Chapter 013

Just when Oscar was about to really go physical with Henry, a soft voice interrupted, breaking the tension.

"Since you both claim to own the car. Why don't you prove it?"

Shockingly, the one who spoke was Goldie.

When the crowd saw that even Goldie was interferring, many of the males eyes blazed with desire.

Henry wasn't an exception. Although Laura was beautiful, her beauty couldn't compare to that of Goldie.

That fairy like lofty attitude had many of the males trippin'

'You would cherish what you don't have'

That was the perfect description.

"Since miss Goldie has spoken, pardon me boasting a bit" Henry gave a fake urbanly bow before flashing a set of keys.

"Whoa! look at those keys! so flashy!"

"They must cost alot!"

"Hmph. Henry is definately the owner of the car. Oscar is just a pathetic clout chaser"

Henry smirked smugly when he saw many people siding with him. It felt so damn good, especially when Goldie, the girl of his dream was present!

"Hmph. What are you still waiting for Oscar? Henry has shown everyone proof! where's yours?"

Thanks to Laura's taunt, everybody's attention fell back to Oscar. They wanted to witness him make a fool out of himself.

"I.." Oscar couldn't muster the strength to speak.

He had just checked his pocket but couldn't find the car keys.

He felt like crying. Gawd! just when he wanted to make a massive turnaround, he ended up striking his own foot.

Seeing the embarrassed look on Oscar's countenance, the mockery and disdain in the crowd's eyes grew even more intense.

Even Goldie shook her head in disappointment. Perhaps, the only person amongst the crowd who believed Oscar's claims was Layla, since she personally witnessed the way Krusty Crab's top management respectfully treated Oscar.

However she too was also confused as at why Oscar would be intentionally embarrassing himself.

"Hmph" Henry snorted with visible disdain.

"Just because you did some basketball tricks, you think you are all that?"

"You want a car so bad? then learn how to drive first. Muhahaha"

Oscar clenched his fist underneath Henry's taunts.

Without saying anything, he helplessly walked back to the campus building.

He checked his locker but couldn't find the car keys. Sitting down, he tried recalling where he last visited. Maybe the car key mistakenly slipped out of his grasp.

Oscar finally found the car key in the toilet. When he returned back to the campus ground, it was already empty.

He got inside his car, driving away.

While driving, he couldn't help but recall the embarrassment he received from Henry and Laura.

"If i didn't mistakenly let the car key slip, all that wouldn't have happened" he blamed his clumsiness.

-[Tsk. What an impulsive idiot] Hunks voice rang in his head.

"What do you mean?" Oscar frowned.

-[If your plot went well and everyone discovered that the car belonged to you, how are you going to explain yourself logically?]

Oscar fell silent. He had to admit Hunks admonishment made a lot of sense. He was so excited revealing his wealth that he forgot the area where he would have to explain how he got them all.

He wouldn't be so stupid to reveal the existence of the system to the public too.

-[I Know you have lived all your life being poor and looked down upon and wants to prove them all wrong now that you have money. It's better if you live your luxury life secretly. Revealing your wealth at this current stage will only attract danger]

Following Hunks advice, Oscar chose to forego his earlier plans on riding in style to campus the next day. He just got the system and wasn't ready to have his innards diced up by freaky scientists.

Along the way, he purchased a scooter, two luxury laptops and a the latest play station. Although he didn't yet meet the 50k daily quest requirement, he figured Krusty Crab would be his next spending spot.

Arriving at his new mansion, Oscar offloaded the things he just bought then freshened up. After that, he placed a call across to Mr. Weymer, who immediately picked up on the second ring.

"Ah, Mr. Oscar.. you called me quite earlier than i expected. Are you not comfortable living in the estate?" Mr Weymer picked his words carefully.

"Hehe. I am quite enjoying my stay. Especially the food from Krusty Crab. It's best quality!" Oscar laughed, while inwardly shocked at the power of money.

Mr. Weymer was a lofty tycoon that his past self could only helplessly look on to and idolize.

Yet, the same Mr. Weymer was treating him so respectfully, all because he was RICH!

"Actually, i wanted to discuss some matters with you. Let's discuss over dinner at Krusty Krab" Oscar said.

"Alright"

After hanging up, Oscar sat down 'lotus position' on his comfy bed. After praying intensely to lady luck, he began drawing the lottery.

He managed to purchase a scooter for $5,000 and the two lap tops cost $5,000 all together. So in total, he spent $10,000!

That meant he made 10 centi points and five lottery spins.

-SKILL MANUAL!

Oscar pumped his fist up when the lottery arrow landed on the Skill Manual. Looks like he had some good luck shining on him.

To his greater surprise, the other four spins made him get four mana fruits.

"Aish. If only i had more centi points" he bit his teeth in regret.

Oscar didn't eat the mana fruits, choosing to store them away inside the system's inventory before heading out.

KRUSTY CRAB..

"Good evening esteemed customer. I am here to lead you to your dining room" Oscar had just gotten in when a beautiful female staff respectfully said to him.

"Dining room? i don!t recall booking one"

"It was done by the estate manager, Mr. Weymer. He said you both have an appointment" a sweet voice interrupted.

Oscar watched mesmerized as Dehliah descended the stairs, clad in her smart office suit.

"Are you here to pick me up? you actually don't need to" Oscar said smugly.

"You wish. I am actually here to pick up a very important guest" Dehliah place much emphasis on her words.

Although he was curious who this important guest was, he didn't have the liberty to waste time since Mr. Weymer was currently waiting for him.

Oscar was able to locate the dining room Mr. Weymer booked thanks to the female staff.

"Ah! it's Mr. Oscar" the other party immediately stood up upon Oscar!s arrival.

"I hope i am not late" Oscar didn't shy away, directly taking a seat, while marvelling at the assortment of dishes that lined up the dining table.

"Mr. Weymer, how much do you know about investment?" Oscar asked.

Sensing the severity of the question, Mr. Weymer adjusted his sitting posture.

"There are different types of investments Mr. Oscar. You can invest in the stock market, currency market, futures market and the possibilities goes on and on. So it would depend on the sector you want to go into. But basically, investment is when you put in money into something, expecting profit as an end result.

"Although it doesn't necessarily ends that way"
