Chapter 3
- Chapter Three
- [The host was found in a critical situation yesterday, thereby making the system to make a drastic decision to use all it power to revive the host.]
- Rick does not understand what the system is saying, he frowned and said. “I do not understand you at all”
- [Like I said, the system is the Spirit of those dead legends in the game, and the host was specially chosen, yesterday the System was suppose to bond with the host, and today you will have woke up with the skills, agility, strength of the dead legends. But because the System found the host on the brink of death, the system use everything it had got to hold the host from dying leaving the rest to the Doctor to perform the successful surgery]
- “So you are saying, having the system right now is no different from not having it” Rick said almost screaming as he was so frustrated right now.
- [No, the host made a mistake, I am saying the host will start from the scratch and train himself to become the best in the world, through daily quest, weekly quest, mission, long term quest, and the system will be there to accompany the Host]
- “Damn, that is very painful, I will have wake up dribbling like Cryuff, scoring like Puskas, creating magic like Maradona.”
- [The host should not be angry, those legends feat will just the beginning for the host in future, all you have to do is listen to system, follow the system advice, carry out every quest, and gain points and bonus, by the time the host know it, the host will be the best in the world]
- “Fine show me my stat.” Rick said, well he already accepted his fate, at least the System does its part, it is what kept him alive, hence he cannot blame it, he only blame himself for falling into depression.
- [Generating host stats……………………… Generation complet]
- Once again the Green panel show itself once again.

- [Right now, the Host is more than pathetic, even the word pathetic will be angry to be used to described the host]
- “Do you have to blunt about it, I know I am not that good, not to this extent, or is the system trying to make me throw up blood?”
- [the System is not trying to do anything, this are the Host stats, it just to show how gruesome the Host accident is, and if the System had not intervene, the host will be dead]
- Rick agree with the System, at least he knew how bad the accident is, mere remembering the accident caused him to have goosebumps, alright I need to developed my stats
- [Generating mission for the Host…………]
- [Host should raised his legs up high
- Reward +5 to all Physical stats except endurance.]
- Rick could not believed his hearing just for him to raise his legs up, how simple could that be, to show his eagerness, Rick tried to raise his legs, and it was then he finally understands why the System gave him such a pathetic mission, it is because his legs was as heavy as a small mountain tied to his legs, it is like he was trying to pushed a train to move, his legs was as heaving as an iron plate, he was using every power and strength that he could summon just to carry that one legs, he was sweating profusely, and all the vein in his body were all visible.
- “Damn, why is so difficult?” Rick said.
- [I told the host already, your body is fragile, and the more you train, the more your body recover, complete the quest and you will understand what I am saying]
- Once again Rick tried to raised his legs, but it was no different from before, it was difficult, he could not even move the legs, finally he gave in relent in his effort, he decided to relaxed. Just when he wanted to say something back to the System, the door fling opened and two familiar people rushed into the room. It was Rick father and mother.
- “Dad, Mom, you are here.” Rick said, off course the panel had disappeared from his view.
- “Oh! My baby I am so glad you are alive.” Theresa (Rick mother) said trying to embraced his son.
- “Stop this woman, he is till injured, do you want to complicate the injury, let him recover first and you will have the time in the world to embrace him.” Tyles who was very aloof said.
- In the past Rick would have fall into another depression seeing his father not in agreement with his mother, but today is very different, he noticed that he does not felt bad about it, in fact he found himself smiling to it.
- “How do you feel buddy?” Tyles asked.
- “Well I am not dead yet” Rick replied.
- “Stop saying that, you are our only son, if you die who will inherit our fortune after we are gone?” Theresa said in a shaky tone.
- “You pretty wounded rough there, but at least the Doctor managed to bring you back, we were shocked when they called in that you are awake.” Tyles said and he move closer.
- “So tell me, did you suddenly become a superman, because I saw the state you are when you are brought in.”
- “Tyles, are you crazy? Does every situation count as business to you?” Theresa said angrily.
- Rick does not even know when he burst to a round of laughter, he said. “Mom, if Dad is not a businessman, we won’t be this rich.” Rick said amidst laughter.
- “Since you are not telling me, then guess I should break the news to you.” Tyles said and he stood up.
- Theresa suddenly result to force and he said. “No, you are not doing that, he is unstable now, and you cannot break his heart with that kind of information.”
- “He will know sooner or later, why not just tell him sooner?” Tyles said, Rick frowned as he was looking at his parent in the eyes.
- “Well son times are hard and it is so difficult to keep up with your constant failure, the board had decided, they will terminate your contract and you are no longer Orion Football Club employee.”
- Rick nod his head, well he did not expect this information from father, but he was not the bit surprised about, it is like he look forward to the information, but was wishing that the information never come.
- “Dad, do you really wish me to be gone?”
- “Oh! You know already that I am not the only one at the club, I am just the chairman just because I own the greater shares.” Tyles said again in retort.
- “Moreover what importance do you have for the club, look at your injury, it will probably takes more than two years before you can be fit again for playing, do you think I can wait that long?”
- “You contract with the club is terminated, the club will pay every outstanding we own you, so find a lesser club who could tolerate your failure, maybe in the future the club might try to get you back, but I doubt that.”
- Rick looked at his mother in the eyes, well both his father and mother owned some shares in the club, Theresa merely gave her own shares to her husband to boost her husband claim as the chairman in the club, hence she still have some say in the club. And when Theresa noticed Rick turn to her.
- “I am sorry baby, there is nothing I can do about it.” She said with her heads down.
- “I understand Dad and Mom, at least I will no longer be the son who put his parent in a tight corner.” Rick said.
- Tyles turned around, he does not understand but he really wanted to say something, but he tried everything he can just to ensure that he does not appeared to be remorseful, he said.
- “Theresa we are leaving, let him rest.” Tyles said and he was already leaving.
- Theresa said to Rick. “We are still your parent, you are welcome back home when you are heal of your injury.”
- “I understand Mom, and thank you, say thank you to Dad for me.”
- Theresa left the hospital trying to catch up with her husband who was already in the car, off course she found Tyles venting his anger on the steering, even his hand was bleeding already
