Chapter 9: Getting rich overnight.
" （-""-;) system what do you mean you don't know, aren't you an almighty system"
[ ding..... when the system was bound to host due to emergency protocol system started the resurrection and was unable to properly scan information of the current world ]
" so when I asked previously for you to guide me to strong people you didn't actually know the answer (☞ ᐛ )☞"
[ ding..... system is sorry for the inconvenience but still such a demand would not have been completed even if system had properly scanned the world]
" Let it be just tell me when you will properly scan the world"
[ ding..... host would have to upgrade the system level]
" (￣へ ￣ ) system why do I feel like I am being scammed "
[ ding..... host Is thinking too much]
" The system upgrade takes 10,000 prestige points and I don't have that many points... sigh I would have to delay upgrading the system"
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
The time Ashok was talking to the system others were just waiting for him to respond as he was just standing at his place not moving or saying anything.
Ashok realized he was silent for a long while and suddenly replied, " Oyee kitty cat, what is a grand master, what are masters, I don't know any thing about what you said, I have practiced my martial arts in guidance of my teacher in solitude, I lack common sense of the martial arts world"
The tiger gang leader was astonished but still it was an acceptable explanation as a 20 year old grand master was unheard of in the martial arts circle and him to be a disciple also proves that he is maybe a disciple of a great sect.
" grand master doesn't know well so allow me to tell grand master all about it, It's Uncomfortable, so talk about it while having tea "
The tiger gang's building was huge it also had a floor designated for receiving guests. The attendants brought tea and some snack and humbly presented them to Ashok, no one dared to make him displeased as offending a grand master would make their entire family end up dead.
In this scenario Ashok was sitting like a innocent child not having an ounce of idea what he had done. He just wanted to know who was behind all the problems he has been facing all this time.
" Let me explain, In the martial arts circle strength is everything those who have strength have the say in what happens, the hierarchy from the lowest as apprentice, warrior, master. then the noble ranks starts such as the grand master and great grand master. There are few who have crossed even this stage and reached the state we call as sages. but these rarely interact with the modern world and live a solitary life, every level has three stages beginner, intermediate, and advanced, these are the basics"
"so tell me one thing how can you say that I am a grand master "asked Ashok.
Tiger was astonished to the lack of common sense of Ashok, he replied " Above master are all noble ranks because every grand master is able to gather and store Qi and then use it, and I know that your Excellency is a grand master because of the aura which you released, a martial artist gains aura only at the grand master level"
" why noble ranks don't use their strength, what the use of having such strength"
" About that, it's not like the noble ranks don't use their strength, all the influential families are dependent on these martial artists to stay influential and prosper, but in normal condition they don't make a shot, they only come out on critical times, it's like the saying ' you don't use a sword to cut vegetables' "replied tiger.
" what level are you on"
" I am on the master peak strength, you can also say that I am a half step grand master"
" ohhh hooo..... interesting..... are grand masters rare" Ashok interested in knowing about his current strength asked.
" grand masters are rare as there are only 1 million registered grand masters, every influential family to have success needs a grand master, my tiger martial arts Hall also has a grand master which is my grandfather, my father is has also become a grandmaster recently"
Ashok was puzzled as to why tiger would treat himself soo nicely even after he beat all those disciples of tiger Hall.
" Grand master may I ask of your name " tiger asked humbly.
" .... you sent people to beat me and now you are asking my name.... are you dumb (￣へ ￣ ) "
Tiger was speechless he didn't remember sending someone to beat a person like Ashok.
" I am Ashok Anand, and the reason I came here was to ask you why you sent people to beat me" said Ashok in a way showing his anger a bit.
Tiger now realized what was going on as he remembered Eshaan' s request of beating someone named Ashok Anand . who knew that the person he wanted to beat up was a grandmaster.
Tiger started sweating profusely as he answered " grand master Ashok, I am extremely sorry about that it was a request made to the tiger gang by one of the people which are under our protection, as compensation we agree to accept grand masters demands"
Ashok got the gist of it " hmmm.... now I get it, the tiger gang houses small companies and gets protection fees, I wondered how could a martial arts Hall was such rich".
Ashok wanted to know who was behind all his trouble he asked, " who was the one to make such request? "
Tiger was startled, who asked that runt to offend a grandmaster he also wanted to take us down with him, I need to expel him from the tiger Hall protection. He replied " it was Eshaan Agrawal "
[ ding..... congratulations host for completing sideline task rewarding host with 10,000 prestige points ]
[ ding.... host has subdued 100 high level humans with advance fighting skill and 250 normal humans with intermediate fighting skill, rewarding host with 6500 prestige points]
[ ding.... host has implanted fear in a human with special blood line rewarding host with 1000 prestige points]
Ashok heard prompts in his mind and was super happy as he gained a lot. but as well he was in a very devastated and stated, " what does that guy want from he has already taken away a lot and now he even wants to kill me"
Ashok got up and looked at tiger with a fierce look and said " stop protecting the Agrawal group from now on" after that he started to leave but was stopped by tiger " grand master this much is not enough I will personally compensate you, all the protection money given to us by Agrawal group will be given to you as compensation"
Ashok firstly wanted to refuse but he thought of the mainline task of becoming richest " sigh.... why did I say I want to become the richest, I said that on the spur of the moment, system can I withdraw the mainline task"
[ ding... host removing the mainline task will result in system to unbound and find another host do you still want to continue]
" noooo, nahiiii, nakkko, illle, system wait noo I will complete the task ok "
[ ding.... ok host]
Ashok had no choice he had to accept the money. He handed over his bank no. and soon his phone had a message which read
