I just feel a cold, sharp surge of ambition. Look at all these massive, walking bank accounts. According to the original plot of this world, the true Male Lead—the Awakened of Zeus—is destined to enroll in two months. He is supposed to crush all these records, publicly step on Professor Hilbert to prove his dominance, and take all this glory and wealth for himself. I turn off my screen, a wicked smile curving my lips. Not if I strip them clean first. I open the Team Rankings and lock onto my targets for tonight: [Rank 1: Elite Squad 1].

Beside me, Daniel let out a low, amused chuckle, leaning his arm on my shoulder. "Looks like your elite vanguard is having a little identity crisis, Feisty."

My eyes lit up — like a screen flickering back to life after years on standby. I stood up from the chair, hands at my sides, back straight. "Activated. Please give instructions." Mom froze. Behind her, the headmaster explained, "Mrs. Walker, our academy has designed a special system to better teach our students. Each student must be awakened by an activation command. With this command, she will never disobey any of your instructions."

Are you dissatisfied with the company's disciplinary decision? If so, the entire technical division can share the penalty." I hadn't expected him to stoop so low, using my team as leverage to force my submission. And with one of my team members urgently needing money, I couldn't let him suffer because of my refusal to bow.

A notification alert akin to a school buzzer rang inside her head, signaling the system's sudden issuance of an official or side task.

She had been awake since five, running through the board meeting structure in her mind, mapping the angles, identifying the weaknesses in their position and the strengths they had not yet fully deployed.

I choked. “Remember,” Rowan whispered inside my skull, soft as rot. “One week. Bring Darius to me… or watch yourself become the weapon you swore you’d never be.” A final jolt came then.
