Chapter 16 - Unusual Systems

With a mental command, a new system screen appeared in front of him. 

Playboy System

User: Sahoy Tahini 

Capabilities: Provides an increase in sexual stamina the more women the user sleeps with. System will disappear once the user sleeps with 10 different women.

System Tax: Physical money; 30 Zen or Inheritance of the user's physique.

'Money is fleeting and I also don't wish to spend too much time or money on gaining muscles.' he thought as he picked the physique.

For a second, he felt like the world around him stopped, but then a stinging pain assaulted his entire body. He hurriedly bit down on his own arm to keep himself from screaming. 

He rolled down on the floor as he struggled with the pain for one whole minute after which the pain slowly subsided. He lay down on the floor silently, panting as he thought about the changes in his body. 

In truth, there was no visual change other than the one inch increase in height, which now officially made him 6 foot tall. 

He hadn't just received the pain for nothing. He also got a tiny bit of new information about how the 'inheritance' worked. 

The concept was simple; he didn't have to train or work out like the others and would only need to consume the necessary nutrients until he attained the complete physique of soldier Sahoy Tahini. 

"Great, just eat to build your body. Oh how great this would have worked in my previous life." he muttered before chuckling and got himself onto the bed before drifting off to sleep. 

The next day, he woke up and freshened up before putting on his uniform. He then headed to the kitchen and saw Adam wearing his trench coat. 

Adam noticed Keith and grinned before showing off, "This thing looks great on me don't you think so?"

"Yeah, but take it off. I woke up a little late so I must hurry." Keith said helplessly as he did not really wish to lie. The trench coat almost touched Adam's ankles and was clearly oversized. 

"Bah, you jealous bastard! You just don't want me to look good."

Before Keith could say a thing, a ball of cloth hit Adam on his face and from the other side of the kitchen, he saw his sister pointing at Adam with a ladle. 

"Wear my lingerie, I'm sure you'll look way better than you look right now." she said as she glared at him and then added, "Just go wear your own uniform, you blind pig."

'Damn...' Kieth thought to himself as he didn't want to interfere and nor did he want to laugh right in front of Adam's face when his wife was scolding him. 

Adam sighed and shook his head, "Haii... these women don't get humour."

Saying that, he quickly took off Keith's trench coat and tossed it towards him before rushing out of the kitchen as a ladle flew in front of Keith and went straight out of the kitchen. 

He scoured through his memories about his sister and realised one thing. 

She was an overly protective sister who'd always take her brothers' side even if they were in the wrong. 

Once he realised this, he felt pity for Adam but silently wore his trench coat and turned to look at his sister. 

"What's for breakfast?"

"Since it's your first day, I've made sausages, bacon, omelettes and I also bought a good cut of beef for you. I'll send your breakfast to your workplace so don't worry about getting late. Just eat this while you go." she said as he gave him a thick sandwich. 

It had a lot of meat slices in the middle and just from one look, Keith could tell that he would have no other flavour. 

"I'm not that late. Don't worry, I'll eat this sandwich right here." he said as he grabbed an onion, a tomato and a bowl of butter. 

Rebecca watched as he tweaked his sandwich and once he was done, it looked pretty nice. In fact, she was confident that it looked better than her original version. 

Seeing her look at him suspiciously, he shook his head with a smile on his face as he cut the sandwich diagonally. He then grabbed another small plate and placed one piece on it before giving it to his sister. 

"Here, I'll get the rest of my breakfast later so let's share this for now."

"No, I'm supposed to eat after everyone else in the family is done eating." she said stubbornly as she pushed the plate away, but Keith shook his head.

"Stop talking bullshit and just eat. No one's here to judge you nor me." 

He then watched her stare at her plate and then she looked up at him, wanting to say no, but he interjected her. 

"If you're not gonna eat, then I'm going work on an empty stomach. Pick your poison, you witch."

Hearing his words, she frowned and smiled at the same time, "I hate you."

"Yeah yeah, I hate you too." he said as he saw her take the first bite and grabbed his part of the sandwich as well. 

The two of them didn't say anything more and ate in silence. Once Keith was done, he washed his hands and walked out of the kitchen with Rebecca right behind him. 

"Your bullets are right there." she said as she pointed to the small tea table in the living room and Keith turned to look at a small wooden box placed on it. 

He nodded and grabbed the box before putting it inside one of his many pockets and walked into his room so he could grab his revolved too. 

He stuffed the revolver into a special pocket which was stitched on the inside of the trench coat by Rebecca for an easy access. 

Once he was done with everything, he took a deep breath and left the house as he thought about the remaining system that he still hadn't given to anyone. 

'Lucky Protection System... of all the three systems that I've currently gotten, none of them really sound like actual systems. Maybe it's because they're temporary, so I guess I'll have to wait until I get the other ones.'
