Chapter 354: An Unexpected Guest
"System, what do you think is the best way to get back at someone?"
Staring at a list, Lucas suddenly had the idea to ask the system for advice. Truthfully, having lived as a vagabond before, Lucas was quite versed in the art of revenge.
The list in his hand was a compilation of all the major forces that took part in accusing him of terrorism, thereby forcing Lucas to depart from the city. As for how he got access to it, it was a ’welcome-back’ gift that appeared in his mail just a few hours after Lucas had arrived. The identity of the sender was unknown and the information in the list couldn’t be confirmed, but many of them were factions Lucas was already aware of.
"There are many ways to carry out revenge, but the most satisfying one would be to target something precious belonging to the other side." The system’s mechanical voice sounded with a hint of malice.
"...I didn’t really think you’d answer me. Heck, I didn’t think you’d give such an answer." Lucas felt shivers.
"Although the system’s programming had interfered to ensure that the host didn’t blow the matter out during that period, the conflict which led to your departure had affected the system’s advancement progress and your growth. Also, as the successor to the Crafts-God, the body is expected to reward good tenfold, and every evil one hundredfold."
"Yeah, but murder is off the line." Lucas retorted.
Even though he had the temporary licence from Trundel City’s EVL branch, it wasn’t something that could give him a free pass to murder or violence.
"The system never implied murder as an option."
"Then...?"
Lucas suddenly stared more intensely at the list.
Some of the names on the list were the top four families including the Mertens family. There were also top companies like the Novanio Tech, the Oder family’s Prestige Star Ltd., and the Thebes Corporation.
