They called me Lu Siyan—the cold CEO, the aloof husband of the villainess in some overused female lead novel. But I wasn’t some extra. I wasn’t here to play along. And no, it’s really not because I got thrown out of the office that I ran off to the slums. I just didn’t feel like bowing to a world that already scripted my failure. With nothing but a borrowed suit and a fake ID, I built a company out of lies, sweat, and caffeine. My first batch of employees? Kidnapped—well, hunted—from a third-rate college using a plastic gun. The principal, oddly impressed, muttered, “At least he’s increasing our employment rate…” The office was a mess, so I made it into a simulator. Literally. I built an “Office Worker Simulator” where chaos reigned and productivity thrived. My empire rose from bugs, bugs, and even more bugs. But it worked. Then one day, I saw her—my old boss from my past life, looking exactly the same. Turns out, she’s my biological mother in this world. The same boss who wrung me dry like a used dishcloth… was my actual mom here. I thought I was just born to suffer. Still, a boss is a boss. And a sponsorship is a sponsorship. So I did what any self-respecting fake CEO would do. I made my mom the chairman of my company. And so begins the tale of the slum CEO, the accidental son, and the world’s first “office simulator tycoon.”

How does it feel to lose your parents at the tender age of four? Imagine the trauma, the psychological scars. Now, take it a step further—what if they died right in front of you? That was Kael’s reality. As a young boy, he watched his parents perish while desperately protecting a golden coin. At the time, Kael had no idea of its significance. He only knew that their deaths were tied to it. Fleeing from his father’s murderers, he was forced to survive on the unforgiving streets, learning to fight, steal, and endure. Twelve years later, he had transformed into one of the deadliest assassins the world had ever known. He had no official title. No known employer. No traceable identity. Just a calling card. They called him The Coin Flipper. Not because he left his mark, but because after every kill—just as the body hit the ground, as the last breath escaped—he would flip a coin. No one knew why. Some believed it was mockery, a cruel reminder that fate had turned against them. Others thought it was ritual. But what they didn’t know was that each coin held power—literal currency of the Core System embedded in Kael’s soul. Every kill earned him millions. Digital fortunes funneled into off-grid accounts with each confirmed target. Blood turned into bounty, pain into profit. And one thing was certain: if you saw the glint of a coin spinning through the air, death had already found you. --- [System Initialization Complete] [Welcome, Holder of CoreCoin.] [Synchronizing Soul Signature…] [Access Level: Alpha Root.]
