《Throne of World》Ch 22 | Idea to earn money
Advertisement
Inside Cottage number 2
Alexander who just returned from the bar was sitting on his bed, thinking about the great idea which came to his mind, while he was drinking with David at the bar.
When he listened to the talk about Long Xie's scams, he thought about a brilliant scheme to earn money and drown the tall long household.
'Heh! You Long family will push my dad's friend?'
'Although Taylor family isn't my own family but my father is sworn brother with David's father and David is my sworn brother. I need to push the Long family down the abyss.'
'If I can't even push a family down, then how am I able to become the throned king of the world?!'
[ Hey kid! That's the spirit! But what's your plan? ]
No one knows why but recently the evil and overruling voice has become the default voice of the World Overlord System.
The sudden voice startled Alexander, but he soon calmed down.
Hey! Can't you speak nicely?! And don't startle me every time!
[ You can't order me around! ]
[ Tell me your plan! How are you planning to push down the tall Long family? ]
Alexander rolled his eyes but still explained everything to the dominant system.
"I'll use capturing the flags method!"
[ Huh? ]
"The Long family stands tall because they are dependent on their dogs in the political field. Then they use scammed money to inject in their businesses and keep them stable. "
"If I can use their dogs and take their money then I can increase my own power as well as wealth simultaneously. "
[ Kid! Don't beat around the bush! Tell me straight! How you'll do it? ]
" I'll hack into their system! Steal some important information! Blackmail and coerce them! Money and their loyalty! I'll get them both! "

[ Hehe! That's a great plan! But are you capable?! ]
" Hey! Don't underestimate me! I was a PhD holder in computer science. Even though I used to research on hardware technology but I know about networks. Not to mention that this world is still far from mine in technological advancement."
[ I really didn't choose a wrong successor! But remember about your current mission. You can't fail it! ]
Alexander was feeling happy just now but was pulled back to reality after listening to the system's prompt.
He was still too fast from completing his goal of reading 100 books on medical science within a week.
'I need to study! But what?'
Hey, system! Do you have recommendations?
[ Before recommending you something, I need to ask you something. ]
Go ahead! It's not that you'll not ask if I don't say yes!
[ Hehe! You understand me well kid! ]
After a pause, the system's voice became more serious and deep, he asked a question that stumped Alexander's genius brain.
[ What is your way of conquering the world? You'll build an army to fight with tremendous blood flow of humanity or fight with wit to minimize blood flow? ]
Alexander started thinking about this deep question.
That's right! What will I do? I haven't even seen blood not to mention killing someone?!
What should I do?
From the time immemorial, great kings needed to sacrifice blood for sitting on the throne!
Can I do it?
I can't see people killing themselves for me… but sitting on the throne isn't easy!
Alexander who was always ready to answer any question was now trapped in a question he can't avoid!
What should he do? Choose killing or minimise blood loss?! Killing with an army means acquiring extraordinary resources and training everyone! Minimising blood meant to acquire otherworldly power to stomp on others!

Training everyone to peak may look difficult and unattainable but acquiring otherworldly power was impossible! This wasn't some novel, but a real-world!
Deep within the head of Alexander, two memories were struggling!
One white other black! Like the fight between evil and right! Like demons and gods!
His soul was introverted, living alone in hell. He didn't need anyone in his last life! He was alone, alone as the moon in the sky! The coldness of the moon didn't care about anyone!
His memories were of a loving lively boy! He had a family he loved, friends he loved and lives he needed to save.
The war between the two was creating havoc inside his head, after fighting for about fifteen minutes, his soul trembled with excitement and other memories inside his head were pushed down.
Gradually everything became silent! Without any motion!
The fight ended!
He raised his head and declared with determination and coldness apparent on his face.
" I'll save anyone I love and are innocent! But will kill anyone who is in my path of accession! "
" So what if people are killed! I'll become strong for me and my people! "
" I'll rise as a king! And sit on 'Throne of World'."

Magriculture
When Aurum Industries announced the first Full Immersion Virtual Reality Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game (FIVRMMORPG if you're hip) Limitless Online, most people saw it as an opportunity to live out their sword and sorcery fantasies. John, however, saw it as the opening of a new and as of yet uncrowded job market. One he was willing, and eager, to exploit. Determined to make money through virtual hard work and effort, John sets his sights not on the heights of magic or the perfection of the sword, but instead upon the tilling of the soil and the sowing of seeds as he explores the wide and wonderful world of magical agriculture all from the comfort of his own bed. Disclaimer: This is, at best, a very rough draft. I have already had to do one major rewrite and several minor rewrites of entire sections of the story, and it is a virtual certainty I will have to do re-writes again. Such changes may be as small as editing a few numbers (such as going back and changing how much mana an object holds) or it may force me to re-write entire chapters (this has happened once already, and I'm really hoping it doesn't happen again, but... life). Minor re-writes will probably never be posted here. Major rewrites probably will.Anyway, what this boils down to is: If you're looking for a fully cohesive story with few to no errors and publisher level editing, this is not the story for you. If your looking for a cohesive plot that's more than "Man farms, man farms, man farms well, man maybe makes money" you're probably also in the wrong place, but I will attempt to entertain you anyway.
