Chapter 51 - Chapter 51 – System Upgrade! Prophet Card, Fortune Card!

Henry froze, staring blankly at Ryan for a long moment before finally saying:

"F**k! Whatever you do, don't let any of those human rights b*tches hear you say that!"

"Otherwise, you're in for an endless sh*tstorm!"

To Henry, Ryan's words bordered on inhuman.

But suddenly, it all made sense—why Ryan could take down 93 scumbags in one go without so much as a flicker of psychological stress.

To Ryan, it wasn't killing people.

It was slaughtering livestock.

Like butchers in a slaughterhouse—who kill thousands of pigs and cows a day without losing a wink of sleep.

After dropping Ryan off at the station, Henry took his Range Rover back to the Beverly Hills mansions.

Not to the Swift Estate, though—Taylor had flown off to New York for a concert.

So he went to the Olsen Estate instead.

"Babe, why are you back so late?"

It was already 10 PM.

Elizabeth Olsen was lounging on the couch, fresh out of a bath and with a facial mask on, watching TV.

When she saw Ryan's figure, she rushed over and jumped into his arms.

Ryan caught her butt mid-jump and casually replied, "Wrapped up a case. Starting vacation tomorrow."

Olsen froze for a second.

"You fired your gun again?"

She quickly jumped down and ran her hands all over him, checking for wounds.

Ryan grabbed her wandering hands and said, "I'm fine. Not many people in this world can hurt me."

His gaze grew intense.

Even if he didn't feel guilt over killing those organ traffickers and butchers, nearly hitting a body count of a hundred had still left a lot of negative energy inside him.

He needed release.

His gaze turned fiery as he looked at her—and hers melted like water under his stare.

She had shaved… everything.

Ryan's eyes sparkled. From tiger to T-Rex, in a heartbeat.

After Olsen passed out like an exhausted octopus, Ryan finally began checking the loot he'd earned from this last mission.

Ryan stared at his panel, a little surprised.

He had just taken down 93 enemies. So why didn't the rewards feel as substantial as last time?

Was the system... discriminating against organ traffickers?

He asked the system—and got an answer.

Back during the Blood Revolver incident, even though he only killed thirty-some people, each one had been directly involved in drug trafficking.

That cartel didn't keep idle hands—every single member was moving product or working the streets.

But the 93 members of ISIS (not that ISIS, the fictional organ ring), most were just hired muscle.

They were guilty, but not as evil as those pulling the strings.

Only the boss, the kidnappers, and the surgeons truly had sins worth a massive payout.

So this time, the system didn't give him massive Justice Point rewards.

But what he did get? Still ridiculously valuable.

For starters, 20 Skill Upgrade Cards.

More importantly—three extremely rare cards:

✦ Prophet Card

✦ Fortune Card

✦ System Upgrade Card

Prophet Card: Automatically triggers if a life-threatening event is coming within the next month. Sends a warning in the form of a dream.

Fortune Card: Grants a clue to a major opportunity when used.

System Upgrade Card: Permanently upgrades the system.

Ryan thought for a moment, then used the System Upgrade Card first.

"Ding! System Upgrade Card consumed. Beginning system upgrade. Estimated time: 8 hours."

Ryan smiled.

Perfect. Eight hours—just enough for a good night's sleep.

He pulled Olsen into his arms, one arm more than enough to wrap around her slender waist.

And with that… he closed his eyes.
