All Novel Full Chapter 53 - Stop Smiling
>>Ding*
[You've unlocked the second stage of Tri-Ionization Plasmatic Fusion Energy]
[Be advised. Host should make use of the first stage of Tri-Ionization Plasmatic Fusion Energy before diving into the second stage.]
[System is expecting more creativity from the Host. Don't disappoint]
Emma smiled and shook his head when he saw the last message from the system. 'I'll plan on not depending on you in the first place. I have my pride'
[[Master the train will leave 30 minutes.]]
"Oh, let me have a quick bath."
After a few minutes, Emma dresses in tight-fitting blue jeans, with a white top, joined with blue canvas. He walked into the control room and picked up his Origin bracelet and phone.
"Did I forget anything?"
[[None, sir. Your bag is in the car.]]
[[Should I assign a single UAV to you, sir.]]
"You know the protocol. Where I'm going is not a backward place like Vulture City. We don't know how powerful their Defense system is. If they find an unknown UAV in their air space. It would bring unwanted trouble toward us."
[[I…]]
>>Such a good Ai.
"Zeus, I promise, there will be a time when you will be unrivaled on earth. So, until then, wait and let it develop."
[[Ok, Master.]]
[[But, I will stay with you on your phone. Master shouldn't worry about me being discovered. There are many open channels that I can use.]]
"No problem." Emma accepted. 'When did Zeus become so persistent? I believe is core code is evolving.'
..
A young man entered a first-class coach and sat by the window. Everything in the first-class coach was expensive, befitting the rich. From floor to ceiling, the air was miles apart from the economy class. They can't be compared. The young man sighed. 'It had to be expected. The huge amount can't be for nuts.'
The young man looked around for a few seconds. He saw there were less than twenty people on the coach. A chair for each person while each seat had everything you could possibly need.
'This is good though. The journey is long. So, I can possibly concentrate on my work.'
The young man brought his laptop while the train prepared to depart from Vulture City. Outside there is noise from family and friends wishing each other blessings. But the first coach was quiet, people mind their business. After a few minutes, the Bullet train departed. Noticing the speed, the young man murmured.
"Truly a bullet train."
>> Frog at the bottom of the well…
'Oh, I haven't checked my status after I level up.'

At once, Emma felt the changes taking place in his muscle cell. 'I can't have enough of this feeling. This is refreshing.' He smiled lost in his thoughts.
"Hello, Hello."
What!
….
Emma didn't realize someone stood beside him until he felt a shake on his shoulder. He furrowed, raising his head, ready to snap. However, what he saw was a mesmerizing smile. He froze for a few seconds but quickly controlled himself.
"Sorry for disturbing you." A sweet voice came from the woman while the smile never left her face. She stood proudly waiting for Emma to reply. 'Hmm, what will be his response? Can I hear something new? Not the cheesy ones.
Emma didn't reply immediately. He observed her first. 'A pretty woman in her mid-thirties. Dress in lavish cloth while showing his status. Simple, she is either daughter of a powerful family or married to a powerful man. I can probably use her if we are going to the same place.'
"If sorry would solve everything. While there would be law or cops. Hmm?" Emma squinted his eyes.
Shocked. The woman raised her brow with her eyes widened slightly. 'I don't expect such confidence from such a young man. Most young men that saw me for the first time were either flustered or tried to get on my good side. I guess there is a first for everything.'
"What do you want if you don't want my apology?" Her smile never left her face.
>>When do you get better at this mind game… Hmm? Though I don't know where this is coming from. But I like it…
"Do I look like a beggar!" raising his voice. "I believe this is not the first time you've done something like this shit. I don't care how others react. But you won't get the stupid flatter that you're expecting. So, fuck off!" Swinging his head upward while he turned his attention back to the laptop.
Now, the woman couldn't control her expression. Her jaw dropped, processing what just happened. But she quickly recovered from her initial shock.
With a smile on her face. "I—"
"Will you stop smiling? That smile disgusted me." Emma cut her off.
Now, everyone on the coach turned their gaze at the woman. While some heavily built men in black suits stood up from their seats, the women signal to them to sit down.
'As I guess. She comes from a powerful family. Now, the second plan.' Emma chuckled in his mind.
Ignoring the gaze directed at her. "I'm Lola. I just wanted to be friends with you. I don't know I will get on your wrong side. And I won't smile if that makes you better. Please forgive me." Lola had no smile on her. While her subordinate had their eyes widened.
What's going on?
>>Both of you are good at your game. This is a good show to watch. Who will rip off the other most… I can't wait. This is going to be fun. Eh. Eh!
'Seriously. Shouldn't you be supporting me!' He grumbled.
>>Why would I support a student who fails to recognize me as his teacher. I don't support such an ungrateful student. Worship me then I may change my mind.
'Forget it! Watch and learn how, I, your Grandpa handles it.'
The short conversation between Emma and Lily took a fraction of a microsecond. Since it took place in his head, time lost its flow.
"That's better. I'm Manny. I don't like being touched." Emma looked at her without any expression on his face.
'So that's it. I know you will accept my invitation. Men are the same. When they saw beautiful things. They tend to think with their little brother. Watch as I teach you a lesson.' She sneered
"Can I sit beside you?" Lola asked, not to let her thoughts appear on her face.
"Do you just have to have everything for free… everything must go your way…" Emma looked straight into her eyes. "You thought you finally had your pawn…Hmm. You're naïve for your age. Nothing is free in this world…. Likewise my seat…." He tilted his head to the side a bit. "Hmm, to take advantage of my seat…. Pay 50 "
>>50…!
'Yeah, 50. I can't ask for too much you know'
>>… Speechless
>>You're such a disgrace. I cover my face.
'What's wrong with Lily, is 50 too small. Forget. I've already asked. Gentleman doesn't go back on their word.'
What!
Lola widened her eyes. The shock she received today had been the greatest she had. 'Is it easy for him to read me like an open book? And what is it with 50? So, he's so poor that he needs me to pay $50 to sit beside him. En. I will pay you and I will see how long you will keep this façade.'
Receiving no reply from Lola. "Are you paying or not?" Emma questioned impatiently.
"Oh! I will pay." Lola answered, waking from her thoughts.
"I know a lady of your caliber won't mind paying a pauper like me."
>>Can't you just stop talking… You're making me lose face.
'Shut up! You don't even have a face, to begin with.'
Lola brings forth her Origin bracelet ready to transfer the money to Emma. "Why don't you show me your bracelet?" She raised her brow.
"Do you have such an amount on your bracelet?" Emma was puzzled.
