Jake frowned with annoyance. He couldn't see himself in a mirror, but he knew his eyes had improved. He felt he could easily defeat Bruce, even if he was injured and without stamina.
But all his annoyance vanished immediately.
[+ 50 popularity, +50 positive impression from teachers and the principal, +50 admiration from students, +20 admiration from Lena, +sharingan two tomoe, +10 love from Gwen]
Phew, that was a very good reward for losing!
A school staff escorted him to the infirmary. While they scanned and analyzed him, Jake focused on one of his rewards.
+10 love from Gwen
This was the most surprising and unexpected reward of all. What's more, he couldn't understand what he had done to make her love for him increase.
He had only fought a little. What goes through women's minds to make them fall in love?
Jake didn't even consider for a moment that Gwen was his cousin. And how could he? He had only been in this world for a little over 15 days. His relatives were nothing more than strangers he lived with.
Perhaps they were related biologically, but as far as his mind and feelings were concerned, they were just acquaintances.
The medical staff gave him several liquids to drink with a few pills and then injected him. Maybe it was the placebo effect, but Jake immediately felt better.
After that, Jake spent his time in the infirmary creating his new movie.
He could leave now, but he wasn't really interested in studying, and he knew everyone would surround him after the fight he had given.
His relaxation time didn't last long when a guy 1.90 meters tall entered the infirmary, kicking the door open. He looked in all directions, and when he found him, he looked at him disdainfully and walked towards him.
"Are you Jake Hurkacs?" he asked uninterestedly.
"Friend, I think after the show I just put on, it would be easy to recognize me."
"Come on." The guy didn't say anything else and turned around.
Jake looked at him like an idiot and continued creating his movie without paying attention to him.
The guy seemed to feel that Jake wasn't following him and turned around angrily.
"What do you think you're doing? Come with me!!"
"Why?" Jake asked, not interested at all.
"Because I said so!!"
"Seriously? And who are you?" Jake was starting to get impatient with the guy's attitude.
The guy just clenched his teeth and without a word grabbed him by the shirt and tried to drag him along. But Jake was not an easy target at all and didn't let himself be moved.
The guy turned his head in anger, but what he saw were two red eyes looking at him angrily.
The guy's vision blurred, and his strength left him as he fell heavily to the ground.
"So Derek wants to talk to me!" Jake thought for a few seconds and went to meet Derek in the backyard.
Derek was the biggest bully in school. Not only was he very strong physically, but his parents were also very rich, making him almost untouchable at school.
Although Jake had to admit that the Sharingan was very convenient and useful.
Especially the new function he unlocked after evolving to two tomoe.
Genjutsu.
With a carefree smile, Jake arrived in the backyard.
Derek was sitting on a chair surrounded by his lackey thugs. They all had at least a life force of 0.8 but chose to follow Derek in his misdeeds just to get more resources.
Derek, for his part, had the surprising life force of 1.01 and ranked number 15 in the special class.
One thing to note was that once you have a life force of 1, your status will change drastically. Not only could you practically do anything at school, but you also possessed great status even in society.
The army, the police, and government agencies coveted these students.
After all, the common person was the one who could never cross that limit.
"Well," Jake shrugged, seeing more than 20 guys surrounding him without being nervous at all. "Can I know why you wanted to see me?"
"You should be more respectful to your superiors," Derek said with a hint of annoyance.
"I am," Jake nodded. "To elders and people who deserve my respect. Not to insignificant trash playing gangs in school."
"This son of a bitch!!"
"Who the hell does he think he is?"
Several of the guys around him began to get angry and slowly approach him. But Derek signaled them to stop.
"I'm not here to make enemies," Derek didn't show any anger, taking out a small package from his pocket and throwing it to Jake. "I just need you to sprinkle some of this powder in Lana's food when your family eats."
Jake picked up the package and examined it.
"If you do it all right, I'll give you 10,000 star coins as a reward. How about it? A win-win." Derek said with his arms outstretched and a smile.
"Do you want me to poison my cousin?" Jake raised an eyebrow.
Derek celebrated internally to see that Jake hadn't reacted with anger.
"Not really, it's a very special drug but it's not poison." Derek gave a lecherous smile and continued. "Besides, your life in your family is not perfect. All the family resources are handed over to Lena and Gwen, so you'll never be successful. Now I'll give you the chance to succeed, what do you say?"
Jake smiled. It's not like he really considered cooperating with Derek; he just wanted to satisfy his curiosity.
"I say...No."
Jake's eyes turned red, and one by one, the guys started falling unconscious to the ground.
Soon only Jake and Derek were standing.
But Derek's eyes were unfocused, staring into nothingness.
"How much money do you have in your accounts?" Jake asked.
"132,000 star coins," Derek replied robotically.
Phew, what a fortune!
Jake raised his arm and showed his tattoo. "Transfer everything to my account."
"Yes."
Derek transferred the money, and Jake made him forget it, also erasing the transaction and even their entire conversation.
"Tell me, Derek, how many girls have you ruined with your schemes?"
"Many."
"How many?" Jake asked again.
"53."
Damn bastard!
Taking the package he had received from him, Jake opened Derek's mouth and made him swallow the entire package.
Take a taste of your own medicine.
...
On the way home, Jake couldn't help but feel happy. Just when he needed money, a bastard came along to give him his.
