When Olsen woke up, she found herself tightly snuggled in Ryan's arms.
Her back was pressed against his burning, rock-hard chest, radiating heat through her whole body.
Her face flushed pink, her entire being filled with sweet contentment.
"So this is what it's like to have him all to myself—what a delicious bonus!"
Olsen's eyes gleamed with satisfaction, like a little fox who had just stolen a plump mother hen.
"Next time I walk the red carpet, I'm taking Ryan with me. With him around, I'll never be cold again!"
After all, no matter the season, actresses always had to wear flimsy, revealing gowns to red carpet events.
Those dresses? If it could be backless, designers wouldn't even spare a finger's width of extra fabric.
Beautiful? Sure. But freezing? Absolutely.
Olsen giggled quietly behind her hand.
Ryan, feeling the tremor of laughter in his arms, muttered in Chinese:
"小妖精!" ("You little minx!")
Olsen froze.
Her limited Chinese vocabulary failed her—she had no idea what he'd just said.
Before she could ask, Ryan shifted suddenly and pinned her beneath him.
She didn't realize her soft laughter and trembling had delivered a very different kind of message.
Well—she brought this on herself.
—
Later, Ryan lounged in an oversized bathtub, a warm towel over his face, letting the heat soothe his muscles.
Ten minutes passed.

New Feature: System Shop Unlocked!
"System 2.0? Looks like a lot of new stuff unlocked."
"Wait, I have a lifespan of 120 years? Damn—I'm basically immortal!"
"Status readout? Good—now I'll know if I'm poisoned or sick right away."
"Bloodline and Supernatural Talents? So there are stronger bloodlines and powers I haven't unlocked yet? Maybe I'll get superpowers in future updates!"
"The pet egg can wait—I'll decide what to hatch later."
"But the biggest win this time? Definitely the System Shop!"
"System, open the shop!"
A sleek, online store-like interface popped up in front of him.
Weapons, firearms, skills, cards, talents…
So many options—it was dazzling.
"Wait—what? Attribute points cost 10,000 Justice each?!"
"Fk! So the biggest prize from wiping out the Blood Revolver cartel… was actually those five free stat points?!"**
"No wonder this organ trafficking gang, despite having more people, didn't pay off as well."
"Maybe because ISIS trafficked fewer total victims compared to Blood Revolver's drug operations?"
"Okay then… next time, I'm targeting high-damage organizations only."
Ryan suddenly felt like he'd worked his butt off for meager returns.
But then he looked at the newly opened shop interface… and smiled again.
Until—
He wasn't smiling.
Because while basic firearms were dirt cheap—like a Glock 17 for only 10 Justice Points—skills were absurdly expensive.
A basic farming skill? L0 entry level = 1,000 Justice.L1 (Skilled) = 2,000L2 (Proficient) = 5,000L3 (Expert) = 10,000Advanced Skills (L1 Iron) = 20,000!
Ryan nearly exploded.
"I slaughtered a hundred villains for a measly 30,000 points?!"
"This system… is straight-up robbery!"
"It's forcing me to keep wiping out scum to get stronger!"
Ryan realized—for the first time—how lucky he was to be in America.
If he were back in Dragon Nation (China), firing his gun twice in ten days?
Forget ever touching a weapon again.
He also realized how god-tier those Skill Upgrade Cards were.
1 card = 1 level.Whether upgrading L1 to L2 or L3 to L4—it's always 1 card.No extra cost. No diminishing returns.Busted.
For now, Ryan felt his current skills were solid—no need to buy more just yet.
Instead, he'd focus on evening out his core stats.
Balance = power. He didn't want to be a specialist—he wanted to be an all-rounder.
Next goal?
Push all his L3 Expert skills to L4 Master.
With a flood of cards used all at once, several skills instantly hit Master level.
The mental load hit him like a truck.
His brain—stuffed with high-level skills—suddenly felt heavy.
Before he knew it, he was fast asleep.
