Inside President Odetta''s office.


    "Mr Ss, it''s nice to see you. What brings you to my–?" President Odetta had her words stuck in her mouth as her eyes widened in shock when she saw the unknown, yet familiar person that walked into her office.


    "Mr Ss?," She asked, trying to confirm that her eyes weren''t ying some tricks on her, but the smile and nod she got from Ss told her otherwise.


    She couldn''t believe it. How long has it been for him to change so much? What type of stic surgery did he go through to achieve such transcendent appearance? Also, who''s the surgeon that''s to be credited for this beautiful art of work?


    President Odetta remembered the first time she saw Ss and just how below average he looked, one might eveb say repulsive but his appearance improved before their second meeting and again, before their third meeting and their fourth.


    Though the changes in his appearance in their three previous meetings gave her a surprise but it wasn''t to this level. What''s she feeling right as she''s looking at Ss is like it''s someone entirely that''s sitting in front of her.


    Actually, when Ss initially walked into her office, she thought that an unknown person barges into her office without her secretary informing her. She was about to get angry at the person but because she received a call from Ss prior to his arrival and the fact that she believes in her secretary''s work ethic, she controlled herself properly.


    President Odetta was still getting over the shock of the changes in Ss'' appearance when she heard another shocking statement from him.


    "I will be dropping out," Ss replied.


    "M-Mr Ss, what do you mean? Why are you dropping out? Is anything the matter" President Odetta asked, in surprise.


    President Odetta was genuinely surprised by what what Ss said. She didn''t understand why Ss would suddenly want to drop out of the university, neither could she think of a reason.


    Though she was surprised, she expected it as she had thought of the possibilities.


    President Odetta also noticed that Ss'' appearance wasn''t the only thing that changed about him but she also noticed that the aura around him has changed drastically.


    Instead of the naive and gullible aura around him, he now has a calm, confident, and an aura of someone who hasplete control over everything.


    "President Odetta, it''s something personal. Though I will be dropping out, I will still make the donations.


    Actually, I intend to make it in bulk immediately," Ss said and paused, before continuing, "I have already made the calctions. Due to me choosing engineering courses, a five years course in the institution, which is a total of sixty months.


    ording to our deal, I will make a total donation of $11 million monthly, which will bring the total of everything to $627 million and that''s excluding the previous three months donations that has been made."


    President Odetta who had already reverted to her usual self, looked at Ss intently for a brief moment.


    Honestly, she felt disappointed when Ss said that he wanted to drop out. She was partially disappointed because she thought that his decision to drop out meant that there will be no more donations for them, but what Ss said afterwards dissipated that part of that feeling of disappointment.


    "Mr Ss, are you sure about this," She asked.


    She wants to make sure that Ss isn''t making a decision that he would regretter, something she actually doubted.


    Ss heard what President Odetta said and nodded. He knew that there was no more reason for him to still continue his charade with Stanford University.


    The actual reason he did his best to gain admission into the institution was because of the mission he received from the system.


    Though the Ss of then actually had dream of furthering his education, but that dream was before he got the system.


    After he got the system, he still had that dream but after being thrown around by the system and life, his thoughts on his education weren''t as focused as they were before.


    The breaking point for him was when he came to his first ss after he absorbed all the knowledge and information sent to him by LUNAR, and found it to be extremely easy and pointless.


    "Yes, I''m sure," Ss said, and nodded.


    "Ok then, but is there anything else you want me to do for you?" President Odetta asked.


    "No. I will make the transfer before the end of the day. Should I send it to the regr ount?"Ss asked, as he stood up from his seat, with the intention to leave.


    "Yes, you can send it there," President Odetta replied, and rested her back on the chair she was sitting on.


    Ss nodded and left the office. After he left the office, he told LUNAR to make the transfer and that concludes the end of his deal with Stanford University.


    ''Now, the next to do is to take a trip to Venezu but before that, I will har to take care of things at home,'' Ss said to himself, as he walked out of the building and to his car.


    When he got to his car, Ss immediately got in and drove off.


    Back at President Odetta''s office, President Odetta looked at the ceiling, with a strange smile on her face.


    She didn''t know why but she felt like she has lost something very important immediately after Ss walked out of the door.


    President Odetta thought of the first time she met the naive-looking and extremely gullible Ss in a hotel''s restaurant, for a meeting.


    She was surprised and skeptical when he told her of his proposal. She found it very hard to believe that someone so young would be able to fork out a massive amount of $11 million just for the chance to get into the university.


    It was just like yesterday but who knew that the boy she called naive and gullible would be able to pay not just the $11 million monthly payment, but an even astronomical amount of $627 million.


    Totaling the amount that Ss has donated to the institution in just in his short three months of gaining admission into the institution, it would be $660 million!


    President Odetta let out a chuckle when she thought of this.


    "I hope we meet again someday in the future," She said with a smile.


    *****


    After leaving Stanford University, Ss wanted to visit the new house that he got from the system as rebate reward, and check it out but he decided against it due its distance.


    The new mansion is located at Bel Air, Los Angeles, and it would take him almost six hours to get there from his current location.


    Also, calcting the time to get there ande back home to be twelve hours, Ss knew that he would have to scrap his n of going there as he has already promised to pick Alex up from school.


    With nowhere else to go, Ss made his way back home.


    *****


    Ss walked into the house and slouchedfortably on the sofa. He didn''t want toze around the house but he didn''t have anything he to do at the moment, neither does have anywhere to go.


    "Since, I don''t have anything to do. I can use the free time to figure out my ns and detail them out," Ss said to himself.


    He kicked his brain into fifth gear and started organizing his ns.


    Ss'' ns at the moment looks very messy and centralized on one ce, as everything is nned around using Venezu as his base.


    At the moment, Venezu is under clean up by LUNAR and Mr Yusmairobis, and Ss is expecting good news from them soon but he felt that he can''t wait around any longer.


    He decided to take action himself. This is the reason he wants to go to Venezu immediately after they have moved to the new house.


    Also, about his business, Ss only n to release the gacha game at the end of the month, which is in two weeks time.


    About releasing ELLA as an AI chatbot? That n has been scrapped. The initial reason why Ss wanted to quickly release ELLA then, was because he was in need of system points for his ns, but the need is urgent anymore. Also, Ss'' initial n was made poorly and S intends to rectify that soon.


    Ss'' intial n for deciding to base all his business in Venezu was because of paranoia he had about his world, but the reason has changed.


    The reason he ns to base all his business in Venezu is because with him sessfully gaining control of the country, he would get a country with a poption of almost 29.4 million people. That''s 29.4 million potential users and buyers!


    After sorting out his ns, Ss spent the rest of the day ying games until it was time to pick up Alex from school.


    The rest of the day went by until it was night and time to sleep.


    Before going to bed, Ss was told by Kim that she would check out the house during the weekend.


    *****


    The next day, Ss decided to visit the mansion, La Fin, at Bel Air.


    A ck Camaro pulled up at the gate of an extremely luxurious-looking mega-mansion, and a young man stepped out of the car.


    "Wow!! Like what the fuck got into someone''s head to build something as grand as this?!" Ss asked himself in shock.


    He has been calling the building a mansion before but now that he has seen with his own eyes, he felt that the word was too much of an insult to it.


    "I haven''t gone inside and I''m already mesmerized, how much more shock will I receive if I go inside?" Ss asked himself with a smile, and walked to the locked gate of the building.


    At the gate, Ss ced his finger on a scanner beside it. The next moment, he heard a clicking sounding from the it, indicating that it has been unlocked.


    With a dazed smile, Ss watched the gate open up by itself, allowing him to drive in.
