《Monillas: Human Garbage》The Serpent Called Money
Advertisement
"Well, no point hiding it. It's just like you said, all of them are free workers. They have a debt of at least 20 Million each."
"20 Million!?"
20 Million Pesos equivalents to 20 years of Work Years, at least 20 Years of work with no salary! Yanlei prepared a trap for all of them and before they knew it, they're already stuck on it! Like a mosquito being stuck to a spider's web! The moment It got stuck, It's already the spider's dinner!!!
Meaning, all the prepared salaries for the workers have been going to Yanlei all this time. All of them are working for free... they are slaves of their debts!!!
At that time, Jose felt a certain disturbance, he felt hesitant. He doesn't want to die, no one wants to die! But...!!! The mountain of treasure is already in front of him... all he has to do is to jump and look forward!!!
He just needs to jump! Just a jump!!! He just needs to jump and all of that treasure will be his! He could change his life and also his family's, no taking the leap now is a pure absurdity! But...!!! At the same time, It's also pure absurdity to just jump mindlessly without any assurance that you'll actually make it there!!!
Also knowing that all of his workers are free labors made the gap of the cliffs even larger! To the point that you don't know if you can even touch the other side!
Seeing Jose's hesitations, Yanlei sighed and told him something:
"Trash people like you sure are dumb. All of you didn't even try to rise from your positions and just contented to your lives that don't even worth living for."
"Hey, you were born from trash too!!!"
Antonio immediately retorted at Yanlei's statement, but the moment he spoke the words, Yanlei immediately shuts him down.

"I'm not like the two of you, no, I'm not like every one of you. I worked my way up, I tried to rise from that life, and achieved something! I sucked up to my bosses and endured it! I endured every bit of it! Moments where I want to punch someone in the higher-ups, but I can't because my position will be in danger! I endured!"
Yanlei endured all of it! He climbed the spiky mountain towards success! He disregarded the unneeded things and finally climbed the top!!!
"I didn't take any shortcut here, but I'm giving the two of you the chance of a lifetime. The salary that you will get for working in a year will be... 182,500 Pesos!!! But here, you will get 1 Million Pesos!!!"
True!!! A laborer's salary by working for a year will be 182,500 Pesos! In this gamble, you will bet Work Years and you will get 1Million Pesos! Not even reaching half!!!
"A very great deal and all you have to do is win! Win, you bunch of trashes!!! All you have to do is that! If you win, everything will change! Your family, situation, food, your own life! Everything will change!!! All you have to do is win!!! WIN!!!"
Yanlei shouts it and as if shouting from a cave, those words echoed to Jose and Antonio's minds! Win! Win!! WIN!!!
Yanlei moved to another position and removed another curtain. The moment he removed the curtain, lots of suitcases can be seen and all of those cases contain money!!! Almost 100Million Pesos for each case!!!
Seeing all this money, the Poison was entered into their minds!!! The money Yanlei just showed to them, poisoned their minds!!!
"All of this money will be mine if I get it!?"

"I just have to win, right!? I need to win!!!"
They completely fell to the second monster of gambling! The Serpent called Money!!! Anything rotates around money!!! This serpent's effectiveness is top-notch and can never be defeated, not by a normal human.
"If you really accept this gamble, sign this contract. By this contract, even the two of you can't go to the police to sue us for being illegal. It means you really have to work for free if you happen to lose."
Jose was hesitant but the poison at his mind is hard to forget. Once the serpent took It's a place to your mind, It's will be hard to forget it. Like crafting in stone, you might as well break the whole stone just to destroy the crafting. That's why...
"I'm going to gamble..."
He signs it! He signs the contract! After that, Jose returns it to Yanlei. He stares at the contract smirking and making this devil face.
"These guys are all idiots... telling them a dramatic storyline, showing them a large amount of money, just like that, they agree. The line of thought that all of this is illegal didn't even cross their puny minds."

Exponential Mana Regeneration
When the Change occurred, humanity suddenly found itself with superhuman constitutions and the ability to use mana. All the government leaders had known about it beforehand and had made an announcement, so there was little strife and instead excitement to loot the dungeons that the Change had created. Kyle Anders was incredibly excited when he saw his starting skill, called Exponential Mana Regeneration, but his excitement quickly waned when he realized it was almost useless with his starting mana pool of twenty. He had nearly given up hope on being a mage when his family got him a new skill for his 18th birthday. Suddenly, with his mana pool expanded because of the skill, Kyle’s mana regeneration shot through the roof. But while humanity worked hard to loot dungeons and increase their skills and stats, Change was coming, and peace cannot last forever. The story is currently on haitus. (This story is a work in progress. As the first story that I have ever written, the beginning, especially the first ten chapters or so, needs heavy editing. I have decided to continue writing the story instead of going back and editing the beginning. I hope that despite all its flaws you will still find my story enjoyable.)
