Employee 4:

Ge Liang knew he had at least one genius, with a potential of 56 rated by the system! However, there was one problem.... that genius did not respect or like him, as his loyalty was only at 7/100.... and he had one with low potential but 60 loyalty! What a shame.... if only he had a employee with both high potential and loyalty! No matter... At least he could start his route to becoming the Manager of the store! He checked with the system for actions he could take.
*Host, I cannot give you any further instructions, you must do this on your own.* Well, if the system wasn't going to be of any help.... he could check out some of the new features he unlocked after reaching level 2!
*Wheel of Quest Fortune*
*Gacha*
Hmm.... It was quite obvious that the wheel of fortune spin was for the Wheel of Quest Fortune, so Ge Liang decided to go check that out first.
Level 1 Wheel - 1 spin
90% Common 9% Uncommon 1% Rare
Ge Liang decided to spin the wheel. What the hell right, it wasn't like he wasn't going to get any other chances! He was excited to see the reward from such a high end system, even if the wheel just was Level 1.

*DING* *DING* *DING* *DIIIIING*
*Host has received an Uncommon Prize!*
Strength Pill: Increases your strength and physical power related skills by 2 grades for 1 hour, however, user feels extreme fatigue after use.
Yes! What an amazing item! Ge Liang was staring in shock for a moment... With the system's high expectations, 2 whole grades was the difference between a middle schooler and a professional WWE wrestler! Holy shit! Now he could complete that quest about the bullied worker with ease. However, he had 2 things on his mind, the first being that after 1 hour, he would feel extreme fatigue. If he was still fighting in an hour, he would suffer severe problems as not only would his strength boost be gone, he would be fatigued when fighting! Clearly, even with his newfound potential strength, he could not afford to be cocky and blow things out of proportion. The second thing he was thinking was... he could reverse-engineer it! Anything this rare would cost millions, and he would be set for life! Ge Liang's mouth was already salivating....
*Host, you may not reverse engineer the system's rewards. That would be cheating humanity's way to the top of the galactic food chain, and that is not acceptable.*
Damn! It made sense though... if he could reverse-engineer every item he got, then he would become a tycoon in no time! Anyways, he should raise his strength to Trash Middle-Grade before consuming the pill to take on the quest, so that his strength would be at Beginner Low-Grade on the pill, and there was most likely a massive jump in skill between Trash and Beginner skills. Ge Liang was also interested in the Gacha system. He had seen this in games where you'd put money or game money in and randomly get something out!

Gacha Level 1
Available
Gacha Level 2+
Locked
It seemed that the higher level Gachas were locked, so he couldn't view the cost or rewards just yet. However, he wanted to see what the 1st level Gacha had available. After working quite a lot, he had just about $500 on hand, so hopefully it was enough...
Gacha Level 1:
Cost: $100 USD Earth
Rewards: 90% Common, 9% Uncommon, 1% Rare
*Warning: Rewards are far more varied than the Wheel of Quest Fortune.*
Ge Liang gave it a spin just to see what would happen. It spun for a while, then landed on rare! Wow! He was excited to see what a rare item would look like, so he pressed a button to see the item's attributes.
Inspiration Powder
2x Upgrade to Skill EXP earning
6 doses, 1 hour each
Amazing! This truly lived up to the standards of a rare item... Ge Liang checked his attribute page once more to see how he was doing.

Ge Liang decided that now was a good time to try out some of that inspiration powder at the gym to improve his strength! He went to the gym and mounted the bench press machine.
Consume Inspiration Powder: 1 dose Yes/No?
*Yes*
Inspiration Powder consumed. Please maximise the effect by working hard!
Ge Liang thought he looked so cool that he wished he could make a video montage to show to all his friends, but sadly he couldn't. He kept increasing the number of weights to lift so fast that people were shocked. Of course, the system gave him an incredible growth potential so that he could do this.
*+1 Strength EXP*
Later... Heavier... Stronger..
*+2 Strength EXP*
Finally! He could increase his strength by 2 every time he did a set of bench presses. Even the strongest in the gym looked at his growth and the 200+ pounds he was lifting and all they could do was say: "Truly scary. If only I had growth like that..." "Are you sure he's not a professional body builder, come to flex on us?"
Ge Liang left the gym feeling very satisfied and ego-full that evening.

The New World
An AI calling itself Schema has assimilated earth into its system. As a consequence, everyone gained access to status screens, power-ups, and skills. This AI turned these concepts from fiction to fact. It's easy to become intoxicated with leveling up and becoming stronger. To some, it's too good to be true like living out a dream. For Daniel, however, it's closer to a nightmare. He's in a bit of a predicament. Cracks in our dimensional fabric have unleashed terrifying beasts from dark, abyssal places. Schema organizes these cracks into dungeons, giving the native species of the planet a chance to fight back. Daniel finds himself trapped in one of these dungeons. Not long after, he discovers there's only one way out. Kill or be killed. (Note: I am currently editing the story and I'm uploading those edits. It will take time to do this, so if you find a huge shift in the story's formatting, that's why. I'm steadily hammering away at it, but it's going to take time. Thanks for your understanding, if you're offering it.) This is a lit-RPG inspired by the Fallout series of games and the Legend of Randidly Ghosthound. Schedule: 2-3 releases a week of around 3,000 words. I have other fictions! *They're of questionable quality* Here's Monsters Dwell in Men If you want to support me and maybe see other content, check out my patreon: Patreon Here's my Youtube Channel as well, Monsoon117

At The Precipice
Defenseless. Scared. Alone. That describes the life of Brock Carter as of late. Following his ‘death’ at the hands of a vicious magpie, Brock is rescued by the machinations of the newly instated, all-powerful System and thrust knee-deep into a brutal world catered only to the strong. Fluctuating between two states of being and trapped within a city ravaged by time, he is told to either seek out the mysterious ‘Source’, or die trying. He just hopes he can do it without scuffing his expensive suit in the process. ***** Honestly, I've just always wanted to write a story. I had a crack at it a few years back, but the entire thing fell apart before it even began. At The Precipice was originally written as a way for me to destress and play with System elements and characters, but eventually I decided that if I was gonna write, why not post it too? Writing's just a hobby of mine, so don't expect this to be at published novel level, I guess, or even anything of relative polish. Updates every Mon-Tues-Wed-Thurs-Fri Average chapter length is 2000 - 3000 words ***** What to expect: - A semi-comedic/light tone, mixed in with a gritty world and brutal survival (not ever grimdark though) - An MC that thinks about what he's going to do and why he'll do it, even if his internal logic is lacking. Is a rather rational person, not often influenced by his emotions, but can be in extreme situations. - A plot heavily focused upon the MC, but one that will branch off to envelope the other characters in the world at times. Often, it's just other people's perspectives of him. - A story of power growth. While the MC is certainly going to be powerful, even over 100 chapters in from what I've written, he still isn't the strongest being on Earth, let alone the entire Multiverse. - Lots of gore, vivid fight descriptions, and often times deaths of people, some even somewhat important to the story ***** Things this story will never have: - Harems - An edgy, villainous MC - An MC that does jackshit about things for 'plot reasons'

The End
There are five days left. The End is a miracle 10,000 years in the making that will free all from the confines of the world. The gods will soon be born. There is nothing that can be done about this. Not a webnovel, but a screenplay, submitted as my dissertation for my screenwriting degree. Sort of experimental. I have learned that I dislike writing screenplays, but all the same, I thought I'd post it anyway so it's at least worth something that way.
