7 New System's Functions

"Sir, I'm sorry to say but getting a house for that amount, and at that location is impossible. I might be able to work it out if you increase the amount, or you choose another location," The real estate agent said, explaining the situation to Silas.

Silas was not disappointed when he heard this. He was not as naive as the real estate agent thought him to be. He was fully aware that what he was asking for is close to impossible, but who said he can't try?

Since he can't get a house, he decided to go for an alternative, getting an apartment. He would have done as the real estate agent said and increased the money, but he can't as he only has a little over $800k in his account.

"What about an apartment? Can I buy or rent an apartment in that same location?," Silas asked.

"If it's an apartment, I think we have something that might interest you," The real estate agent said as he picked up a book on the table, and passed it to Silas.

Silas collected the book and started going through it. The book that the real estate agent gave him is the company's listing portfolio of available properties.

Silas went through the book, flipping its pages but he could not find anything that interests him. All the properties he saw were either too small, too expensive or are too distant from the location he wants them to be.

Just when he was about to drop the book, he saw something that caught his eyes, a condominium up for sale.

"What about this one?," Silas said as he pointed to the picture of the condo.

The real estate agent saw the property that Silas was interested in and started giving an explanation for it.

"This is the most recently listed property. The owner is moving out of the city, so he decided to put it up for sale," He explained.

"Can you get the seller? I want to buy it," Silas said.

"Yes. Do give me a sec, please," The real estate agent said and picked up his phone, started calling.

The reason why Silas decided to buy the condo is because it's somewhat close to Stanford University. It might not actually be that close, considering that it takes an hour's drive to get to Stanford University from the condo's location, but it's the closest property to the educational institution.

While the real estate agent was still talking to the condo's seller, Silas decided to check the system's notifications that he has been putting off.

The first thing that caught his attention was the notifications of new system's functions that was unlocked after it leveled up.

'System store and exchange function… Nice functions," Silas thought as he read the notifications again.

'Wait… I can exchange money for system points which can also be used to purchase skills from the system store.. What if I buy a skill from the system store and learn it, will it count toward me completing the new mission?,' Silas asked himself deep in thought.

The new mission that was recently given to him by the system is something that has left him confused on how to complete it, but the new system functions that was just unlocked gave him an option on how to go about it.

Another thing that caught his attention is the notification related to his rebate. It says that he can now receive his rebates in different forms.

This means that he can receive almost anything through the rebate, cars, houses, anything!

Silas felt that these new form of rebate is better than just receiving cash, but the only thing is that he doesn't know the mechanics behind how the rebates will be given now. That's something he would find out the answer to in the nearest future.

'The exchange rate though… Isn't it too high?,' Silas asked himself.

Even though Silas felt that the exchange rate is high, he knew that he has no reason to complain as he's literarily being given free money.

Though, he felt somewhat sad because the rebate won't be applied to any transactions done with the system.

'That was supposed to be a another source of income,' He said to himself as he thought of it.

Silas also noticed that the range for the reward amount has been bumped up to $200.

From its initial $10-$100, it's now $100-$200. A change that Silas welcomes with open hands.

Continuing further, Silas also noticed that his stats experienced a huge increase, which did not surprise him as he was the one that put in the work.

He pushed himself during his morning exercise, pushing his body to and past its limts to achieve his current stats.

The only part of his stats that surprised him a little is his Charisma, which went from 0.5 yesterday to 3 today. He knew that the massive increase is somewhat related to recent workout session he started, and maybe his new clothes.

'I neglected myself so much these past two years, leaving my body on the brink of collapse,' Silas said to himself, as he thought of his previous body condition.

Silas did not know that his body condition was even worst than he thought, nearing critical. It was with the intervention of the system that he was able to quickly get his body back in the right condition, or he would have really collapsed in a couple of days even if he started exercising.

Silas continued to study his new status screen and he noticed some additional changes to it. Some new columns have been added with some signs in front of them.

Seeing this, Silas could already guess that the sign in front of them is for adding or increasing their points.

Silas would have loved to open the system store and see the good things it has in store for him, but he will have to put it on hold because the real estate agent is already done with his call.

"I just spoke to the seller and he said that we can come, and take a look at the house. That's if you're free," The real estate agent said, as he got off from the call.

"We can go. I'm free," Silas replied.

"Ok then, after you sir," The real estate agent said, as he gestured for Silas to walk out of the office.

The two of them walked out of the office and took the elevator to the ground floor, before walking out of the building.

When they got outside, the real estate agent saw Silas walk towards a black Corvette parked in front of the building, and he was surprised when he saw this.

He could already guess that his client is some rich kid, and seeing the car proved that.

Silas who was unaware of the image the real estate agent has of him, opened the door and got inside.

The real estate agent also got inside and gave Silas the direction to the condo.

After he got the direction, Silas started the car and drove off towards it.
