The World’s System Monarch
Chapter 6: Money Talks, Power Walks, and… a Second Heroine?
---
Ryo woke up feeling like a damn protagonist.
Which, technically, he was.
In just a few days, he had:
? Gotten a system.
? Met a beautiful girl.
? Won his first fight.
And now? It was time for money.

[Ding! New Mission Unlocked!]
> Mission: "Hustle Like a Protagonist"
Task: Earn 100,000 yen in one day.
Reward: +1 Intelligence, +1 Luck, New Business Opportunity
Penalty: You stay broke.
---
Ryo scratched his head. "100,000 yen… That’s like, what, 700? How the hell am I supposed to make that in a day?"
---
[Ding! Figure it out. You have a system, not a sugar daddy.]
---
"Helpful as always, system."
He sat up, thinking. How do people make money fast?
Option 1: Become a YouTuber. (Too slow.)
Option 2: Sell stuff. (What stuff?)
Option 3: Stocks or Crypto. (Too risky.)
Wait.
Ryo’s eyes widened.
What if… he flipped limited-edition sneakers?
---
One Hour Later – Sneaker Store
Ryo rushed to the mall, heading straight to a high-end sneaker shop.
A big poster caught his eye:
“LIMITED EDITION RELEASE! Only 50 pairs avaible!”
He grinned. Jackpot.
There was a line of people outside the store, waiting for the release.
Ryo smirked. "Time to hustle."
---
Thirty Minutes Later – Online Marketpce
He had bought one pair for 20,000 yen.
Now, he was selling it online for… 80,000 yen.
And just five minutes ter—
SOLD.
Ryo stared at his phone.
"I just made 60,000 yen in five minutes."
He grinned like a vilin. "Oh, this is dangerous."
---
[Ding! Mission Progress: 60% Complete.]
---
"Alright, just need 40,000 more…"
And then—
A notification popped up.
---
> Buyer: "I’ll pay 100,000 yen for another pair if you can get it today."
---
Ryo’s eyes widened.
I love capitalism.
---
One Hour Later – The Mall Again
Ryo rushed back to the sneaker store… and that’s when it happened.
As he turned a corner—
THUMP!
He collided with someone.
Again.
Oh no. Is this another heroine?
---
[Ding! Congratutions. You have unlocked your second heroine: Aika Fujisawa.]
---
Ryo looked up—
And saw a girl with short brown hair, golden eyes, and a fierce expression.
She was wearing a sports jacket, tight leggings, and carried a gym bag.
"Oi! Watch where you’re going!" she snapped.
Ryo blinked. "Wait. You bumped into me."
She narrowed her eyes. "Are you trying to pick a fight?"
Ryo sighed. "No, but I’ll win if you start one."
Aika smirked. "Hah! You’ve got guts, I’ll give you that."
She looked him up and down.
Then, her expression changed.
"Wait… Do I know you?"
Ryo tilted his head. "Uh, I don’t think so?"
Aika grinned. "You’re the guy who beat up those thugs yesterday, right?"
Ryo froze. "…How do you know that?"
She smirked. "Because I saw the whole thing. And I was impressed."
---
[Ding! Charisma +2.]
---
Ryo blinked. Wait. Did she just say she was impressed?
Is this… my second heroine’s fg?!
Aika crossed her arms. "Tell you what, Ryo. You seem interesting. I’ll be keeping an eye on you."
Then, she walked away.
Ryo stared after her.
Did… did he just passively attract another girl by being badass?
The system is the best thing to ever happen to me.
---
[Ding! Mission Complete!]
> Reward: +1 Intelligence, +1 Luck, New Business Opportunity – "Start Your Own Clothing Brand."
---
Ryo blinked. "Wait. Clothing brand?!"
---
[Ding! Yep. Time to stop reselling and start making your own fashion empire.]
---
Ryo grinned. "Now this… is getting interesting."
---
