Irish.
It looks like she replied.
[Irish: Don't worry about it. So Nathan, uhm.. I actually have something to ask you. I don't know if it's okay.]
"Hmm… what's this?"
Nathan became curious as to what Irish wanted to ask him so he replied.
[Nathan: Sure, just ask.]
After sending his reply, he waited for Irish answer.
But it seems like Irish is busy since she still did not reply after a while so he closed the messages and scrolled through his newsfeed.
At this moment, Natalie got back with a plastic bag in her hand.
Nathan looked at her and asked, "Where did you go?"
Raising the plastic bag, Natalie said, "I just went to the mall to buy something."
Nathan nodded, then beaconed Natalie to sit beside him.
"Come here, let's continue our talk."
Here's your chapter you all!
Have a great day!
And Merry Christmas to those who celebrate this occasion.
