The Supreme Satanic System

Upon hearing that he would only have 24 minutes to stay in the city, which was obviously the Blood Research Laboratory, and if he wasn't able to complete the task for which he came here, he would be charged extra and start from square one. So, his parsimonious side got the better of him, then in an instant, Bobby lifted a tonne of the heavy Mr. Baldy over his right shoulder and started running in the hospital's direction.

In spite of the heavy load, he had at least 1.5 kilometers to cover within the time, and his every step made a soft print over the asphalt surface highway of the deserted city as he ran at his fastest speed.

"Ugh, with my current speed, I'll make it there by at least 20 minutes. This will not do…. Fine, I'll try a new skill I have just comprehended recently; consider this a test." Bobby calculated the math in his head and said dis-heartedly. He halted suddenly, placed the unconscious Mr. Baldy over the ground, then sat cross-legged and shut his eyes.

Later, he focused his attention on the Dantian, a small, shimmering pond filled with white, dazzling liquid. Afterward, he made various hand seals with his hands and shouted, "The First Law Of the Lightning Cannon Skill, released!"

Pop!

With a clapping of his hands, he ended the incantation, and soon, ripples appeared over the white fluid inside the pound in his dantian region, and the fluid erupted and began spreading over the rest of his body.

"Aaah!.... Hmph, there is still some minuscule flaw in the current formula." Having not perfected well the skill, he vomited blood, but the next instant he felt fresh energy spreading from within his body. "Woah! This is really invigorating. Now I feel like I can do anything."

He then stood up, picked Mr. Baldy, and placed him over his shoulder. "Alright, let me see if that skill will work while using this." He wondered in his head. Then he made another series of hand gestures and shouted, "The Third Law of the Thunder-clap, Lightning Steps!"

Immediately after casting the spell, all the white fluids in his body were forced into his legs, and as he felt the new power flowing through his legs, all he thought was to run... run... run…

As Bobby followed his instinct to run, his body vanished from the spot with a booming sound and he realized the tall structures around him seemed to collapse backward because of his existing explosive speed. Actually, there was no collapsing of the buildings; he was only seeing the result of his fast flashes.

The first time he ran that fast, he felt as free as a bird, but the next thing he noticed was that the wind kept getting in the way, ruining his fun.

Bobby finally arrived outside the giant infrastructure that was painted in cyan all over. Three minutes and a few seconds were all it took him to reach the building, which he had misinterpreted as a hospital. "Cynthia, is this the place?"

"Aye, aye, my friend, it's the place."

Cynthia's excitement was palpable, and she was a completely different person when they approached that cyan building. "Yo, Bob darling, what are you waiting for? Just go inside. I know that look on your face. It's truly amazing, right? But, hey, time is money here… no, I mean your experience points. So why don't you deal with your shit? And there will be plenty of time here to admire the greatness of civilization."

Bobby looked around for the entrance of the building and there was none, and all he saw were walls. So he asked, "Cynthia, are you still not gonna tell me how to get inside this building?"

"Oh, right, just say the words and it'll be open for you… Remember, everything that exists inside this place has one simple rule," After pausing for a bit, she added, "You. To follow your order at all costs. You are the only boss of this place. Well, I mean within your time in your stay here."

"Oh, that simple." Bobby then glanced at the wall of the gigantic building and said, "Open for me, dear!"

Within seconds, a hollow was visible on the wall of the building and Bobby stepped through to enter.

Inside the building, Bobby noticed that the interior design of the building was somewhat similar to the interior design of his office building, but the difference was that the decoration, lighting, and design of this place seemed so lavish that he felt like he was in a palace during a vacation.

He was fascinated by many things, but he was reminded that the only purpose he came here for was to visit the Holding cell! So without further ado, he said, "Alright, led me to the Holding cell!"

As soon as his voice echoed in the room, arrows appeared on the surrounding walls, guiding him in the right direction. In the end, Bobby made it to the Holding cell after several minutes of following it.

As he entered the entrance of the luxurious jail-slash-sauna, the first thought that come to his mind was: "Oh fuck! It's far more luxurious than I was picturing when I first suggested it... Yeah, this place is a freaking resort, not a holding cell at all, and I feel like I could stay here for years on end."

"Oh boy, here comes again. Will this be another of your freakish behavior, like your miserly side? If it is, then you better shut your trap before you begin your ranting once again. That freakishness once in a day is my limit." Cynthia felt that he was unsatisfied with the lavishness of the current holding cell, which he explicitly suggested. "So, you don't like this place… Hmm, please don't tell me you want your Experience points refunded and a new holding cell." She added, half begging him and half pleading to whatever little faith she still had in her ancestors to not show that hard side-slash-the penny-pinching side of him to her again.

"By Jove! Can you please be positive for a second?" Bobby exclaimed and said his totally different viewpoint. "And by the way, why would I ask for something more hospitable than this place?... You know what? I fucking love this place. For all I can say, 20 Experience points are worth it! Also, I'm not a cheapskate as you imagine, okay? If I knew the condition inside this place, I would gladly spend… um… maybe 50 no, 100 experience points"

It did not convince Cynthia at all and she thought he was just doing lip service and wondered in her mind. "Then shall I test his words?"

"Oh, really?" She scoffed. And then she said, "If you wish, then I can do some adjustments here. Sure, I can change the rate of this place if you insist then, and…. um, I'll add, additional 80 experience points for the cost here. Give a few minutes, it'll be done soon."

"Hey, wait‌! I am not sure you understood what I said." Bobby responded quickly, feeling afraid that she would deduct 80 experience points if he didn't say it right away. "Come on Cynthia. What happened to your statement a short while back that you couldn't get involved in such things? Furthermore, when did I ever tell you to do that?"

"I knew it! A miser and his persimmon seeds… And here I thought I can change you." Cynthia shouted in excitement, proving her points. "Yeah, I get it now. A miser today will always be a miser on his deathbed, too."

"Enough with your ranting, girl," Bobby said in a serious tone. "why don't we come to a proper business now? You knew about Titan stuff. Now we have one. What do you think we should do from now on?"

"Have you forgotten the place you're in right now?... It's only necessary that you do some part as the chief scientist-boss in this place, and that your assistants know exactly what you want them to do, and to follow your instructions 24/7." Cynthia responded enthusiastically.

"Assistants?!... I have my assistants here?" Bobby asked, both in excitement and in surprise.

"Yeah, you just need to buy them with your experience points… If you want to spend more than you can still put some expertise bodyguards as security here in this place." Cynthia replied.

"Oh, so what do I need to do now?" Bobby asked again, as it interested him the most, as he was sure that he would not be present in this place all the time and he needed assistants and some good train expert to run this place while he was away.

Flix!

With the snap of her fingers, a new notification popped up in his mind.
