Ti had slowed down considerably, guiding Kael's lethal strike.
Elias was horrified by the sudden change in ti.
Its constant flow, reduced to so extent, making it very difficult to move.
Elias tried to set up his barrier and he needed like five seconds to do that; however, Kael's strike ca in a single second.
He saw the cruel blade of the Phantom Edge glimr and vanish.
And what he realized next is a blinding pain, shooting up his chest, heart and brain.
An ear-splitting wail tore out of his lips, accompanied by a wave of dizziness.
Kael observed the scene with a smile on his face... coin fragnts flying in the air, the remnants of it, entering Elias like digital flas.
Elias was Instantly on roasted inside — a look of terror on his face as he died.
> [Target Eliminated]
[ 1,000 CoreCoins]
[New Module Unlocked: Phantom Edge](Permanent)
[XP Gained. Stats Increased.]
Kael stared at the man, whose outer body was gradually turning black due to the digital flas which had roasted him inwardly, as if it wasn't enough that he was struck in the heart by a chilling blade.
He stared down at Elias' hollowed corpse. His intestines had been burnt to nothing. His bones grinded to ashes.
The system however wasn't finished with the rewards. Kael got more of it.
> Strength 5
> Reflexes 5
> Phantom Edge Skill Tree [Unlocked]
> CoreCoin Balance updated:
[3,100 CoreCoins]
> Reputation: 20 [Unknown Entity in Bounty Circles]
> Perception increased by 5%
> Sight increased by 5%
Kael was surprised.
When he had killed the mirror-masked man, the rewards hadn't been this bountiful. In fact, only a bit of reflexes and speed he had received. But now, he could feel it. For the first ti, he enjoys the kill. Not out of cruelty, but clarity. Precision. Control.
The power he felt when he clenched his feet, surges terrifyingly. It ca out raw, trendous and chilling.
He decided to test the newfound strength.
He took a deep breath and then unleashed a wild energy. The insignia of a massive coin manifested behind him and the entire tunnel trembled from the impact.
Kael also trembled, shocked that he had such power.
This ant that — he had to get rich quickly, so that his father's legacy could co alive. Power and money is the foundation to every successful man — an enigmatic one at that.
He grinned.
"So let's see my overall skill."

Kael was stunned.
This ant that when he had awakened the CoreCoin System, that he had been awarded so points already because... the points he had been getting since he awakened the system wasn't even enough to accumulate 50 points in strength or intelligence. It was quite a strange occurrence.
With a sigh, he tried to blink out of the tunnel only to be rendered speechless.
[Shadow Blink had been used up completely, buy skill from the skill Market]
Sigh...
He dismissed the Phantom Edge and watched it crumble into a whirlwind of sparks then, his body blurred in motion, leaving the tunnel and also leaving the slums behind. Most of his drone projections had been destroyed in the explosion but the ones which survived were taken away by the system itself.
Finally, after almost two days of planning the downfall of Elias Vorn he returned to his safehouse.
Two years ago, he had built this with the help of Juno and the other underground survivors. He did not know what awaited him there because he had abandoned Juno after awakening the system.
After pondering on it for a mont, he decided to go with the flow of events — they'd probably assu he is dead and not dare show up here again.
He released a sigh and pulled off his jacket, hanging it on the pole ant for his jackets.
Kael then thought about how to go about becoming a billionaire.
Elias had told him that the CoreCoin System would make him a billionaire, but he didn't just beco a billionaire overnight — he had to make it happen.
So he decided to upgrade his skills.
He naturally wasted 1000 CoreCoins for the upgrade.
And his skill stats changed. But he focused on increasing his intelligence up a notch.

Kael smiled.
Now for the main business...
He thought for a while.
"I could start up a coin market..."
He pondered the more.
"What about an encrypted phone to monitor trends in the market? That might help with investnt."
"Hey system, open Market."
[I'll recomnd OL—Tech gadget. It has high market value and has high chance to predict coin market value]
"How much?"
[1,200 CoreCoins]
Kael was shocked.
"What??? Isn't the price so outrageous?"
[It is one of the best, it has hot market capacity]
Sighing...
"Buy."
[-1,200 CoreCoins]
And then, a strange gadget manifested in his grasp.
He then powered it on and decided to make his first investnt.
