《Round Two》Chapter 5 - Not The Point
Advertisement
Leo takes out his phone to look at his notifications.
You have received 500 work points. Total 600 work points.
Leo raises an eyebrow. Work points? What's that? He asks himself. He quickly navigates to the Black Star app to explore it a bit.
Welcome to the Black Star app! Here, on the Summary Page, you can find you work point balance and your work point credit, as well as your ongoing jobs and your rewards.
You may earn work points by accepting job requests on the Job Board or by completing automatically assigned jobs.
Work points can be spent in in the Reward Store! Remember, we work hard, we play hard, so continue to try your best!
Also, if you had questions about your identity, those details can be found in the Identity Tab. Your name, background, banking information, and credentials can all be found there.
If you have any questions, please refer to our F.A.Q. on our website or contact support.
Leo lets out a sigh. Fuck, it’s like a game. He thinks before navigating to the reward store.
Leo’s eyes widen. Fuck! 50 points just to enjoy coffee!? 100 points to enjoy a pack of cigarettes!? 300 points to get drunk!? You’ve got to be kidding me! Leo exclaims as he reads through the various rewards. Leo’s eyes continue to widen. “Holy fucking shit! 1000 points to go to sleep!? You got to be fucking kidding me!” Leo exclaims out loud.
And how many points did I just get for getting stabbed!? Just 500 points!? You bitch! Leo continues to exclaim.
Leo continues to scroll when suddenly he raises an eyebrow. What the fuck is this? Artistic Ability? Is that something you can buy? Wait there’s more… Wing Chun Quan? Tai Chi Quan? You can buy martial arts skills? That doesn’t sound right. Wait. What the fuck is this. The Art of Witchcraft? Foundational Magic? Are you fucking serious? Leo thinks with disbelief before forcing his eyes off the phone. Am I high or did this thing just say I can buy magic abilities? He asks himself before shaking his head. I’m not even going to worry about that right now. For now I’m just worried about how I’m going to get to sleep. He thinks before deciding to look for a job.

Hmm… Approve a bank loan? 3000 work points? Requirements… Must be employed as a Loan Officer or in a similar position. What the fuck? Leo thinks before going into the details. The business product is irrelevant. But this person’s idea for a business has a high potential for creating plot points. Plot points? What the fuck is that? Leo thinks before rubbing his head. He had a feeling that the world worked in a much weirder way than he initially assumed. Also, I have to be employed by a bank for this? That’s messed up. It’s so much effort just to complete a job. Leo thinks before deciding to check out his identity details. Who knew he could have a degree he didn’t know about.
Hmm… I have a College Diploma for System Administration and Network Infrastructure, and a few vendor certifications. That sounds about right. He thinks as he rubs his chin. It pretty much matched what Leo was doing in his previous life. Hmm. My banking details… Leo thinks with a mischievous grin. He looked a child on Christmas, waiting to open his presents.
Leo quickly finds his banking app and enters his information. Leo’s eyes are drawn to the number in the account, and his grin begins to spread until it looked creepy. Hehehe. You assholes. You actually did it. You left a million dollars in my account. Do you treat all the newbies so well? Leo thinks like he just got away with doing something illegal. Well, I guess money’s not the point of the game anymore. Surviving isn’t really it either… Leo thinks as mind is drawn back to the rewards store. It seems the goals and aspirations of this life can reach much higher than I previously thought… Leo thinks as he thought about the possibilities.
